RSS date issue

    Hi,

    Validating an RSS feed, gives me the following warning
    This feed is valid, but may cause problems for some users. We recommend fixing these problems.
line 120, column 43: Problematical RFC 822 date-time value: Wed, 6 Sep 2006 07:00:00 -0400 (3 occurrences)

    I guess (but i’m not good at it smiley) it expects the date to be "06 Sep" instead of " 6 Sep" (read ’space’ before 6)

    I tried to give a date format in the ditto (1.0.2) call, but that had no effect.

    Is there a way to fix this?


    best regards,

      PHP date "r" is the standard and accepted format for RSS dates. Which validator are you using? Ditto 1.0.2 does not allow you to override RSS formatting. Ditto 1.1 Beta allows you to change the RSS template accordingly.

        Hi Mark,

        Thanks for feedback. I used http://www.feedvalidator.org/ to validate the feed.
