Just a small question,
I tried playing around with RSS feed block to modify it to show the RSS feed of our community site but for some reason it does not work, it will not take the .xml rss feed. Works great in plain normal IE7. Any suggestions or is this not possible yet ?
Maybe im doing it wrong just finding my way around it 
so forgive my ignorance if i make some mistakes trying to learn and figure it out lol
I shared my modified RSS block it is called VMACNL RSS FEED my popfly name is CyberOps
What URL are you passing to the block? And could you share the mashup your creating with the block that doesn't work?
Thanks!
im using the following url
http://vmacnl.galaxyproductions.net/index.php?type=rss;action=.xml
as a mashup im for now only trying to get the block to work
The block seems to be ok, the RSS feed at that URL contains no items.
In a mashup if you pass the block a URL http://blogs.msdn.com/MainFeed.aspx?Type=AllBlogs the RSS feed is parsed fine.
How do you want to use the block in a mashup?
What kind of authentication does your site use? And would not being authenticate result in a feed with no items or would it result in an access denied error?
You can use your riped block to use HTTP Auth, but depending on your site that may not help.
