Help Developing RSS 2.0 feed
I'm trying to learn to write this xml file so I have a 2.0 RSS feed to mesh with TwitterFeed and their new interface.
So I'm almost there and having problems. -- I send the feed through FeedValidator.org and the results are below. My questions are:
1. how do I fix the problems

2. Is there a way to automatically rotate the pubdate so that I'm not doing it manually every day? Just seems that it shouldn't be necessary to do it manually. I have the feed to the whole blog and not to a specific page or post. I have to have a pubdate for Twitter Feed to read that changes every 24 hours - or a GUID element - which again would have to rotate and be different for each post.
3. Should I be doing something else to develop an RSS 2.0 feed - cause as you can tell I DO NOT know what I'm talking about!
THANKS in advance!
Gail

In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendation.
