My latest article, The RSS Watch Sample App, is now live on DevNet. Enjoy. The site mentioned in the article, RSSWatcher, is almost ready to go live. Oh, and in case it isn't obvious, the picture of me is a good four or five years old.

Good article as every Ray.
You got a typo though in the title "Artilcle"
Fixed. Thanks Ian.
Hi Ray - I'm late to the game, but very interested in learning more about how to integrate RSS into CFMX (v6.1).
I've reviewed your 2 articles on RRS Watcher application from Macromedia's site RSS Watch Sample App
I think I've got most of it setup correctly, but it consistently throws this error no matter what RSS feeds I add to the Search.xml file.
Would it be too much to ask if you have seen this before, and how the cause might be?

It sounds like the file may be corrupted. Try just viewing the CFC as is. If you get an error - then check the file from the zip and make sure it copied ok. Also note I have an updated version of an RSS checker. If you go to my blog, and search for rss.cfc, you should find a link to my RSS.cfc code.
