I have had some problems setting up a RSS feed url via Views today.

From what I can tell, and please fill me in here, is that the tag is requesting a namespace of "dc" which is not defined in the xml tag. All the other tags in the rss feed are the default namespace, such as . Shouldn't the tag be and not ?

This causes both Firefox and IE to generate parse errors and not display the RSS feed...

This is views:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><rss version="2.0" xml:base="http://localhost/core/frontpage">

This is from core:

<rss version="2.0" xml:base="http://localhost/core"  xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">

</rss>

I guess views would have to add " xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" right?

EXACTLY! but I think I ran across a bug somewhere because that namespace is written into code, but does not come through in the $namespace variable in views-view-rss.tpl.php

I modified views-view-rss.tpl.php to include xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/' and although it is hardcoded, it works. Is that namespace really a "variable" though? Should it just be hardcoded in the template file?
