    hi there,
    i was hoping someone could help me.
    i have just moved a blog to a new server and have imported the backup file via phpmyadmin. everything *seems* to be fine apart from the fact that my feed is all messed up.
    you can see it here:
    http://keithacharters.co.uk/blog/feed

    when i try to put it through feedburner, which i need to do, i get this error message:

    The URL you entered does not appear to be a valid feed. We encountered the following problem: Error on line 243: The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed.

    if anyone knows what could be causing this, or how i could fix it - i would be HUGELY greatful,

    many thanks,
    xsx

    it seems the problem was caused by bad characters in one or two of the posts (client copy/pasting from word or something) and once i went through it was fine.
    i'm not sure if there was a more intuitive way to do it than how i did (put it into text editor, changed to plain text then copied back in) but it did work...
