# Feed Not Valid: 404 Error

 * This feed has good XML, but is not validating. I’ve looked at several places 
   and talked to my server, my theme creator, my programming husband and cannot 
   find why it is not valid.

 * I get both a “no DOCTYPE found” AND a Congratulations, you have good XML at this
   validator:
    [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcbcventura.org%2Ffeed%2Fpodcast%2F;No200=1](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcbcventura.org%2Ffeed%2Fpodcast%2F;No200=1)
 * Safari won’t display at all. Google will show the XML, but not encode it. Firefox
   will show the feed, but then feedvalidator.org says it’s not a valid feed.
 * HostGator (my server) cannot figure it out, but thinks that it might be a WordPress
   issue. ChurchThemes checked the code 3 times and says there is nothing wrong 
   there. Was told to direct my feed thru FeedBurner, but FeedBurner cannot see 
   it either.
    Please help!
