 * Okay, I have scoured the forums, but have not been able to put things together.
   I just got my WP installed in the last couple of days, but cannot get my RSS 
   feed to work.

 * I get an error message everytime.
 * Where should I begin to correct this issue?
 * Thanks!

 * If you have the newest 1.5.1 version of WP, then have you applied this bug fix?

 * My line 136 looks like this:
 * if ( ($client_last_modified && $client_etag) ?
    (($client_last_modified == $wp_last_modified)&&(
   $client_etag == $wp_etag)) : (($client_last_modified == $wp_last_modified) ||(
   $client_etag == $wp_etag)) ) { if ( preg_match(‘/cgi/’,php_sapi_name()) ) { header(‘
   Status: 304 Not Modified’); echo “\r\n\r\n”;
 * This is slightly different than the one found at the link you gave me. Will that
   work?

 * There are posts throughout this forum that a possible solution is deactivating
   your plugins and reactivating them one at a time, checking RSS feeds each time.
   Some plugins apparently have minor issues and need updates. In my case, besides
   applying the above fix, the deactivation/re-activation exercise cleared things
   up.

 * I have been going through the forums for the last few hours. My site is new and
   I haven’t activated any plugins yet. There are no active plugins according to
   my admin page.
 * I applied the change from the above link and continued to get the same error 
   message:
 * “The XML page cannot be displayed
    Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet.
   Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
 * I appreciate your input.

 * Niccolls, your only problem is an unknown character inside the title of your 
   most recent post. See: [http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcollege-search-blog.com%2Fwp-rss2.php](http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcollege-search-blog.com%2Fwp-rss2.php)

 * I appreciate your help!
