 * Dang! That worked. I guess indexes must not include index.php, although that 
   seems a bit unlikely as all sorts of other stuff would be breaking. Anyhow, this
   is wonderful. Google will love me, and all good things have happened.
 * Thank you very much.

 * I did that and still no success. Either Apache is not rewriting the URL (the 
   likely scenario because the logs show a 404), or there is a problem turning the
   URL into an actual post. I’m stumped.

 * Ok, so I did that, and the link that’s being generated comes out something like:
 * `http://subdom.domain.com/2010/05/11/zooming-in-photoshop-cs4-and-cs5`
 * From the custom string:
 * `/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%`
 * So now the post id is not being included in the string. I’ve resaved the permalink
   structure using Save Changes on the Permalink Settings page but still see no 
   evidence that the redirection is taking place.
 * Weird thing about it is that this works just fine locally. Is there something
   in the main httpd.conf that could be making Apache not read .htaccess?
 * Thanks so much…

 * Well, I fixed that validation nit as well, and all my feeds are now passing the
   W3C validator. But… only ATOM is displayed at all in Safari. FireFox is fine,
   IE 7 gets most of the feeds. Not Safari.
 * I know this isn’t a WP problem, but does anyone know why Safari would give an
   error on these? BTW: I’ve used this release of Safari on other RSS feeds no prob.
 * Thx

 * Update. I punted trying to hunt the errant space down and did this: I edited 
   wp-rss2.php, inserting the following code:
 * At the very top:
 * `function clean_spaces($buffer)`
    `{` ` return trim($buffer);` `}` `ob_clean();``
   ob_start('clean_spaces');`
 * At the very bottom:
 * `<?php`
    ` ob_end_flush();` `?>`
 * This takes a blunt instrument approach to chomping any leading or trailing whitespace.
   The feed works in FireFox and NewsFire reader. It fails in Safari and IE 7.
 * I’m an RSS noob so please forgive what are probably old questions…
 * Thx

 * Ok, I tried shutting off *all* plugins and the problem persisted. I checked every
   PHP file and none have leading space prior to the `<?php` or trailing space after
   the last `?>`. Any further thoughts regarding how best to find the errant blank
   line?

 * Is there a case where a page contains more than one article? That would explain
   the #post-ID in the url. If it’s only one article per page, wouldn’t this be 
   just as good?
 * `function replace_the_more($content) {`
    `return preg_replace('/#more-(d)/','',
   $content);` `}` `add_filter('the_content','replace_the_more');`

 * A good solution.
 * Thanks
