I have an RSS file which does not have <link> tag in the <item>. eg: JohnFeed:

The item is like below: <item> <title>Sample Item</title> <pubDate>16 Aug 2010</pubDate> <description>Sample Description</description> <category>A </category> </item>

When i open this RSS file in Firefox, it shows me the Feed Preview page where it asks me to subscribe to the feed.

Now, once i subscribe, i get a button on the menubar with the feed name i.e JohnFeed. When i click on the JohnFeed feed button, no items are displayed.

If i go to other popular RSS sites (eg. CNN.com) and subscribe to their feeds, i get items in the feed button as they all have <link> tag in the <item> tag.

Please let me know how i can come across this barrier?

Hi Johnjoseph

Can you not just insert a link such as: <link>http://www.scottishmotorcycleclub.org.uk</link> between your title and description tags? Or have I missed your point?
