Subject: RSS Gadget not working for me with Arabic RSS feed
Hi,

I took the RSS gadget sample, (http://code.google.com/apis/desktop/
docs/Tutorials/RssGadget/index.html) and I only changed the

var CONFIG_FEED_URL = 'http://your-feed-address-goes-here';

and put the following feed link:

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/arabic/news/rss.xml

and i keep getting this error:

"... error in file parsers.js. Position: line 61, char 3 ..... code:
0x800A01A8, description: Object required. "

It seems it only happens when I use an Arabic feed link :S

Thank you in advance for any help  :)

I can't advise on your specific problem but you can try creating an account
at http://www.elertgadget.com where you can create gadgets using feeds and
then create a gadget using the feed you refer to and see if it works.

oohhps, I hit "return" by accident:)

so 2 origins:
-either the problem is the arabic
-or the problem is that very special feed which the BBC malforms

so have you tried any other arabic feeds? Please do so, and if doesn't work
again, then there is a serious problem with the characters... else you know
that it was just the feed and you could contact them about it (or you could
also try to add this feed to google reader or so and check if it works
there)

Thanks Yannick for the replay :)

For some reason I took it for granted that the BBC Arabic feed has no
problem so I digged more and tried as you suggested another feed from
CNN-Arabia and It WORKED :D

http://arabic.cnn.com/rss/cnnarabic_topnews.rss

so it was the url feed for some reason !!

THANKS :)
