    Hey Danial,

    if I have a look at the Rss-Feeds from some blogs, they always post most of their content in the <decsription> Tag.

    Any particular Reason why you are not doing the same?

    Hi Stephan,
    Thank you for your comment. I intially added the description tag and had Number of Posts + LastPost + Poster etc for each thread. I even added all posts for each thread in the description tag. But if I put all the posts for each thread in description tag it will load a bit slow, so thats why I created a link which loads all the posts when you click a particular thread.

    If you wish I can modify and give you the option to lists all the posts in the description tag. I assumed you want posts in the description tag, if not then please let me know.

    Thanks.

    No just a question, its good the way it is! Was just wondering why! Cause as I said most blogs include the content in their description tag, but then of course a blog is something completely different than a forum of this size!

    No everything is good the way it is right now! I am using the feeds quite regularly! Good work there! Thanks again!

    Oops, Sorry I misunderstood you there. Great to know you are finding it useful. Any further suggestion and comments is very welcome.

    Just out of curiosity what reader are you using? I have only tested it with SharpReader.

    Thanks for your comment again Stephan.

    Actually I am using my own custom Rss Reader, and SharpReader.

    My own Reader is not yet as good as SharpReader and was designed for some blogs I was checking on a daily basis. But at the moment whenever I have some time, I am improving my own reader, so it will read all Rss, Atom Feeds.

    If I ever think its good enough I will be posting it here! Might take some time, cause there is still a lot of work to do!
