I’m feeling a little better towards WP today. I got a news feed up and working. And I figured out how to do some of the side-blog stuff by using link categories. So things are looking up a bit.

The newsfeed formatting isn’t perfect and CaRP isn’t creating valid XHTML, so I think I will need to tweak it a little bit, still.

But it works. And, as every good programmer knows, that’s more than 1/2 the battle!

[UPDATE 06/06/04] I plunked down my hard-earned $18.95 for CaRP Evolution, which gave me access to the ReplaceText plug-in. And that, boys and girls, has solved my invalid markup problem by allowing my to “fix” Yahoo’s invalid ampersands in urls. 🙂
