"Import URL" errors and "Save as note" error on RSS Feed message #11
Alexander, I noticed a change to 0.9.22 between what I downloaded from ZNOTES.NET and the Mozillia Add-on site so I retested. If you up a verison on ZNOTES.NET, I would suggest that you always increase the last digit even if you have to add a fourth number so we know that it has changed.
While using the ZNotes "Import URL" function on 0.9.22, I observed the following problems:
2) Importing "http://www.npr.org/rss/"
displays correctly in the browser but saving it results in an "XML Parsing Error:
not well-formed" error message. UPDATE: This now works! It is not worth
reinstalling the verison I downloaded from ZNOTES.NET to see whether this
was due to a later change or whether NPR corrected their website.
3) "NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND" error messages are very common but does not
seem to affect the displaying of the stored note. I saw one for
"_ServeAd.png" so it is probably good that it was ignored!
4) If there is anyway to suppress "Popups", please do so! It was difficult to test this
because I don't know a site that consistently presents a "Popup" but when they do,
the "Imported URL" is worthless! When I tried closing the "Popup" in the browser
before saving, it saved as Text, not XHTML so that isn't a circumvention.
UPDATE: I believe that his is still a valid issue.
When I attempted a "Save note as" on an RSS Feed message, there was no Note Name displayed and I didn't know how to enter one. When I clicked "Accept", I don't think anything was saved anywhere. UPDATE: This is still a valid issue.
You could reject the "Save as note" on an RSS Feed message with an error message telling the user to copy the URL following "Website" to the clipboard and then do an "Import URL" into whatever Notebook they want. Ulimately, you should just invoke the "Import URL" allowing the user, of course, to modify the Note Name and Notebook Name exactly as if they invoked the "Import URL" function themselves.

1) Importing "http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/fronts/RSS_FEEDS?SITE=AP" "never completes". UPDATE: It is now clear that this is in some kind of unending loop because it keeps returning to the beginning.
