feedparser chokes on feeds with namespaced title tags #423

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Given a feed like:

...
    <item>
        <title>Ah!  Don&#8217;t shove blind people!</title>
        <link>http://saddlebaggins.wordpress.com/2014/03/03/ah-dont-shove-blind-people/</link>

        <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category>
        <guid isPermaLink="false">http://saddlebaggins.wordpress.com/?p=639</guid>

.....

        <media:content url="http://www.visionaustralia.org/images/orientation-and-mobility/guiding_9_car.jpg?sfvrsn=0" medium="image">
            <media:title type="html">Hand on roof of car</media:title>
        </media:content>
    </item>

...

feedparser appears to ignore the media namespace and grabs the last title tag 
in *any* namespace. The parsed feed of this RSS Item is "Hand on roof of car" 
and not "Ah!  Don't shove blind people!"

Example data found @ http://saddlebaggins.wordpress.com/feed/

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this issue. This has been reported previously and 
unfortunately represents a larger issue with the media namespace support in 
feedparser due to its limited support of the namespace. I'm merging this with 
issue 257.
