i ended up subclassing PBBlogRssView so that i can override the renderer on the header, as well as the entires. in getting the feed ready to go on itunes, i found that i need to be able to render an xml prefixed notation, like: <itunes:name>john doe</itunes:name> or even with attributes: <itunes:category text="Technology"> how would i use the rss renderer to prefix or use attributes? ideas? thanks! -- ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101
