Apologies for duplication


We're trying to pull data out of a database as an RSS feed, and have created 
the following feed http://136.159.240.60/ucpress/rssfeed/ucpress.php, which 
does validate at 
W3C<http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2F136.159.240.60%2Fucpress%2Frssfeed%2Fucpress.php>,
 but we seem to be running into issues with our nonstandard namespace.  We’d 
originally thought to use a custom namespace, but now have switched to ONIX 
(the database is of University Press material).  I’ve read that using any but 
the “widely known” namespaces will result in most RSS readers not being able to 
render the content, which appears to be the case with this feed. (which makes 
we wonder what’s the point of being able to extend it, but that’s for another 
day maybe).



I’m trying to bring that feed into Drupal via FeedAPI (v5.x), but all I’m able 
to “see” is the title field, and none of the other content.



So I’m stuck wondering if it’s a problem with the feed itself, or with what I’m 
trying to do with the Drupal module.  Do I have to drop back to basic RSS 2.0 
specifications?



Thanks muchly in advance for any light you can shed on the problem.
