"invalid xml error"

I've been publishing podcasts with iWeb and then uploading to iTunes just fine, but now when I try to do the same I get an "invalid .xml error... line 38... missing </link> tag" message again and again. I went in and checked the .rss file and it looks fine - I do not see the error it is referencing. HELP!

All your answers are there sorry if you are having trouble understanding maybe podcasting isn't for you sorry once again. The article may be difficult to understand but all your answers are there read it 100 times if necessary; embed it in your brain if you really want to podcast. I would suggest writing your own xml file and uploading it manually to retain accurate podcast publish and not rely on iWeb's limited ability pertaining to this subject.

This xml file you've provided is not the new xml that was unable to publish because of the error message you mentioned so there is no way to diagnose your issue and provide a specific answer. Of course the file online is fine; the file you tried to publish didn't publish because of error mentioned. Don't use iWeb to maintain a podcast but if you must then try deleting your podcast, recreating it and then publish All to .mac since it looks like that's what you're using. Or publish to a folder and manually upload the xml file to your host.
