blogspot-on-planet-fix

Blogspot on Planet Fix

Blogspot's atom feed (http://whatever.blogspot.com/atom.xml) currently doesn't work properly with the PlanetPlanet aggregator, and possibly other things that use the Universal Feed Parser, due to using <br/> instead of <br />. I'm currently setting up a Planet, so this was a problem. My solution was to write a filter script. It's very simple. You can use it if you want.

To use, for your feed put: http://rsynnott.com/stuff/bsatomfix.php?url=[url of blogspot atom.xml]. Ideally the url for the target blog atom file should be URL encoded, but PlanetPlanet at least handles it itself. I obviously make no guarantees about this script, but if you use it, let me know :)
