Problems with forum RSS feed in Safari

I just clicked on the RSS button for the general forum and got:

"Safari can’t open the page.
Too many redirects occurred trying to open “feed://fieldofview.nl/spv-dev/forum/taxonomy/term/4/0/
taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/
term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/
taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/
taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/
term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/taxonomy/0/taxonomy/term/
taxonomy/0/feed”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."

No idea if this is the site or Safari.

OS X 10.4.2 and 10.4.3
Safari 2.0 and 2.0.2

unable to repro

I can't reproduce this. Is it just for the general discussion forum or also for the other sections?

All fora

Just checked, it's the same in all of them. Given the newness of RSS in Safari it might well be this end and not your server.

works for me in safari

The odd thing is, it works for me in Safari...

Just a hunch: are you using www.fieldofview.nl or fieldofview.nl (ie: with or without the www.)? Please try it with/without www. and see if that fixes it

Tried both

No difference:
"Safari can’t open the page.
Too many redirects occurred trying to open “feed://www.fieldofview.nl/spv-........"

repro'd, safari bug (?)

I see... I was trying to repro this by using the orange XML button at the bottom of the page. This works just fine, even on Safari.

However, when using the blue RSS button in the address bar of Safari, you get the redirect error. Sure sounds like a Safari bug, but I'll look in to it. In the mean time, use the orange XML button instead of the blue RSS button...

Oops.

Never even thought to click on the orange button, wasn't sure what it referred to! Works fine.
