    Struggling to read an RSS source via XLST

    I have some XSLT which I have used previously to read and process an RSS feed.

    I am now trying to add a feed into a new site but don't quite understand what's going on:-s

    The RSS feed is coming from Talknet.org.uk and is created here - http://www.talknet.eu/confluence/dashboard/configurerssfeed.action

    I am selecting "blog posts" only (for a specific "space") and have tried all 3 output formats. The next page gives you something that you are supposed to drag onto your RSS reader, but I want to read it via XSLT. I saved the file and the contents were -

    [code]


    [/code]

    Which looks just like what I was expecting. However, when I use "GetXmlDocumentByUrl" to read the URL (of the thing you are supposed to drag into your RSS reader), I get formatted output like this

    [code]KPHA RSS Feedhttp://www.talknet.org.uk/confluenceThe 10 most recent modifications to blogposts less than 35.0 days old in space UKPHA & GM Fuel Poverty Initiative.GMFPI's First Key Stakeholders Meetinghttp://www.talknet.org.uk/confluence/display/TALKGMFPI/2009/04/02/GMFPI%27s+First+Key+Stakeholders+Meeting

    Blog 13th March 2009 On 13th March we had our first meeting of the key stakeholders from each of the 10 PCTs and 10 LA's involved in GMFPI at Manchester Business School (MBS). 

    What a good day – got to say I was nervous about how the project would be perceived by the group as a whole because I've been working with everyone individually, but the feedback gave me great confidence to carry on. 

    So – I hadn't really seen it like this before, but the meeting gave me perspective – the first phase of the project is coming to completion. All 10 GM authorities and their PCT partners now have access to a 'clearing house' (AWARM) which means that every professional across Greater Manchester can make a referral for any client or patient or customer (whatever you want to call them). (Whether they are or not is another [/code] and so on (this is just a "dump" of the value returned by GetXmlDocumentByUrl).

    So, how can I (can I?) get the actual XML rather than the formatted output? :-k
