RSS feed question -


do need xmlns links in rss code?

what following code mean?

<rss version="2.0" xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/" xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/commentapi/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/atom" xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/" xmlns:slash="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/" > 

the xmlns properties define xml namespaces.

for instance, xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/atom" defines namespace atom uri http://www.w3.org/2005/atom.

then, when create <atom:link> element, can see having uri http://www.w3.org/2005/atom/link, parser know link, defined in atom specification.

note, parser cannot go name of namespace, have used xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/2005/atom", make <a:link> atom link tag.
