is there a bug in the xoops headlines module

Hi

I was wondering if there really is a bug with the xoopsheadlines module which makes it mysteriously work with some rss feeds but not with others?? Reading on the forums it seems that this might be the case. I can't seem to get mine to work with the rss feed at http://www.britarch.ac.uk/newsfeed/index.html (or atleast I think that counts as an RSS feed - please tell me if Iam wrong).

Could anyone suggest a differnt module if I can't get XOOPS headline to work?

Many thanks in advance

I found that I could get almost all feeds with Headlines with trial and error messing with the settings. I'd really like to see that module reworked someday as it hold promise. One thing of note is that for whatever reason it often took several hours (or so it seemed) for a change to take effect and for the feed to start feeding properly which made making adjustments a laborious process.

Another option might be WebDigest (http://dev.xoops.org/modules/xfmod/project/?group_id=1096). I ran across it on the Module Dev Forge and will be trying it out in the next few weeks. I'm finalizing theme changes and working on forums first.
