I am tinkering with the geeklog.net demo site

I was logged in as admin, created a new block, enabled it, set it as a portal block with url http://www.npr.org/rss/rss.php?topicId=2
and saved it.

When I go to the homepage the block is there but it says "there was a problem reading this feed see errror.log" but in my browser window I am able to open the xml feed of above URL

Help ??
thank you guys

Did I ask a really stupid question? I am baffled at the lack of responses from anybody.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The feed works for me locally but not from the demo site. No idea why, sorry.

bye, Dirk
