Hi again SFov,
Thanks for your update! The code I provided to you will help us determine what's causing the problems - it's probably not going to solve the issue right up front. With that in mind, I visited your site again, and as expected, I received the error messages, but this time with the URLs of the 'images' that Featurific is trying to load.
As you can see from the error messages (included at the end of this post), there's definitely some malformed HTML that seems to be causing the problem. Check out the first entry in the list. It contains this bit of code:
Code:
<img alt="bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif" src="http://<a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a>watch.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/873b5_bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif" width="500" height="304" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" />
The alt attribute of this img tag is strange (it's very rare to use the filename as the alt attribute), but this shouldn't cause the problems we're seeing. The problems are introduced with the src attribute - it's completely malformed. It seems that a plugin/some third party code is trying to use the src of:
Code:
"http://<a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a>watch.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/873b5_bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif"
This URL is completely malformed; by inspecting the URL more, it's almost as if the third party code is *trying* to reference this URL:
Code:
"http://watch.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/873b5_bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif"
or this one:
Code:
http://www.ttc.ca/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/873b5_bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif
but neither URL seems to exist. Regardless, it appears that the text that is being syndicated does, in fact, have images in it, but they are malformed. This would explain 1) why the images aren't appearing in your syndicated posts, and 2) why Featurific is generating the errors that it is generating.
Any thoughts on what might be causing these problems?
-Rich

Working on ***Due to track and switch work near St. George Station, the <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> will be re-routing trains from May 22 to May 24 on the Bloor-Danforth line.***<br/>Working on ***<p><img alt="bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif" src="http://<a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a>watch.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/873b5_bloor_danforth_tunnel_construction.gif" width="500" height="304" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" /></p>
<p>This weekend, the <a href="http://bit.ly/1NOSts"><a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a></a> is repairing tracks near St. George Station on the 2 <strong>Bloor - Danforth</strong> subway line. The <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> is detouring all trains that would ordinarily operate along this part of the Bloor - Danforth tunnel.</p>
<p>(You can read Transit Toronto’s <a href="http://transit.toronto.on.ca/archives/weblog/2010/04/30-bloor_-_da.shtml">April 30 post</a> by <strong>Richard White</strong> for more details of this detour.) </p>
<p>Here’s what you can expect throughout the upcoming Victoria Day holiday weekend — from 5 p.m. on Saturday, <strong>May 22</strong> until 5 a.m. on Tuesday, <strong>May 25</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Bay Station</strong> is closed to passengers. If you usually board or leave the subway at Bay Station, this weekend, you’ll have to use Bloor - Yonge, Museum or St. George Stations if you want to travel along the 2 <strong>Bloor - Danforth</strong> line.</li>
<li>
Trains operating to or from Bloor - Yonge Station pass through — but don’t stop at — the <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a>’s “ghost station”, <strong>lower Bay Station</strong>.</li>
<li>
<strong>All east- and westbound trains detour to Museum Station</strong>, where they end their trips. If you want to travel further east- or westward along the line, you’ll have to exit the train at Museum, cross to the other side of the platform, then board a train going in the opposite direction to continue your trip.</li>
<li>
Both 1 <strong>Yonge - University - Spadina</strong> and 2 <strong>Bloor - Danforth</strong> subway trains share the same platform at <strong>Museum Station</strong>. Check the destination signs of each train to make sure that you’re getting on the right train. Listen to announcements over the public address system, read signs or ask <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> staff on the platform for directions to make sure you’re going the right way.</li>
<li>
Both 1 <strong>Yonge - University - Spadina</strong> and 2 <strong>Bloor - Danforth</strong> subway trains also share the same platform on the upper level of <strong>St. George Station</strong>. Trains do not operate through the lower level of St. George. Check the destination signs of each train to make sure that you’re getting on the right train. Listen to announcements over the public address system, read signs or ask <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> staff on the platform for directions to make sure you’re going the right way.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<p>The <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> previously closed Bay Station and detoured 2 <strong>Bloor - Danforth</strong> trains to Museum <a href="http://transit.toronto.on.ca/archives/weblog/2007/02/17-bloor-danf.shtml">on several weekends in February and March, 2007</a>.</p>
<hr />
<p>From the Transit Toronto archives, you can read <strong>James Bow</strong>’s articles about the history of lower Bay Station and why the <a href="http://www.ttc.ca"></a> abandoned it <a href="http://transit.toronto.on.ca/subway/5006.shtml">here</a> and <a href="http://transit.toronto.on.ca/subway/5117.shtml">here</a>.</p>

http://<a%20href=Working on ***><p>The <a href="http://bit.ly/c8VgnL">Metrolinx</a> board of directors today approved <a href="http://transit.toronto.on.ca/archives/weblog/2010/05/17-5_in_10_me.shtml">a revised plan</a> to complete shorter versions of the “Big Five” transit projects over ten years, instead of eight. Metrolinx will now present the revised project plan for the Government of Ontario to approve.</p>
<p>According to <strong>Robert Prichard</strong>, the president and chief executive officer of Metrolinx, the plan means that, “within a month, projects worth $7 billion of the $9.5 billion will be underway. This is the largest public transit investment in Canadian history and we need to get going now.”</p>
<p>In April 2009, the Province of Ontario announced $9.5 billion for the projects, which include York Region’s <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/4uZLwG">Viva</a></strong> bus rapid transit lines and three of Toronto’s <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/1hqgED">Transit City</a></strong> light rail lines — <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/4Avzjx">Sheppard East</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/5YcA8m">Etobicoke - Finch West</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/du1Lt">Eglinton - Crosstown</a></strong>. The “5 in 10 plan” also includes <a href="http://bit.ly/8JyQnk">a project</a> to extend the current <strong>Scarborough rapid transit</strong> line and convert it to light rail.</p>
<p>The 2010 Ontario budget committed to fully funding all five projects, including costs that rose because of inflation, but asked Metrolinx to develop a plan to reduce the funding for these projects in the first five years by $4 billion. Metrolinx says the “5 in 10 plan” achieves this goal — building the five projects by 2020, while saving $4 billion in the first five years.</p>
