Apps RSS feeds crashing

Hy, Since I'm currently the newest member hello to everyone.
The question I would like to ask is this:
I've followed a rss tutorial on this page (Sorry but no links allowed so just google android-er simple rss reader part IV show details once, I'm sure you'll find it)
Anyway a lot of rss feeds are working but there are some that when loaded crash. Most of those feeds end with .aspx but there are also some that crash that don't have the same suffix..
Is there a problem in the handler and how can I fix it.
Thanks
 
Your not providing any information other than it crashed. I do not know the answer, but this is how I would go about diagnosing it.

1. Look at the logs. On the command prompt 'adb logcat' should display any errors. Ideally there will be a stack trace with the line number of where it went wrong. Sometimes just googling the stacktrace error is enough

2. Add extra logging information into your code, such as varibales. Use the Log class. Compare the logs of a feed that does work to one that does not.

3. If you are using eclipse, you can run your app in debug, which will let you step through each line of your code. You maybe able to find out where and why using the debugger. The eclipse debugger is excellent, and it is worthwhile learning this regardless.
