Sorry for asking a painful question but how do I use this script to convert an Atom feed into an HTML site?

Thanks

Tim

Note that the XML namespace for Atom is now: http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom Change line 3 to xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" in order to match elements in current Atom feeds.
