Is that what it's supposed to look like?Code:This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

and with the videositemap, I get this:
I swear, this stuff only happens to me.Code:XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: http://df2videos.com/videositemap.php
Line Number 164, Column 38:http://df2videos.com/view/30/Search & Destroy/</loc>

I think i got that first one figured out, I went here http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ (they have a free sitemap thingie) and what I had to do is save it as an .xml document and then tell google where that was.
But the one with the parse error...no clue....only me, only me.
and I'm also going to try this out (got this from google webmaster stuff) It's a sitemap generator...not sure how to use it but I guess I'll find out. :D

What I did was I copied the source code of what the results were from the videositemap.php you supplied, erased that one link for the "Search & Destroy" from the list and submitted it to google as sitemap.xml. So far google says there are no errors. I'm assuming that's what we're supposed to do, or are we supposed to submit videositemap.php to google?

We were unable to read your Sitemap. It may contain an entry we are unable to recognize. Please validate your Sitemap before resubmitting. Help
Here's something else I'm gonna try
http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/74064.html
It says in the documentation of this script that we need "sitemap.xml"....and that freebie site also converts the stuff to sitemap.xml (which you upload and tell google where it is) so I assumed that the sitemap.php you supplied worked in the same manner. That's when I copied the source code of sitemap.php and removed the offending link and saved it as sitemap.xml which google liked...so IDK.
concentrate on the channels...as that's where the ampersand is located...problem is I have several channels with ampersand in it and those ones didn't create an error, just the channel for Search & Destroy did... :/ IDK
OH DUH, yeah. ok. I can change the name on the video for now.
If anybody else wants to test something, just let me try and I'm guaranteed to break it. :/
