Can't call method "contents" on an undefined value at /kunden/homepages/37/d232472189/htdocs/executable/perl5lib/lib//XML/RSS/Parser.pm line 117. The attached feed, which is missing an items section (sourced from http://www.nationalpost.com/scripts/sp6query.aspx?catalog=ntnp&type=stry&tags=columnistname%7CLisa+Van+de+Ven) results in the above error message being thrown. I am executing by XML::RAI. If it needs to throw an error (instead of simply returning no items) then something clearer would be appreciated.
