Whne I figure out a fix I'll post it.

actually it only runs one time. some people posting problems with duplicates actually have different news feeds. the script looks for the field pubDate ... some have something different for the date field like cc:date, some don't have a date field at all. also, one bug that i am pretty sure is in there that i will try and fix for the next update deals with duplicates.

if there is a " in the title, it will still post that even if it was posted before. this is because when it checks the database this is what happens:

title: this is my "news" feed
database: this is my \"news\" feed

both technically are the same, except for the escaped quotes. i think this is cause some posts with quotes in the title to be duplicated. i'm going to look into it further. i'm also trying to update the way posts are deleted with the delete all news function.
