XML Parsing Error + /home link

[teokolo]

Hello,
I have two problems with Xmap 1.2.11 + Joomla 1.5.22 + php 5.3.4

1) XML Parsing Error

When I access the sitemap at index.php?option=com_xmap&sitemap=1&view=xml sometimes sitemap generation is wrong.

This is what I get with firefox (similar errors with Opera):

XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: http://www.videopokercasino.it/index.php?option=com_xmap&sitemap=1&view=xml
Line Number 1, Column 6:daily</changefreq>
-----^

The generated sitemap looks like this:

daily</changefreq>
<priority>0.5</priority>
</url>
<url>

As you can see it doesn't start with XML header but it starts at the middle of the sitemap.

I don't get any error in apache logs: is it possible to enable error reporting?

The problem is reproducible also with cache disabled

2) First link in sitemap is /home

The URL of home page is the alias (/home) instead of being the main website url.

I found this bug in very old version of Xmap and it has come back in 1.2.11

This is very annoying because Google doesn't like /home url in sitemap being redirected with .htaccess to /

Is it possible to fix this bug?

Thanks in advance.

No one?

The most important problem is the root link, I think the solution is not that difficult...

I really hate bumping threads, and I understand Xmap is a free extension, but I need to know if someone is looking into this issues.

I see Xmap 1.2.12 and 1.2.13 have been realeased, but none of the above bugs have been fixed in those releases.

I still have the /home homepage link and the XML parsing error.

Guillelmo, could you please say something?
