It's impossible to create widget from RSS feed

Hi everyone,

after longer time I try to make new widget from RSS feed for me (there was an upgrade, but I cannot say if this situation is due to upgrading). I have an adress of RSS feed (like http://www.geocaching.cz/feeds/rss.php?q=rss&fid[]=27) and when I copy this link to the box in "creating a widget" dialog the red warning say to me "you needs to define a url." and I cannot do nothing else. But this adress is a valid url of the RSS feed. I create some witgets in this way with previous version of WidSets and everythings work fine.

Even when I try to create a new widget and copy the address from some old working widget the result is the same - it says agein "you need to define a url." :-(

Any ideas what is going wrong?

No idea so far... but I will check with our guys, if they see what's wrong in here. The feed should be valid.

Ok, if you try to create the widget with this RSS feed, it should work. It's basically the same feed but the special characters are escaped:
http://www.geocaching.cz/feeds/rss.php?q=rss&fid%5b%5d=27
