There are some special Carakters in German that are
encoded as (e.g.) ä ö ü in HTML.

In XML these entities are undefined but the Module does
not decode these entities.

    Thanks for the info. The entity support in php is lacking.
    Anything it doesn't support I have to manually add. If there
    are any others you know of, please let me know.

    &aacute messes up the feed too. Came across this one covering the Irish
    Milk Rs a couple of days ago. Affects the title and summary in the
    announcement feed.

    Bumping this one into consciousness again.

    &pound is the major one for us Brits and I imagine &euro for the sensible
    part of Europe. You can't run a commercial site feed here without that.

    There's a nice list on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
    List_of_XML_and_HTML_character_entity_references which I'd guess ALL
    need supporting.

    Are you sure it has to be done manually? php v4.3.0 added utf-8 to the
    html_entity functions so you could translate to utf-8 for the xml output.

    dear Wendall,

    I am experiancing this issue with phpwsrssfeed

    "Your feed appears to be encoded as "UTF-8", but your server
    is reporting "US-ASCII"

    What can I do to fix this?
    (i am not sure I understood fully the thread)

    thanks

    Murt
