Joy of encoding
In my comments section, Timothy Appnel is evangelizing the use of CDATA. Unfortunately, at the moment his RSS 0.91 Index Feed is not well formed XML, whereas his RSS 1.0 Index Feed is. Both use CDATA, but the difference is that the RSS 1.0 feed contains the string
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
This allows the use of Microsoft's so-called "smart quotes" to be rendered as a rectangle. Somewhat better rendering would be achieved through the use of
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
Another approach would be to use the demoronizer tool.
