Since the websites are not directly updated from the CVS server, the fix might need some time to spread across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself.

This time the culprit is an unencoded ampersand in the title: "Forum PHP in Paris, France, November 9 & 10th, 2006". Replace & with & and you're golden. I would recommend passing any HTML sent to the RSS feed through DOM (using relaxed HTML parsing, and then outputting again) or HTML Purifier (http://hp.jpsband.org/). See Bug #37512 and Bug #37513 for prior art. I'll take another whack at making a patch using the above-mentioned advice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39054&edit=1
