hello,

I followed this thread http://www.mambers.com/showthread.php?t=703&highlight=title+news
to try to costumize the output of an external rss feed.

some of the feeds that i tried work with the title in Bold and the regular text in regular font but the one i need does not work :(

please help!


this one works: http://www.inman.com/rss/IMRSS2_Consumer.xml

and this one does not work: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/realestate/rssheadlines.xml

can somebody please thrown me some light?

...forgot to say that the rss link that does not work only displays the title of the feed

TIA

Notice the encoding?

inman.com's encoding is: encoding="utf-8" ?>

while the Washington Post's is: encoding="iso-8859-1"

I think you need to twaek your RSS reader to be able to read the ISO-8859-1 encode.
