Summary	0005046: Unreadable RSS data
Description	If a news has some spaces in front of a line in its text, the rss data produced by rss.php are unreadable with rssreaders because they are not XML compliant. Spaces are changed to "&nbsp" and this is not correct for the XML format. I suggest to use the <description> node to put a summary of the news and the <content:encoded> node to put whole text of the news.
Steps To Reproduce	Put a text like this one in a news, and the RSS xml will not be readable anymore: first line, begin a list: Item one Item two
Additional Information	The XML file is not readable by IE and Thunderbird. I didn't process tests with other rssreader or xmlreader.
Tags	No tags attached.

Tetram 2004-12-23 15:36 reporter ~0008795	A note just to say that, after cleaning my news to make them readable, I saw that using <content:encoded> make the news cleany readable in Thunderbird when using the "Show the arcticle summary instead of loading the web page" option. Otherwise, line breaks (and all html tag) are suppressed.
