Hello,

Thanks so much for the module. Exactly what I needed. However, when I try to grab a feed with HTML, the results show up like below:

div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'pobject height='350' width='425'param value='http://youtube.com/v/XWZMjuFr_S8' name='movie'/embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/XWZMjuFr_S8'//object/ppCome on ! br /br /Get up ! br /br /It's Sunday !/p/divdiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='http://res1.blogblog.com/tracker/8427106-2985156824122487858?l=daveys2france.blogspot.com'//div

Taking a look into the database, this is how the content is being saved -- so something seems to be going wrong before things are stored in the DB. Any idea what might be going on? Thanks again.

Hi JaceRider,

I know it's been months but could you recall the feed URL you entered to get this result? I am trying to catch up with the bug reports while I have free time.

thanks,

This looks very much like this issue here. It hasn't been solved, it doesn't occur on all sites, or on all feeds. It seems like there is another contrib module (or modules) (or filters) that can interfere with the parsing of the XML. No one has tracked it down yet.

Still no solution, but the problem seems to be in the aggregator module (feed_field is dependent on aggregator). There may be another module also involved (i.e. a code crash), because the same setup that fails on one site can work on another. See the link above for all the gory details. I'm setting this to "won't fix" because the problem is deeper than the feed_field module.
