I have created an RSS-feed on one of my websites (www.rsvnet.nl) and am trying to display this feed using aggregator on another (www.covs.org).

The feed display has HTML markup in it (e.g. from the Google AdSense tags) and therefor seems garbled.

Is it possible to display clean text or full HTML, or at least without these extra tags?

Thanks in advance.

I have noticed that this behaviour does not exist in my dev environment which is using WAMPS. The differences are in the PHP version: 5.2.10 (with the problem) and 5.3.0 (without).

Could this cause the effect?

Hi,

I'm having a similar problem with the RSS feed from www.pensionen-mit-charme.de/blog/feed
My top keywords are now: "span", "style", "class".

I didnt have this problem a month or so ago...
One thing which has changed is that I have started using FCK editor. Could that be adding alot more html terms?

Any suggestions?

Jim

It seems that libxml in PHP is the culprit:

@Jim, could you confirm this? If so, I shall be closing the issue as it is a hosting problem, not a Drupal problem.

Reading references

In my case I use php 5.3 and

Nombre : libxml2
Arquitectura : i686
Versión : 2.7.6
Lanzamiento : 1.fc12
Tamaño : 1.7 M
....
....
version that refers you to more than one year (libxml2 2.6.3 http://xmlsoft.org) and also is expressed in here

And as I said the same page and this solved the problem...
Therefore I am convinced that php or any of its modules is .....( libxml2) that tried them on other platforms (not Drupal)

That's why I reopen the issue

I run 2 Drupal sites multisite from the same codebase with separate databases on Bluehost.
One site http://ephototips.com works just fine and have proper keywords. Another site http://malinamusic.ru has problem explained here.

Attached is a screenshot of top keywords Google identified for http://malinamusic.ru. LOL :) I guess I will disable crawling of all RSS feeds for now.

Bluehost uses:
libxml2 Version 2.7.6
PHP Version 5.2.13

Strangely I found it went away for a couple of months, then came back..
@edvanleeuwen, really sorry for not replying sooner! I just saw this again. I'm on shared hosting, in a foreign language so I'm struggling to find out the php version but reading the link you mentioned, it sounds reasonable.

I have PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.4 and just ran into this issue, found this thread via http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2903304/drupal-feeds-showing-encoded-... where the best answer says that the description is supposed to be XML-text-encoded HTML - but the W3 validator http://validator.w3.org/feed/ says it should NOT be. Color me confused.

I am reopening this, as it has come back. I am not sure in which version of Drupal, though.

Version: 7.39 » 7.x-dev

Core issues are now filed against the dev versions where changes will be made. Document the specific release you are using in your issue comment. More information about choosing a version.

Status: Active » Closed (outdated)

Automatically closed because Drupal 7 security and bugfix support has ended as of 5 January 2025. If the issue verifiably applies to later versions, please reopen with details and update the version.
