Front page desc and HTML

Drupal 4.7.2

I really appericate using this module, you have done a great job with it - thanks - it really adds a polished feel to the site.

There is one thing I can't figure out.

In admin >setting > General

I use a little bit of HTML for my site name desc - the one that appears on the front page. It works out nicely.

However, when I view the Front Page feed in SiteMap it shows the HTML I use- in this case <i>word</i>

I don't care if Sitemap picks up the HTML attributes or not - Its not the frontpage - so its not really important - but I would like to be able to supress the HTML code from being seen by the user if possible.

Is there a way to strip out HTML attributes, in the SiteMap display?

and again thanks for this module, The RSS feeds it producess are outrstandng!!! It makes people think I actaully have talent ;-)
