Hi there,

Had a question, for those of us that like to use topic related feeds on 
our site.  How are we to get our page valid when the feed pulls in 
characters and syntax that are not valid?  I've found that even feeds 
from internet.com and yahoo.com will disallow validation through 
validator.w3.org due to strange characters and whatnot.  The only 
solution I could think of is have something coded in the feed puller to 
validate it prior to allowing it written to the page displaying the 
feed(s). 

Thanks in advance,
