adding the below into the rssfeed.php removespecial function fixed alot of my validation errors.

$str = str_replace('& # 4 4 ;', "'", $str);


Remove the spaces from & # 4 4 ; (forum chages it)

Maybe you could put it in the default so that I don't overwrite on the next upgrade.

Note that my rss reader (Feed Reader) won't display feeds with encoding errors, so mine doesn't work at all without the above changes.
