I've set up over 250 single word feed campaigns in the last week, I'll be spending the next day or two removing apostraphies, ampersands and white space from them, Rage Cash feeds look a hell of a lot better than most

Pat, I'm not sure its a feed issue. Rage Cash feeds look fine on my blogs. You might want to try removing the charset statement from your header or changing it to UTF-8

I actually hope it is me, (easier than editing all the posts with an apostraphie in them) I tried changing my charset statement, that didn't work.
I'll see if kaktus has any ideas

Odd, I'm using RSS2HTML, the free version.

You can see here on XXX Blog Maniac that I'm not seeing the problems you are.

Since I'm including the feed on a blog page, the character set was the only thing I could think of. Since I would assume that the issue would have to be in the head.

That was going to be my guess. You need to just make a change to your header and change the character set and it should correct the characters being used in the feed and get them to display properly.

I changed the character set to UTF-8, that fixed my ampersand problem but not apostrophe's http://www.rssnobrainer.com/Bizzare.html
The guy that coded this for me reappeared from the dead, I'll have him tackle the apostrophe's, it's got me baffled
