ok, firstly i am running 1.3.9.sr2 (i think) and i have already patched the timezone and upgraded the rss feeds to rss 2.0.
Now when i post a feed as plain text it comes through fine to rss (and urls are converted to links) but plain text on my site.
When i post in html format the Html formatting comes through fine on my site but as plain text (no breaks, no links, no extra spaces etc) on my rss feed.
I know i have the settings fine for allowed html tags etc but i am guessing the HTML is being stripped before saving, then syndicated, then added back for displaying on the site.

How/what do i modify to allow HTML to come through on my rss feeds? can anyone point me in the right direction.

The current content syndication engine strips all HTML formatting from articles in order to make the content valid XML. When I created the RSS2, Atom and RDF writers I just used the same strip routine to make it consistent.

You could try editing this function to make your XML valid, but contain HTML markup:

Text Formatted Code

    /**
    * Format the content of an item
    *
    * @author Dirk Haun <dirk AT haun-online DOT de>
    * @access private
    *
    */
    function _formatContent ($text)
    {
        $storytext = trim (strip_tags ($text));
        $storytext = preg_replace ("/(\015)/", "", $storytext);
        if ($this->_feedcontentlen > 1) {
            if (strlen ($storytext) > $this->_feedcontentlen) {
                $storytext = substr ($storytext, 0, $this->_feedcontentlen - 3)
                           . '...';
            }
        }

        return htmlspecialchars ($storytext);
    }
