Hi guys,

I can't for the life of me get my feeds to validate.

Any suggestions on how to clean up content so non-breaking spaces, normal ampersands (&) etc don't break the validator?

Cheers,

Galen

   Here is the template we use:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
     <title>{{ site.title }} by John Nunemaker</title>
     <link href="{{ blog.feed.url }}" rel="self" />
     <link href="{{ blog.url }}" />
     <id>{{ blog.url }}</id>
     <updated>{{ blog.last_updated_at | isodate }}</updated>
   
     {% for post in blog.recent_posts.15 %}
       <entry>
         <title>{{ post.title | h }}</title>
         <link href="{{ post.url }}" />
         <id>{{ post.url }}</id>
         <updated>{{ post.updated_at | isodate }}</updated>
         <published>{{ post.published_at | isodate }}</published>
         {% for label in post.labels %}<category term="{{ label }}"/>{% endfor %}
         <summary type="html">{{ post.data.excerpt | h }}</summary>
         <content type="html">{{ post.data.body | h }}</content>
         <author>
           <name>{{ post.creator.name | h }}</name>
         </author>
       </entry>
     {% endfor %}
   </feed>

   That seems to validate with the exception of object tags here and there.
