 * When trying to validate xhtml with rss widget on I get this error:
 *  Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 165 it contained
   one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as utf-8 (in other words, the bytes
   found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check
   both the content of the file and the character encoding indication.
 * The error was: utf8 “\xF9” does not map to Unicode
 * rss feed is : [http://www.galileonet.it/rss/?section=news](http://www.galileonet.it/rss/?section=news)
   
   <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?> and xml valid
 * why this happens? and how can i fix this?
