Protecting the user from an XSS or SQL injection attack is one thing, accepting non-standard compliant feeds is another.
Did you waste the time to read a couple of threads before mine or did you have this reply tailor made a few days ago? The discussion was on weather to accept non-standard compliant RSS/RDF/ATOM feeds or not sweety. And a little on weather to push for PHP 5 or not. So why don't you stick to that for a change?
> Ahhh... so by sanitizing you mean accepting non-fully standards
> compliant feeds? If that's what you mean then definitely not. I totally
No, I don't. I mean protecting the users from some idiot inserting XSS
or anything else in his RSS items (knowingly or not). Someone in this

"trusts" the RSS feeds they consume. That's uh... foolish.
The rest of your email was entirely ignorable.
