process_​feed()

Descrip­tion

string process_feed ( string $html [ , bool $isTitle = FALSE ] )

A method of class php­Ty­pog­ra­phy. Feed read­ers are often less than sophis­ti­cated in their han­dling of non-​​ASCII char­ac­ters.

The only mod­i­fi­ca­tion of html that occurs is: intel­li­gent char­ac­ter replace­ment of quotemarks, dashes, ellipses and trademarks.
