RSS specification HTML code inside RSS feed

The RSS 2.0 specification says that you can include HTML in the description element so long as you properly encode the markup.

You have two ways to do this:

1. Convert tags to escaped HTML entities:

   <description>this is &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;</description>
   

2. Wrap the description content within a CDATA section:

   <description><![CDATA[this is <b>bold</b>]]></description>
