Remove HTML from CNN RSS Feeds
 
Well I have tried editing the files which deal with the RSS.
Such as changing &lt; to < and &gt; to >, and then removing any HTML - I have also tried making it out put it as HTML without removing it.

But there seams to be a function within which is replacing the tags to blank space.

So does anyone know how I could do this?

Example of CNN RSS:
HTML Code:

An American journalist reported by her father as being detained in Iran had been working there without a permit, Iran's Foreign Ministry said Monday. Saberi's father, who lives in North Dakota, told CNN that his daughter called him from jail February 10 and told him she'd bought a bottle of wine for a friend's birthday. "Authorities told her the person who sold her the wine turned her in," Reza Saberi said.&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?a=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:yIl2AUoC8zA"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?a=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:7Q72WNTAKBA"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?a=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:V_sGLiPBpWU"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?i=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?a=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:qj6IDK7rITs"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?a=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:gIN9vFwOqvQ"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~ff/rss/cnn_topstories?i=h9RrtQSNRPA:Qt7zAGctjf8:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/rss/cnn_topstories/~4/h9RrtQSNRPA" height="1" width="1"/&gt;

Thanks in advanced :)

I found one way around it, instead of editing vBulletin files, create a PHP file which edits the RSS file before imported to vBulletin.

rss.php
PHP Code:

<?php
$rss 
$_GET["rss"];
$rss file_get_contents($rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;a href="(.*?)"&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;img src="(.*?)" border="0"&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;\/img&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;\/a&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;\/div&gt;/'''$rss);
$rss preg_replace('/&lt;img src="(.*?)" height="1" width="1"\/&gt;/'''$rss);

echo 
$rss;
?>

Then for the Feed URL, just simply put the following:
Code:

rss.php?rss=http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_latest.rss
or
Code:

rss.php?rss=http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss

I followed the instruction and created rss.php in /admincp folder. When I tried to http://mydomain.com/admincp/rss.php?...cnn_latest.rss, I got this error message:

------------------------------
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /rss.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
-------------------------------

I then tried chmod 744, 755, 777 to the rss.php file, but that didn't work.

Any clue?

rss.php should probably be in your forum root directory. Also for the URL put in the full URL like:
Code:

http://yourforum.com/forum/rss.php?http://www.cnn.com/rss/

I'm getting this error when using that rss.php?rss= infront of feed url...

Code:
