Comment (by DD32):

 Been brought up again, this time in #4746

 After looking at the source code, theres only really 2 options:

 1. serve the "ajax" data as text/html regardless of the
 get_option('html_type') setting
 2. Modify the way the news is loaded, so that instead of HTML it returns a
 XML document or something.

 The reason it only happens with one of the feeds is simply a fluke,
 They're all invalid documents being served as "application/xhtml+xml", Its
 just that 2 of the feeds manage to be parsed due to their simple nature,
 the planetnews feed result however includes <ul> which the XML parser
 gives up on.

 Theres a XML Validator here: http://www.validome.org/xml/validate/ which
 will give the error messages of the feeds.


 (NOTE: When i've refered to 'feed' in this message i've meant the ouput of
 index-extra.php, not the actual RSS feed that thats reading)
