4984	RSS Widget does not change encoding of RSS feed	camilohollanda	widgets	"Widget for RSS dont identify correct coding of RSS imported. It mantains the same coding of original RSS. As I use UTF-8 in my site, ISO RSS will be corrupted. So I adapted my widgets.php

function detectUTF8($string) {
        return preg_match('%(?:
        [\xC2-\xDF][\x80-\xBF]        # non-overlong 2-byte
        |\xE0[\xA0-\xBF][\x80-\xBF]               # excluding overlongs
        |[\xE1-\xEC\xEE\xEF][\x80-\xBF]{2}      # straight 3-byte
        |\xED[\x80-\x9F][\x80-\xBF]               # excluding surrogates
        |\xF0[\x90-\xBF][\x80-\xBF]{2}    # planes 1-3
        |[\xF1-\xF3][\x80-\xBF]{3}                  # planes 4-15
        |\xF4[\x80-\x8F][\x80-\xBF]{2}    # plane 16
        )+%xs', $string);
}

if(!detectUTF8($desc)) { $desc = utf8_encode($desc); }
if(!detectUTF8($summary)) { $summary = utf8_encode($summary); }
if(!detectUTF8($title)) { $title = utf8_encode($title); }

But I think that ideal would be that widgets could convert RSS to the coding of choice in the Options menu of Admin. In my case, UTF.
