Rss feed title styling

I have the following code for rss output on my site.

<?php
/*

Class RSSParser:    2 October 2002

Author:    Duncan Gough

Overview:         An RSS parser that uses PHP and freely available RSS feeds to add fresh news content to your site.

Installation:      Decompress the file into your webroot and include it from whichever pages on which you want
                    to display the data, e.g;

                    include("rss.php");

Usage:        As above, just include the rss.php file from within your PHP page, and the news will appear.
                    You should find the HTML code in the functions endElement(), show_title() and show_list_box() below,
                    feel free to modify these to match your site.

Code (markup):

I smiply need to know how to change the following bit to style the title of each article:

printf( "\t<br><b><a href='%s' rel='nofollow'>%s</a></b>\n", trim( $this->link ), htmlspecialchars( trim( $this->title ) ) );
            printf( "\t<br>%s<br>\n", htmlspecialchars( trim( $this->description ) ) );

Code (markup):

<br><p><b><a href='%s' rel='nofollow'>%s</a></p></b>

works, but if I put styling in the <p> an error shows instead of the feed.

Can someone help please?

 

Either use an external style sheet, or escape any quotes you have in the styling eg " turns to \"

 

thanks, thats great help
