Description

The xsl transform for RSS building uses the "cleaned" value of the title field to build the feed. Consequently the colon separating title from subtitle is lost in the display.

See web/services/Search/xsl/opac-rss.xsl and Util.cleanData()

One solution is to add an "unclean" rssTitle field at import time, but that is costly in storage for the majority of titles. It would be ideal to create rssTitle only when needed.

To clarify, *any* display of title information (not just RSS) will lose distinguishing punctuation between title and subtitle if relying on the "title" field of the biblio index. Other fields may have similar problems. Maybe the approach should be to index but not store the "clean" fields and to store but not index the "raw" fields.

RSS XSLT was completely rewritten at r1682 -- this is no longer an issue.
