RSS links don't work

I'm using Serendipity for my anime blog and I love it. I decided to try turning on the RSS feeds so I could tie it to my Yahoo! 360 page, however the link for the RSS 2 feed doesn't take me to a valid feed (nor Yahoo).
I double checked my settings and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
You can see the link it makes at
http://eclectic-world.com/myaddictions/animania/
Any ideas? I'm running the current version.

feedvalidator says:
Code: Select all
line 37, column 10507: content:encoded should not contain onmouseover tag (41 occurrences)
line 37, column 10507: content:encoded should not contain onmouseout tag (41 occurrences)
line 63, column 1902: content:encoded contains bad characters (6 occurrences)
... >When you are totally bored with life\x85is it time to end it all?</p ...
^
The onmouseover/onmouseout seem to come from the window.status-code. The invalid character is the acute“ instead of the apostrophe '.
But I'm not an expert on RSS-feeds

Fixed all the invalid characters feedvalidator reported, and that fixed it.
Thanks
Is there anyway I can limit the entries it sends to the RSS feed to 5?

You can limit the amount of RSS feed entries by editing your rss.php file and search for this line:
Code: Select all
serendipity_fetchEntries(null, true, 15, false,
Just replace the "15" to "5".
