Actually Mozilla would let you do this using XLinks rather than HTML
links. In fact, you could make your html:a element an XLink too so it
works in both IE6 and Mozilla. Something like:
<item xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<title>...</title>
<description>...</description>
<link>http://...</link>
<html:a href="http://..." xlink:href="http://...">...</html:a>
<dc:date>2002-07-09T10:19:17-01:00</dc:date>
</item>
Of course you could also use XSLT in both Mozilla and IE.
