Well I figured it out...
to fix html problem, open up /tutorials/index.php
find
le="color: #000000"><?php $myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['cdesc']);
replace with
le="color: #000000"><?php $cdesc = $myrow['cdesc'];
if you need html in title, then find
le="color: #000000"><?php $myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['cname']);
replace with
le="color: #000000"><?php $cname = $myrow['cname'];
Another bug in this module is [ratethis] tag not parsing in tutorial view. To fix it open /tutorials/viewtutorial.php and find
le="color: #000000"><?php $content = str_replace("[date]","$date",$content);
add after
le="color: #000000"><?php $content = str_replace("[ratethis]"," <a href="rate.php?tid=$tid"><b>"._MD_RATETHIS."</b></a>",$content);
There is ton of bugs in this module, it took me last 6 days to fix so it works for me. The blocks are totally screwed up, you will end up re-making them.
Here is my tutorials_top.php file. It should work for you, if you change respective file paths.
<?php /****************************************************************************** * Function: b_tutorials_top_show * Input : $options[0] = date for the most recent links * hits for the most popular tutorials * $block['content'] = The optional above content * $options[1] = How many reviews are displayes * Output : Returns the desired most recent or most popular tutorials ******************************************************************************/ function b_tutorials_top_show($options) { global $xoopsDB, $framebrowse; include_once XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/modules/anime/cache/config.php"; include XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/xoops.ccs"; $block = array(); $block['content'] = "<table width='100%' cellpadding="4" cellspacing=0><tr><td id="animenu" cellpadding="3"><small>"; $myts =& MyTextSanitizer::getInstance(); $result = $xoopsDB->query("select tid, tname, tlink, codes, status, hits, date from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("tutorials")."

I suggest you modyfy you short timestammp to something good looking, like "05 Apr 08", that way it will look nicer while used with above blocks ^_^
Good luck with this module, if you are going to use it, there is lots more bugs in it.. I found it easier to fix it then to write my own xP
