It is more likely they are pointing to PHP files because they are creating the RRS feed on the fly (so the latest is sent out). The PHP file is outputting back to the requester the xml...

I'm using a .xml file extension. I've noticed that many blogs are using file extensions like .php rather than .xml. I assume that this so that they can run the files through the server engine and do stuff... like track clicks and whatnot. Am I correct? I noticed that when I change the CFFILE to write out a .cfm with the same XML content. The feed validates no problem, and displays in IE no problem. But it looks really funky in Firefox, not using the standard XML formatting that FF adds. Any ideas why? Thanks!
