[PHP] Can't get my PHP-generated RSS to serve properly
Hey all - Glad some of you found that sample data helpful. :-) I use PHP/MySQL to generate RSS feeds of my podcasts. The feed is submitted as *.xml and I use .htaccess to redirect it to my PHP document. The start of the document sets the right header and outputs the ? ? to prevent PHP from trying to process the leading XML line as code (this is cleaned up a bit for readability): ?php header(content-type: application/rss+xml); echo '?'; ? xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 ?php echo '?'; ? rss xmlns:itunes=http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd; xmlns:atom=http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom; version=2.0 This has always worked fine on one podcast, but on a new one it's not. You can see the results here: http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Finfactvideo.com%2Fpodcast.php It's throwing a 500 error, a parsing error, and complaining that feeds should not be served with the text/html type, even though I'm serving the right header. Other PHP pages on this site work fine, and there are no special Apache directives on my site that works that are missing here. Can anyone suggest what I might be missing? - Brian -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

A 500 error is indicating a failure at the server/script level. The parse error I assume you see in your error logs. Correct the parse error and you should be able to move forward. The text/html error is related to the parse error since that prevents your script from running and properly setting the content type header.

Ugh. Stupid me. Thanks Robert. It was a type elsewhere in my code further down the page. I was so hung up thinking it was an encoding or MIME or delivery problem I didn't think to check my PHP.
