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):

 xml
version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" '; ?> 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?

Don't know if it is beneficial to you, but this is what I use (and 
wrote) for RSS feeds -


http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/5942.html

Not tried it for podcasts.

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.

Someone slap me upside the head please.

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.


Cheers,
Rob.
