Unexpected mime type

Hi y'all,

I tried to get tricky and make an RSS feed with php. The page works flawlessly. However, when I try to validate the feed (at http://feedvalidator.org/) it gives me the following error:

Feeds should not be served with the 'type/subtype' media type

The web server is reporting an unexpected MIME type for a feed. Although we tried to parse it as a feed, aggregators may well report this as an error and act as if the user had pointed them at something other than a feed.

Note: I'm using a .htaccess rewrite to make it appear to be an xml file.

How can I fix this?

Thanks.

Rob

 

Use an the top of the script:
header("Content-Type: application/rss+xml");

 

Thank you. It's amazing how something so little can have such an impact. Thanks again.
