Creating XML via php

[teguh123]

Guys,

I want to create xml via php

If the file end in xml then php code doesn't get executed

If the file end in php than wordpress feedwordpress do not consider that an xml

I tried to create index.php so I can call the url without mentioning the file. Yet feedwordpress still says, no feed found.

What should I do?

In your PHP file, before anything is output execute the following:

<?php
header("Content-Type: text/xml");

Thanks a lot. Now that leads to another question.

Say we use file_get_contents or curl to get the content of a file, is there a way to know what "header" is returned?

say $content=file_get_contents ("http://google.com")

How do I know that http://google.com gives a html rather than an xml?

If you retrieved it via curl, you could ascertain the type via [man]curl_getinfo/man; but I don't know of any way to get the HTTP headers if you retrieve it via file_get_contents().

Thanks. I do plan to use curl actually. I said file_get_contents because that's what's most people are familiar with.
