How to send Content-Type header? (for RSS xml feed)

Hello,

I'm stumped - how do I create an RSS feed? ((like the one you get when you click the RSS button in the TBS 2.0b1 forum))

Making the XML content is not the problem...

But I cannot seem to see how to get TBS to send the header so that the browser sees the output as XML

Using standalone PHP I would do:
header("Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8");

So, how do I send the Content-Type header from inside TBS???

You can't use TBS to send the header, you just have to put your header php line into the php file where you $tbs->LoadTemplate('the TBS template');.

If $tbs->Show(); sends a different header, you might try $tbs->render(); instead.

Hi,

The TBS forum just send a

  header('Content-Type: text/xml');
the way NeverPanic described above.

That is the same for the Excel plug-in which makes XML-Excel files.
