We have a page that is creating an rss-feed but it causes some strange behaviour in feed validators.
I look at the server and I see the server settings are up and running. All forms and normal pages are displayed in a nice normal way. I check and see that the pages are displayed with
Content-Type: text/html
Encoding: iso-8859-1
As it should. But if I just edit the link and open the feed.xml and tries to validate it I get a weird result:
Content-Type: text/xml
Encoding: us-ascii
Same db, same setup and everything is similar. When I validate the feed the validator complains that it sees the code as:
01/11/2008 and lastBuildDate must be an RFC-822 date-time.
But when I see the code in my browser I do get the correct format.
The page setup is to display it as “other text/xml” and charset is default.
Happened to anyone else? Or am I missing something in the setup? Nowhere in the server doc do I see “US-Ascii” being used as character set.
