Generating an RSS feed

I’m writing my own blogging tool (in php, not perl - more to learn more of php than anything). And I was all ready to get pinging with pingomatic and I realised that I’m sorely missing an RSS feed. Well, this article on generating a feed came in very handy, very handy indeed.

In fact, the only thing it seemed to miss was the guid field. And because that’s the same as the permalink in my case, adding that was simplicity itself.

<guid isPermaLink="true"><?php echo $url; ?></guid>

:)
