Just starting with xml
building a podcast

have a flatfile mp3 database
can build the xml data OK using PHP

How to feed the xml data to catchers?
Is it sufficient to advertise the feed as, say feed_data.php
where the data is compiled, on-the-fly, using the database, say as: $XML_data
and then echo the xml?

Most examples I find present an xml file.
It is no problem to write such a file but managing it is much more difficult than editing a flatfile.

Is there any special form that is expected.
Is echo "$XML_data"; good enough?

Any comments would be much appreciated.
