Today, I want to wordpress rss feed submitted to the http://www.feedburner.com to burn, but there was an error “Error on line 2: The processing instruction target matching “[xX][mM][lL]” is not allowed.

In addition, In foxfire enter the feed address, also appeared “XML or text declaration not at start of entity” error, and in opera appeared “XML declaration not at beginning of document” error.

Began looking for a solution, and find a feed validation site http://feedvalidator.org, it can not only find errors in your feed, but also it can tell you how to fix the error.

I get an answer from the http://feedvalidator.org/docs/error/WPBlankLine.html, if an XML declaration (<?xml … ?>) appears in your feed, it must be the first thing in the feed, before any whitespace, so the solution is below:

   1. Check and delete the wp-rss2.php and the file wp-atom.php In <? … ?> Blank lines outside, if you still have problems, went to step 2
   2. Check and delete the wp-config.php file In <? And ?> Blank lines outside, if you still have problems, go to the Step 3
   3. Check and delete your template theme in the functions.php file In <? … ?> Blank lines outside, if there are still problems, to the first step 4
   4. One by one too close to your plug-in, to see whether the problem still exists, if there is no problem, they just now close the plug-ins there is a problem of the php file to open it, and modify, so that should be able to solve the problem.

I tried the above methods, final my feed is ok. Although the issue is resolved, but this solution is the heavy workload, we must honestly open each php file checks, revised again uploaded to the server, activate the plug-in to see if there are problems.

Are there other convenient way to do? The answer is yes, you can develop a plug-in, this plug-in will find all of the php files to see whether the head and tail of blank lines, if there are found, then delete the blank lines, so that need not be so laborious.

2008-12-30 has developed fix rss feed plug-in, you can go to http://www.gofunnow.com/wordpress/plugins/fix-rss-feed-error-wordpress-plugins.htm download this plug-in.

2009-10-28 Review from Downloadtube.com editor team:
“Text Encode Converter is the fastest solution to simultaneously convert thousands of plain text files between any encoding.”

About

Text Encode Converter is an easy-to-use application that can help you batch convert multiple ansi/ utf-8/ unicode plain text documents between any encoding. It can process thousands of files within several minutes.

Text Encode Converter is not a file format converter! fox example can not convert PDF to text or anything else like that. Text Encode Converter just does plain text conversion, fox example can convert .txt text files, .php files, .xml files, .html files etc from ansi encode to utf-8 encode.

This is a terminology mistake that people new to computing sometimes make, mixing up the words “encode” or “encoding” and “format”. Text Encode Converter can convert the encoding of XML and HTML files, however you may need to manually edit the encoding declaration of the resulting file.

Key Features

• Convert text character to and from any encoding (include utf-8,utf-8 no bom,utf-16le,utf-16be,utf-32le,utf-32be,gbk,big5,shift-JIS,euc-jp,euc-kr etc, see Supported Language Encode List), fox example convert ansi encode to utf-8, or convert to utf-16le from utf-8 etc.
• Fast batch convert multiple documents, supports sub-folder, it can process thousands of files within several minutes!
• You can select output to DOS (CR/LF), Unix (LF), Mac (CR) newline format, or not convert source newline format.
• you can use file filters, include words and exclude words in file name or file path to filter files.
• automatically check source file encode format, or assign source file text encode format.
• supports windows and mac os.
• multi-language gui support, now include english, simplified chinese, traditional chinese.

Supported Language Encode List

FAQ

Who would need Text Encode Converter, for what?

* People who get a mess with text encodings, and receive emails or files that don’t display properly, simply because the text encoding is wrong.

* People who have a vast number of text files in an older non-Unicode format that need to upgrade to Unicode. Or perhaps convert from Unicode to an older format for legacy systems.

* People who want to convert DOS (CR/LF), Unix (LF), Mac (CR) newline format.

I have more questions - who should I write to?
