Fixed RSS written 2 years ago

I recently noticed my RSS feed wasn’t quite working proper, and was always showing up new feeds. This it turned out was due to dodgy dates being produced by the following function:

    $entry['pubDate'] = date(DATE_RFC2822, strtotime($post['datetime']));

The constant DATE_RFC2822 isn’t available in PHP4. This was fixed with the following code:

    $entry['pubDate'] = date("r", strtotime($post['datetime']));

With “r” being the character for RFC 2822 formatted date, e.g. Thu, 21 Dec 2000 16:01:07 +0200.

Yes it’s raining and I’m bored.
