Builder templates served as US-ASCII

Rails
1

When I produce an xml output with builder, my webserver’s headers say
it’s encoded as US-ASCII. Since I have iso-8859-1 characters in there, I
would like to change it. I use lighttpd as a web server, but I don’t
think it matters since the Builder templates are produced by rails.

Can anyone help?
Has anyone ever produced an actual valid rss feed using Builder?

Doh, this is embarassing, but it’s not an encoding error :slight_smile:

Try this in your controller somewhere:

headers[‘Content-Type’] = ‘text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1’

Brilliant, thanks!
