Hi,

when I click in the sidebar on one of this links: XML RSS 0.91 feed
XML RSS 1.0 feed I get this error:

XML-parsefout: XML-declaratie niet aan begin van externe entiteit
Locatie: http://www.thejokersweblog.nl/feeds/index.rss1
Regelnummer 2, kolom 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
^

Sorry, it's partly dutch.

What did I do wrong?

Thanks

You have a newline (enter) before the start of the start of the RSS feed. Usually this is in the language file somewhere. It could be at the very start or end.

To fix this get rid of anything before <?php and after ?>

Hi!

Mostly this happens if you have manually edited any of the serendipity PHP files with an editor. Check all the files you touched.

Check all the files you touched.

I touched too much files. I need hours to find the problem. At which file is it the smartest to start with?

The files you last modified, work from the most recent timestamp downwards.

First search for "<?php" and check if you have any blank spaces before that. Then search for "?>" and check if you have any blank spaces after that.
