RSS question...

I'm trying to setup a RSS feed for my webcomic. but I'm a little confused by the process...

My attempt was to go to the site Feedburner and setup an account and a feed, and pointed it my site, but I think there is a step I'm missing.

I'm not sure if the XML code the feed references is to be generated automatically or if it is something I have to write myself.

I'm obviously doing something wrong, is anyone familiar with this service or know a better one or know a good dummies book ?

edit: ( I should of put this thread under HELP, sorry about that...)

I use RSSpect. Very easy, and they provide you with the logo and image to use.

Thank you for the link...

I setup a feed with RSSpect and tested it with markup and it works fine
but it seems to ignore the markup when it's embedded in PHP echo statement though.

RSSpect can't know anything about your PHP. It sees your site the same as it shows up in your browser, so if you go to your site, click "view source" and can see the code it requires, you're set.
