Comment:

 I'm sure that's because of the `echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\"
 encoding=\"$encoding\"?>\n";` declaration at the top of each of our pages,
 which I crafted to strictly adhere to the XHTML standard, not caring too
 much about how bad IE handles that particular line, I admit. I don't think
 it's a server level PHP issue or anything of the sort.

 Personally I have no feeling about catering to such a broken browser as IE
 (there's always Firefox for Windows ;-), but I guess we could remove that
 line even if only for the purpose of giving MacPorts a wider net-surfing
 audience...
