Bottom: PHP content rewriter

Instead of checking the User-Agent request-header, you can also check Accept. I think
this is a better method, because you can also detect other browsers that can't handle
application/xhtml+xml. I always use this PHP code:

<?php
if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT'], "application/xhtml+xml") !== false) {
header("Content-Type: application/xhtml+xml");
} else {
header("Content-Type: text/html");
}
?>

(Mind the PHP opening tag <?php: this is the recommended way to start a PHP script.
See http://www.php.net/language.basic-syntax for more details.)
