What evidence was there to prove that the phlogiston pheory was correct?
1. I believe that theories can only be disproven, not proven. i.e. You create a theory and then you try to disprove it, if you can't then you can consider that theory to be true (convicing other people may be more difficult however). 2. I think the theory you describe is disproven as and todays equivalent is what we now know as 'oxidation'.

No. A theory cannot be disproven. This is a corollary of the fact that a theory cannot be proven either; otherwise it would be a theorem.The correct term for a theory being consistent with evidence and reliable in predictions is validated. The correct term for not being validated, or an overturning of validation, is invalidated.
