xml display

[Anon]

hi ,
im trying to display the results of a query to a mysql database in xml form for file transfer, however the only way i can get the browser to display the actual tag brackets is to leave whitespace between the brackets and the text at the moment. could someone please help me to get the browser to display the tags so that i can continue with my project as im banging my head against a brick wall at the moment! at the moment im using echo "<tag>".$row[0]."</tag>", but it looks like the browser thinks im writing html tags that it doesnt understand.,
thanks
ken

Try using htmlspecialchars. i.e.

echo htmlspecialchars("<tag>".$row[0]."</tag>");

this will conver the tags into a veiwable format.

Mark.
