Passing on XML via PHP

[deathrider]

Hi 🙂

I got a problem and can't figure it out.....i dont think it fully belongs here, but i'll just try 🙂

I got a script which generates XML data (together with a dtd) out of a MySQL Database, which runs fine and displays the data correctly (IE 6.0, displays it as XML colored Data).

I have a second script which sends a request to the first script, asking for the xml data (with fopen()😉, is supposed to display the data in a browser and close the connection again.

Now the problem occurs - the browser doesnt recognise the data as XML anymore and "swallows" the tags when displaying it.

When i look at the Source Code of the page, all tags are there, everything as it should be - but the browser doesnt recognise the data as XML and therefore strips my tags out, just displaying raw data.

I hope someone can help me,
thanks in advance 🙂

Seeing the script you're talking about would help lots.

The problem is probably in the headers. Look at the code to see what headers the first script outputs (should be something about XML), and copy the header() functions to your second script.

But here's my question: What the heck is that second script for??
