PHP doesn't care what it's embedded in. Just remember to have a header('Content-Type: application/xml'); before your output.

As long as the XML file is parsed by PHP, any embedded PHP within the XML file will execute normally. The problem you are likely to be experiencing is that by default, your XML file will not be parsed by PHP.

To get your web server to parse the XML file with PHP, you could rename your XML file with a .php extension.

If you'd prefer to keep it with a .xml extension and you're using Apache as your web server, you could configure Apache to parse all .xml files with PHP using something like the following in a .htaccess file:

<Files *.xml>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Files>

or by adding .xml extension to this line in your httpd.conf :-

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .xml

You may be able to do something similar with IIS...

As Weedpacket said, remember to use header('Content-Type: application/xml'); at top of your XML file to make sure correct headers are sent.

look what i done till now

<?php

header('Content-Type: text/xml');

require_once('../../Connections/mystique.php');

mysql_select_db($database_mystique, $mystique);
$query_Recordset1 = "SELECT * FROM gallery_thumb";
$Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_Recordset1, $mystique) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);
$totalRows_Recordset1 = mysql_num_rows($Recordset1);
?>

<?php do{?>
<content width="368" height="450" bgcolor="cccccc" loadercolor="ffffff" panelcolor="5d5d61" buttoncolor="5d5d61" textcolor="ffffff">
      <page src="../../allwebcodesign/Admin/gallery/<?php echo $row_Recordset1['foto']; ?>"/>

</content>
<?php }while($row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1));?>

its Pages.php instead of Pages.xml
and i added the code u did in the http.confg
and then i suppose to open the page which is default.html
which brings the images path from the xml
it gave me nothing!!

If you call Pages.php directly from within a browser, do you see the XML output you would expect to see?

Also, did you reload apache?

well,let me explain to u the case
am using a bookflip application downloaded from the net
its is a html pages contains flash which gets its images from the xml file
and the above r the code in the XML file

my problem now,that i wan this images to be dynamically from the database
using PHP
so,am trying to find the way to embed the php into the XML file
so it should be like that

header('Content-Type: text/xml');
$query_Recordset1 = "SELECT * FROM gallery_thumb";
<?php do{?>
<content width="368" height="450" bgcolor="cccccc" loadercolor="ffffff" panelcolor="5d5d61" buttoncolor="5d5d61" textcolor="ffffff">
    <page src="../../allwebcodesign/Admin/gallery/<?php echo $row_Recordset1['foto']; ?>"/>

</content>
<?php }while($row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1));?>

but of course the xml file never read it!!! Got my problem????
