Hi phpmob,

Your parser error is in this line,

<?php xml version="1.0" ?>

Isn`t that should be,

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

Hi phpmob,

Well I tested your code in the browser and it works fine for me. I have commented the header part since i`m testing it out in the browser.

<?php
//header ('Content-type: application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml');
?>
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Test page XHTML-PHP</title>
</head>

<body>
<h1>TEST IPHONE APP </h1>
<p>hey its working !!!!</p>
</body>
</html>

<head>
Test page XHTML-PHP
</head>

Please try to use proper XHTML code.

have u tested in the testiphone simulator

niroshan

Hi phpmob,

No i tested this in my local machine and it worked fine but as soon as i upload that to my server it gave me the same error.

The reason behind this is, in my local machine i had short_open_tag to off but in the server it was on so when you put,

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

The PHP try to parse it and in return it gaves an error. So check your php.ini file.

Thanks,
Best regards,

Ask your hosting provider. They may have PHP setup so that it looks for a custom php.ini file in a certain location, or you might be able to use a .htaccess file to modify PHP directives.

If you don't have access to the base php.ini file (on shared hosting you wouldn't), you can put a directive in an .htaccess file to set it. (According to the manual you can also use ini_set() to turn short_open_tags off, which I find surprising, because it would need to be run before the script has even been parsed).

There are code-based workarounds, but unless you want to go through changing all of your source files they're to be avoided.

You could just echo out the XML declaration ...

<?php echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>'; ?>

Weedpacket

Yes, that's what I was trying to avoid 🙂
