Derick Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-26 15:59:09] nickv@shift2solutions.com Writing a script that POSTed XML query to a java servlet, the servlet would crash, saying that the XML document didn't follow the DTD... the call went something like this: echo htmlspecialchars(td_msg_query($blah->MsgXML())); This would always give an error. However, whenever we did this: $test = $blah->MsgXML(); echo htmlspecialchars(td_msg_query($test)); It would work just fine. $blah is an XML string builder class and td_msg_query does HTTP POSTs via php sockets. a string is returned from MsgXML containing an entire XML document. td_msg_query returns the response from the server after the POST.
