Re: XML parser error ..

Delete the initial extra line in:

$xml_data = <<<EOF <?xml version="1.0"?>

The XML Parser expects the XML document to start with a valid XML statement, which in your file is: <?xml version="1.0"?> but yours starts with an newline. $xml_data = <<<EOF //newline <?xml version="1.0"?> onewaylife wrote:

Hi all I am novice in XML. I have just started to creating PHP parser for XML files. I am using SAX. the file is : - <html> <head> <basefont face="Arial"> </head> <body> <?php // cdata handler function characterDataHandler($parser, $data) {

      echo $data . "<p>"; 
} 

// PI handler function PIHandler($parser, $target, $data) {

      // if php code, execute it 
      if (strtolower($target) == "php") 
      {

           eval($data); 
      } 
      // otherwise just print it 
      else 
      {

            echo "PI found: [$target] $data"; 
      } 
} 

// XML data $xml_data = <<<EOF <?xml version="1.0"?> <article>
