echo "<SECTION>\n<BLAH VALUE=\"$fromform_value1\">\n<FOOBAR
VALUE=\"$fromform_value2\"></SECTION>";
Reformat as you want, I just didn't want to write multiple "echo" lines. =P
Or..
<xml>
<SECTION>
<BLAH VALUE="<?php $val?>">
<FOOBAR VALUE="<?php $val2?>"
</SECTION>
</xml>

Subject: [PHP] Generate XML files

>
> <SECTION>
> <BLAH VALUE="">
> <FOOBAR VALUE="">
> </SECTION>

> 2) Receive the values of "BLAH" and "FOOBAR" from, say, a Web form.
> 3) Output an XML file with the values of "BLAH" and "FOOBAR", like:
>
> <SECTION>
> <BLAH VALUE="203">
> <FOOBAR VALUE="666">
> </SECTION>
>
> 4) Store said XML file with the data in a text field in a database.
