How are you executing the XML file? By calling it with your browser?
You may need to tell your webserver that you want to treat your xml file 
as a PHP document.


You can use .htaccess for this and add something like this:
Files YourXMLFile
 ForceType application/x-httpd-php
/Files

Hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] PHP within XML?

Quoting Ron Piggott ron.pigg...@actsministries.org:



I am trying to figure out if it is possible to have PHP work within  
an XML document.


The application is tracking RSS subscribers IP addresses within the database.

I have wrote functions so the PHP code required is below is minimal,  
after the XML declaration line.


Prior to posting this question I tried to have the PHP at the very  
start, but that doesn’t work, the declaration line needs to be first.


Right now the PHP is displayed as a comment.


In order for your PHP code to be processed the file should be named  
with a .php extension. Since you're writing XML code, you need to send  
an XML header type first:

?php
header (Content-Type:text/xml);

#load RSS XML function

require_once(rss_subscribers_xml.php);

$ip_address = _ip;
rss_subscriber_update($ip_address);

echo '?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?' . \n;
?
Rest of your XML content.


This should work.
