I have created a database called friends with four columns:
Name / Address / City / State

I also made an XML file to coincide with those variables:
<test>
         <contacts>
                 <friends>
                         <name>Friend 1</name>
                         <address>999 Foo Avenue</address>
                         <city>Foo Town</city>
                         <state>FO</state>
                 </friends>
         </contacts>
</test>

The variables in the XML doc above are already in the database


BUT - what I want to do - using PHP and MySQL - is something like this:

$connection = mysql_connect("localhost", "foo", "bar") or die ("Could not 
connect to server.");
$db = mysql_select_db("friends") or die ("Could not select database.");
$sql = "select * from friends order by name asc";
$sql_result = mysql_query($sql, $connection) or die ("Could not execute 
query.");

echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>\n";
echo "<?xml-stylesheet type=\"text/xsl\" href=\"friends.xsl\"?>\n\n";

echo "<test>\n";
echo "\t<contacts>\n";
echo "\t\t<friends>\n";

echo "\t\t\t<name>";
echo "$name";
echo "\t\t\t</name>\n";

echo "\t\t\t<address>";
echo "$address";
echo "\t\t\t</address>\n";

echo "\t\t\t<city>";
echo "$city";
echo "\t\t\t</city>\n"

echo "\t\t\t<state>";
echo "$home";
echo "\t\t\t</state>\n";

echo "\t\t</friends>";
echo "\t</contacts>";
echo "</test>";

?>



Can this be done and am I going about it the right way?
