XSLT for a dynamicaly generated xml php page

[hame22]

Hi all

I have 3 files

a xsl stylesheet file, a php transformation file and a php file that dynamicaly produces xml from a mysql database.

what i want to do is transform the xml in the php file with the xsl stylesheet through the php processor file.

However i have encounted a number of problems due to the fact that my xml is generated in a php file.

the error i recieve is this
XSLT processing error: XML parser error 4: not well-formed (invalid token)

and my processor file is this:


Code:

<?

// Xml and XSL files
$xml_file = "test.php";
$xsl_file = "xml2.xsl";

// Allocate a new XSLT processor
$xh = xslt_create();
$fileBase = 'file://' . getcwd () . '/';
xslt_set_base ( $xh, $fileBase );

// Process the document
$result = xslt_process($xh, $xml_file, $xsl_file);
if (!$result) {
  // Something croaked. Show the error
  echo 'XSLT processing error: ' .xslt_error($xh);
}
else {
  // Output the resulting HTML
  echo $result;
}

// Destroy the XSLT processor
xslt_free($xh);

?>

it works fine if i use a standard xml file -- $xml_file = "test.xml";

however i require the xml to be dynamically generated due to an id variable and php is the way of doing this.

Does anyone have any idea how I can do an xsl transformation on a php file that generates xml??

thanks in advance
