Why, as a matter of fact, yes! The data going into the parser needs to be valid, well-formed, XML. I assume you didn't get an error message because you didn't ask to see the error message. The most basic thing you can do is (assuming you've already declared your XML Parser functions... $Contents = '<BLAH>The quick brown fox drowned</BLAH>'; if ( xml_parse($Parser, $Contents) ) { echo "Yipee!\n"; } else { echo "Rejected by parser:\n"; echo xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($Parser)); } Enjoy, --Dan -- PHP scripts that make your job easier http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/ SQL Solution | Layout Solution | Form Solution T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
