[PHP-INSTALL] XML parser error 3: no element found - can't figure this out!!

Sat, 13 Mar 2004 15:58:00 -0800

I'm no expert with PHP, and was in between moving servers when this issue popped up. no I've got two servers, and need to make that full transition soon! This is a long letter because it contains all my code, sorry for that. Any help on this would be appreciated, because I'm in a serious pinch.

Ok, so I get this error when trying to transform my XML with PHP:

Warning: Sablotron error on line 1: XML parser error 3: no element found in /home/httpd/vhosts/noctambus.com/httpdocs/reviews/xml/standardbrowser.php on line 85

Below is the PHP code I've been using:



<?php

$CONF_XSL_FILE = "/home/virtual/site4/fst/var/www/html/reviews/xsl/standardbrowser.xsl";
$CONF_XML_DIR = "/home/virtual/site4/fst/var/www/html/reviews/xml/";


$transformer = new XSLTransformer();

if ($transformer->setXsl($CONF_XSL_FILE) &&
$transformer->setXml($CONF_XML_DIR . $x))
{
    $transformer->transform();
    echo $transformer->getOutput();

} else {

    echo $transformer->getError();
}

Why am I getting this error? My XMl document, as well as my XSlL see to be ok. My PHP 4.3.3 never gave me a problem like this. What's going on?

Thanks!!!
