Hi

Not sure, but can tag names have spaces in them? If so, can that parser handle them?

What do u mean by that reply.I am a noob and still learning how php works and can u explain to me what u mean parser handle them?

Did you write the XML?

You apparently have things like:

<Reporting Time>Instant</Reporting Time>

The parser thinks the tag name is Reporting . Hence the closing tag should be </Reporting>
The parser thinks that Time is a an attribute, and so should have a value.

If you want to have Reporting Time be a tag name, then you have to get rid of the space.
ReportingTime or Reporting-Time

And no i did not write the xml.I spoken too the owner of the script and he said it someone that he will get too but right now he is swamp since he does coding for a living and pc repairs as well.So i figure i would ask u guys for help

 

[descalzo]

Well, whoever gave you that XML (the file, not the script) gave you improper formatted XML

The first line is what you have. Improperly formatted.
The second line is properly formatted.

<Reporting Time>Instant</Reporting Time>


<Reporting_Time>Instant</Reporting_Time>

So i should change those lines too what u have in the code section.And it should work correctly

I think i might be confusing you.This is the php code that i use

<?php
include("header.php");

                if($siteowner != 1 || $aoff != 1){
print"Access Denied"; include("footer.php"); exit();
