PHP - XML error: junk after document element at line...

Hi,

I'm trying to use Expat to read XML from a remote source (over http), but I get this error:

XML error: junk after document element at line 460

The thing is line 460 doesn't exist! My XML source stops at line 457 (I used wc to check the actual file). I know that this error can be caused by the structure of the XML, but when I simplified it I still got the same error, here's the basic kind of layout:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss version="custom">
  <channel>
    <website_id></website_id>
    <title></title>
    <link></link>
    <description></description>
    <language></language>
    <item>
        <date></date>
        <object_id></object_id>
        <version_no></version_no>
        <title></title>
        <summary>
        </summary>
        <body>
        </body>
    </item>
  </channel>
</rss>

(The item field is repeated lots of times and I used the term "rss" to ease integration into my CMS, even though it isn't).

Can anyone lend some friendly advice?

Thanks,

James

The thing is I can get the results, but the error still comes up. The code I'm using is an example from http://uk.php.net/xml - Example 2. Map XML to HTML.

Hmmm nevermind, I'm getting the hang of it
