Re: XML?

Here's some PHP code I use to do just that:

<xml version="1.0">
<?php
  function returnRecord($resultid, $row, $level) {
    $prepend = "";
    for ( $y = 0; $y < $level; $y++ )
      $prepend .= "\t";

    $record = $prepend . "<RECORD>\n";
    for ( $y = 0; $y < pg_NumFields($resultid); $y++ ) {
      $record .= $prepend . "\t<" . pg_FieldName($resultid, $y) . ">";
      $data =  Trim(pg_Result($resultid, $row, $y));
      $data = ereg_replace("&", "&", $data);
      $record .= $data;
      $record .= "</" . pg_FieldName($resultid, $y) . ">\n";
    }
    $record .= $prepend . "</RECORD>\n";
    return $record;
  }

  $conn = pg_Connect("my database connect string");
  $result = pg_Query($conn, "SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE;");
  $returnData = "";
  $rows = pg_NumRows($result);
  for ( $y = 0; $y < $rows; $y++ )
    $returnData .= returnRecord($result, $y, 1);
  pg_FreeResult($result);
  pg_Close($conn);
?>
</xml>

Hope this helps,

Gavin
