'xmlParseEntityRef: no name' warnings while loading xml into a php file

Question

I am reading an xml in php using simplexml_load_file. However while trying to load the xml it displays a list of warnings

Warning: simplexml_loa         


        

Answer 1

The XML is most probably invalid.

The problem could be the "&"

$text=preg_replace('/&(?!#?[a-z0-9]+;)/', '&', $text);

will get rid of the "&" and replace it with it's HTML code version...give it a try.
