That error message shows the problem: it's not valid xml - "<?xml" must be the
first characters encountered in the newly created file. Guessing that at the
_very_top_ of your php code there is this line missing:
<?php header('Content-type: text/xml');
If that doesn't work, would need to see more of your code.
Just a heads up too, using "short tags" (<?) instead of <?php can run you into
trouble down the road if using Apache/PHP, short tags are not the default and
if moving your code to a different server your program may break.
