When testing my site
http://proc.mobi
on ready.mobi I get a 3.66 / 5 result. The content shows up in both emulators. It is using php to grab content from a MYSQL database. I'm getting "Valid Markup" and XHTML-MP failures in the test but when I include the line as recommended
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
at the very top of the index.php file no content shows up at all.
If anyone could advise on any glarring errors Id hugely appreciate it.

Sorry the code tags didnt fucnction the way I expected there.
The code Im having trouble with is here:

I try to check your page with an XML validator, but it fails.
Here some tips for validating your page:
Posted by proc 5 years ago
Thanks for replying Roland.
The first post is a bit messy but basically what Im saying is that I tried to include the XML declaration but when I do the page returns a blank.
However, when I remove the stylesheet and XML declaration it passes the XHTML-Mobile-Profile test and Valid Markup test. It gets 5/5 even though I have NOT included a line at the top of the code declaring the XML type...
When I include the XML type the page blanks.

the xml declaration starts with >? like php.
Print the xml declaration with php:
<?php print "<?xml...."; ?>
to avoid this problem.

Use the following php-code as your first line of php:
header('content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
Had the same problem, the xml-declaration seems to confuse the php-interpreter. Keep in mind that the rest of the Xhtml should use the correct charset. This one works on my site.

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately neither worked. Its seems to be extremely finicky.
I tried your advice first Fritz. I put that line after all the other meta/head stuff just below <?php
but it caused this error:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at
/home/procmob/public_html/index.php:23) in /home/procmob/public_html/index.php on line 27
I cant make any sense of that. Theres nothing in the style sheet about xml or headers.
Alternatively if I put it in at the very top of my code (above everything) it just seems to ignore it and I still score 3.66 with the markup errors mentioned above.
Roland's suggestion appeared to work. It looked good in the PC browser and in the Openwave emulator.
However when I test it at ready.mobi it causes some kind of malfunction whereby the browser stalls on the "developer advice" waiting page.
Check it yourself here:
http://proc.mobi/index2.php - very weird....
Does anyone have any templates I could look at or any other suggestions?

The xml declaration has still a missing
?>.Add:
xmllint found an encoding error in line 25:
Posted by proc 5 years ago
Scoring 5 out of 5 now.
Had a missing bracket in an IF statement in my php also.
The reported errors (like all coding) can be a little misleading.
Thank you.

I am having the same problem. Can you explain how you have resolve yours.
I have create a php site flashscore.mobi.
I have place the
xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8 or <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
The page comes up blank. Without that the pages displays okay but scores only 3/5.
How to I solve that?
This what I presently have:
FlashScore - Live Scores and Results
Can somebody help me?

If you use PHP and you add <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> into your document, be sure that
short_open_tagis set to Off.Search about
short_open_tagin yourphp.ini.If you do not want to change your php.ini, create the XML declaration with PHP:

the above code is missing the ? to close the xml.
correct code should be:
btw thanks a lot roland, for the snippet
