            $moyenne_services = round( $moyenne_services,1);

            $moyenne_ge =  ($row['services'] + $row['serviceCli']  + $row['interface'] + $row['qualite'] + $row['rapport'] ) /5;

(PS: FF /chrome echoes that without tag : bc2x56.99.89.8081ckras1710.09.0080crazy-fun-game11010.010.00100crystal-serv349.79.69.509.60dedicore69.49.38.609.21)

XML Preamble should be on its own line. Your tag <GamerCertified> is not recognized as a tag.

Just add start the tag on a new line and the error will go away.

EDIT: Please try this,

 $xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>' . "\n";
 $xml .='<GamerCertified>';

I think the problem is somewhere else. Try using the following code:

$xml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>";

instead of:

$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>';

This is because you are storing the whole XML text in a PHP variable, which sometimes go awry.

Also please take care that you don't print any whitespace character before the XML start tag (<?xml...). And just use one carriage return (like the "enter" key of your keyboard) after the XML definition end tag (...encoding="UTF-8"?>), so as to start your XML's first start tag (<GameCertified>).

Hope it helps.

Well, first off, remove the spaces before the opening <?php tag. Second, is that the only file in the script? Are there any non-whitespace characters occurring after the </GamerCertified> tag? If so, that's most likely the issue.

I had the same problem.

finaly found that it was the include file (in your case the "DBconnection.class.php" file)

the include files was saved on utf-8. The file editor have the option to save in "utf-8" or "utf-8 without BOM" changing to the second option for my include files worked out for me... and removed the content before the xml tag.
