Search the php.ini file for short tags (possibly short_tags) and make sure it is set to off. Note however, that if you have an older app, it may require these types of PHP tags to function. In that case, you could use an echo (or print) as the last line of PHP and output the line of XML you need instead of putting it as standard output after the ?> closing tag for the PHP.
