simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 1: parser error : Space required after the Public Identifier

[Roadirsh]

Hi,

The error come from the function PubMedAPI::load_xml_from_url.
I got this error regularly on my website that use your class, it's really good so thank you, but I can't seems to figure this error out. I suppose that it is returning this error when the pubmed api is returning a 404 or any other webpage and not XML, maybe when the website is down, but how can I prevent simplexml_load_string to not failed if it is not and XML.

Thanks.

I performed the update to https on both lines for 'esearch' and 'efetch' (lines 42 & 43) but I am still getting an error from line 66: $this->count = int($xml)->Count;

I note that you didn't make any other changes to the file. Does it still work for you?

Thanks

Yes I did'nt get any other error since this change...

Are there any specific settings required for the server to permit an SSL query? Doesn't seem to make sense that it works for you but not for me if I have already have made the appropriate changes to the query string to https.

If you do var_dump($xml) juste before the ligne 66 what do you get ? @budflanksteak

I get: bool(false)

I assume that means that $xml is not an object?

Exact, so there must be an error in your search. Open a question on stackoverflow maybe ?
