So, you can use the "shut-up" operator (@) in combination with a conditional statement: if (@simplexml_load_file($file)) { // continue } else { echo 'Error!'; } share|improve this answer answered Aug 20 '09 at 16:16 Ignas R 2,53311425 11 Not the shut-up not the shut up, please ! –mere-teresa Aug 20 '09 at 16:21 so something like this? function GetTwitterAvatar($username){ if(@simplexml_load_file("twitter.com/users/".$username.".xml")){

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up XML parser error: entity not defined up vote 18 down vote favorite 3 I have searched stackoverflow on this problem and did find error handling a few topics, but I feel like there isn't really a solid answer for me on this. I have a form that users submit and the field's value is stored in a XML file. The XML is set to be encoded with UTF-8. Every now and then a user will copy/paste text from somewhere and that's when I get the "entity not defined error". I realize XML only supports a select few entities and anything xml error message beyond that is not recognized - hence the parser error. From what I gather, there's a few options I've seen: I can find and replace all and swap them out with or an actual space. I can place the code in question within a CDATA section. I can include these entities within the XML file. What I'm doing with the XML file is that the user can enter content into a form, it gets stored in a XML file, and that content then gets displayed as XHTML on a Web page (parsed with SimpleXML). Of the three options, or any other option(s) I'm not aware of, what's really the best way to deal with these entities? Thanks, Ryan UPDATE I want to thank everyone for the great feedback. I actually determined what caused my entity errors. All the suggestions made me look into it more deeply! Some textboxes where plain old textboxes, but my textareas were enhanced with TinyMCE. It turns out, while taking a closer look, that the PHP warnings always referenced data from the TinyMCE enhanced textareas. Later I noticed on a PC that all the characters were taken out (because it couldn't read them), but on a MAC you could see little square boxes referencing the unicode number of that character. The reason it showed up in
