Hi,

I have used the following script to consume REST webservices provided by Commission Junction. I'm able to get the response but the response is not in xml format.
PHP:
<?php

$targeturl="xxxxxxxxxx";
 
$CJ_DevKey= "xxxxxxxxx";

// return xml feed from CJ

$ch = curl_init($targeturl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, FAlSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Authorization: '.$CJ_DevKey));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

echo $response; // will print in browser all country codes in an xml format

/*

ADD YOUR OWN CODE HERE TO DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH THE RESPONSE.  MAYBE SAVE RESULTS TO A FILE OR THE PARSE THE RESULTS INTO A DATABASE?

*/

?>
I'm just confused. Isn't that the response when using REST webservices is always in xml format. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Would someone please have a look at this script and suggest me what I need to do in order to get the response in xml ? I want to save the response in xml file and then process it later.

What I did is just saved the code into php file and opened it using my browser and the output is all text. Am I doing something wrong ?
 
try html_entity_decode

PHP:
$convert = html_entity_decod($response);
echo convert
