fwrite error

I've created a small php script that writes info for a podcast to a database, then, when a differen't is pressed, it creates an XML file for that. I do this by opening an SML file with the w attribute. However, I always the error statement in my if/else test when I run it. I cant seem to figure out why. I've give the file 777 permissions also.

Heres the part that writes the XML:

[code]
function compilePodcastXML() {
mysqlConnect();

// open file
$xmlfile = fopen ('podcasts/podcast.xml', "w");

// select SQL records
$sql = "SELECT * FROM podcasts";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
$podcast = mysql_fetch_array($result);

// Write first, static part of XML File
$date = date("D, M d Y H:i:s O");
$xml = "<?xml version="1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
<rss xmlns:itunes=\"http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd\" version=\"2.0\">
  
  <channel>

    <title>xxx</title>
    <description>xxxdescription>
    <link>xxx</link>

    <copyright>xxx</copyright>

           <itunes:email>xxx</itunes:email>
    </itunes:owner>

    
    <itunes:category text=\"Transportation\">
         <itunes:category text=\"Podcasting\" />
    </itunes:category> "; // END STATIC XML
    
// write item statements
for ($i = 0; $i < $num; $i++) {

$xml .= "
    <item>
        <title>".$podcast['title'][$i]."</title>
        <link>".$podcast['infolink'][$i]."</link>
        <guid>".$podcast['mp3url'][$i]."</guid>
        <description>".$podcast['description'][$i]."</description>
        <enclosure url=\"".$podcast['mp3url'][$i]."\" length=\"".$podcasts['filesize'][$i]."\" type=\"audio/mp3\" />
        <category>Podcasts</category>
        <pubDate>".date("D, M d Y H:i:s O", $podcast['pubdate'][$i])."</pubDate>
        
        <itunes:author>DVA CRJ Team</itunes:author>
        
        <itunes:subtitle>".$podcast['Isubtitle'][$i]."</itunes:subtitle>
        <itunes:summary>".$podcast['Isummary'][$i]."</itunes:summary>
        <itunes:duration>".$podcast['Iduration'][$i]."</itunes:duration>
        <itunes:keywords>".$podcast['Ikeywords'][$i]."</itunes:keywords>
        
    </item>
    ";
}

// finish up xml file
$xml .= "  </channel>

</rss>";

if (fwrite ($xmlfile, $sml)) {
print ("Podcast XML file created successfully.");
$doneBy = $_SESSION['f_name'].' '.$_SESSION['l_name'];
$date = time();
$query = "INSERT INTO adminLog VALUES ('','Podcast','Publish','$doneBy','$title','$date')";
mysql_query($query);
} else {
print ("Error creating XML file.");
}

?>
[/code]


Any ideas?

Thanks!

Yup that's correct, I hate it when I miss little things like that. However, now I have a differen't problem, when it prints the <item> tags to the xml file it dosen't print the whole string from the database. It prints this:

[code]
<item>
        <title>t</title>
        <link>h</link>
        <guid>h</guid>
        <description>t</description>
        <enclosure url="h" length="" type="audio/mp3" />
        <category>Podcasts</category>
        <pubDate>Wed, Dec 31 1969 17:00:01 -0700</pubDate>
        
        <itunes:author>DVA CRJ Team</itunes:author>
        
        <itunes:subtitle>t</itunes:subtitle>
        <itunes:summary>t</itunes:summary>
        <itunes:duration>t</itunes:duration>
        <itunes:keywords>k</itunes:keywords>
        
    </item>
[/code]

I cannot seem to find why it's only printing that. I've checked the databases and there is no problem there. Any ideas?
