Daniel0 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 XML is plaintext. You can open it in any editor. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/204516-opening-xml-documents-saved-on-my-computer/#findComment-1070911 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cags Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 It's probably something to do with this... xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:datatypes" dt:dt="bin.base64" I don't know a great deal about xslt etc, but I'd imagine that the bin.base64 represents that the contents of the tags are base64 encoded.

tibberous Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 It might be base64 encoded data - try putting the garbled text into base64_decode? echo base64_decode("AAZ4SCkzB84bN3PK"); ? I'm not even 100% sure why you'd uses base64 - might be a way to escape the data for xml, since you won't get special character (< , &) that can break xml.
