Have you tried using the yahoo api with output=xml so that you get an
xml response? Then you could get your code working with xml that you
know is correct first, then move on to generating your own xml from
the PHP.

You will need to set the header correctly in your PHP so that it is
returned as XML.

Something like:
header('Content-type: application/xml; charset="utf-8"',true);

Then have your PHP spit out XML.

Beyond that I can't help much more since this is kind of outside the
scope of this group and is a broader PHP/XML/Javascript question.
