I'm pretty sure it is a well-formed XML structure.  I'll research =
sometime when I'm not at work, or I was hoping someone else would answer =
this for me.  Go check out www.w3c.org.  It won't take long to confirm =
either way.

It couldn't possibly be the output from phpXML.  As I have already =
argued, the phpXML class is unable to represent such a structure =
internally, so it can't output text of this form.

Many XML documents never use a mix of text and elements below a node, =
hence you never see this issue.

I'm intrigued how you manage this.  When I ask phpXML to get_file.  It =
escapes all the <> with &lt; &gt; and I get:

&lt;blah1&gt;
  Text&lt;blah2&gt;more&lt;/blah2&gt;text.
&lt;/blah&gt;

This is not a well-formed XML document as it is both missing a <?xml =
.... ?> bit (easily added) but it more annoyingly doesn't have a root =
node, as the root node has been escaped by &lt and &gt so the blah1 =
element is no longer an element but is now text.
