DOMDocument :: loadXML（）：期望开始标记：“<”

Question

I have again a problem and at the moment XML isn't nice to me... Why I'm getting this error message and how can I solve it?

I get the error message by every XML file!

Error Message:

PHP Warning:  DOMDocument::loadXML(): Start tag expected, '<' not found in Entity, line: 1 in C:\Users\Jan\PhpstormProjects\censored\Matcher.php on line 36
Warning: DOMDocument::loadXML(): Start tag expected, '<' not found in Entity, line: 1 in C:\Users\Jan\PhpstormProjects\censored\Matcher.php on line 36

Code:

function loadTitlesIntoArray($tagName, $path){

$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->loadXML($path);

$titels = array();
$marker = $dom->getElementsByTagName($tagName);

for ($i = $marker->length - 1; $i >= 0; $i--) {
    $new = $marker->item($i)->textContent;
    array_push($titels, $new);
}

print_r($titels);
}

loadTitlesIntoArray('title', $kinguinPath);

XML:

loadXML is expecting a string of XML but you are trying to give it a file path. Try load. Or, you can load the XML file into a string and then call loadXML.
