    If you are planning on using this function to serve a json file, it's
    important to note that the json generated by this function is not ready
    to be consumed by javascript until you wrap it in parens and add ";" to
    the end.



    It took me a while to figure this out so I thought I'd save others the aggravation.



    <?php

        header
    ('Content-Type: text/javascript; charset=utf8');

       
    header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://www.example.com/');

       
    header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 3628800');

       
    header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE');

       

       
    $file='rss.xml';

       
    $arr = simplexml_load_file($file);//this creates an object from the xml file

       
    $json= '('.json_encode($arr).');'; //must wrap in parens and end with semicolon

       
    print_r($_GET['callback'].$json); //callback is prepended for json-p

    ?>
