Question

I tried to validating my XML, but I did not get a proper response, anyone tell me how to validate my post operation? And what is the way of bulk posting with free of category and location?
I have free account in Craigslist. I use this code:
<?php error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
$name='my username';//$_POST['name']; // Get from form or get from DB one per xml
$password= 'my password';//$_POST['password'];
$id='my account ID';//$_POST['id'];
$xmlStart='<?xml version="1.0"?>
