PHP to dynamically generate XML

Hi,

I am interesting in using PHP to dynamically create an XML document and
then use XSLT to transform to XHTML. I have come across two methods for
doing this. I made two equivalent examples so you can see what I mean.

I am interested in critisim of how I implemented each method. However
my main problem is deciding between methods. Which method is better for
bigger programs where the bits of the XML data are assembled by various
php functions that I write?

For example, one php function queries a database table for a list of CD
titles. A second php function loops through this CD title list and gets
the track listing for each CD from another table in the database. Then
the composite XML data (ie. CD title and tracks as nodes) can be
tranformed to XHTML.

I hope this is clear. I think it is probably pretty standard and I'm
sure many people do exactly what I want to do.

Thanks,
Peter
