Hm, I still don't see why you'd pass the SOURCE through an XML validator. You
pass the OUTPUT through a validator; sure.
Surely you're not going to get very far trying to write XML-validated PHP
source code; kinda rules out using "&&" ... unless you start jumping through
hoops with CDATA or something. Then again I don't know enough about how an XML
validator would react to the contents of a <?php ?> processing instruction.
