Here's some PHP code I use to do just that:
<xml version="1.0">
<?php
function returnRecord($resultid, $row, $level) {
$prepend = "";
for ( $y = 0; $y < $level; $y++ )
$prepend .= "\t";
$record = $prepend . "<RECORD>\n";
for ( $y = 0; $y < pg_NumFields($resultid); $y++ ) {
$record .= $prepend . "\t<" . pg_FieldName($resultid, $y) . ">";
$data = Trim(pg_Result($resultid, $row, $y));
$data = ereg_replace("&", "&", $data);
$record .= $data;
$record .= "</" . pg_FieldName($resultid, $y) . ">\n";
}
$record .= $prepend . "</RECORD>\n";
return $record;
}
$conn = pg_Connect("my database connect string");
$result = pg_Query($conn, "SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE;");
$returnData = "";
$rows = pg_NumRows($result);
for ( $y = 0; $y < $rows; $y++ )
$returnData .= returnRecord($result, $y, 1);
pg_FreeResult($result);
pg_Close($conn);
?>
</xml>
Hope this helps,
