Craftabase: The PHP version

The Craftabase is an experiment in using PHP with XML, to see if I can pull data from an XML file and display it using PHP. Given that I'm so used to using XSLT to display XML data, this is definitely a new experience for me, and so far I've only got a very simple list of crafts from the Craftabase XML file. Bear with me as I explore working with XML and PHP.
