You are getting the expected output, you are just not viewing it
properly. You need to add the appropriate Content-Type header so the
browser knows it is an XML document:

header('Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8');

Otherwise, the server will send the default type, which is probably
text/html.

That panel does not display the original source code but and an
interpretation of it. In this case, the code misinterpreted as HTML and
fixed to fit.

Use the browser's "View source" feature instead (or run the script from
the command line).
