how to display http_post in php?

Question

I've got this http_post xml sending in my android project:

try {
            xml_input();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
            Log.e("Hiba!", "Xml_input fgv hivasa");
        }

        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://users.atw.hu/festivale/xml_post.php");
        StringEntity se;
        try {
            se = new StringEntity(globalconstants.xml_out, HTTP.UTF_8);
            se.setContentType("text/xml");
            httppost.setHeader("Content-Type",
                    "application/soap+xml;charset=UTF-8");
            httppost.setEntity(se);

            HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            BasicHttpResponse httpResponse = (BasicHttpResponse) httpclient
                    .execute(httppost);

            HttpEntity r_entity = httpResponse.getEntity();
            String xmlString = EntityUtils.toString(r_entity);

            System.err.println("Error...." + xmlString);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

How can i display this in on my php site?
And is this a good xml sending if i want some rules etc. sending to a server?

just pass your xml String in a POST Parameter , and then display it in PHP via : `$xml = $_POST['yourParameterXML']; echo $xml;` — Houcine, Mar 11 '13 at 15:08
that's what i don't understand what is the my parameter? because i do not send any parameters not like this:List params = new ArrayList(); — david, Mar 11 '13 at 15:09

You can access http_post data using $_POST superglobal associative array in php. Like-

echo $_POST['foo'];

i understand that... but how do i send this 'foo' with this code?because no such line as: List params = new ArrayList(); – david Mar 11 '13 at 15:12
@david Try to set content-type header to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded". And send plain text to see if the data is even sent or not. – ShuklaSannidhya Mar 11 '13 at 15:24
but how can i display this on the php site? because now i do not send any parameters as you said like 'foo'... – david Mar 11 '13 at 15:30
@david have you tried `print_r($_POST)`? – ShuklaSannidhya Mar 11 '13 at 15:51
