Issue
I created 2 php files (index.php and header.php). I am trying to test the "include" parameter for headers. I want to test the files locally on my Mac. I cant seem to get it to work.
I downloaded and installed MAMP and everything seems to be working fine. I pointed the document root to the correct folder. When I go to the //localhost:8888 I get a server error message.
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to configure something or do something with the mysql database? Any help would be great.
Thanks.

PHP files:
header.php:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>header</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1> My Logo </h1>
<ul>
<li> <a href=""> home </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> about </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> portfolio </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> contact </a> </li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
index.php:

Server Error Message:
"The website encountered an error while retrieving "http://localhost:8888/". It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
Here are some suggestions: Reload this webpage later.
HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.
Solution
Remove your XML tags in the first line of both files
Also, use only the essencial in the header.php. It isn0t needed but makes better code. Like this:
<h1> My Logo </h1>
<ul>
<li> <a href=""> home </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> about </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> portfolio </a> </li>
<li> <a href=""> contact </a> </li>
</ul>
