It is your problem. You don't have an explicit path, just a 'xmlfile.xml', for example.

Your PATH and all of the rest of your environment don't exist in cron unless you specifically ask for them. Create a new script foo.sh, use it in crontab instead of your php script.
Code:
. .profile
cd /path/to/where/xmlfile/will/live
# run the existing script here
/path/to/php/phpscript.php
