	  $zip->addFile($file);
	}
	$zip->close();
	header('Content-Type: application/zip');

$files = array("*xml"); line is trying to find a particular *.xml file and not all the xml files in the directory

Okay so uncomment the line

$files = glob("*.xml");

and comment

$files = array("*.xml");

The glob() function returns an array of filenames or directories matching a specified pattern.
