Code to generate an XML sitemap from a text file with URLS. PHP.

sitemap-siteindex.php

<?php
/**
  *
  * This is a quick way to turn a simple text file
  * with a very long list of urls in a text file (sitemap-urls.txt)
  * Where "very long" is an expected url number greater than 10,000
  * If loaded without a valid query parameter "page" it will load a
  * Site Index site map, otherwise load the individual XML site map
  * 10,000 urls into a valid XML Sitemap:
  * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemaps
  * Put this file sitemap.xml.php and sitemap-urls.txt at
  * the webroot http://example.com/sitemap.xml.php
  * Then add the text in quotes below to your robots.txt file as a new line:
  * "Sitemap: http://example.com/sitemap.xml.php"
  * 
  * Questions? email joe@artlung.com

Reported by @Vision20202:

I tried this version but received the following error:
Undefined index: page in .../sitemap/sitemap.xml.php on line 25

line 25: $page = (int)$_GET['page'];
Please help to solve the problem.

Code updated to address this issue.

@Vision20202 I updated to use the null coalescing operator available in PHP7. If you are using something older that won't work. What version of PHP are you using?
