The alleged gospel of Philip mentioned by Dan Brown of Da Vinci Code was not written by the apostle Philip. It only bears his name because he is mentioned in it. He is the only apostle to be mentioned. It is obvious from the thesis he is not the author as it is written in the third person. It is clearly not his work. Yet, it is erroniously called 'the gospel of Philip'.

Most authors don't write much after they are dead.
Every story in the bible, old and new alike, were written many years after the stories they depict.
Just for instance, one of those 4 gospels you mention says Jesus was born in Nazareth. It's an unfortunate archeological fact that Nazareth didn't exist until after Jesus died.
It's pretty well known that the Gospels have many inconsistancies and were obviously written long after Jesus and anyone who knew him was dead. Additionally many hundreds of Gospels were written by Copic's, among whom anyone who wanted to be someone had to write a "Gospel". You're confusing these literary messes with other Gospels that were written at the same time as the 4 Gospels, and others that actually predate those accepted 4 Gospels.
The Gospels were based on many sources, including a supposed Q source which did in fact have true quotes from Jesus himself. Whether it was soneone who knew someone, or a written testament by someone who knew Jesus is open to debate, but personally I'd like to see it found.
The moral of the story is ageless - Don't believe everything you read.

There are many other untruths about the Da Vinci Code which can be dismantled. The Temple of Zion did not exist before 1957. How can that be authentic?

You are right. St John the forth gospel writer was 90 when he wrote his gospel. By then the other gospels had been written. They are therefore rightly called 'the canon' and the rule of the church. Their teachings cannot be altered.
All the other alleged gospels were written hundreds of years after the original event. Therefore they are suspect. The infancy gospels are a case in point.

Early Christianity relied mostly on an oral tradition with the gospels having surfaced in writing 70-150 years later. Mark may have been a bit earlier, but not much. Even then, the gospels weren't immediately accepted by the early Christians.
