Re: parsing an xml file via php

Hi,

I used clsParseXML. This is the header from the file itself:
/*
XML Parser Class
by Eric Rosebrock

http://www.phpfreaks.com

Class originated from: kris@h3x.com AT: http://www.devdump.com/phpxml.php

Usage:

<?php
include 'clsParseXML.ph p';

$xmlparse = &new ParseXML;
$xml = $xmlparse->GetXMLTree('/path/to/xmlfile.xml');

echo "<pre>";
print_r($xml);
echo "</pre>";
?>

The path to the XML file may be a local file or a URL.
Returns the elements of the XML file into an array with
it's subelements as keys and subarrays.

*/

Maybe you can find this ;)

(I made a little adjustment so that I could use 'in memory' xml (= string with xml).

This site goes into pretty deep detail about how to do it.

http://www.developertutorials.com/tutorials/php/parsing-xml-using-php4-050816/page1.html

It works in PHP5 as well.
