SimpleXMLElement Object into array

[rodeored]

How do I put the value of an SimpleXMLElemen t Object into any array

If $title is SimpleXMLElemen t Object ( [0] =Mother )

how do I get "Mother" and put it in an array ? ;

if I echo $title, it says "Mother" but if I put it in an array
$myarray=array( $title);
the array is Array ( [0] =SimpleXMLEleme nt Object ( [0] =>
Mother ) )
I don't want that I want
Array ( [0] =>Mother) )

You might need to type cast the values (either implicit or explicit).

if I echo $title, it says "Mother" but if I put it in an array
$myarray=array( $title);

It looks like you can directly cast $title to be an array:
$myarray = (array)$title;

- for other purposes you could also consider:
$myarray = array( (string)$title );

To access a SimpleXMLElemen t's content you have to cast it to a string.
Sometimes this happens automatically, for example if you print it out or
use any other function that accepts strings values, in cases like above
you have to cast explicitly.
