Hi Alexus,
You are making a mess of thing in more than 1 way.
First you try to write your code in 1 line, making it hard to follow
(for you too appearantly).
Second: You use print_r() in a very strange way.
Third: You don't close your filehandles.


Why don't you open an handle first? How will you close this stream?
And what does that last true mean?
Read here:

http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.fwrite.php

The third argument is the length, not a boolean.

Try this:

$myHandle = fopen('temp.xml ','w+');
$myData = simplexml_load_ string(curl_exe c($test));
echo "Going to write:<pre>";
print_r($myData );
echo "</pre>";
fwrite($myHandl e ,$myData);
fclose($myHandl e);


Regards,

simplexml doesn't cooperate with print_r() or var_dump().

Instead of doing all this in one statement, first fetch the string with
curl_exec() and ensure it worked OK. Then call simplexml_load_ string().

Rather than using print_r(), iterate through the child elements. See
http://www.php.net/manual/en/functio...t-children.php for
an example on how to iterate the child nodes.
