Hello!
I've looked and searched and tried to find information about how to solbve this
problem, but I can't. I'm beginning to think that I should start from scratch
to do it right.
I am trying to parse the data from the weather channel in PHP. A slice of the
data looks like this:
<weather ver="2.0">
<cc>
<lsup>3/4/05 8:50 AM Local Time</lsup>
<obst>Vastera s, Sweden</obst>
<tmp>-7</tmp>
<flik>-12</flik>
<t>Mostly Cloudy</t>
<icon>28</icon>
<bar>
<r>1,010.8</r>
<d>steady</d>
</bar>
<wind>
<s>10</s>
<gust>N/A</gust>
<d>180</d>
<t>S</t>
</wind>
<hmid>83</hmid>
<vis>10.0</vis>
<uv>
<i>0</i>
<t>Low</t>
</uv>
<dewp>-9</dewp>
<moon>
<icon>22</icon>
<t>Waning Half, Last Quarter</t>
</moon>
</cc>
</weather>
Now, <cc> is "Current Conditions" and that's the part I would want to fetch. IN
order to read this and handle it in PHP I would very much like to read all the
data into an array. In other words, I would like the above in this format:
Array
(
[weather] => Array
(
[ver] => 2.0
[cc] => Array
(
[lsup] => >3/4/05 8:50 AM Local Time
[obst] => Vasteras, Sweden
[tmp] => -7
[flik] => -12
[t] => Mostly Cloudy
[icon] => 28
[bar] => Array
(
[r] => 1,010.8
[d] => steady
)
[wind] => Array
(
[s] => 10
[gust] => N/A
[d] => 180
[t] => S
)
[hmid] => 83
[vis] => 10
[uv] => Array
(
[i] => 0
[t] => Low
)
[dewp] => -9
[moon] => Array
(
[icon] => 22
[t] => Waning Half, Last Quarter
)
)
)
)
Which obviously would be the same as defining it like this:
$data = array(
"weather" => array(
"ver" => "2.0",
"cc" => array(
"lsup" => ">3/4/05 8:50 AM Local Time",
"obst" => "Vasteras, Sweden",
"tmp" => "-7",
"flik" => "-12",
"t" => "Mostly Cloudy",
"icon" => 28,
"bar" => array(
"r" => "1,010.8",
"d" => "steady"
),
"wind" => array(
"s" => 10,
"gust" => "N/A",
"d" => 180,
"t" => "S"
),
"hmid" => 83,
"vis" => 10.0,
"uv" => array(
"i" => 0,
"t" => "Low"
),
"dewp" => "-9",
"moon" => array(
"icon" => 22,
"t" => "Waning Half, Last Quarter"
)
)
)
);
Is there ANY way to get the XML data in to this format in a easy and painless
way? I would very much like to just have it this way:
$data = xml_to_array($x mldata);
Thanks for any help!
