simplexml_load_string -- Interprets a string of XML into
an object.
Description
object simplexml_element simplexml_load_string ( string
data)
This function will take the well-formed xml string data
and return an object with properties containing the data
held within the xml document. If any errors occur, it returns
FALSE.
Example 1. Interpret an XML string
<?php
$string = <<<XML
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<document>
<title>Forty What?</title>
<from>Joe</from>
<to>Jane</to>
<body>
I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
</body>
</document>
XML;
$xml = simplexml_load_string($string);
var_dump($xml);
?>
This script will display:
simplexml_element Object
(
[title] => Forty What?
[from] => Joe
[to] => Jane
[body] =>
I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
)
At this point, you can go about using $xml->body and
such.
