Have you considered using 'SimpleXML functions' or 'DOM functions' (not
'DOM XML functions'; they are old and klunky) to do it? They are simpler
(particularly--you guessed it--SimpleXML). I can post you a brief
example if you like, but you may well have no trouble. CC me personally
if you want the example as I may not see a reply on the mailing list.

I am reading the following xml data in a very large file using XML reader, the
xml structure looks like the xample given below
<item>
<engine>head</engine>
<brake>tail</brake>
<tires>head</tires>
<chromes>part head 1</chromes>
<chromes>Part head 2</chromes>
<seats>tail</seats>
</item>
<item>
<engine>head</engine>
<brake>tail</brake>
<tires>head</tires>
<chromes>part head 1</chromes>
<chromes>Part head 2</chromes>
<seats>tail</seats>
</item>
I can read all elements apart from the sub elements under <tires> and am kind
of looking for a way to read these sub elements. I am using the code structure below
$reader = new XMLReader();
$reader->open($feedUrl);
while($reader->read())
{
switch($reader->nodeType)
{
case(XMLREADER::ELEMENT):
if($reader->localName == "engine")
{
echo $reader->value;
}
if($reader->localName == "brake")
{
echo $reader->value;
}
if($reader->localName == "tires")
{
echo $reader->value;
//I FIGURE OUT THAT I SHOULD BE ABLE TO READ THE SUB ELEMENTS HERE
BUT TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT
}
}
}
Any thoughts ?
Cheers
