The last comment on http://php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-load-string.php is what you need:

simplexml_load_string($xmlstring, 'SimpleXMLElement', LIBXML_NOCDATA);

I have an xml file with a cdata element like the one below. How would I use the php xml functions to extract that cdata and save it as a pdf file?

<attach id="2" display-name="207069.pdf" file-name="207069.pdf" obj- type="1" system="0">
<![CDATA[eJysumVQW1/0NtoWK95CcXe3EFxK8QDBCQ5 ...... ]]>
</attach>



The code I have is this...

$in = fopen("test.xml", 'r');
$XMLStr = '';
while (!feof($in)) {
$LineNumber++;
$XMLStr .= fgets($in);
}
$XML = simplexml_load_string($XMLStr);
foreach($XML->props->attachments->attach as $Attachment){
print_r($Attachment);
}
The output looks like this...

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] => Array
      (
          [id] => 2
          [display-name] => 207069.pdf
          [file-name] => 207069.pdf
          [obj-type] => 1
          [system] => 0
      )

)
