A simple example is using simplexml to parse rdf. I grabbed an rdf from phpbuilder.com, and it worked wonderfully. Grabbed one from slashdot, and failure. Reproduce code: --------------- grab slashdot rdf http://slashdot.org/slashdot.rdf parse with: <?php $rdf = simplexml_load_file('slashdot.rdf'); ?> <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bordercolor="#0000FF"> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <td style="background-color:blue; color:white;"><?php echo $rdf->channel->title; ?></td> </tr> <?php foreach ($rdf->item as $item) { // this dump shows the correct data, but emptiness below // var_dump($item); ?> <tr> <td> <a href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>"><?php echo $item->title; ?></a> </td> </tr> <?php } ?> </table> </td> </tr> </table> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24392&edit=1
