Hi, I am trying to write a programme to read a rss xml file. ... <media:content url="*exampe.jpg*" ...> ... scan anyone tell me how to get the url attribute? I wrote some codes similar: $doc = new DOMDocument; $doc->load($myFlickrRss); $r = $doc->getElementsByTagName('media:content'); for($i=0;$i<=$r->length;$i++) { // help here }

use http://rssphp.net/ you can view the source online and it's all done using DOMDocuments :)

First off, you should be using getElementsByTagNameNS since you are working with a namespaced document. I am assuming its a Yahoo Media RSS feed, so you would get the elements via: $r = $doc->getElementsByTagNameNS("http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/", "content"); Then to output the url attribute value: foreach ($r AS $elem) { echo $elem->getAttribute("url") . "\n"; } Rob
