SimpleXML Class

Could you help me clarify one thing that I don't understand... let's put it simple, just imagine that I have a tiny XML document with a list of movies: <movies> <title> <i>Gone</i> with <b>the</b> wind </title> </movies> I want to read this XML file and write the name of the first (and only) movie in the list; for this reason I have choose to use SimpleXML since it was looking quite user-friendly. But there's a thing I don't understand... when I have some children, how do I understand which is the first child and which is the last ? I have tried to write this, but I'm getting a wrong result: instead of "Gone with the wind" I got "with wind Gone the", because I understand that the tag <title> contains all the text that is not formatted, and then it writes all the children of <title>: <i>Gone</i> and <b>the</b> <?php $xml = new SimpleXMLElement("<movies><title><i>Gone</i> with <b>the</b> wind</title></movies>"); echo ($xml->title . " "); foreach ($xml->title->children() as $element) { echo ($element . " "); } // Returns "with wind Gone the" ?> I'm using PHP 5.2.5, could you tell me what am I doing wrong ? Thank you
