Doesn't the DOM have the getAttribute() method?

Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk

It's not in my reference, though I see it in the PHP manual now. This is what I have: _____________________________ $dom = new DomDocument(); $dom -> load("items.xml"); $topics = $dom -> getElementsByTagName("item"); echo("<ul>"); foreach ($topics as $node ) { echo("<li>". $node -> hasAttributes() ."</li>"); } echo("</ul>"); ______________________________ I'm replacing hasAttributes() with getAttribute() but its throwing me an error, I'm probably using it incorrectly. I think I'm drowning in the deep end =/ Could you advise Gamesmaster ?
