Hi I have an XML generated by another computer application. The format is as below. (Don't worry about the data in the XML. Its the test data). I am able to locate the correct member bill using XPATH. However I have hit a bottleneck. I am unable to echo all the <line> elements. This is what happens $row = simplexml_load_string($member->asXML()); echo $line->particular1; echo $line->amount1; echo $line->particular2; echo $line->amount2; Echoes the first <line> element of the member bill. If I add the same set of statements it echoes the second <line> element and so on. But then if I put the following code which I feel is correct $row = simplexml_load_string($member->asXML()); foreach ($row->line as $line); { echo $line->particular1; echo $line->amount1; echo $line->particular2; echo $line->amount2; } Echoes only the last <line> element of the member. Can someone tell me what's wrong -----------------The XML file ------------------------------------------------- <bill> <clubname>The Great Eastern Club</clubname> <address>Anna Road</address> <city>Madras</city> <title>BILL</title> <member> <membernumber>A00000099</membernumber> <billnumber>Bill no. : A00000099/APRIL 10</billnumber> <membername>Raman C V</membername> <billdate>Run date : 03/05/2010</billdate> <memberaddress1>NO 33,MUGAPPAIR ROAD,</memberaddress1> <memberaddress2>PADI,</memberaddress2> <membercity>CHENNAI</membercity> <memberpostalcode>600032</memberpostalcode> <memberphonenumber>9840012345</memberphonenumber> <preface>STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS AND BILL FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL-2010</preface> <columnh1>Particulars</columnh1> <columnh2>Debit</columnh2> <columnh3>Receivables</columnh3> <columnh4>Credit</columnh4> <line> <particular1>Opening Balance</particular1> <amount1>275.14</amount1> <particular2>-</particular2> <amount2>0.00</amount2> </line> <line> <particular1>CHARGES</particular1> <amount1>33.09</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>MINIMUM USAGE</particular1> <amount1>220.60</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>SUBSCRIPTION CHARGES</particular1> <amount1>220.60</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>WATER CHARGE</particular1> <amount1>22.06</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>Total Debit</particular1> <amount1>771.49</amount1> <particular2>Total Credit</particular2> <amount2>0.00</amount2> </line> <line> <particular1>Amount to be Received</particular1> <amount1>771.49</amount1> </line> <note>Hereafter no reminders will be sent for payment of monthly/Arrears bills.</note> </member> <member> <membernumber>A00000100</membernumber> <billnumber>Bill no. : A00000100/APRIL 10</billnumber> <membername>Sandeep</membername> <billdate>Run date : 03/05/2010</billdate> <memberaddress1>NO 12,</memberaddress1> <memberaddress2>TNAGAR,</memberaddress2> <membercity>CHENNAI</membercity> <memberpostalcode>600017</memberpostalcode> <memberphonenumber>9840012365</memberphonenumber> <preface>STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS AND BILL FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL-2010</preface> <columnh1>Particulars</columnh1> <columnh2>Debit</columnh2> <columnh3>Receivables</columnh3> <columnh4>Credit</columnh4> <line> <particular1>Opening Balance</particular1> <amount1>496.38</amount1> <particular2>-</particular2> <amount2>0.00</amount2> </line> <line> <particular1>ENTERTAINMENT CHARGES</particular1> <amount1>33.09</amount1> <particular2>17/06/2010 CASH PCR/000544/10-11</particular2> <amount2>124.00</amount2> </line> <line> <particular1>MINIMUM USAGE</particular1> <amount1>124.00</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>SUBSCRIPTION CHARGES</particular1> <amount1>220.60</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>WATER CHARGE</particular1> <amount1>22.06</amount1> </line> <line> <particular1>Total Debit</particular1> <amount1>896.13</amount1> <particular2>Total Credit</particular2> <amount2>124.00</amount2> </line> <line> <particular1>Amount to be Received</particular1> <amount1>772.13</amount1> </line> <note>Hereafter no reminders will be sent for payment of monthly/Arrears bills.</note> </member> </bill>
