RE: [PHP] XML HELP

I got it to work with the following code. Thank you so much for your help. The problem is now back to the beginning, I can not get the $Line value, which is the data I want to be pushed into an array. I did not get an error with the code below, but I did not get any information when printing the array. <?php //$Symbols[] = 'ek'; //$Symbols[] = 'et'; $Symbols[] = 'IKN'; $StockStuff = array(); $URI = 'http://quotes.nasdaq.com/quote.dll?page=xml&mode=stock&symbol='; function StartHandler($Parser, $ElementName, $Attr='') { print "<b>$ElementName:</b> "; } function CharacterHandler($Parser, $Line) { array_push($StockStuff, $Line); print "$Line<br>\n"; } function EndHandler($Parser, $ElementName, $Attr='') { } while ( list(,$Sym) = each($Symbols) ) { $Contents = implode( '', file("$URI$Sym") ); $Parser = xml_parser_create('ISO-8859-1'); xml_set_element_handler($Parser, 'StartHandler', 'EndHandler'); xml_set_character_data_handler($Parser, 'CharacterHandler'); if ( xml_parse($Parser, $Contents) ) { echo 'YES!<br>'; } else { echo 'NO!<br>'; } xml_parser_free($Parser); } print "1st Position in the array = $StockStuff[0]<br>\n"; ?> -----Original Message----- From: Christopher J.
