Note Submitter: aaron dot henderson at gmail dot com ---- Like others I found the xml2array function by aerik just brilliant, but had a problem with the regex not getting all the nodes on the same level. After tinkering with the regex and function for a while I was able to get it to work and get everything into the array. <?php function xml2array ($xml) { $xmlary = array (); if ((strlen ($xml) < 256) && is_file ($xml)) $xml = file_get_contents ($xml); $ReElements = '/<(\??\w*)\s*\t*([^>]*)(?:\/>|>(.*?)<(\/\s*\1\s*)>)/is'; $ReAttributes = '/(\w+)=(?:"|\')([^"\']*)(:?"|\')/s'; preg_match_all ($ReElements, $xml, $elements); //print_r($elements); foreach ($elements[1] as $ie => $xx) { $xmlary[$ie]["name"] = $elements[1][$ie]; if ( $attributes = trim($elements[2][$ie])) { preg_match_all ($ReAttributes, $attributes, $att); foreach ($att[1] as $ia => $xx) // all the attributes for current element are added here $xmlary[$ie]["attributes"][$att[1][$ia]] = $att[2][$ia]; } // if $attributes // get text if it's combined with sub elements $cdend = strpos($elements[3][$ie],"<"); if ($cdend > 0) { $xmlary[$ie]["text"] = substr($elements[3][$ie],0,$cdend -1); } // if cdend if (preg_match ($ReElements, $elements[3][$ie])){ $xmlary[$ie]["elements"] = xml2array ($elements[3][$ie]); } else if (isset($elements[3][$ie])){ $xmlary[$ie]["text"] = $elements[3][$ie]; } $xmlary[$ie]["closetag"] = $elements[4][$ie]; }//foreach ? return $xmlary; } ?>
