it's important to note that PHP seems to disregard to first "all encompassing" tag...
for example:
$xmlstr="<order>
<billing_name>Matt</billing_name>
<billing_address>123 Main St.</billing_address>
</order>";
the 'billing_name' would be accessed by:
$xml = simplexml_load_string($xmlstr);
$billing_name = $xml->billing_name;
NOT:
$xml = simplexml_load_string($xml);
$billing_name = $xml->order->billing_name;
Maybe I'm just an idiot, but this took me a few hours to figure out.. (Partly due to the
similiarity between the words "movie" and "movies" in the Movie example at the
top of the page)
haha
hope this helps save someone some time! :)
