note 74386 added to ref.simplexml

It is a grave misfortune that this doesn't work: <? $node = new SimpleXml; echo $node->{"namespace:tagname"}[attribute']; ?> Instead you have to go through loops! <? $namespace = $node->children( 'namespace' ); $attributes = $namespace->tagname->attributes; echo $attribute['attribute']; ?> AFAICT there is no simpler way. SimpleXml is great in premise, but useless for things like RSS feeds, which lets face it, most PHP development with XML is about.
