note 74717 added to function.simplexml-load-string

It's worth noting that in the example above, $xml->body will actually return an object of type SimpleXMLElement, not a string, e.g. SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => this is the text in the body tag ) If you want to get a string out of it you must explicitly cast it using (string) or double quotes, or pass $xml->body (or whatever attribute you want to access) to any function that returns a string, such as urldecode() or trim(). ---- Server IP: 69.39.81.135 Probable Submitter: 63.210.45.222 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-load-string.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74717 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74717 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74717 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
