This is a very simplistic way to traverse xml nodes and childnodes using the DOMDocument class <?php $xml ='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <root> <Parent> <child>child 1</child> <child>child 2</child> <child>child 3</child> <subParent> <Grandchild>Grandchild 1</Grandchild> <Grandchild>Grandchild 2</Grandchild> <Grandchild>Grandchild 3</Grandchild> </subParent> </Parent> <Parent> <child>child 4</child> <child>child 5</child> <child>child 6</child> <subParent> <Grandchild>Grandchild 4</Grandchild> <Grandchild>Grandchild 5</Grandchild> <Grandchild>Grandchild 6</Grandchild> </subParent> </Parent> </root>'; $doc = new DOMDocument(); $doc->preserveWhiteSpace = false; $doc->loadXML($xml); $i=0; while(is_object($finance = $doc->getElementsByTagName("Parent")->item($i))) { foreach($finance->childNodes as $nodename) { if($nodename->nodeName=='subParent') { foreach($nodename->childNodes as $subNodes) { echo $subNodes->nodeName." - ".$subNodes->nodeValue."<br>"; } } else { echo $nodename->nodeName." - ".$nodename->nodeValue."<br>"; } } $i++; } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 67.83.25.171 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/domdocument.getelementsbytagname.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/109860 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109860 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/109860 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
