You can access XML elements in a SimpleXML object using variables: <? $xml = simplexml_loaf_file(...); print $xml->$element; ?> or use functions: <? print $xml->{getLanguage()}; ?> Note: You Must use { and } or PHP would think you are calling a member function. You can use members of other objects as well: <? print $xml->{$obj->var}; ?> As a real life example; I have used this statement in one of my projects: <? $x = $xrules->listing->fieldtitles->$lang->{$obj->name}->title; ?> As you see, using varialbes and functions as element names are posible in SimpleXML; Thanks to PHP5's object orientaion new features. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.simplexml.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+45997 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+45997&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+45997&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
