In the object2array function posted above, the following data structure would be left unchanged: Array ( [0] => Object Object ( [var] => 1 ) ) The simplexml_load_... functions return structures similar to the above, a simple example: SimpleXMLElement Object ( [USERS] => Array ( [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [NAME] => Joel Fielder [EMAIL] => joelfielder@hotmail.com ) ) ) In order to store such information in the session, we have to convert all of the SimpleXMLElement objects present in the structure: Array ( [USERS] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [NAME] => Joel Fielder [EMAIL] => joelfielder@hotmail.com ) ) ) And here is the code to do so: <?php function object2array($object) { $return = NULL; if(is_array($object)) { foreach($object as $key => $value) $return[$key] = object2array($value); } else { $var = get_object_vars($object); if($var) { foreach($var as $key => $value) $return[$key] = object2array($value); } else return $object; } return $return; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-load-file.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+54914 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54914&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+54914&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
