You can also load an xml file instead of string to create the <code>simplexml</code> object if needed. see <code>simplexml</code> documentation for more info.</p> <p>ADDITION</p> <p>Using string (tested and works):</p> <pre><code><?php $xml_input = <<<XML <user_information> <user url="http://usersweb.com"> <name>Arnold</name> <lastname> <name>Arnoldson</name> </lastname> <age>42</age> </user> <user url="http://anotheruserweb.com"> <name>Arnold</name> <lastname> <name>Arichson</name> </lastname> <age>42</age> </user></user_information> XML; $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml_input); foreach ($xml->user as $value) { if ($value->name == 'Arnold' && $value->lastname->name == 'Arnoldson') { $attr = $value->attributes(); echo $attr['url']; } } ?> </code></pre> <p>Using file (should work exact same):</p> <pre><code><?php $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml_file_path, 0, true); foreach ($xml->user as $value) { if ($value->name == 'Arnold' && $value->lastname->name == 'Arnoldson') { $attr = $value->attributes(); echo $attr['url']; } } ?> </code></pre> <p>In the object construct, I added the arguments 0 and true, which allows you to use a file path for the first argument instead of a string. But yes, you could also use the load file function as well.</p>
