copied!<p>You could try use <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">xpath</a> instead of your nested loops method..</p> <p>Running the query </p> <pre><code>gallerylisting//folder[@subfolder="yes"]/text() </code></pre> <p>on your xml doc given above using <a href="http://www.xmlme.com/XpathTool.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this xpath tester</a> gives the results Events and Beach_Clean_2010, which is what I think you want. The query will find all folder elements under the root node gallerylisting, and if they have a subfolder attribute equal to "yes", the text in the node will be returned. </p> <p>So, in PHP, we have</p> <pre><code><?php $xmldoc = new DOMDocument(); $xmldoc->load('gallerylisting.xml'); $xpathvar = new Domxpath($xmldoc); $queryResult = $xpathvar->query('gallerylisting//folder[@subfolder="yes"]/text()'); foreach($queryResult as $result){ echo $result->textContent; } ?> </code></pre> <p>Im not a PHP guy, so I am trusting the code in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/230592/xpath-query-with-php">this StackOverflow question</a> works. One thing to be aware of is that using the //name in xpath means find all nodes descended from the current position that match the name. This can be very slow on large documents. </p> <p>It seems there is multiple ways to process xpath with PHP. An example from <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/php/func_simplexml_xpath.asp" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this page</a> does the query like so: <pre><code> $result = $xml->xpath("gallerylisting//folder[@subfolder="yes"]/text()"); print_r($result); ?> </code></pre>

Querying!
