    <p>I am trying to have PHP read an XML file and then convert it to JSON to use in some classes that I wrote. The problem I am having is it will not loop thru all XML nodes.</p> <p>For some reason it will only return one node and not both. My guess is maybe my JSON object is not formatted correctly. I have been messing with this for about 2 days, ugh! I am new to this so go easy on me ;)</p> <h3>tracker.xml</h3> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;tracker&gt; &lt;student&gt; &lt;id&gt;0425655&lt;/id&gt; &lt;lname&gt;Doe&lt;/lname&gt; &lt;fname&gt;John&lt;/fname&gt; &lt;/student&gt; &lt;student&gt; &lt;id&gt;0123456&lt;/id&gt; &lt;lname&gt;Smith&lt;/lname&gt; &lt;fname&gt;Jane&lt;/fname&gt; &lt;/student&gt; &lt;/tracker&gt; </code></pre> <h3>xml.php</h3> <pre><code>class xml { private $path; public function __construct($path) { $this-&gt;path = $path; } public function xmlParse() { $xml = simplexml_load_file($this-&gt;path); return json_encode($xml-&gt;children()); } } </code></pre> <h3>json.php</h3> <pre><code>class json { private $xmlArray; public function __construct($xmlArray) { $this-&gt;xmlArray = $xmlArray; } public function getJSON() { $json = json_decode($this-&gt;xmlArray); foreach($json-&gt;student as $v) { return 'ID: '.$v-&gt;id.'Last: '.$v-&gt;lname.'First: '.$v-&gt;fname; } } } </code></pre> <p>I know I can pass <code>true</code> as a second parameter to <code>json_decode()</code>, but I wanted to work with objects.</p> <p>Here's the output for the <code>json_decode()</code> (after passing it through getJSON for formatting):</p> <pre><code>{ "student": [ { "id": "0425655", "lname": "Doe", "fname": "John" }, { "id": "0123456", "lname": "Smith", "fname": "Jane" } ] } </code></pre>

    1. COYour class is poorly-named. So is your question title.

    2. COWhat's wrong with the JSON output? It looks fine to me. You should explain what output you're _looking for_, and how it differs from what you're _getting_.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
