PHP and xml help!

I'm a bit stuck and hope someone can lend a hand. I cannot get the value of, Choice, using simplexml.

Here's the xml:

PHP Code:


		
			
<Choice ID="1000">
<Select NAME="BOB/>
Monday
</Choice>
<Choice ID="1001">
<Select NAME="Mary/>
Tuesday
</Choice>

I am looping through, trying to get the value of Choice, but I get the array of Select. I would like just get the days.

PHP Code:


		
			
$arr = array();
foreach ($Choice AS $choice){
$arr[] = $choice;
}
print_r($arr);

Any ideas?

You're going to want an XML parser to parse the XML into an array.

I guess I should stop resisting using anything else than simplexml.

Use DOM? Don't think you can get the textNode children using simplexml.

Code:

$xml =

'<derp>

    <Choice ID="1000">

        <Select NAME="BOB" />

        Monday

    </Choice>

    <Choice ID="1001">

        <Select NAME="Mary" />

        Tuesday

    </Choice>

</derp>';

$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');

$dom->loadXML($xml);

foreach($dom->getElementsByTagName('Choice') as $choice)

{

    $arr[] = $choice->textContent;

}

print_r($arr);

Off to give DOM a try
