My first post and I'm just a few days into learning PHP so that I can extract
data from an XML feed for updating a MySQL driven website. Simplexml grabs
most of my data without a problem but I can't get at the data in elements
such as:
<element idtype="11" lang="fr" label="Description - Etage"><![CDATA[Rez de
jardin]]></element>
<element idtype="1" lang="fr" label="Description - Nombre de
pièces"><![CDATA[1]]></element>
<element idtype="2" lang="fr" label="Description - Nombre de
chambres"><![CDATA[0]]></element>
<element idtype="3" lang="fr" label="Description - Surface totale
(m²)"><![CDATA[27]]></element>
I have around a hundred of these elements but only need data from two of
them. I need to extract the CDATA by specifying the idtype and lang
attribute. For example, in the first of these elements, I need to be able to
get out the string "Rez de jardin" by specifying idtype="11" and lang="fr".
Can I use Simplexml to do this and, if so, how? If not, what should I use?
Many thanks for any help.
Terry
