Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php $str = $root->node; echo "'" . $str{0} . "'<br/>\n"; is the same as echo "'" . $str[0] . "'<br/>\n"; so the first node is fetched whos value is "data". $str[1]'s value NULL since there's only one node.

But then PHP must return error when trying to do so, I think. Reproduce code: --------------- <? $xml = "<root><node>data</node></root>"; $root = simplexml_load_string($xml); $str = $root->node; echo "'" . $str . "'<br/>\n"; echo "'" . $str{0} . "'<br/>\n"; echo "'" . $str{1} . "'<br/>\n"; $str = strval($root->node); echo "'" . $str . "'<br/>\n"; echo "'" . $str{0} . "'<br/>\n"; echo "'" . $str{1} . "'<br/>\n"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- 'data' 'd' 'a' 'data' 'd' 'a' Actual result: -------------- 'data' 'data' '' 'data' 'd' 'a' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33986&edit=1
