hi ;) it's pretty simple to do something like this using the DOM functions that handle XPath expressions. when you have that xml loaded in a variable $xml_source all you have to do is: $doc=xmldoc($xmlsource); $xpath_ctx = xpath_new_context($doc ); // show all objects echo "Xpath All"; $result = xpath_eval($xpath_ctx, '//child::*'); print_r($result); // this will show you the structure of the output // all books objects $result = xpath_eval($xpath_ctx, '//book::*'); print_r($result); // book number one: $result = xpath_eval($xpath_ctx, '//book[1]'); print_r($result); xpath is much more powerful than that and i'm pretty sure you can use it the way you want it. some more info about XPath is available here: http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XPathTutorial/General/examples.html Good Luck with that ;) ZeNDeR-X -=> www.ipro.pl <=- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
