Your XML is not well formed, not properly nested use:
<news id="1" shortDescription="Stuff Happened Today"><![CDATA[Today on <b>1/29/03</b>, stuff happened]]></news>
This way the XML parser wil accept <b> and </b>, otherwise it sees it as XML elements. I hope this helps.

I have various XML files that might contain <> tags inside the element body, for example:
<news id="1" shortDescription="Stuff Happened Today">Today on <b>1/29/03</b>, stuff happened</news>
Because of this I can't use xml_parse_into_struct; when I do this happens:
array (
...
[attributes] => array (
[ID] = "1"
[SHORTDESCRIPTION] = "Stuff Happened Today"
)
[values] = "Today on"
)
and it stops right there on the <b> tag.
What I need to do is this: Clean out ALL occurrences of <tags> that are NOT part of the original XML structure from the contents read from the XML file:
$fileID = fopen('/phil/xml/news.xml', 'r') or die('Could not open XML');
$stuff = fread($fileID, filesize('/phil/xml/news.xml'));
fclose($fileID);
$stuff contains the contents of news.xml, so I would have to do my cleanup in $stuff, BUT.. I can't use preg_replace for tags because then ALL of my tags would be altered and xml_parse_into_struct would fail altogether.
How then do I make sure to ONLY remove the <trash tags> from each XML row body and nowhere else???
Thanx
Phil
