Exemplos

Exemplo 1. Interpret an XML string

<?php
$string
= <<<XML
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<document>
<title>Forty What?</title>
<from>Joe</from>
<to>Jane</to>
<body>
  I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
</body>
</document>
XML;

$xml = simplexml_load_string($string);

var_dump($xml);
?>

O exemplo acima irá imprimir:

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
  [title] => Forty What?
  [from] => Joe
  [to] => Jane
  [body] =>
   I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
)

At this point, you can go about using $xml->body and such.
