I am trying to include the latest post from a tumblr blog in my website, which works fine. I can't figure out how to choose a specific size of photo from the API, such as the 500px photo. <?php $numPosts = 3; $feedURL = "http://jeffhui.tumblr.com/api/read/?num=$numPosts"; $xml = simplexml_load_file($feedURL); foreach($xml->posts->post as $post){ $title = (string) $post->{'regular-title'}; $posts = (string) $post->{'regular-body'}; $photo = (string) $post->{'photo-url'}; $caption = (string) $post->{'photo-caption'}; echo"<h2>".$title."</h2> <p>".$posts."</p> <p><img src=".$photo."></p> <p>".$caption."</p>"; } ?> Some one posted this online and say it has to loop through them like this, but I dont know how to apply the bellow script into my. <?php $xmlResult = file_get_contents($tumblr_url_aktuell); $xml = simplexml_load_file($tumblr_url_aktuell); foreach($xml->posts->post->{'photo-url'} as $photoURL){ if((string)$photoURL['max-width'] == '500'){ $image = $photoURL; } } ?>

Thank you it work

One last question, in order to print the info of John Doh, I get nothing with the code below: echo $xml->model->name("John Doh")->info; I think i did somthing wrong there.

Thanks Barand, that's a better solution for me =)

I am not very experience with PHP MYsql database, my website is not run on a database. but I try to make the updating part as simple as I can, by ftp a folder with images and the album name will be the folder name. and you are right this is why things getting so messed up. Maybe I should learn how to create a data base gallery.

I guess all I can do at this moment is to add a "-" in between the first and last name. (for now). this is a link in my internal server, might be a bit slow. http://64.56.236.148/iconmodels.ca/women_fashion.php Please find top roll, 3rd image from the left "Alicia-A" is there any way to replace the "-" with a space in the echo''; ?

Yes, just when I attempt to add a space in a tag as bellow: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <library> <women_fashion> <Adriana>height 5'10, bust 34, waist 24, hips 35, dress 10, hair brown, eyes green.</Adriana> <Eva>This is the model info of Eva</Eva> <John Doh>This is the model info of John Doh</John Doh> </women_fashion> </library> and I got this error log: Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: info.xml:6: parser error : Specification mandate value for attribute Doh in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line18 Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: <John Doh>This is the model info of John Doh</John Doh> in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line 18 Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: ^ in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line 18 Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: info.xml:6: parser error : expected '>' in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line 18 Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: <John Doh>This is the model info of John Doh</John Doh> in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line 18 Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: ^ in C:\xampp\htdocs\Iconmodels.ca\women_fashion.php on line 18 And so far I will need a space in between the tag, because I am using the folder name as the album person name. Are there anyway to do a tag with a space?

I see the issue now, because some of my folder name is as follow: <John Doh>This is the model info of Alicia</John Doh> With a space after the first name: and i got an error say : parser error : Specification mandate value for attribute Doh are there anyway to make that work if there will be space in my folder name?

its not readying the xml. and there are no error message but it just didn't show anything from my xml

I am having issue on my PHP photo gallery. The album name is generate by the folder name as below: '. $_GET['album' So what I am trying to do is to show some external xml date in the gallery base on different albums name, I now tested with 3 different albums with the folder name Adriana, Alicia and Eva. Once again the album name is generate by the folder name. $folder_name = $_GET['album']; echo $folder_name; The above code is working to get the title on specific folder name of that album. Next I have a external xml file with different info for each album. Which I would like to show different info for each album. my xml file as below: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <library> <models> <Adriana>This is the model info of Adriana</Adriana> <Alicia>This is the model info of Alicia</Alicia> <Eva>This is the model info of Eva</Eva> </models> </library> I first tested with this code to make sure it can read the "info": <?php $url = 'albums/Adriana/info.xml'; $xml = simplexml_load_file($url); $info=$xml->models->Adriana; echo $info; ?> Above code works fine, but what I really need to do is something like this, and this is the part that I got an error. $info=$xml->models->$folder_name; Please let me know what am i missing on the above line.

Thank you! so much it work!!!

Thanks for the reply, with the above code will only show the local date. what I am trying to do is the pull the date from a Tumblr XML API as below. <posts start="1" total="77"> <post id="38470857535" url="http://myblog.tumblr.com/post/38470857535" url-with-slug="http://myblogblog.tumblr.com/post/38470857535" type="photo"date-gmt="2012-12-21 16:38:51 GMT" date="Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:38:51" unix-timestamp="1356107931" format="html" reblog-key="3ZWYJfgn" slug="" width="1064"> And I used the code below to call it: <?php $request_url = "http://myblog.tumblr.com/api/read?start=0&num=1"; $xml = simplexml_load_file($request_url); $date = $xml->posts->post ['date']; in order to get the posting date I need to "= $xml->posts->post ['date'];" so is there anyway to do something like = $xml->posts->post ['date'("D, d M Y", strtotime($date)];

Hi PHP expert, I am trying to read the post date from my tumblr api with the following code. $date = $xml->posts->post ['date']; echo '<p>'.$date.'</p>'; This is what I get from the above code "Wed, 21 Nov 2012 13:32:00" My question is, are there anyways I can get the date with out the hour, min and seconds? for example "Wed,21 Nov 2012"?

Just checked with my Hosting company, and they did have url wrappers turned off. So this suggestion by Premiso work, with the following code: $url = "http://jeffhui.tumblr.com/api/read?start=0&num=1"; $ch = curl_init(); $timeout = 5; // set to zero for no timeout curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout); $result = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); $xml = simplexml_load_string($result); Myself prefer simplexml, so I just called my Hosting company and they did that on there server: allow_url_fopen = On allow_url_include = On Now everything back to normal =) Thank You guys!

I am trying to pull XML content from Tumblr into my website.
