How did you try array_reverse? Something like this should work:

 

foreach (array_reverse($xml->result->rowset->children()) as $gen)

Hi kworld,

you are absolutely right when you said that your type of variable is not array. You think that it's array because you can iterate it's in foreach but it's just object implemented iterator interface for instance - http://php.net/manual/en/class.iterator.php. I don't know for what exactly you need reversed array but try to create yourown array by array_unshift (to reverse it) or use xpath to get some element.

cheers!
