PHP and XML

[c_pattle]

I have an XML document with this tag in it and I wanted to get the attribute values such as "fair", "33" and "18"

 

<yweather:condition text="Fair" code="33" temp="18" date="Thu, 01 Jul 2010 11:50 pm BST"/>

 

I have this code, however I get this error "

Fatal error: Call to a member function getAttribute() on a non-object in /var/www/nmic/index.php".  Can anyone help?

 

$xdoc = new DomDocument;
$xdoc->Load('http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?p=UKXX1270&u=c');
$candidatename = $xdoc->getElementsByTagName('yweather:condition')->item(0);
$attribNode = $candidatename->getAttribute('text');
echo "Attribute Name is :".$attribNode->name;
echo "<BR>Attribute Value is :".$attribNode->value;

The XML feed you are getting from yahoo is actually a RSS feed. It would be much easier if you download an rss reader class from phpclasses.org and let the parser get the correct information for you instead of parsing it manually.

 

I hope this helps
