$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://localhost/1.0/?method=player.getPlayQueue'); 


foreach($hmm->tracks->track as $tracks) {
    $artist = $tracks->artist;
    $title = $tracks->title;
    $album = $tracks->album;
    $index = $tracks->index;
$id = $tracks->id; 

//If we submitted the form
if('.$artist.'="eminem")

perfect.  now if i want if 1 variable equals another, i tried this, but i think i screwed up in getting my variable for $index1

 

$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://www.durhamit.ca:8181/1.0/?method=player.getActiveIndex'); 


foreach($hmm->player-command as $inde) {    
    $pc = 'player-command'
    $index1 = $inde->value;

$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://www.durhamit.ca:8181/1.0/?method=player.getPlayQueue'); 


foreach($hmm->tracks->track as $tracks) {
    $artist = $tracks->artist;
    $title = $tracks->title;
    $album = $tracks->album;
    $index = $tracks->index;
$id = $tracks->id; 

//If we submitted the form
if($value = $index1)

To check if you got $index1 properly you could do something like:

echo "This is Index1: ".$index1;

anywhere after it has been defined.

 

Plus you are not using the ==:

$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://www.durhamit.ca:8181/1.0/?method=player.getActiveIndex');


foreach($hmm->player-command as $inde) {   
    $pc = 'player-command'
    $index1 = $inde->value;

echo "This is Index1: ".$index1; //<--- Added for error checking

$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://www.durhamit.ca:8181/1.0/?method=player.getPlayQueue');


foreach($hmm->tracks->track as $tracks) {
    $artist = $tracks->artist;
    $title = $tracks->title;
    $album = $tracks->album;
    $index = $tracks->index;
   $id = $tracks->id;
   
//If we submitted the form
if($value = $index1) //<--- Here. Should be '==' not '='

Well, you forgot a couple of things in your code:

 

foreach($hmm->player-command as $inde) {   
    $pc = 'player-command'; //<--- Forgot the semicolon
    $index1 = $inde->value;

echo "This is Index1: ".$index1; //<--- Do not need the extra ' '

$hmm = simplexml_load_file('http://www.durhamit.ca:8181/1.0/?method=player.getPlayQueue');

foreach ($hmm->tracks as $tracks) {

I think it may be that you are not defining the $pc before you call it:

foreach($hmm1->$pc as $inde) {   
    $pc = 'player-command';
    $index1 = $inde->value;

 

You may want to try this:

    $pc = 'player-command';

foreach($hmm1->$pc as $inde) {  
    $index1 = $inde->value;

 

or

 

foreach($hmm1->player-command as $inde) {  
    $index1 = $inde->value;

you forgot to close your style tags:

 

if($value == $index1)
{

   echo '<table border="0" width="70%" align="center">';
   echo '<tr>';
   echo '<td width="2%"><font color="FFFF1A"><u><i>'.$index.'</i></u></font></td>'; //<--- Here
   echo '<td width="33%"><font color="FFFF1A"><u><i>'.$artist.'</i></u></font></td>'; //<--- Here
   echo '<td width="33%"><font color="FFFF1A"><u><i>'.$title.'</i></u></font></td>'; //<--- Here
   echo '<td width="32%"><font color="FFFF1A"><u><i>'.$album.'</i></u></font></td>'; //<--- And Here
   echo '</tr>';
   echo '<tr>';
   echo '<td colspan="4"><hr></td>';
   echo '</tr>';
   echo '</table>';
