Say I want to get reqJob and print it onto the page.

 

Also I would need to get the BaseData of the iconRaw canvas.

Use SimpleXML and an XPath query. If there's only the one in the whole document,

//int[@name='reqJob']

[Bryce]

Do you think you could write an example?

I'm new to working with XML's

[Bryce]

Now im getting an error when I do:

$xml = simplexml_load_string(file_get_contents($XMLLocation));
echo $xml->int[@name='reqJob'];

 

error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting ']' in C:\wamp\www\coketown\pages\item.php on line 4

[Bryce]

I got it working sorta, but when I do the following code it returns nothing, no errors:

$ItemInfo = new SimpleXMLElement(file_get_contents($CatogoryLoc."/".$ItemID.".img.xml"));
$reqJob = $ItemInfo->xpath("//int[@name='reqJob']");
echo $reqJob[0];

 

But when I do:

$ItemInfo = new SimpleXMLElement(file_get_contents($CatogoryLoc."/".$ItemID.".img.xml"));
$reqJob = $ItemInfo->xpath("//int[@name='reqJob']");
print_r($reqJob[0]);

 

It Returns:

SimpleXMLElement Object ( [@attributes] => Array ( [name] => reqJob [value] => 0 ) )

 

But It has "=> 0" and the value is 0.

(By the way, I'm using a new XML document, the only thing different is the value of reqJob)

[Bryce]

Fixed it, I did:

$ItemInfo = new SimpleXMLElement(file_get_contents($CatogoryLoc."/".$ItemID.".img.xml"));
$reqJob = $ItemInfo->xpath("//int[@name='reqJob']/attribute::value");
echo $reqJob[0];
