NickAlbert Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I need to get the values from an XML result from a URL. Here is what I have tried to work out after reading tutorials, but am stumped as to going further: <? $xmlstr = file_get_contents("https://www.site.com/checksession.asp?clientid=3915&password=byuc0913&wait=60&sessionid=8863AC8A23498DDC27993EF9F6330C50B2B4FDFE"); $reply = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr); $reponse = ""; $completed = ""; $last4 = ""; $approvedamt = ""; ?> Here is the output of the URL in file_get_contents: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <reply> <response>Success</response> <responsecode>0</responsecode> <description>OK</description> <responseurl>/soft/checksession.asp</responseurl> <datablock> <sessionid>8863AC8A23498DDC27993EF9F6330C50B2B4FDFE</sessionid> <completed>yes</completed> <approved>Y</approved> <declinecount>0</declinecount> <gateid>76479220</gateid> <transtype>SALE</transtype> <authcode>191330</authcode> <avsreply>U</avsreply> <cvv2reply> </cvv2reply> <declinestr>OK</declinestr> <cardtype>V</cardtype> <cardname>Visa</cardname> <first6>403491</first6> <last4>4971</last4> <keyed>No</keyed> <expmonth>07</expmonth> <expyear>16</expyear> <approvedamt>9.67</approvedamt> <tip>0</tip> <bal></bal> <invoiceno>22513</invoiceno> <corporatecardindicator></corporatecardindicator> <processor_token></processor_token> </datablock> </reply> Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

AbraCadaver Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 The examples should show you how to access these. Plus, do a print_r($reply) to see the nesting, which is the same as the XML. Try: echo $reply->response; echo $reply->datablock->completed; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/279640-working-with-xml-results-from-a-url/#findComment-1438265 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boompa Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Bad XML. In fact, given the presence of head and div tags, I'd say you're getting back HTML. Maybe your login has expired?

NickAlbert Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 Thanks boompa, had a character off in the session string! Ok now when I run the script it outputs: Successyes How do I have the script just pull the "approved" data and the "last4" data as a string to work with?
