Retrieveing a XML value from an outside website

[faeldray]

This is probably a really easy-to-answer question but I'm having trouble finding that answer. What I'm trying to do it take a value from this page (http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-talents.xml?r=Hydraxis&n=Nicora) and using some sort of PHP script, put the value into this Javascript (http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=embed).

 

The value I want is the talentTree value (all those numbers):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/layout/character-talents.xsl"?>

<page globalSearch="1" lang="en_us" requestUrl="/character-talents.xml">
  <characterInfo>
    <character battleGroup="Emberstorm" charUrl="r=Hydraxis&n=Nicora" class="Hunter" classId="3" faction="Horde" factionId="1" gender="Female" genderId="1" guildName="Hunters Mark" guildUrl="r=Hydraxis&n=Hunters+Mark&p=1" lastModified="July 24, 2007" level="40" name="Nicora" race="Tauren" raceId="6" realm="Hydraxis" title=""/>
    <talentTab>
      <talentTree value="[b]3313322122220200000000000000000000000000000300000000000000000000[/b]"/>
    </talentTab>
  </characterInfo>
</page>

 

And here's what the javascript will look like in the end:

<script type="text/javascript">
var mt_css   = 'blahblahblah.css';
var mt_width = 500;
var mt_class = 2;
var mt_build = '3313322122220200000000000000000000000000000300000000000000000000';
</script>

<script src="http://www.wowhead.com/talent/include.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

 

So how do I put the two together?

Look into the PHP documentation, see if you can't find an XML parser. Just looking at the function reference, I saw SimpleXML.

You can get the file using an appropriate function that can download external files.

Thanks, but I can't use SimpleXML and I don't know what function to use for downloading external files. I know it's a lot of trouble but could I get any other suggestions?
