Parsing XML contains single quote

[becu]

Hi,

I'm trying to parse XML data, but every time the <title> tag contains a single quote, part of the title to the left of the single quote disappear. Can anybody help me to fix this?

 

ex: John's bookstore

 

this case, I can only get "bookstore"

 

Thank you.

<?php
$str = "<root>
        <name>test</name>
        <items>
            <item>
                <id>1</id>
                <title>john's bookstore</title>
            </item>
            <item>
                <id>2</id>
                <title>the bookstore</title>
            </item>
        </items>
        </root>";

$xml = simplexml_load_string($str);

echo '<pre>', print_r($xml, true), '</pre>';

foreach ($xml->items->item as $x)
{
    echo "$x->id : $x->title <br/>";
}
?>

results -->
1 : john's bookstore 
2 : the bookstore
