Maybe I'm missing something about XML specifications, but this doesn't seem
right to me.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.simplexml.php
Here is a code fragment I use:
$xml = simplexml_load_string($returnData);
var_dump($xml);
if (is_object($xml))
{
//first lets make sure we didn't get an <ERROR>
if ($xml->error)
{
echo "An ERROR was encountered\n";
echo "CODE: ".((string)$xml->error->code)."\n";
echo "STRING: ".((string)$xml->error->string)."\n";
exit;
}
...
}
I have my XML setup such that if there is an error, I return:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<error code="tbd" string="user not found." />
But simple XML will not detect this as illustrated by var_dump($xml)
object(SimpleXMLElement)#1 (0) {
}
However, if I change my output to be:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<error>
<code>tbd</code>
<string>user not found with those credentials.</string>
</error>
Then I get...
object(SimpleXMLElement)#1 (2) {
["code"]=>
string(3) "tbd"
["string"]=>
string(38) "user not found."
}
Notice also that my object is not nested inside an ["error"] as I would
expect it to be.
So I would expect to get this (in BOTH cases actually):
object(SimpleXMLElement)#1 (1) {
["error"]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#1 (2) {
["code"]=>
string(3) "tbd"
["string"]=>
string(38) "user not found."
}
}
