yup, I finally got it parsed by simple XML, thank you!
but I got a problem, my xml-string returns many parts like this one:
[xml]
<cardSKU category="Local Dial Tone/Telephone Service" distributor="EWI"
discontinued="false" cardtype="PIN" transactionType="PURC">
<card cardID="180" carrier="Reconex (test)" partNumber="PN-180" region="Optional Services (test)" amount="5" wholesalePrice="4.5" icon="https://www.pinsprepaid.com/image.aspx?name=c38-reconex_logo.gif" upc="870368000420">
<cinfo costPerMinute="" lifetime="0" longDistRate="" roamingRate="" numberOfMin=""/>
</card>
<terms>
Refer to the Reconex brochure for complete terms and conditions.
</terms>
<pinfo type="Optional Services" value="Call Forwarding, Call Waiting, Caller ID, Three Way Calling, Speed Dialing & Non-Published Number"/>
</cardSKU>
[/xml]
and I wanna read information out of it by:
[php]
$xml = simplexml_load_string($data);
/* a few other things like parsing xml that works fine */
foreach ($xml->cardSKU as $cardSKU)
{
array_push($category,(string)$cardSKU['category']);
}
[/php]
but it seems not to work, the array $category stays empty, why that?
Thank you!
