Hey all, I've run into a snag trying to use some XML output from NOAA.
what NOAA when its at home?
The problem is that some of the fields it sends to me have a hyphen in
the name. Simple XML then creates objects with hyphens in their name.
So here's the object I am having issues with:
object(SimpleXMLElement)#7 (2) {
wind-speed => object(SimpleXMLElement)#9 (2) {
name => string(10) Wind Speed
value => array(37) {
0 => string(1) 4
1 => string(1) 4
...
33 => string(3) 328
34 => string(3) 338
35 => string(3) 350
36 => string(3) 350
you could have trimmed that down a bit.
}
}
}
And here's my code issues:
$xmlobj->data->parameters->direction access works fine.
$xmlobj->data->parameters->direction->value works fine. Gives me the array.
first turn up error reporting to full
error_reporting( E_ALL | E_STRICT );
$xmlobj->data->parameters->wind-speed returns an int value of 0.
$xmlobj->data->parameters->wind-speed->value gives me an error:
then try something like (I'm guessing this might work, then again
the behaviour of simpleXML [especially auto/magic casting] is greek to
me):
$xmlobj->data->parameters->{'wind-speed'}
$xmlobj->data->parameters->{'wind-speed'}->value
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in noaa.php on
line 59
So, what am I doing wrong? The only thing I can think of is the - in the
wind-speed object name.
Any help would be appreciated!
