Hello nathan,
I am unsing simplexml as it looks really simple :-)
However, I could still
not figure out how to adress data inside tags with
attributes. For example:
<anhang location="INTERN" gruppe="TITELBILD">
<data>bla blub</data>
$xml->anhang[intern][titelbild]->data will not work.
again, ill need some clarification. are you trying to get the
data node
directly, OR, are you trying to get the contents of all nodes
which are
descendants of anhang nodes, w/ attributes location and
gruppe, having
values INTERN and TITLEBILD respectively?
these are two different the things, the former being, well simple
$xml->anhang->data
the latter i would do via xpath, which SimpleXML supports as well.

I think you hit the nail on the head with XPath nathan;
//anhang[@location='INTERN' and @gruppe='TITELBILD']/data
which would be requiring DOMDocument and DOMXPath
ive been really lazy about testing stuff first today :), but why not
just rock it out w/ SimpleXML,
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);
$searchResult = $xml->xpath('//anhang[@location='INTERN' and
@gruppe='TITELBILD']/data');
at least im just saying you dont NEED DOMDocument & DOMXPath, but def,
that is an alternative to SimpleXML.
-nathan
nice clarification namesake - I've always just dived right in to
DOMDocuments and never gave simplexml much weight; but that's no
reflection on simplexml :p
