Hi,
I am working with an XML document and have a SimpleXML object whose var_dump looks like this:
---
object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (10) {
["@attributes"]=>
array(1) {
["id"]=>
string(7) "3854857"
}
["type"]=>
string(7) "Article"
["createDate"]=>
string(25) "2006-09-06T16:42:20-07:00"
["editDate"]=>
string(25) "2007-07-16T09:15:53-07:00"
["creator"]=>
string(19) "Michael Gottfredson"
["status"]=>
string(5) "ready"
["field"]=>
...snip a bunch of stuff...
}
---
Assuming the above object is referenced by $current_object, I can access the values of most stuff with $current_object->creator or whatever. However, I cannot figure out how to access the value of id. I tried the following, none of which worked for me:
1. $current_object->@attributes->id (gives Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '@', expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or '{' or '$' in /Applications/apache/htdocs/test.php on line 33)
2. $current_object->'@attributes'->id (gives Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or '{' or '$' in/Applications/apache/htdocs/test.php on line 33)
3. $current_object->{@attributes}->id (no error but is null)
4. $current_object->{'@attributes'}->id (no error but is also null)
Does anyone know how I can reference the value of id? Thanks!
Mari
