I have a simple xml file. I know which fields it will have ahead of time. What can you guys recommend is the best way for me to get the value of those fields using php?

SimpleXML is great for quick reading/writing of XML files. Here’s an example:

<root>
   <node>
      <sub>Text</sub>
   </node>
</root>

 

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('xml_file.xml', 0, true);
echo $xml->node->sub; // Displays "Text"
