Question

I have the below XML Structure below but I am unsure how I can get direct access to the URL so that I can use it as a src in my image tag.

PHP Structure:

$images = $url->property->photos
<img src="'.$images.'" width="233" height="154" /> - Testing URL  

General XML Structure:

<photos>
 <photo>
  Information
 </photo>
</photos>

XML Structure:

["photos"]=>
    object(SimpleXMLElement)#118 (2) {
      ["@attributes"]=>
      array(1) {
        ["count"]=>
        string(2) "43"
      }
      ["photo"]=>
      array(43) {
        [0]=>
        string(97) "http://www.domain.co.nz/images/6f8bc4855bface1ad2c35635625fdbb4c3a11537.jpeg"
        [1]=>
        string(97) "http://www.domain.co.nz/images/fcb36e4a3465b934490d44e6bb8e1a8192cb466d.jpeg"
        [2]=>
        string(97) "http://www.domain.co.nz/images//c1e2c792832a08f881bb24756137a63a19c7070d.jpeg"
        [3]=>
        string(97) "http://www.domain.co.nz/images/b6d9a3c52c7fba81553edb9101c80d273c16ee3c.jpeg"

$xmlstr = <<<XML
<properties count="1">
        <property approved="yesterday">
                <address>123 Main Street</address>
                <photos count="2">
                        <photo>1.jpg</photo>
                        <photo>2.jpg</photo>
                </photos>
        </property>
</properties>
XML;
$properties = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);//this could have been done using simplexml_load_file($url); for instance
//the important part is that you have a SimpleXML object named $properties
foreach($properties->property as $property){
        echo $property['approved']."<br>\n";
        echo $property->address."<br>\n";
        foreach($property->photos->photo as $photo){
                echo $photo."<br>\n";
        }
}

I assume you may have multiple properties and you want to list each one. If you only have one, or only want to list the first one, you can safely remove the first foreach loop:

echo $properties->property[0]['approved']."<br>\n";
echo $properties->property[0]->address."<br>\n";
foreach($properties->property[0]->photos->photo as $photo){
    echo $photo."<br>\n";
}
