Question

I’m currently using file_get_contents to get an xml.
It work well and when I display the xml with the correct MIME type header(‘Content-type: text/xml’) I obtain something like this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<tarification compagnie="banane" cle="laclef">
  <gamme reference="equilibre-sante">
    <tarif formule="f100">Xx.xx</tarif>
    <tarif formule="f200">Xx.xx</tarif>
  </gamme>
</tarification>

To use it as an object I use simplexml_load_string but when I print_r the returned object I didn’t see the formule attribute I just see something like this :

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
  [@attributes] => Array
    (
      [compagnie] => banane
      [cle] => laclef
    )

  [gamme] => Array
    (
      [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
        (
          [@attributes] => Array
            (
              [reference] => equilibre-sante
            )
          [tarif] => Array
            (
              [0] => Xx.xx
              [1] => Xx.xx
            )
         )
    )
)

I want to get formule attributes, I have already tested to do this by following this tutorial without success.

You need to use the SimpleXMLElement::attributes as:

$xml = simplexml_load_string($xmlstring);    
foreach($xml->gamme->tarif as $tarif) {
        foreach($tarif->attributes() as $a => $b) {
                echo $a,'="',$b,"\"\n";
        }
}
