Using PHP's SimpleXML i would like to get the key and child of an element. The first element if there are more then one. How do i do this? the 2nd line doesnt make sense so how would get the first key/val of the first element?
$body = $xml->Body;
$xml->Body->children() as $XX=>$ZZ;
echo "x $XX $ZZ
";
foreach($xml->Body->children() as $k=>$v){
echo "$k $v
";
}
Can be done via IteratorIterator.
Or (even simpler) by treating the return value of children() (almost) like an array:
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<foo><Body>
<a>001</a>
<b>002</b>
<c>003</c>
</Body></foo>');
$c = $xml->Body->children();
if ( isset($c[0]) ) {
echo $c->getName(), " : ", (string)$c;
}
