I want to print the:

• Session Title (Building Web Applications with Microsoft SQL Azure)
• The Author (David Robinson)
• The Location (Breakers L)
• And display the speakers image (http://live.visitmix.com/Content/images/speakers/lrg/default.jpg)

I presume I can use filegetcontents and then transform to simplexmlstring, but I dont know how to get the deeper items in I want, like Author, and image.

Considering SimpleXML loads XML data using :

• array keys for attributes
• objects for values

Something like this should do the trick :

$string = <<<STR
<entry>
    ...
  </entry>
STR;

$xml = @simplexml_load_string($string);

echo (string)$xml->title . '<br />';
echo (string)$xml->link[1]->inline->feed->entry->author->name . '<br />';
echo (string)$xml->content->properties->Location . '<br />';
echo (string)$xml->link[1]->inline->feed->entry->content['src'] . '<br />';

And I get the following output :

Building Web Applications with Microsoft SQL Azure
David Robinson
Breakers L

Using var_dump($xml); can help you find out how your data is represented, when using SimpleXML -- makes things easier when it comes to accessing it ;-)

Note : here, I've used the @ operator to supress the warnings I was getting when using simplexml_load_string ; else, I have plenty of warnings like these :

Warning: simplexml_load_string() [function.simplexml-load-string]: 
   namespace error : Namespace prefix m on inline is not defined

Warning: simplexml_load_string() [function.simplexml-load-string]: <m:inline>

Maybe there's something that needs fixing, here ?
