Where am I going wrong? Thanks
$results = simplexml_load_file($url);
foreach($results->Location() as $location) {
foreach($location->Address() as $address) {
foreach($address->Areas() as $areas) {
foreach($areas->Area as $area) {
echo $area->area;
echo "<br />";
}
}
}
}
If you had error_reporting
and display_errors
enabled, you would see there is a
Fatal error: Call to undefined method SimpleXMLElement::Location()
You are trying to access the elements with Method calls, e.g.
foreach($results->Location() as $location) {
when it should be
foreach($results->Location as $location) {
Same for the other elements.
Also, it's not $area->area
but just $area
.
Full fixed code:
$results = simplexml_load_file($url);
foreach($results->Location as $location) {
foreach($location->Address as $address) {
foreach($address->Areas as $areas) {
foreach($areas->Area as $area) {
echo $area;
echo "<br />";
}
}
}
}
On a sidenote, you can get all Area elements in the document without looping like crazy when using an XPath. However, since the elements are namespaced, you have to register that namespace with a prefix first to be able to use XPath:
$results = simplexml_load_file($url);
$results->registerXPathNamespace('d', 'http://clients.multimap.com/API');
$areas = $results->xpath('//d:Area');
foreach($areas as $area) {
echo "$area<br/>";
}
Yet another way to get over all elements (though less performat than using an XPath) would be to use an Iterator to walk over the DOM Tree:
$elements = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(
simplexml_load_file($url, 'SimpleXmlIterator'));
foreach($elements as $element) {
if($element->getName() === 'Area') {
echo $element;
}
}
