I think this is great, however it seems to be missing one attibute function. When you load an xml into it where the father node has attributes AND childNodes it gets the value of the childNodes into array, however if it's just nodes with attributes it puts the attributes into the array. It would be great if it somehow did both. An example is this flickr xml

basically

SNIP]
function GetXMLTree ($xmldata)
{
$attributes =array();

// we want to know if an error occurs
ini_set (’track_errors’, ‘1′);
[SNIP]

makes it work in php5

Very useful code but I had problems with empty xml files, for example:

I fix the problem changing the call to the funtion GetChildren in the main function….

—– original ——
$result [$vals [$i][’tag’]] = array_merge ($attributes, GetChildren ($vals, $i, ‘open’));
—– fixed ——–
$result [$vals [$i][’tag’]] = array_merge ($attributes, GetChildren ($vals, $i, $vals[$i][’type’]));

Sorry for my poor english and thanks for the code.
