If you want to use this with PHP5 change line 25:

$result [$vals [$i]['tag']] = array_merge ($attributes, GetChildren ($vals, $i, ‘open’));

To

$result [$vals [$i]['tag']] = array_merge ((array)$attributes, (array)GetChildren ($vals, $i, ‘open’));

Great script, It is doing exactly what I need it to do. I have a couple questions, and I have to first say I know just enough php to get me in trouble.

Im using your script in my wordpress blog and have 3 areas that the results will appear in left side bar (lside.php) the content or post section (index.php) and the right side (rside.php)

What I want to do is have results 1,2 & 3 in my left side bar, 4-9 in the center (index) and 1- 15 in the right side bar (rside.php)

To complicate the issue a variable will be place in the xml feed url that is being fetched.

I have been able to pass the var to the url xml string and everything worked – the data was passed back flawlessly.

Here is where my stupidity comes into play.

How do i take a var and echo the data on the page.

The file being returned is:

Heading, url, uri, description but keep in mind this needs to be placed in 3 different areas of the page and three files are included to actually build the page.

Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated as I have been searching for a script that would do this for some time now.

Thanks John

I have one small problem with the script though.

If there is only 1 child element the ARRAY looks like this:
—————————
Array
(
[sync] => Array
(
[learner_id] => 1234
[learner_name] => Father Christmas
[password] => hoho
[client_id] => Companyname
[device_id] => 023408fsdf8032
[last_sync] => 20051214132201
[event] => Array
(
[core] => course details
[engine_name] => ultaextreme
[engine_version] => 1.0.0
[extended] => answers
)
)
)
—————————

I REALLY NEED IT TO LOOK LIKE THIS:
—————————
Array
(
[sync] => Array
(
[learner_id] => 1234
[learner_name] => Father Christmas
[password] => hoho
[client_id] => Companyname
[device_id] => 023408fsdf8032
[last_sync] => 20051214132201
[event] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[core] => course details
[engine_name] => ultaextreme
[engine_version] => 1.0.0
[extended] => answers
)

)

)

)
—————————
How can this be done?

Thanks again for a great script…

a little problem:

somehow I need to keep original aspect of the data in my xml file to output, however, when I change

xml_parser_set_option ($parser, XML_OPTION_SKIP_WHITE, 1)

into

xml_parser_set_option ($parser, XML_OPTION_SKIP_WHITE, 0)

and it can’t work.

pls fix this problem, I’ll be still waiting. Thanx again(and sorry for my poor English).

<NAME> </NAME>

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.

exemple :

BC
516521
-1212891
-800
1

Thanx
