silkfire Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I know how to parse and print out contents of an XML file with SimpleXML but when I do it with this one I just get an empty string. XML file sample: <?xml version="1.0"?> <?mso-application progid="Excel.Sheet"?> <Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <DocumentProperties xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"> <Title>Periodens vara - maj</Title> <Company>Company1</Company> <Version>1.00</Version> </DocumentProperties> <OfficeDocumentSettings xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"> <AllowPNG/> </OfficeDocumentSettings> <ExcelWorkbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"> <WindowHeight>10005</WindowHeight> <WindowWidth>10005</WindowWidth> <WindowTopX>120</WindowTopX> <WindowTopY>135</WindowTopY> <ProtectStructure>False</ProtectStructure> <ProtectWindows>False</ProtectWindows> </ExcelWorkbook> <Styles> <Style ss:ID="Default" ss:Name="Normal"> <Alignment ss:Vertical="Bottom"/> <Font ss:FontName="Calibri" ss:Size="11" ss:Color="#000000"/> </Style> .... I get no error so the structure is correct. But doing print_r() returns an empty array. So does children(). How do I start, help me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firedealer Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 You didn't post a php code. So, I assume you are looking for this: <?php $xmlFeed = 'workbook.xml'; $xmlFeed = simplexml_load_file($xmlFeed); ?> <html> <head></head> <body> <pre><? print_r ( $xmlFeed ); ?></pre> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkfire Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 I solved it but you're being a smartass, firedealer, don't you think I tried that way? It's namespaces they complicate everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
