All,

I am fairly new to parsing XML using PHP and wonder if anyone has a =
solution
to the following. I have a file eg:-

=20

<









































=20

And so on. I have managed to parse a little of it using Magic Parser but =
I
still cant manage to split the products and categories correctly. If =
there
weren't multiple products for each category I think I would have it.

=20

Any help would be a start.

Thanks in advance

I don't know much about XML, but is not closed in you example,
neither is PRODUCT ITEM ... are you sure the XML is well-formed?
And now we don't want a sig like yours. Could you please shorten it?

Hi,

That is only a piece of your XML data? or mayve did you wrote it by hand
to send us the email?

If that's a piece of the real data you use, bad!! you wouldn't be able
to use any XML parser as it isn't valid XML data. All tags must be
closed before opening again the same tag name -unless it does belong to
the previous tag (but I don't bet for this in your case)-. Your data
should look similar to this: (notice the *missing* closure tags. ah! I
added the dots for indentation purposes, it is not valid in XML!). Where
did you got this XML file? or perhaps is it created by yourself?

Anyway, you could have a look to this thread on php-general, about an example I've sent some days ago, as simple XML parsing for dynamic structures. Give a look to the xml file structure, that is a correct XML file, and the parsing example: http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=php-general&a=2006-04&m=1973183
