Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-03-2009 [eluser]aryan_[/eluser] Does Codeigniter has xml parser? I want to parse xml file and show its data. Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-03-2009 [eluser]skunkbad[/eluser] I think using the built in SimpleXML class is very easy. www.php.net/simplexml It parses XML very nicely. Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-03-2009 [eluser]imn.codeartist[/eluser] yes, you can create your own library using simpleXML Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-04-2009 [eluser]aryan_[/eluser] I did this. Why don't CI has inbuilt XML parsing class? Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-04-2009 [eluser]kyleect[/eluser] Might as well use this thread for my question. Does anyone know of a way to convert a simplexml object to an array? Or, it easier, does anyone know of an alternate way to parse XML to an array in PHP? Thanks!

Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-04-2009 [eluser]pistolPete[/eluser] @kyleect: Why do you need an array? Why would you prefer an array to an object? Parsing XML in CI - El Forum - 10-04-2009 [eluser]skunkbad[/eluser] Ya know, I guess I hadn't really thought about the CI users who do not have php5. SimpleXML is a php5 class, so perhaps CI users should create a class/library that parses XML like SimpleXML, but for php4. I have used a class like this in the past. I found it online, and probably have it somewhere in my mega script library. If I can find it, I will post it.
