Reading XML/RSS files

[Fidbeck]

<?php
function php_net_feed($limit){
	$output = array();
	$feed_url = 'http://php.net/feed.atom';
	$feed = simplexml_load_file($feed_url);
	$x = 1;

	foreach ($feed->entry as $item) {
		if ($x <= $limit){
			$title = $item->title;
			$url = $item->id;

			$output[] = array(
				'title' = $title, 
				'url' = $url
			);
		}
		$x++;
	}

	return $output;
}

$feed = php_net_feed(5);

?>
<ul>

	<?php
		foreach ($feed as $item) {
			echo '<li>', $item['title'], '</li>';
		}
	?>

</ul>

so far i've managed to extract title and date but how do I extract the body?
This is the example

<entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xml:base="entries/2012-11-22-1.xml">

I usually work these things out by looking at the result of the parsing, it's not always obvious from the XML directly.

Try adding

print_r($item);

inside your loop, and maybe set $x to 1 for testing, and see what you get

I get an huge array... :S

this is what I want

  [p] => Array
                        (
                            [0] => The PHP development team announces the immediate availability of PHP 5.4.9 and PHP 5.3.19. These releases fix over 15 bugs. All users of PHP are encouraged to upgrade to PHP 5.4.9, or at least 5.3.19.
                            [1] => For source downloads of PHP 5.4.9 and PHP 5.3.19 please visit our , Windows binaries can be found on .
                            [2] => The list of changes are recorded in the .
                        )

but how?

[jacek]

If that array is in the variable $data then you want $data['p'][0]

I want 0 1 and 2, are the different <p> in the <content> section, but nevermind, I already have the case solved
Changed the code a bit.
Thanks for your help
