Php Cannot Read Node Value in Xml

Question

I cannot able to read node.I want to read the USER_ID node value.When i am trying to read with simplexml_load_string.

I am unable to read the node value.

This is my xml code :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16" standalone="yes"?> 
<RESULT>      
<SUCCESS>1</SUCCESS> 
<ERRMESSAGE /> 
<REMARKS /> 
<DATA>
  <data>
    <USERS>
      <U> 
        <USER_ID>1</USER_ID>
      </U>
  </data>
</DATA>
</RESULT>

So which node value are you trying to read, and how are you trying to read it? — Mark Baker, Feb 03 '16 at 10:29

Your xml file is not valid. Change encoding of xml document to utf-8. Then just access like normal object:

$xmlfile = file_get_contents('test.xml');
$array = simplexml_load_string($xmlfile);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($arr->DATA->data->USERS->U->USER_ID);
echo "</pre>";
