I have a small string in XML format:
$xml = simplexml_load_string('
<imgs>
<img mainfoto="true" date_changed="2019-04-07 23:27:50">
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_1.jpg
</img>
<img date_changed="2020-04-01 12:27:50">
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_2.jpg
</img>
<img date_changed="2020-04-04 12:27:50">
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_3.jpg
</img>
<img date_changed="2020-04-07 12:27:50">
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_4.jpg
</img>
</imgs>
');
I am trying to get the text(url) from between the img
tags:
foreach($xml->img as $url){
var_dump($url);
}
But this returns objects instead of a string(the actual url):
object(SimpleXMLElement)#7 (2) {
["@attributes"]=>
array(2) {
["mainfoto"]=>
string(4) "true"
["date_changed"]=>
string(19) "2019-04-07 23:27:50"
}
[0]=>
string(52) "
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_1.jpg
"
}
object(SimpleXMLElement)#8 (2) {
["@attributes"]=>
array(1) {
["date_changed"]=>
string(19) "2020-04-01 12:27:50"
}
[0]=>
string(52) "
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_2.jpg
"
}
object(SimpleXMLElement)#7 (2) {
["@attributes"]=>
array(1) {
["date_changed"]=>
string(19) "2020-04-04 12:27:50"
}
[0]=>
string(52) "
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_3.jpg
"
}
object(SimpleXMLElement)#8 (2) {
["@attributes"]=>
array(1) {
["date_changed"]=>
string(19) "2020-04-07 12:27:50"
}
[0]=>
string(52) "
https://example.com/data/i/pictures/size/333_4.jpg
"
}
I've also tried using $url[0]
but i'm getting some empty objects.
How can i get just the url
out as a string?
