simplexml_load_file的语法错误

Question

I'm trying to append an item id from my database to an endpoint url within a simplexml_load_file function.

The function is called in the body section of an item page template that is part of a php mvc framework.

I've tried multiple different ways to fix the syntax error, and none seem to have worked.

Thanks in advance for your help.

[E_PARSE][Code 4] syntax error, unexpected '<'

My code:

<?php   

//call our items xml file and store in object
$myItems = simplexml_load_file('http://www.example.org/test/items.php?item_id=' . <?php echo $this->item['item_id']; ?>');

?>

Answer 1

Please change your code to following:

<?php   

//call our items xml file and store in object
$myItems = simplexml_load_file('http://www.example.org/test/items.php?item_id=' . $this->item['item_id']);

?>

you are not suppose to use <?php inside <?php
