如何使用PHP读取XML API

Question

I am learning PHP and need to know how to get the elements in following XML API into an Array. I tried with simplexml_load_file() function. But it gave me an error.

Here are my code.

<?php
$xml=simplexml_load_file("http://static.cricinfo.com/rss/livescores.xml");

foreach($xml->getElementsByTagName('item') as $match)
{
    echo $match->getAttribute('title'), "
";
}

?>

Answer 1

Please use the following code for it.

$xml=simplexml_load_file("http://static.cricinfo.com/rss/livescores.xml");
$channel_info = $xml->channel;
$totalRecords = count($channel_info->item);
for ($i=0; $i < $totalRecords; $i++) { 
    echo $channel_info->item[$i]->title . '<br/>';
}

I hope it will work for you.

Thank you.
