simplexml help how do I parse this?
- by bbutle01
I haven't done any xml projects, so I'm not quite sure what to do with this data...
I'm using curl to make a request to salesforce, and they give me back a response that I need to parse. I want to use simplexml. Here's part of the response:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns="urn:partner.soap.sforce.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>
<loginResponse>

Anyway, I expected to feed that stuff (we'll call it data) into
$results = simplexml_load_string($data);
var_dump($results);
And that would give me all the data back... and then to access specific parts, it would be $results-body-loginResponse-blah-blah...
But It's not giving me that, it's not really giving me anything back, just an empty simple xml object...
So one website made me think I might need an XSLT to read this correctly.
Or something else made me think it's because I don't have at the top.
Help!
