For this simple query simple do a call to $item->date to get your time. If the query is more complex in reality, do a foreach using xpath. See the example on Xpath at www.php.net/simplexml

But from what I've read, is it true that xpath doesn't really work properly? I'm using an XML file that has a section like this: <item> <title>Title</title> <link>Link</link> <description>Desc</description> <dc:subject>Subject</dc:subject> <dc:date>2004-09-20T18:15:00+00:00</dc:date> </item> My sample of my PHP code is: <?php $library = simplexml_load_file('file.rss'); foreach ($library->item as $item) { echo $item->xpath('dc:date'); } ?> I just want to get the date. Am I doing xpath incorrectly or does xpath not currently work properly in PHP5? -- --Matthew Sims --<http://killermookie.org> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
