Best XML Parser for PHP [duplicate]

Answer 1

Hi I think the SimpleXml is very useful . And with it I am using xpath;

$xml = simplexml_load_file("som_xml.xml");

$blocks  = $xml->xpath('//block'); //gets all  tags
$blocks2 = $xml->xpath('//layout/block'); //gets all  which parent are     tags

I use many xml configs and this helps me to parse them really fast. SimpleXml is written on C so it's very fast.
