Extracting XML data to php [duplicate]

Answer 1

The PHP manual has a whole section on PHP parsing:

• http://php.net/manual/en/book.simplexml.php
• http://php.net/manual/en/book.xml.php

For simplicity, you could also use xml_parse_into_struct()

Here's a pretty good example, using SimpleXML:

Answer 2

$string_data = "<your xml response>";
$xml = simplexml_load_string($string_data);
$latitude = (string) $xml->Latitude;
$longitude = (string) $xml->Longitude;
echo $latitude.' '.$longitude;

Answer 3

It's easy, use PHP's SimpleXML Library:

$xml = simplexml_load_file("http://freegeoip.net/xml/google.com");
echo $xml->Ip; // 173.194.38.174
echo $xml->CountryCode; // US
echo $xml->ZipCode; // 94043
// etc...
