XML Feed with value?

[Dalton]

Ok, Ive just started to learn how to use xml feeds, I picked up most of it in about a day, one thing I do not understand is how to access a certain tag with a value.
Im using



$xml = simplexml_load_file("news.xml");
foreach ($xml->news as $news) {
// echo content here
}

(pretty simple)

and I have an xml file


<post>
<news id="15">
<author>Dalton</author>
<story>blah</story>
</news>
<news id="14">
<author>Dalton</author>
<story>blah</story>
</news>
</post>


Now, on to my point, I want to echo only the news where the id="14" so it will only display where <news id="14"></news>.

I have asked so many people on how to do this and no one can seem to explain it to me, haha. PLEASE HELP.

Thanks,
Dalton Conley

Ok, the problem has a simple solution that has been right in front of me the whole time!



<?php
$string = <<<XML
<a>
<foo name="one" game="lonely">1</foo>
</a>
XML;

$xml = simplexml_load_string($string);
foreach($xml->foo[0]->attributes() as $a => $b) {
echo $a,'="',$b,"\"\n";
}
?>


The $a variable is the attribute and the $b variable is the attributes value. You can also access attributes with the use of $xml['attribute_name'] which works very well too.

Thanks to all of those couragous people who posted - NOT! haha
