i use simplexml.

here's small example of using it. loads , parses xml http://www.w3schools.com/xml/plant_catalog.xml , outputs values of "common" , "price" tags of each "plant" tag.

$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://www.w3schools.com/xml/plant_catalog.xml'); foreach ( $xml->plant $plantnode ) {     echo $plantnode->common, ' - ', $plantnode->price, "\n"; }
