Extracting xml element attribute

[gyan]

Hi,

Refering to XML parser tutorial at

http://www.juicystudio.com/tutorial/php/xml.html,

how do we extract the attribute value.

e.g;

The XML file:
-------------
<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?>
<machine>
<component id=&quot;1&quot;>
<title>Sound Card</title>
<price>Rs. 700.00</price>
<madein href=&quot;

http://www.manufacturing.india.com&quot;>India</madein>;

</component>
</machine>

We would like to extract the value of href and link it with 'India', so that, if user clicks on India, it goes to

http://www.manufacturing.inida.com.

Thanks,

Gyan

The problem is that xpat is event-driven. There is no statefulness to be able to associate &quot;India&quot; with the href unless you implement it.

This tutorial and sample code puts the xml data into an array of objects.
