First off I will say I’m very new at PHP scripting so please forgive any unintelligent questions. I have an XML file that is an export from a program which I would like to parse into an array and call variables from. I seem to be getting stuck on part of calling variables from the array. I’m trying to do this with as little modification to the xml file as possible. I would like the script to be able to upload the file and parse it into a table and useable variables. I have the upload portion working and I have the table working in another script, now I just need to get the variables out of the xml.
Ideally I would like to be able to call them by the camera number (0 to whatever the file ends at), then be able to access the name, company, product, and so on.
Any Help on this would be great.
