I am trying to write a php script which looks at an existing XML log and then print this information to the screen. I been looking at simplexml_load_file() and other methods but I am stuck on one bit. I want to show all information from the elements in order of what they appear in the xml file. I know how to extract values and attributes but what I don't know is how to loop through test and detect and print them in the order as shown below (i.e. 45,46,47,48,49,50. I cannot change the xml structure as it out of my control.
What is the best approach for doing this?
Thanks
<xml>
<test name="test1">
<time date="29/09/2014" />
<message line="45" type="LOG">
<description>Example 1</description>
</message>
<message line="46" type="TEST">
<description>Example 2</description>
</message>
<verification line="47">
<result type="pass" file="abc.py">
<description>button was available</description>
<description type="DETAILED"></description>
</result>
</verification>
<message line="48" type="LOG">
<description>Example 3</description>
</message>
<verification line="49">
<result type="pass" file="abc.py">
<description>button available</description>
<description type="DETAILED"></description>
</result>
</verification>
<message line="50" type="LOG">
<description>Example 4</description>
</message>
</test>
</xml>
Example output:
Test: test1
