Extracting URL pointer within XML tag

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi.

I'm trying to extract text between two quotation marks in XML. For example, I want to extract:

<a href="www.thisisanexample.com">Click here</a>. I want to extract www.thisisanexample.com. But the data I want to extract does not necessarily have to be <a href> link. It could be <car>, etc...

So far I have tried using simpleXML and regex but I seem to be at a dead end. Simplexml I was able to extract the data between tags, which is useful, but I want data that's inside the tags themselves.

Any insight would be greatly
