Load file in PHP

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

I have 2 files. The first is a PHP generated XML file that's dependent by 2 inputs. The second is a PHP file that grabs the content of the XML file.

So I have this:

site.com/xml.php?p=RAINBOW&z=SOCCER
Code: <playlist version="1">

<trackList>

<track>
<title>SOCCER - RAINBOW</title>
<location>http://www.site.com/soccer-rainbow.m4v</location>
<duration>23:27</duration>
<info>http://www.site.com/info.php?video=RAINBOW&amp;title=SOCCER</info>
<meta rel="type">m4v</meta>
<image>images.php?title=SOCCER&amp;video=RAINBOW</image>
</track>

<track>
<title>SOCCER</title>
<location/>
<meta rel="type"/>
</track>
</trackList>
</playlist>
I want to grab the contents of the "location" tags.

So, I have this now:

media.php?p=RAINBOW&z=SOCCER
Code: $title = $_GET['p'];
$video = $_GET['z'];

$myXML = 'www.site.com/xml.php?p=' .$title. '&z='.$video;

$sxml = simplexml_load_string($myXML);
list($node) = $sxml->xpath('/playlist/trackList/track/location');
header("Location: $node");
But I get the error "Fatal error: Call to a member function xpath() on a non-object on line 9".

What variables did I mess up? Can someone help me fix it, please?
