XML To array in php

Solution:

Online Example: https://3v4l.org/KcJMX, You can optimize your primary array, Just learn from function.xml-parse-into-struct.php, I hope you will do it.

Usexml_parser_create andxml_parse_into_struct to make your desire array.

Usingxml_parse_into_struct you will got two array, one is indexes and other is values. So you can generate your desire result from those index and values, As you the indexes you call easily make the desire array.

Also look at those($index, $vals) arrays.

$xml = '<soap:Body>
            <CreateContact xmlns="http://www.tigerpawsoftware.com">
             <pram>
               <OfficePhoneNumber>8387909727</OfficePhoneNumber>
               <EmailAddress>[email protected]</EmailAddress>
              </pram>
            </CreateContact>
          </soap:Body>';

$p = xml_parser_create();
xml_parse_into_struct($p, $xml, $vals, $index);
xml_parser_free($p);

echo '<pre>';
$out = array("OfficePhoneNumber" => $vals[$index['OFFICEPHONENUMBER'][0]]['value'], "EmailAddress" => $vals[$index['EMAILADDRESS'][0]]['value']);
