PHP: How to store XML data in an array?
- by tommy
Below is the XML I am working with - there are more items - this is the first set. How can I get these elements in to an array? I have been trying with PHP's SimpleXML etc. but I just cant do it.

</lf:item>
<!-- more items -->
</lf:result>

Thanks guys
EDIT: I want the first items data in easy to access variables, I've been struggling for a couple of days to get SimpleXML to work as I am new to PHP, so I thought manipulating an array is easier to do.
