Get namespaces with php

[ProuteurFou]

Hi
I'm using the SimpleXMLElement class to get some info of an rss feed
The thing is I get nothing about the info included in the namespaces (<media:title> <media:content> <media:credit>) when I write
print_r($xml)

For example in this code, what should I do to get the info in the media node:

<media:player url="http://youtube.com/?v=hjlQfMECSdA"/>
<media:thumbnail url="http://sjl-static10.sjl.youtube.com/vi/hjlQfMECSdA/2.jpg" width="120" height="90"/>

thanks!

I have something that might be of some use to you in this area. The xml_parser.inc code is probably just what you need, however the stack_sorter.inc code is only half of the rest of what you need but could be usefull in providing you with the necessary examples you require to fashion your own script. I am interested in viewing the finished product, please post your finished script and your ideas. Also please PM me to alert me to your post so as to ensure that I dont miss it.
