get same tag value form xml by php DOMDocument

Question

I have a XML file, one part of the file is

<Images>
     <image_>image1.jpg</image_>
     <image_>image2.jpg</image_>
</Images>

I need the image names. I use the code like

$Images = $domtree->getElementsByTagName('Images');
foreach($Images as $Image){


    $Image = $Image->nodeValue."<br>";

    echo $Image;

    }

This is returns the imaged name but at a time as a string, I need as an array. I mean I want to insert the images in the database. Some one help me.

What do you need help with? Just put the $Image->nodeValues into an array, and then into the database. — gen_Eric

The problem is you are looping over the Images element(s). So, when you echo nodeValue, you are getting the value of the entire Images element (and all its children).

You need to loop over each of the image_ elements (children) inside the Images element (parent)

$val = array();
$Images = $DOM->getElementsByTagName('Images');
foreach($Images as $Image){
    $imgs = $Image->getElementsByTagName('image_');
    foreach($imgs as $i){
        $img = $i->nodeValue;
        $val[] = $img;
        echo $img."<br>";
    }
}
var_dump($val);
