It's getting close, but in the example above, using my actual xml file, I get the following result:-Array ( [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => Fort William ) ) The actual city name is "Fort William", and it is just that text that I want to display - can the other text be stripped off?ALSO, my web host is using PHP 4.4.4 not 5.x - is this available in a pre-V5.x PHP?
