Parsing XML

$xml = simplexml_load_file("useless.xml");
foreach ($xml->entry as $anEntry) {
    print("Verbosity Attribute: " . $anEntry["verbosity"] . "<br />");
    print("One Tag: " . $anEntry->one . "<br />");
    print("Two Tag: " . $anEntry->two . "<br /><br />");
}

Modifying XML

$xml->entry[0]->one = "this is the updated one tag data";
$xml->entry[0]->addChild("three", "this is the three tag data");
unset($xml->entry[0]->two);
$xml->asXML("useless.xml");
