[RESOLVED] Query String

[sogeneric88]

Hi, I am trying to get a query string from the url, and then use that to get an element's "id" from an xml file, so far I havn't been able to figure that out, any suggestions on how I would do this? An example of my xml file is below.

<bodytag>
    <item id="1">
        <data>fsla</data>
    </item>
    <item id="2">
        <data>sdflhgf</data>
    </item>
</bodytag>

With a query string like:
?a=1&b=2

You would access a and b with $GET['a'] and $GET['b'] respectively.

Ok, thanks a lot, and how would I be able to get the element from an xml file with that id?

You would need to process that XML document, say with the [man]SimpleXML[/man] extension.
