                    )

                [Vehicles] => Array
                    (
                        [Vehicle] => Array
                            (
                                [BodyStyle] =>  4 DOOR SALOON
                                [CO2] => 151
                                [DateFirstRegistered] => 2001-12-03

                            )

                    )

            )

    )

)

I need to extract [Vehicle] => Array from the above array any Ideas?

$var = $array[0]['DataArea']['Vehicles']['Vehicle'];
print_r($var);

Actually, the first (and only) element of the array has an empty string as its key, not zero. Why? Who knows?

Good point - is this normal in an xml file?

Weedpacket

Since I've seen neither the XML nor what was done with it to produce the given array, that's like giving me a picture of a three-legged chair and asking if that's normal for wood.

Great line!

Well - The array above came from an xml file - I used someones code someplace to create the above array from the xml file - However it seems that that code was somewhat flawed in that it produced an array without a key - So i guess I need the correct code to produce the array i need - Would you need to know the xml file data to provide me with an example of how this is done?
