PHP code to present information from RIPE XML file

Question

Here is a tool for WHOIS lookups that I use: http://apps.db.ripe.net/search/lookup.html

It can present information in an XML file, like this: http://apps.db.ripe.net/whois/lookup/ripe/inetnum/192.36.171.155.xml

Let's say I wanted to read the XML file by using PHP and present the netname and descr fields in an HTML document, how would I do that?

Is it still working? I have tested it and it doesn't work – Fran Rod Jan 23 '16 at 11:37 — Fran Rod, Jan 23 '16 at 11:37

Take a look at SimpleXML. Once you've loaded the file it's easy to traverse...

$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://apps.db.ripe.net/whois/lookup/ripe/inetnum/192.36.171.155.xml');
echo $xml->objects->object->attributes->attribute[1]->attributes()->value;
