I'm using the count to limit the number of times I want to loop through the feed, however I also need to return the records, so i can assign them to a smarty variable. Any idea how I can do this?
Again you want to use a global variable to do this, but remember that you will have to load the records into an array of array's otherwise you will only have access to the last record. The basic method is as follows:
<?php // create a global array to hold the records $records = array(); function myRecordHandler($record) { // add the record to the global array global $records; $records[] = $record; } // parse as usual MagicParser_parse("file.xml","myRecordHandler"); // after parsing, all records are in $records array ?>
Hi,

Hope this helps!
