PHP Array cURL foreach -

i have again problem, want use in shoutcast2 api , have array problem.

$sc_host = 'ip'; $sc_port = 'port'; $sc_user = 'user'; $sc_pass = 'password'; mt_srand((double) microtime() * 1000000); $seq  = mt_rand(1, 100); $post = 'op=listevents&seq=' . $seq; $ch   = curl_init($sc_host . '/api'); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_port, $sc_port); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_timeout, 5); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_post, true); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_returntransfer, true); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_httpauth, curlauth_basic); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_userpwd, $sc_user . ':' . $sc_pass); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_postfields, $post); $curl = curl_exec($ch); $xml  = new simplexmlelement(utf8_encode($curl)); curl_close($ch); 

array output:

array (     [@attributes] => array (         [seq] => 128     )     [data] => array (         [eventlist] => array (             [event] => array (                 [@attributes] => array (                     [type] => relay                 )                 [relay] => array (                     [@attributes] => array (                         [priority] => 1                         [url] => ip:port                     )                 )                 [active] => 1                 [id] => 1                 [calendar] => array (                     [@attributes] => array (                         [starttime] => 00:00:00                     )                 )             )         )     ) ) 

now want read output via array:

foreach ($xml->data->eventlist->event $event ) {          echo $event ->type;       } 

no issue why? error?

thank you

edit original xml

<eventlist>  <event type="playlist|dj|relay">    <active/>    <id/>    <dj/>    <playlist loopatend="1|0" shuffle="1|0" priority="#">      nameofplaylist    </playlist>    <relay url=""/>    <calendar/>  </event>  <event ... /> 

printing simplexml element not you. data in there internal class.

you want this:

foreach($xml->event $event){     echo (string)$event['type']; }
