Array parsing in PHP

Question

I have an array $array1

    Array
   (
        [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
        (
            [galleryid] => gallery.xml
            [galleryname] => Default
            [createdat] => 9/8/2010 5:55 pm
            [description] => Default
        )
   }

when i am running

foreach($array1 as $node)
{
 print_r($node) ; 
}

am getting

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
    [galleryid] => gallery.xml
    [galleryname] => Default
    [createdat] => 9/8/2010 5:55 pm
    [description] => Default
)

How i can display galleryid and gallery name

Just like you would access any other SimpleXMLElement Object:

foreach($array1 as $node)
{
    echo $node->galleryname;
    echo $node->galleryid;
}

... i.e. the array is a one-dimensional array containing objects (which have properties), not a multidimensional array.

@BlaM judging by the OPs previous question, I'd say the array is a result of an XPath query, so it is singledim.

Both galleryid & galleryname are object properties, you can access object properties with the following syntax.

foreach($array1 as $node){
     echo $node->galleryid;
     echo $node->galleryname;
}

Plenty of resources online to learn object oriented PHP and the correct syntax for accessing properties and methods.
