    libxml2 contains much more useful method readString() that will read and return whole text content of element. You can call it after receiving start tag (XMLReader::ELEMENT). You can use this PHP code to emulate this method until PHP will directly call underlying libxml2 implementation.

    <?php
    class XMLReader2 extends XMLReader
    {
    function     readString()
    {
    $depth = 1;
    $text = "";

    while (    $this->read() && $depth != 0)
    {
    if (    in_array($this->nodeType, array(XMLReader::TEXT, XMLReader::CDATA, XMLReader::WHITESPACE, XMLReader::SIGNIFICANT_WHITESPACE)))
    $text .= $this->value;
    if (    $this->nodeType == XMLReader::ELEMENT) $depth++;
    if (    $this->nodeType == XMLReader::END_ELEMENT) $depth--;
    }
    return     $text;
    }
    }
    ?>

    Just use XMLReader2 instead of XMLReader.

    It is interesting to note that this function will stop on closing tags as well. I have an XML document similar to the following:

    <root>
    <columns>
    <column>columnX</column>
    <column>columnY</column>
    </columns>
    <table>
    <row>
    <columnX>38</columnX>
    <columnY>50</columnY>
    </row>
    <row>
    <columnX>82</columnY>
    <columnY>28</columnY>
    </row>
    ...
    </table>
    </root>

    I need to parse the <columns> object to know what attributes to check for from each <row> node. Therefore I was doing the following:

    <?php
    while ($xml->read()) {
    if (    $xml->name === 'column') {
    //parse column node to into $columns array
    }
    elseif (    $xml->name === 'row') {
    //parse row node, using constructed $columns array
    }
    }
    ?>

    This kind of worked in that I ended up with an array of all the data I wanted, but the array I constructed was twice as large as I expected and every other entry was empty. Took me a while to debug, but finally figured out that checking <?php $xml->name === 'row' ?> matches both <row> and </row>, so the check should really be something more like:

    <?php

    if ($xml->name === 'row' && $xml->nodeType == XMLReader::ELEMENT) {
    // parse row node
    }

    ?>

    I would have liked to use the next() function instead, but as I needed to parse 2 different subtrees, I couldn't figure out how to find all the columns, reset the pointer, and then find all the rows.

    Another approach to the 'also reads closing tags' gotcha:

    <?php
    $reader     = new XMLReader();
    $reader->open('users.xml');

    while (    $reader->read()) {
    if (    $reader->nodeType == XMLReader::END_ELEMENT) {
    continue;     //skips the rest of the code in this iteration
    }
    //do something with desired node type
    if($reader->name == 'user') {
    //...
    }
    }
    ?>

    If like myself you have been turning the interwebz upside down looking for a solution for this issue:
    PHP Warning: XMLReader::read(): /tmp/xml_feed.xml:4183934: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !

    For some reason, this warning breaks the execution - is it a fatal error in disguise?

    After days of frustration I found it!!!!
    tidy -xml -o output.xml -utf8 -f error.log input.xml

    You can invoque tidy using exec, It takes several seconds to convert a 250Mb feed, but it worthy the time.

    In my case the issue was with latin1 charset, and for some reason I had to pass the xml through tidy 2 times - first time around creates new errors, second time it fixes everything.

    I know invalid xml should be fixed by xml creators, but it works differently in the real world.

    > I would have liked to use the next() function instead, but as I needed to parse 2 different subtrees, I couldn't figure out how to find all the columns, reset the pointer, and then find all the rows.

    I just use:

    $reader->close();
    $reader->open($url);

    to reset the pointer.
