note 71472 added to function.xml-parse-into-struct

That parser also has a problem in which it will not parse
more items than the current level it is on. That is, parsing
this: 
<1><2>A</2><2>B</2><2>C&
lt;/2></1>
Will only result in this: A B
C is never processed.

It might be better with something like this:
          $file = get_url('http://news.search.yahoo.com/news/rss?p=current+events
', URL_CONTENT);
          $data = $file['content'];
          $xml_parser = xml_parser_create();
          xml_parse_into_struct($xml_parser, $data, $vals,
$index);
          xml_parser_free($xml_parser);
          //Uncomment the lines below to see the entire
structure of your XML document
          //echo "<pre>INDEX: n";
          //print_r ($index);
          //echo "n n n VALUES:";
          //print_r ($vals);
          //echo "</pre>";
          $params = array();
          $level = array();
          $start_level = 1;
          foreach ($vals as $xml_elem) {
            if ($xml_elem['type'] == 'open') {
              if (array_key_exists('attributes',$xml_elem))
{
                list($level[$xml_elem['level']],$extra) =
array_values($xml_elem['attributes']);
              } else {
                $level[$xml_elem['level']] =
$xml_elem['tag'];
              }
            }
            if ($xml_elem['type'] == 'complete') {
              $php_stmt = '$params';
              while($start_level < $xml_elem['level']) {
                $php_stmt .= '[$level['.$start_level.']]';
                $start_level++;
              }
              $php_stmt .= '[$xml_elem['tag']][] =
$xml_elem['value'];';
              eval($php_stmt);
              $start_level--;
            }
          }
          echo "<pre>";
          print_r ($params);
          echo "</pre>";
