\[code\]$results = simplexml_load_string($results);foreach($results as $result){ $result_title = $result->label; $result_title = preg_replace('#[^a-zA-Z]+Extra Title#', '', $result_title); $result_title = ltrim($result_title);\[/code\]The first preg_replace gets rid of a pattern at the end of the $result->label (which var_dumps as an XML object) and outputs, not an XML object, but a string.This is surprising because I thought that preg_replace would only work on strings and not the XML object. A \[code\]var_dump\[/code\] of the $result reveals:\[code\]object(SimpleXMLElement)#1003 (1) { [0]=> string(31) " Some Text > Extra Title" }\[/code\]Note the extra white space before 'Some Text'. The second \[code\]ltrim($result_title);\[/code\], however, causes this error:\[quote\] Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'suggest'\[/quote\]So what am I dealing with? A string or an object? And how do I trim the whitespace?Trying a preg_replace for the first whitespace also outputs the same error as above.\[code\]$result_title = preg_replace('/\s/', '', $result_title, 1);\[/code\]
