 * Hello all!
 * I’m currently trying to use PHP to display some XML data I have from a third 
   party. We’re trying to display baseball information in a sortable table. Currently
   the code works but I need to know how to parse out and show only some of the 
   data as opposed to all of it. Here’s one line from the XML:
 * >  `<Team LeagueId="1" league="AL" DivisionId="1" Div="East" TeamId="9" Abbr="
   > NYA" CityName="New York" Nickname="Yankees" Wins="97" Losses="65" Rank="1" 
   > GamesBack="0.0" Wins10="5" Losses10="5" />`
 * For example, I’d like to only show all entries where DivisionId=”1″. Here’s the
   code I’m using, in full, to display the data:
 * >     ```
   >     // load SimpleXML<br />
   >     $standings2011 = new SimpleXMLElement('standings_2011.xml', null, true);</p>
   >     <p>echo <<<EOF<br />
   >     <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.example.com/xmlstyle.css" /><br />
   >     <script src="http://www.example.com/sorttable.js"></script><br />
   >     <table class="xml sortable"><br />
   >             <tr><br />
   >                     <th>League</th><br />
   >                     <th>Team</th><br />
   >                     <th>Wins</th><br />
   >                     <th>Losses</th><br />
   >                     <th>Games Back</th><br />
   >             </tr><br />
   >     EOF;</p>
   >     <p>// loop through our books</p>
   >     <p>foreach($standings2011 as $Team) {<br />
   >             echo <<<EOF<br />
   >             <tr><br />
   >                     <td>{$Team['league']} {$Team['Div']}</td><br />
   >                     <td>{$Team['CityName']} {$Team['Nickname']}</td><br />
   >                     <td>{$Team['Wins']}</td><br />
   >                     <td>{$Team['Losses']}</td><br />
   >                     <td>{$Team['GamesBack']}</td><br />
   >             </tr></p>
   >     <p>EOF;<br />
   >     }<br />
   >     echo '</table>';
   >     ```

 * Any help would be so great!
