Description:
------------
I create an SimpleXmlElement, and see if one of the member variable array's in an array, and it says it is not. But I am able to foreach through the array, and when I do, the key states they 2nd parent's key as the key.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.


 [2007-09-06 22:38 UTC] jani@php.net
Please, try come up with shorter script that clearly (!) shows the problem you have. (without the extra empty lines please)
 [2007-09-10 01:06 UTC] hubert dot roksor at gmail dot com
This is not a bug. The reporter expects is_array() to return true when passed a SimpleXML_Element object.

@rockerboo: even though you can access a SimpleXML_Element as an array, it doesn't mean that it is considered as an array, therefore is_array() is expected to return false.
 [2007-09-14 01:00 UTC] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net
No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is
being suspended automatically. If you are able to provide the
