Simplexml_load_file ForEach Loop Not Working

I am trying to load an xml file into php, pulls informationfrom it, and store that information into my MySQL database. The following code works for me up until the foreach loop...if I take that out and put in a Insert by itself, the Insert works fine and the data gets put in my database. My thought is that there is something wrong with the foreach loop but everything I have found on the web suggest that my code is correct. Could someone take a look and let me know if I have everything correct. When I run the code it gets to the foreach its like it just skips over the foreach loop. Below is my code and the xml file and am pulling from. Let me know if you need anymore information.


MY CODE

file_put_contents('results.xml', $result);

$url = "xml->results.xml";
$xml = simplexml_load_file($url);

$link = mysql_connect('ipAddress', 'username', 'password');
if (!$link) {die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());}
echo 'Connected successfully';

mysql_select_db("test", $link);


foreach($xml->Order as $order)
{
echo("INSERT INTO jake(test2, test3) Values ('".$order->ShippingName."','".$order->ShippingName."')");
}

mysql_close($link);
exit(0);

ASKER

I have found out that it has something to do with either the xml file itself or my structure of my foreach loop...testing a different xml file and php script proved that what I am trying to do will work with my system but when I replace the test xml file with the xml file I am working with and change the foreach loop accordingly it stops working. Please help!
