How to convert XML to array in PHP

If you use curl to get the xml data
xml=simplexmlloadstring(data);
data[′tk′]=jsondecode(jsonencode(xml),TRUE);
If you get the URL data directly
xml=simplexmlloadfile(data) ;
data[′tk′]=jsondecode(jsonencode(xml),TRUE);
First convert the simplexml object into json, and then convert the json into an array.

Code:

<?php
$string = <<<XML
<?xml version=&#39;1.0&#39;?> 
<document>
 <title>Forty What?</title>
 <from>Joe</from>
 <to>Jane</to>
 <body>
 I know that&#39;s the answer -- but what&#39;s the question?
 </body>
</document>
XML;
 
$xml=simplexml_load_string($string);
$data = json_decode(json_encode($xml),TRUE);
var_dump( $xml );
var_dump( $data );

object(SimpleXMLElement)[1]
 public &#39;title&#39; => string &#39;Forty What?&#39; (length=11)
 public &#39;from&#39; => string &#39;Joe&#39; (length=3)
 public &#39;to&#39; => string &#39;Jane&#39; (length=4)
 public &#39;body&#39; => string &#39;
 I know that&#39;s the answer -- but what&#39;s the question?
 &#39; (length=57)
array
 &#39;title&#39; => string &#39;Forty What?&#39; (length=11)
 &#39;from&#39; => string &#39;Joe&#39; (length=3)
 &#39;to&#39; => string &#39;Jane&#39; (length=4)
 &#39;body&#39; => string &#39;
 I know that&#39;s the answer -- but what&#39;s the question?
 &#39; (length=57)
