Php class to pharse XML

I am writing a simple class to read XML file and store its elements inside separate variables. As i finished writting my class and start testing it I noticed that it does not return anything..?

My php code:

<?php

class feedXML{

//Declear Vars
public $mysongs;
public $title;
public $artist;
public $date;


//Load XML file
public function loadXML(){
    $this->mysongs = simplexml_load_file('songs.xml');
}

//Assign XML data to Vars
public function setXMLdata(){

    foreach($this->mysongs as $songinfo){

        $this->title=$songinfo->title;
        $this->artist=$songinfo->artist;
        $this->date=$songinfo['dateplayed'];

    }//end foreach
}

//Return Title element
public function getTitle(){
    echo $this->title;
}
//Return Artist element
public function getArtist(){
    echo $this->artist;
}
//Return Date element
public function getDate(){
    echo $this->date;
} }

$test = new feedXML(); $test->getDate();

XML file structure:

songs song - title - artist - song song - title - artist - song song - title - artist - song songs

I am trying to echo out the variables but nothing appear on the browser..?

The code you gave never reads or interacts with the XML file, therefore $date is never set. You need to call your loadXML and setXMLdata functions.
