You could do something like this:

<?php

$resource1 = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
$resource2 = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);

$array1 = $resource1->string;
$array2 = $resource2->string;

$differences = array_diff($array1, $array2);

Or maybe you could loop through the first one looking for items in the 2nd.

foreach($array1 as $key => $value) { if(array_key_exists($key, $array2) && $array1[$key] === $array2[$key] ) { echo "$key is the same."; } }
