    You can do something like this:

    <?php
$xml = new simplexmlelement('
<order_0>
<product_1>product Name</product_1>
<product_2>product Name</product_2>
<product_3>product Name</product_3>
</order_0>
');
echo count($xml);
?>
    Code (markup):
    Working example: https://3v4l.org/IKcfE

    PS another way of doing this:

    http://php.net/manual/en/simplexmlelement.count.php

    
<?php
$xml = <<<EOF<people>
<person name="Person 1">
<child/>
<child/>
<child/>
</person>
<person name="Person 2">
<child/>
<child/>
<child/>
<child/>
<child/>
</person>
</people>EOF;$elem = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);

foreach ($elem as $person) {printf("%s has got %d children.\n", $person['name'], $person->count());
}?>
    Code (markup):
