Hello everyone. I got this script that sends XML data to United Parcel
Service (UPS) to receive rates.
XML data is sent to the server, and a response is sent back also in XML.
The problem is the parser, the data gets fed into it by url only, and I
would like to feed data to it via a variable that is filled by the curl
process of sending / receiving the XML.
Here is the parser and how I retrieve the data from it:
function startElement($parser, $name, $attrs=''){
global $ary_path;
array_push($ary_path, $name);
}
function endElement($parser, $name, $attrs=''){
global $ary_path;
array_pop($ary_path);
}
function characterData($parser, $data){
global $ary_parsed_file, $ary_path, $int_starting_level;
$str_trimmed_data = trim($data);
if (!empty($str_trimmed_data)) {
$str_array_define = '$ary_parsed_file';
for ($i = $int_starting_level; $i < count($ary_path); $i++) {
$str_array_define .= '[\'' . $ary_path[$i] . '\']';
}
$str_array_define .= " = '" . $str_trimmed_data . "';";
eval($str_array_define);
// DEBUG
//echo "\n" . $str_array_define;
} // if
}
$ary_path = array();
$ary_parsed_file = array();
$int_starting_level = 1;
$xml_file =
'http://www.domain.com/rates.php?zip='.$_SESSION["shipto_zip"].'&session
='.session_id()."&shiptype=".$_SESSION["shiptype"];
$type = 'UTF-8';
$xml_parser = xml_parser_create($type);
xml_parser_set_option($xml_parser, XML_OPTION_CASE_FOLDING, true);
xml_parser_set_option($xml_parser, XML_OPTION_TARGET_ENCODING, 'UTF-8');
xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, 'startElement','endElement');
xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, 'characterData');
if (!($fp = fopen($xml_file, 'r'))) {
die("Could not open $xml_file for parsing!\n");
}
while ($data = fread($fp, 1024000)) {
if (!($data = utf8_encode($data))) {
echo 'ERROR'."\n";
}
if (!xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, feof($fp))) {
die(sprintf( "XML error: %s at line %d\n\n",
xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),
xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));
}
}
xml_parser_free($xml_parser);
//print_r($ary_parsed_file);
#///// This loads up retrieves values into sessions for use in the
shopping cart.
$_SESSION["shipping_price"]=$ary_parsed_file['RATEDSHIPMENT']['TOTALCHAR
GES']['MONETARYVALUE'];
$_SESSION["shipping_weight"]=$ary_parsed_file['RATEDSHIPMENT']['BILLINGW
EIGHT']['WEIGHT'];
The file this script is connecting to (rates.php) is the actual script
and curl process that sends / receives the XML data to and from ups's
servers. The above code is just the parser.
Thank you in advance for any help.
