It seems like when dealing with nodes which have CDATA, I cannot get
access to both the attributes of that node and the CDATA of that node
with the same simplexml_load_string() call. Consider the following:
$previewString =
'<root><message><![CDATA[lkjlkjklj]]></message><buttons><button
name="Add Me"><![CDATA[This is my free form
text]]></button></buttons></root>';
When passing LIBXML_NOCDATA:
echo '<pre>' . print_r( json_decode( json_encode(
(array)simplexml_load_string( $previewString, 'SimpleXMLElement',
LIBXML_NOCDATA | LIBXML_NOBLANKS )), 1 ), TRUE ) . '</pre>';
yields the following output :
Array
(
[message] => lkjlkjklj
[buttons] => Array
(
[button] => This is my free form text
)
)
So I get the CDATA but I don't get the "name" attribute for the button.
When not using LIBXML_NOCDATA:
echo '<pre>' . print_r( json_decode( json_encode(
(array)simplexml_load_string( $previewString, 'SimpleXMLElement',
LIBXML_NOBLANKS )), 1 ), TRUE ) . '</pre>';
yields the following output :
Array
(
[message] => Array
(
)
[buttons] => Array
(
[button] => Array
(
[@attributes] => Array
(
[name] => Add Me
)
)
)
)
I get the attributes but not the CDATA. Looking at the doc page for
simplexml_load_string()
(http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-load-string.php and
http://us.php.net/manual/en/libxml.constants.php), I don't see a way
to get access to both. Am I missing something? Or is this really not
possible?
thnx,
Christoph
