Hi Jochem, I am sorry I did not get back to you earlier, as my 'weekend' is Monday and Tuesday. sorry for what? and what's a weekend? Please do not let this reflect poorly on phpwomen as they have been a did you notice the smiley? great help to me in starting PHP and your help led me to the final solution to get my code working as I needed, and I thank you for that. In future I will refrain from asking on this list and stay with the forums. why? this list beats any forum hands down :-) we have Pedantic Rob, the-guy-that-wrote-the-da-vinci-code, somone whose been programming since they were doing it with Rocks[tm] and a concentration of other high class php-wizards you won't find anywhere else outside of the internals group. ... oh and there's me. but you can't have everything. granted the humor's a little whack but you get used to it, before you know it 'your one of them'. Thank you again for you guidance no problem. :-) J -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] DOM recursion
I am trying to create a class that recursively iterates over an array an creates XML tree to reflect a multidimensional array. I am not really a PHP coder, but am trying my hand. This is what I have so far. http://pastie.org/private/w75vyq9ub09p0uawteyieq I have tried a few methods, but I keep failing. Currently, all elements are appended to the root node. How can I fix this so that the XML tree, correctly reflects the array tree.

Currently, all elements are appended to the root node.
line 44 is the issue (kind of), you're always adding to the root node,
regardless of 'level'
the createNode func needs a little extra something, I played with it for a few
minutes
and come up with this .. probably not exactly what you need but it might offer
a little inspiration (not I also changed the form of the input array a little):
?php
class array2xml extends DomDocument
{
private $xpath;
private $root;
public function __construct($arr, $root='root')
{
parent::__construct();
/*** set the encoding ***/
$this-encoding = ISO-8859-1;
/*** format the output ***/
$this-formatOutput = true;
/*** create the root element ***/
$this-root = $this-appendChild($this-createElement( $root ));
$this-xpath = new DomXPath($this);
}
/*
* creates the XML representation of the array
*
* @accesspublic
* @paramarrayThe array to convert
*/
public function createNode( $arr, $node = null)
{
if (is_null($node))
$node = $this-root;
foreach($arr as $element = $value) {
if (is_numeric($element)) {
if (is_array($value))
self::createNode($value, $node);
} else {
$child = $this-createElement($element, (is_array($value) ?
null : $value));
$node-appendChild($child);
if (is_array($value))
self::createNode($value, $child);
}
}
}
/*
* Return the generated XML as a string
*
* @accesspublic
* @returnstring
*
*/
public function __toString()
{
return $this-saveXML();
}
/*
* array2xml::query() - perform an XPath query on the XML representation of
the array
* @param str $query - query to perform
* @return mixed
*/
public function query($query)
{
return $this-xpath-evaluate($query);
}
}
$array = array('employees'= array('employee' = array(
array(
'name'='bill smith',
'address'=
array('number'=1, 'street'='funny'),
'age'=25),
array(
'name'='tom jones',
'address'=
array('number'=12, 'street'='bunny'),
'age'=88),
array(
'name'='dudley doright',
'address'=
array('number'=88, 'street'='munny'),
'age'=23),
array(
'name'='nellie melba',
'address'=
array('number'=83, 'street'='sunny'),
'age'=83)))
);
try {
$xml = new array2xml('root');
$xml-createNode( $array );
echo $xml;
} catch (Exception $e) {
var_dump($e);
}
How can I fix this so that the XML tree, correctly reflects the array
tree.
TIA
