[PHP] Re: XML to Array
Hi,
use https://github.com/theseer/fDOMDocument. You can install it over
PEAR. You can use it like
$xml = 'xmlroottest id=my_id /';
$dom = new fDOMDocument();
$dom-loadXML($xml);
// get attribute
$elementNode = $dom-queryOne('//test[@id=my_id]');
echo $elementNode-nodeValue;

Hi Guys,
I am hoping someone can guide me or help me fix this issue.
I have been lost in the code for some time now.
I am trying to get the attributes of an xml node.

}
}
...
I do admit I haven't the foggiest idea what I am doing here, so I am
noobing out here on how this php function is really working.
I got it off php.net and am trying to implement it in my code. Without
my addition it works well except it doesn't grab any attributes
which I need in order for my script to work properly.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
TIA,
Best,
Karl

Richard Luckhurst wrote:
Hi List
I have taken the advice of a number of people on the list and am back trying to
write my XML parser using SimpleXML. I am having a problem and I believe the
problem is my lack of understanding of arrays and simpleXML in spite of much
google searching and manual reading. I would appreciate some help.
The piece of XML I am parsing is as follows. I am working with a small section
to see if I can get my head around it.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
?ypsilon RNGSchema=fareResponse.rnc type=compact?
fareResponse cntTarifs=122 offset=0
vcrSummary
vcr minPrice=1667 maxPrice=1667 totalTarifs=1
currency=USDAA/vcr
vcr minPrice=1374 maxPrice=4704 totalTarifs=2
currency=USDPR/vcr
/vcrSummary
/fareResponse
If I use the following
$file = test.xml;
$data = simplexml_load_file($file);
foreach ($data-vcrSummary as $vcrSummary)
{
var_dump($vcrSummary);
}
Then I get
object(SimpleXMLElement)#5 (1) {
[vcr]=
array(2) {
[0]=
string(2) AA
[1]=
string(2) PR
}
}
Which is pretty much what I would expect as there are 2 vcr tags.
If I then use
$file = test.xml;
$data = simplexml_load_file($file);
foreach($data as $vcrSummary)
{
$z = $vcrSummary-vcr;
print $z \n;
}
I get 3 blank lines and then AA which is the first of the two vcr values. The
examples I am looking at suggest I should have gotten both of the vcr values.
Many of the examples I am looking at say to use echo instead of print, eg
echo $vcrSummary-vcr;
and that just gives me AA and not both values that I would expect.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here.

Delete the initial extra line in:

The XML Parser expects the XML document to start with a valid XML

with an newline.
$xml_data = EOF

No, the problem involves characters in the text that are Illegal XML characters much like is an Illegal XML character. Only, the one the character that my software is reporting as illegal is apparently not one that is caught by the normal filters (like htmlentities or even some functions specifically coded for XML that I found on the PHP.net website). I think the problem with the filters that I have tried is that they only attempt to change entities that are can be encoded to something XML safe. Ideally, what I want is something that just removes the offending character if it cannot make it safe for XML. So, say is made into amp; but an unexpected symbol is simply removed. For example (suppose ^ is a symbol that cannot be encode for this example): input: string output: stramp;ing input: str^ing output: string I hope this makes things clear. I think that a function just like htmlentities but one that just removes characters that are illegal but can not be fixed would be the ideal solution.

know the bad characters and in that case, a simple str_replace() is
all you need.
$bad_characters = array('^','*','#');
$text = str_replace($bad_characters,'',$text);
$text = htmlentities($text);
Or, since you don't really know what's bad then you'd want to define
what's good. You could use get_html_translation_table() to find
everything that htmlentities() will convert and then combine those
characters, alphanumeric characters and whitespace into a preg_replace
to match anything that's *not* one of those characters and erase it.

The first one is brilliant for reading xml whose structure you know, the
second is better for xml whose structure you wish to manipulate or
transform.
best, it's built into PHP. If you want a system that can be easily
serialized and unserialized as an object (as in sessions), you're
probably best off using XML_Serializer from PEAR, as neither simplexml

definitely a combination of simplexml and DOM would work. You need DOM
in order to determine what the name of the root node's namespace is to
find RSS 1.0.
http://php.net/simplexml
http://php.net/DOM
for example:
?php
$rss = simplexml_load_file('http://www.example.com/blah.rss');
$dom = new domdocument(1.0);
$dom_rss = $dom-importnode($rss, true);
$dom_rss = $dom-appendchild($rss);
if ($dom_rss-namespaceURI == '') {
$rssversion = '1.0';
} else {
$rssversion = $rss['version'];
}
switch ($rssversion) {
case '1.0' :
case '2.0' :
if (isset($rss-channel-pubDate)) {
echo Publication Date: . $rss-channel-pubDate . br /;
}
case '0.91' :
case '0.92' :
case '0.93' :
case '0.94' :
echo 'a href=';
echo $rss-channel-link;
echo '' . $rss-channel-title . '/abr /';
foreach ($rss-channel-item as $item) {
echo $item-title . 'br /';
echo 'a href=';
echo $item-link;
echo '' . $item-description . '/abr /';
}
break;
}
?
Of course, the full range RSS tags are available to you as object
properties, and attributes as array access (like $rss['version'])

Re: [PHP] Re: XML+XSLT or Smarty again??
Hi, From my point of view, XML+XSLT increases complexity with very less number of advantages. Fundamental of using XML+XSLT with PHP is to seperate HTML code from the PHP and database code. But in the following article, it shows XSL stylesheet comes with full of logic. Do we really need this approach?? At this time i think smarty is separating the presentation from logic in the best manner. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Re: [PHP] Re: XML+XSLT or Smarty again??
IMO, Smarty is just an abstraction of PHP. Smarty templates are HTML templates, but they still contain their own application logic for looping, etc, and so are still not a real separation (or are *dirty*, as 'rush' calls it). XML+HTML+XSLT (or Template Tamer from what I can gather) take it the extra step. The application logic in PHP generates an XML data stream, which contains no dependencies on output. It is simply data. The XSLT parser parses the HTML template (which contains _only_ HTML and placeholders), and when it encounters a placeholder it executes the relevant XSLT code. This way, the design department can design the HTML fully, without having to learn PHP, Smarty, or any other syntax. They just put in placeholder tags wherever information from the XML file is needed. There are drawbacks to every abstraction, and templating is no different. Smarty templates are fast, and are enjoyed by a large user base for their relative simplicity. XML, XSLT, etc are complex and verbose, but provide for maximum abstraction. Template Tamer sounds like it combines the best from both (from what I've heard here). It is a matter of taste, I suppose. I think that people may sometimes waste more time trying to maximize the division between presentation and logic than it's worth. Well written PHP scripts can be almost as good a template as any (by separating the HTML and just using embedded variables).

Re: [PHP] Re: XML+XSLT or Smarty again??
Hello Ok can't refrain from giving my opinion to this one. First of all I think separating presentation from business logic can be achived fairly simple with SMARTY and if your template code acutally contains business logic than you have not understood the concept of the template engine. The only logic that should be included in the template is the presentation logic. This is clearly stated in the docs and on the website. Removing logic from presentation is not possible in my opinion. Basically you always have to have someway of specifiing if something is to be shown or not. SO you basically just remove a complex programming structure and replace it with a somewhat less complex custom template declaration such as if else constructs etc... Also Smarty allows you to build custom tags to include logic into template without programming making it fairly easy to include businesslogic without introducing code. About XSLT as a templating mechanism. I just think it's more complicated and until every browser supports XSLT on the client side I don't see how it improves performance over a custom performance optimized templateengine such as SMARTY. Not to forget that the logic in an XsLT Stylesheet seems as complicated if not more complicated than building customized php code. But then again this is just my opinion. About Templatetamer, didn't have too much time to look at it but I don't like the fact, at least that is the impression I got from your website, that I have to use your tool to create templates. I have my own set of tools and I'd like to stick with them. So editing templates should be as easy as opening your favourite editor. So there is no real pro or con. Every situation has their advantage but IMHO if you are using XSLT just for separation purposes it is an overkill and makes things to complicated. If you need to transfer constructs into other languages such as perl etc... then thats a whole different situation... Regards Stefan

Hello, From my point of view, both XML+XSLT and smarty have dirty templates, in sense, that their templates contain both html, and controling code. While some people consider this nice, I prefer templates that do not contain logic and controling code, so this is the way TemplateTamer works. With TT templates contain only markers fot templates and variables, and programmer is responsible for returning and array containing information about templates to be displayed and values of variables, and TT framework does the rest. This does have some resemblance to XML+XSLT approach but with following differences: a) there are no contol structures (or code) inside of templates b) data tree is easier and much less costly to asssemble since it is implemented with simple arrays c) all other glueing is done by TT framework.

[PHP] Re: XML and XLS Sablotron
You'll need the SAX or DOM functions if you will be /generating/ your XML. I suppose, you mean, generating XML from another XML document, am I right? The Sablotron extension (and other XSLT processors) take XML and XSLT and output whatever your XSLT tells it to. The XSLT processor depends on getting well-formed XML and XSLT and that's where the DOM functions come in. Technically, you could use the DOM functions to build an XML document, use them to build an XSLT stylesheet and then send those two generated items through the XSLT processor to build HTML. So, if I well understood, in case you simply want to manually write XML documents and XSLT stylesheets, and then have the PHP (Sablotron in the specific) to make the produce your HTML from it, you don't need SAX or DOM. Is this correct, or am I missing something? Does this mean that you only need SAX or DOM if you want to convert an XML format to another XML format?

I alway knew there is an easier way to do that. Problem is just don't know
it. I like your example and it is an wonderful example. I can use it. One
quick question. The function, posttofunction(), is that a make-believe
function? I check PHP.net and it doesn't have this function, so I assume
you just put it there to make a point about the whole script.

So, it meant I have to use the post request that would send the data to

credit bureau by cURL. Is there a way to do that??
As I recall, only the DOM model can easily add/alter nodes to an XML
document. SAX would be not useful... (Or was it the other way
around...?)
Anyway, you may be trying too hard :-)
Unless your credit bureau is incredibly different from all the rest, it

I mean, really, do you want to make life all complicated by trying to

some giant XML data structure when all you really need is one stupid
little
never-changing string with the data in it?
If you're building a complex application to *TRADE* tons of info with your

with complex data structures so you can easily alter it when they change
the
DTD out from under you or whatever.
But if you are just sending the one kind of XML request off to the credit
bureau, don't make your life complicated for no real reason.

Hi y'all Has anyone found any problems with the xml parsing functions when the xml document gets quite large. eg, a doc with about 5000 lines (about 200KB) The problem that's occurring is that some of the elements are being broken in two parts If you require more details, please ask, as it's one of my colleagues that is having this problem and I'll need her to pass on an example if needed. I've heard that the DOM is a memory hog... Are you using DOM or the other one, or ??? It's also quite possible that somewhere deep into the XML somebody line-wrapped an element, which is prefectly valid, but that isn't anticipated by your algorithm for reading/parsing the file... That's the most likely source of the problem as described. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: XML creation / edit class?
Hello, David McInnis wrote: I am looking for an extension / class that allow me to create and modify XML documents within PHP. I looked at the xml extensions packaged with PHP and it looks like these are used only for parsing XML. In addition to parsing the XML, I need to be able to add / edit and insert nodes. Best example I can give is an order. I would need to create an order and then insert / edit and delete line items of that order. Can someone point me in the write direction? I have written a XML parser and a XML writer classes. The XML parser class builds the XML document structure in a single array. You can take that structure and store in the a XML writer class object The XML writer does not yes have functions to insert or delete XML nodes, but you can use it to directly alter or append new XML nodes, if that is enough for you purposes.

RE: [PHP] Re: XML closing elements called for tag /
if you set up the xml_set_character_data_handler(), maybe this isn't called for tag /, but it will be called for tag/tag (??) you might want to check that 'cause I haven't :) Martin -Original Message- From: Christian Stocker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2002 10:50 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Re: XML closing elements called for tag / In 000a01c1af5a$dbf70140$73fd883e@laptop, Hammy wrote: Is there any way to suppress or detect when the closing element event fires from tags in the form tag / rather than tag/tag? no, i don't think so.

The XML files contains some static information (header, footers and common non-dynamic information). We would like to have a XML file that would contain a field like: MENU ... ... ... MENU/ Before the XML file is loaded into the PHP script that uses the xslt_process routine to convert the XML/XSLT files into plain HTML we would like to replace the MENU field with come dynamic content (eg. some other variables, etc.) What's the easiest way to do that? SAX or? Load the XML into a variable, do whatever changes to it, then process the variable with xslt_process. Furthermore the 'xslt_process' function requires the following parameters: xslt_process (resource xh, string xml, string xsl [, string result [, array arguments [, array parameters]]]) where the XML and XSLT variables are references to files. - The XML file is in our example a variable (eg. $current_xml_file = x;) and therefor we cannot use the xslt_process function? Of cause we can store the XML var. in a temporary location and then read the file, but that's an extreamly ugly approach! :) Any ideas? Have a look at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xslt-process.php Example 3 Using the xslt_process() to transform a variable containing XML data and a variable containing XSL data into a variable containing the resulting XML data I'm looking forward to your replies :) Yours -- Lasse Laursen [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Systems Developer NetGroup A/S, St. Kongensgade 40H, DK-1264 København K, Denmark Phone: +45 3370 1526 - Fax: +45 3313 0066 - Web: www.netgroup.dk Peter Clarke -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] Re: XML Parsing Problem
Hi Ben, Had the same problem. The solution I came up with was to populate the value repeatedly by concantenation. $thisxmlval .= (whatever is sent from the parser). Note the . in front of the = As long as the parser is still sending values from this tag, your program should concantenate them, thereby producing one value which was the original content of the tag. kind regards, bill Ben Gollmer wrote: Hi all - I'm experimenting with PHP's XML parser for an application that maps XML tags to MySQL database fields. As a test for my parsing program, I've been grabbing XML from the Slashdot news feed (http://www.slashdot.org/slashdot.xml) and inserting it into a database. This is very simple data - titleblah/title gets inserted into the 'title' field, etc. However, when there are some strange characters in the title field, the XML parser seems to choke. Here is an example. The title of a recent article from Slashdot looks like this in the XML file: titleFollow-up To Critique of BeOS amp;amp; Mac OS X/title Don't ask my why they have a double ampersand in there... Anyway, the XML parser returns this as three sets of data, instead of one. The array that I get looks like this: $myArray[0] = Follow-up To Critique of BeOS $myArray[1] = $myArray[2] = amp; Mac OS X This is the data I get back from the parser, BEFORE putting it into the database. I'm echoing each array field to the screen, just to make sure. So I know it has nothing to do with MySQL. The double ampersand shouldn't make a difference - the XML parser should not be interpreting HTML...right? Also, I don't get an error code or error string from xml_parse(). Anyone have any ideas? This is a subtle bug - in fact I had been satisfied with my XML parsing code, and was well into the rest of my application when I happened to notice this.

[PHP] Re: Xml Parse Extended Chars
The only predefine entities in XML are lt; gt; amp; all others need to be defined in the dtd. Best thing to do is leave the charatef as is in the xml and only run htmlentites on the contents when sending the contents to an html web browser. The xml will happily hold the character as it is. If you're using the XML Parser functions, you can choose the target character encoding: ISO-8859-1 (default) US-ASCII UTF-8 Chris Noble [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Because it is not compatible with XML syntax. Following is incorrect in
XML, because '' has very restricted usage:
tag
% echo Date("d.m.Y") %
/tag
If you use ?php instead, it is perfect XML and you can use any XML

tag
?php echo Date("d.m.Y") ?
