(No version information available, might be only in CVS)
DOMXPath::evaluate — Evaluates the given XPath expression and returns a typed result if possible.
Описание
Executes the given XPath expression and returns a typed result if possible.
Список параметров
- expression
-
The XPath expression to execute.
- contextnode
-
The optional contextnode can be specified for doing relative XPath queries. By default, the queries are relative to the root element.
Возвращаемые значения
Returns a typed result if possible or a DOMNodeList containing all nodes matching the given XPath expression .
Примеры
Пример #1 Getting the count of all the english books
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->load('book.xml');
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
$tbody = $doc->getElementsByTagName('tbody')->item(0);
// our query is relative to the tbody node
$query = 'count(row/entry[. = "en"])';
$entries = $xpath->evaluate($query, $tbody);
echo "There are $entries english books\n";
?>
Результат выполнения данного примера:
There are 2 english books

this class can substitute the method evaluate while it is not validated. Made for Yuri Bastos and Jo�o Gilberto Magalh�es.

If your expression returns a node set, you will get a DOMNodeList instead of a typed result. Instead, try modifying your expression from "//node[1]" to "string(//node[1])".Note that this method does not provide any means to distinguish between a successful result that returns FALSE and an error.
For example, this will succeed and return FALSE:
<?php $xpath->evaluate("1 = 0"); ?>
One workaround when you know you are expecting a Boolean is to wrap the result with string(). e.g.
<?php $xpath->evaluate("string(1 = 0)"); ?>
This will return a string "false" on success, or the Boolean FALSE on error.
To query DOMNodes by their HTML classes, use such snippet
<?php
// CssClassXPathSelector
function ccxs($class) {
return '[contains(concat(" ", normalize-space(@class), " "), " ' . $class . ' ")]';
}
// then just
$domitems = $this->xpath("//*[@id='searchResultsRows']//a" . ccxs('listing_row'));
?>
The only way how to distinguish FALSE returned value from syntax error FALSE is to re-run the XPath expression wrapped in string() function. If must return empty string. If it returns FALSE again then it is an error.
<?php
$ret=$this->xp->evaluate($eval, $context);
// Error detection: DOMXPath::evaluate() returns FALSE on error
// so does DOMXPath::evaluate("boolean(/nothing)")
// @workaround webdevelopers.eu
if ($ret === false && $this->xp->evaluate("string($eval)", $context) === false) {
throw new Exception("Invalid XPath expression ".json_encode($eval), 3491);
}
