DOM XML Функции
Deprecated functions
There are quite a few functions that do not fit into the DOM standard and should no longer be used. These functions are listed in the following table. The function DomNode_append_child() has changed its behaviour. It now adds a child and not a sibling. If this breaks your application, use the non-DOM function DomNode_append_sibling().
| Old function | New function |
|---|---|
| xmldoc | domxml_open_mem() |
| xmldocfile | domxml_open_file() |
| domxml_new_xmldoc | domxml_new_doc() |
| domxml_dump_mem | DomDocument_dump_mem() |
| domxml_dump_mem_file | DomDocument_dump_file() |
| DomDocument_dump_mem_file | DomDocument_dump_file() |
| DomDocument_add_root | DomDocument_create_element() followed by DomNode_append_child() |
| DomDocument_dtd | DomDocument_doctype() |
| DomDocument_root | DomDocument_document_element() |
| DomDocument_children | DomNode_child_nodes() |
| DomDocument_imported_node | No replacement. |
| DomNode_add_child | Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_element() and add it with DomNode_append_child(). |
| DomNode_children | DomNode_child_nodes() |
| DomNode_parent | DomNode_parent_node() |
| DomNode_new_child | Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_element() and add it with DomNode_append_child(). |
| DomNode_set_content | Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_text_node() and add it with DomNode_append_child(). |
| DomNode_get_content | Content is just a text node and can be accessed with DomNode_child_nodes(). |
| DomNode_set_content | Content is just a text node and can be added with DomNode_append_child(). |
Classes
The API of the module follows the DOM Level 2 standard as closely as possible. Consequently, the API is fully object-oriented. It is a good idea to have the DOM standard available when using this module. Though the API is object-oriented, there are many functions which can be called in a non-object-oriented way by passing the object to operate on as the first argument. These functions are mainly to retain compatibility to older versions of the extension, and should not be used when creating new scripts.
This API differs from the official DOM API in two ways. First, all class attributes are implemented as functions with the same name. Secondly, the function names follow the PHP naming convention. This means that a DOM function lastChild() will be written as last_child().
This module defines a number of classes, which are listed - including their method - in the following tables. Classes with an equivalent in the DOM standard are named DOMxxx.

Примеры
Many examples in this reference require an XML string. Instead of repeating this string in every example, it will be put into a file which will be included by each example. This include file is shown in the following example section. Alternatively, you could create an XML document and read it with DomDocument_open_file().
Пример #1 Include file example.inc with XML string

If you're having trouble understanding how the the DOM XML extension fits together you may find the UML diagram here helps: http://www.phppatterns.com/index.php/article/articleview/38This recursive function will iterate over a DOM object and display it as a nicely formatted XML structure. I used intuitive variable names to help learn more about the DOM functions and their return values.
<<?php
function PrintDomTree($DomNode)
{
if ($ChildDomNode = $DomNode->first_child()) {
static $depth = 0;
$whitespace = "\n<br>".str_repeat(" ", ($depth * 2));
while ($ChildDomNode) {
if ($ChildDomNode->node_type() == XML_TEXT_NODE) {
echo trim($ChildDomNode->node_value());
} elseif ($ChildDomNode->node_type() == XML_ELEMENT_NODE) {
$HasTag = 1;
echo $whitespace;
echo "<", $ChildDomNode->node_name();
if ($ChildDomNode->has_attributes()) {
$Array = $ChildDomNode->attributes();
foreach ($Array AS $DomAttribute) {
echo " ", $DomAttribute->name(), "=\"", $DomAttribute->value(), "\"";
}
}
echo ">";
if ($ChildDomNode->has_child_nodes()) {
$depth++;
if (PrintDomTree($ChildDomNode)) {
echo $whitespace;
}
$depth--;
}
echo "</", $ChildDomNode->node_name(), ">";
}
$ChildDomNode = $ChildDomNode->next_sibling();
}
return $HasTag;
}
}

Hey;
If you need to parse XML on an older version of PHP (e.g. 4.0) or if you can't get the expat extension enabled on your server, you might want to check out the Saxy and DOMIT! xml parsers from Engage Interactive. They're opensource and pure php, so no extensions or changes to your server are required. I've been using them for over a month on some projects with no problems whatsoever!
Check em out at:
DOMIT!, a DOM based xml parser, uses Saxy (included)
http://www.engageinteractive.com/redir.php?resource=3&target=domit
or
Saxy, a sax based xml parser
http://www.engageinteractive.com/redir.php?resource=4&target=saxy
Brad
You can always use a sax parser (expat) which saves on memory storage (there is none as sax is event driven) and use this neat code to produce an array structure of you xml file :
see http://fr2.php.net/manual/fr/function.xml-parse.php

I recently developed a script for parsing DHL XML transaction responses - finding it a pain in the rear to actually parse the XML and set my variables - it actually wasn't that hard once I figured it out - and it goes something like this...
<?php
// Use with a class containing functions set_attributes() and
// set_data(). Use the following to set variables from the
// resulting xml. $node is a dom xml object - in the first call
// to loop, $node would be equal to the root document
// element.
function loop($node) {
// set attribute tags here
if ($node->has_attributes()) {
$this->set_attributes($node);
} // end if node has attributes
if ($node->has_child_nodes()) {
$this->loop($node->first_child());
} // end if node has child
else {
$this->set_data($node);
} // end if node has no child
// get next sibling
$node = $node->next_sibling();
if ($node) {
$this->loop($node);
} // end if node
} // end function loop
?>
The code goes from the root element, if the element has attributes - it sets attribute variables. Second, it recursively proceeds to the lowest level element (no more children). Once that level has been reached, data variables are set. The next step goes to the next sibling of the element, if it exists. If the next sibling does not exists, the function is ended and the current element is returned to the parent element. The parent element is then checked for siblings. This process continues (as is with recursion) until the parent element is back at the root element, which is the end of the document.
If you are using apache, instead of copying files around (iconv.dll for instance) you can use this in your httpd.conf for apache:
LoadFile "d:/php/dlls/iconv.dll"
I placed this line before
LoadModule php4_module "d:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
and it worked, no copying of files or anything therefore helps when updating php, don't have to mess around searching for files and other stuff.
Hi at All,
if you use xpath_eval() you get a xpathobject with a type-member-variable, which tells you about the type of the found content. Here are the values and the corresponding types:
1 = XPATH_NODESET (integer)
2 = XPATH_BOOLEAN (integer)
3 = XPATH_NUMBER (integer)
4 = XPATH_STRING (integer)
I think, but don't know, that the rest of the constants are:
0 = XPATH_UNDEFINED (integer)
5 = XPATH_POINT (integer)
6 = XPATH_RANGE (integer)
7 = XPATH_LOCATIONSET (integer)
I hope i could help some people.
Greetz,
Chris
The PHP 5.0 DOM is very powerful to create and work on valid RSS Feeds. I found a easy to follow step-by-step-tutorial here:http://xml-rss.de/xml-rss-feed-mit-php.htm
(in german language but the code can be understand in every language i think) maybe it helps someone to understand the DOM-Thing better. But beware it don´t work on PHP 4!
