//using PHP dom-xml to create and parse XML files





//Create an XML Document object, and subsequent processing will be done on this basis


$doc = New_xmldoc ("1.0");





//Create the root node and set a property


$root = $doc->add_root ("FAQ");


$root->setattr ("page", "32");





//child node


$one = $root->new_child ("question", "");


//Set properties for child nodes


$one->setattr ("number", "1");


//question also creates a child node and assigns it a value


$one->new_child ("text", "1.")   Where to get libxml-2.0.0? ");


$one->new_child ("Answer", "You can download the latest


release of Libxml either as a source archive or


RPM package from http://www.xmlsoft.org.


the current version is libxml2-2.2.1. ");





$two = $root->new_child ("question", "");


$two->setattr ("number", "2");


$two->new_child ("text", "2.")   How to configure PHP4? ");


//Create a node that does not directly assign value


$twoone = $two->new_child ("Answer", "");


//Then assign the value to it individually


$twoone->set_content ("DIR is" libxml install directory


(if you are just use--with-dom it defaults


to/usr), I needed to use--with-dom=/usr/local ");





$three = $root->new_child ("question", "");


$three->setattr ("number", "7");


$three->new_child ("text", "7.")   How do I use DOM XML function? ");


$three->new_child ("Answer", "Read this document source for


a simple example. ");





//Output to browser


print ("<pre>" Htmlspecialchars ($doc->dumpmem ()). "   </pre> ");





Write to File


/write back to file


$fp = fopen ("Test_dom.xml", "w+");


fwrite ($fp, $doc->dumpmem (), strlen ($doc->dumpmem ()));


fclose ($FP);





  // ------------------------------------------------------


//Now use XPath to get content from XML documents





$doc = xmldoc (Join ("", File ("Test_dom.xml"));


$ctx = Xpath_new_context ($doc);





//All Objects


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//child::*");


Print_r ($foo);


print ("<br/><br/>");


//text Node Object


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//text");


Print_r ($foo);


print ("<br/><br/>");


//First text node object


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//text[1]");


Print_r ($foo);


print ("<br/><br/>");


//Second Text node object


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//text[2]");


Print_r ($foo);


print ("<br/><br/>");


//Third Answer object


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//answer[3]");


Print_r ($foo);


print ("<br/><br/>");





//Third text node type, name and content


$foo = Xpath_eval ($ctx, "//text[3]");


$tmp = $foo->nodeset;


Print_r ($tmp);


print ("<br/>");


print ($tmp [0]->type).   "; ";


print ($tmp [0]->name).   "; ";


print ($tmp [0]->content);
