XML parse

[aaantt]

the followings are XML sample code.

Code XML:

<m:ad xmlns:m="http://www.w3c.org/soap">
<title><![CDATA[TITLE]]></title>
<phone>123456789</phone>
<attributeGroup>
<attribute id="14" name="A1">40</attribute>
<attribute id="15" name="A2">50</attribute>
</attributeGroup>
</m:ad>

I only know PHP XMLReader to get value

Code PHP:

while ( $reader->read() ) {
if ( $reader->nodeType ==XMLReader::ELEMENT && $reader->name == "attribute" ) {
printf("id=%s, name=%s\n", $reader->getAttribute('id'), $reader->getAttribute('name'));
}
}

But how to get attribute A1, A2 . I would like to get 40, and 50 both .Like this

id=14, name=A1, value 40
id=15, name=A2, value 50

 

Thanks inadvanced

The "40" and "50" are not attributes, they're the tags' content (or value).

To find out how to get that, please see the SimpleXML examples in the PHP manual.

$xml = ' 
<m:ad xmlns:m="http://www.w3c.org/soap">
<title><![CDATA[TITLE]]></title>
<phone>123456789</phone>
<attributeGroup>
<attribute id="14" name="A1">40</attribute>
<attribute id="15" name="A2">50</attribute>
</attributeGroup>
</m:ad>';

$reader = new XMLReader();
$reader->xml($xml);

$id   = null;
$name = null;

while($reader->read() ) {
if ($reader->nodeType == XMLReader::ELEMENT && $reader->name == "attribute") {
$id   = $reader->getAttribute('id');
$name = $reader->getAttribute('name');
printf("id=%s, name=%s\n", $id, $name);
} 
if(isset($id) && isset($name) && $reader->nodeType == XMLReader::TEXT) {
printf("value = %s", $reader->value);
echo '<br />'; 
} 
}

/** 
Result:
id=14, name=A1 value = 40 
id=15, name=A2 value = 50
*/ 
 

2nd method

$p = xml_parser_create();
xml_parse_into_struct($p, $xml, $values, $index);
xml_parser_free($p);

foreach($values as $v) {
if(array_key_exists('attributes', $v)) {
$attributes = $v['attributes'];
if(array_key_exists('ID', $attributes) 
&& array_key_exists('NAME', $attributes)) {
echo 'id = ' .  $attributes['ID'] . ', '; 
echo 'name = ' . $attributes['NAME'] . ', '; 
echo 'value ' . $v['value'] . ' <br />'; 
} 
}
}

/**
Result
id = 14, name = A1, value 40 
id = 15, name = A2, value 50 
*/
