RE: [PHP] Object assignment

Since I can't see the source for append_child(), I'll assume you're using the $key as the index?? If so, try changing it to just a numeric index, ie, 0, 1, 2, etc. HTH Martin -----Original Message----- From: Matt Grimm [mailto:mgrimm@healthtvchannel.org] Sent: Wednesday, 9 July 2003 10:38 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Object assignment I'm having trouble creating objects with DOMXML. As I loop through a level of nodes, I'm creating a new element based on the array's key name. The XML might look like this: <rootElement> <record id="1">Value 1</record> <record id="2">Value 2</record> </rootElement> So I'd be doing this with DOMXML in a loop: $thisChild = $doc->create_element($key); $thisChild = $ancestor->append_child($thisChild); Where $key is 'record' in this example, and $ancestor is 'rootElement', which is carried along in the function. The problem that when I reach the second element by the same name, and in the same node level, I'm overwriting the $thisChild object that I just created. How can I dynamically name these objects so that I can have an indeterminate number of elements by the same name, in the same level?
