FW: [PHP] Re: Building an XML Parser Class

Thanks for the link. Sadly it doesn't really apply to what I am trying to do. My class literally translates the Xml Document into an associative array. PHP's functionality for working with XML documents is way too limited for me to do what I need to while still keeping my code legible. That's why I am changing it into an array first. As I said, the code works perfect. All I need to do is to be able to call a method of the parent of the Xml Parser. I presume the Xml Parser is an object even though it is created with $MyXmlParser = xml_parser_create(); Instead of say: $MyXmlParser = new XmlParser; -----Original Message----- From: Greg Beaver [mailto:greg@chiaraquartet.net] Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 5:01 PM To: Donald Tyler Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Re: Building an XML Parser Class http://pear.php.net/XML_Parser :) Greg -- phpDocumentor http://www.phpdoc.org Donald Tyler wrote: > Hi, > > I am trying to create a Class that will parse an XML document.
