note 60122 added to ref.xml

i've been looking for some code wich makes me a well usable array, from "any" xml. but though here are extremely good implementations of parsers i havnt found it, so i made up a class wich makes an easy useable array. probably not rockstable but well formed xml worx (well it should) <?php ini_set("display_errors","1"); class q{ //builds ARRAY from XML function xmltoarray($xml) { $p = xml_parser_create(); //he does the real work //eventually parser could be created on construct xml_parse_into_struct($p, $xml, $vals); xml_parser_free($p); $erg=array(); $pos=0; $newcdata=array(); //print_r($vals); return $this->valtoar($vals,$pos,$newcdata); } //builds ARRAY from VALS recived from parser function valtoar(&$val,&$pos,&$cdata) { $erg=array(); //result while($val[$pos]['type']!="close") //if we came 2 close!!!LOL!!! end*/ { if($val[$pos]['type']=="open"){ //an open occured $tag=$val[$pos]['tag']; //get the tag if(!isset($erg[$tag])) //build the array if not yet used, wouldnt be neccessarry $erg[$tag]=array(); $tagi = count($erg[$tag]); //get the last pos +1 if(isset($val[$pos]['attributes'])) //add attributes $erg[$tag][$tagi]['attributes']=$val[$pos]['attributes']; else $erg[$tag][$tagi]['attributes']=array(); $newcdata=array(); if(isset($val[$pos]['value'])) //add value $newcdata[]=$val[$pos]['value']; $pos++; // next pos // get all ellements $erg[$tag][$tagi]['elements']=$this->valtoar($val,$pos,$newcdata); $erg[$tag][$tagi]['values']=$newcdata; //all cdata found is set to [tag][#][values][#]=>string if($val[$pos]['level']!=1) //there is only one level 1 and it must take our cancel contition $pos++; } elseif($val[$pos]['type']=="cdata"){ //handle the cdata to be referencial returned in open tag $valuesi = count($cdata); $cdata[$valuesi]=$val[$pos]['value']; $pos++; } elseif($val[$pos]['type']=="complete"){ //complete tags are add $tag=$val[$pos]['tag']; if(!isset($erg[$tag])) // add the tag $erg[$tag]=array(); $tagi = count($erg[$tag]); if(isset($val[$pos]['attributes'])) //add the attributes $erg[$tag][$tagi]['attributes']=$val[$pos]['attributes']; else $erg[$tag][$tagi]['attributes']=array(); if(isset($val[$pos]['value'])) $erg[$tag][$tagi]['values']=array($val[$pos]['value']); else $erg[$tag][$tagi]['values']=array(); $erg[$tag][$tagi]['elements']=array(); $pos++; } } return $erg; } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+60122 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60122&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+60122&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
