Here is my modification of < dmeekins att gmail doot com > XMLParser class, as i have used it for quite a bit. There were 2 problems with his post, which of course was a modification of an earlier post, so the problem continued through the many versions. The problems were in the dataHandler function. The first problem was with '$data = trim($data);' which removed line breakers from data which went over many lines and the second problem was when a tag had a value 0. So here is the corrected function. <?php function dataHandler($parser, $data) { if(!empty($data) || strval($data) != "" ) { if(isset($this->currTag['data'])) $this->currTag['data'] .= $data; else $this->currTag['data'] = $data; } } ?> By removing '$data = trim($data);', you will notice that some [data] elements, mainly the root ones, will have alot of line breakers in them with no actual data. The code by < geoffers [at] gmail [dot] com > was also quite good as it keeps things alot smaller than XMLParser and here's my modification of part of his code, as i preferred to have it look similar to how XMLParser has it (removes the ['child'] entry and changes 'attribs' to 'attr'). <?php function parse($data) { $this->parser = xml_parser_create('UTF-8'); xml_set_object($this->parser, $this); xml_parser_set_option($this->parser, XML_OPTION_SKIP_WHITE, 1); xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, 'tag_open', 'tag_close'); xml_set_character_data_handler($this->parser, 'cdata'); if (!xml_parse($this->parser, $data)) { $this->data = array(); $this->error_code = xml_get_error_code($this->parser); $this->error_string = xml_error_string($this->error_code); $this->current_line = xml_get_current_line_number($this->parser); $this->current_column = xml_get_current_column_number($this->parser); } else { $this->data = $this->data; } xml_parser_free($this->parser); } function tag_open($parser, $tag, $attribs) { $this->data[$tag][] = array('data' => '', 'attr' => $attribs); $this->datas[] =& $this->data; $this->data =& $this->data[$tag][count($this->data[$tag])-1]; } ?> The code by < adamaflynn at criticaldevelopment dot net > and < geoff at spacevs dot com > are also quite good but use xmlObject object rather than standard arrays. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 213.42.2.22 (proxied: 217.164.179.254) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/79397 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79397 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/79397 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
