note 98736 added to book.dom

Thanks to sweisman at pobox dot com. I modified his function to convert a DOM into an array structure, which works better for me: function dom_to_array($root, $full_view=FALSE) { $result = array(); // process attributes if ($root->hasAttributes()) { $attrs = $root->attributes; foreach ($attrs as $i => $attr) { $result['@attributes'][$attr->name] = $attr->value; } } //process child nodes $children = $root->childNodes; for($i = 0; $i < $children->length; $i++) { $child = $children->item($i); if ($child->nodeType == XML_TEXT_NODE) { $result['#text'][] = $child->nodeValue; } else { $result[$child->nodeName][] = dom_to_array($child); } } // direct assignment of text nodes if ( TRUE and count($result) == 1 and isset($result['#text']) and count($result['#text']) == 1 ) { $result = $result['#text'][0]; } // reduce array to am more minimalistic structure if (is_array($result) and !$full_view) { foreach ( $result as $key => $value ) { if ( count($result[$key]) == 1 ) { $result[$key] = $result[$key][0]; } } } return $result; } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 92.197.134.14 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.dom.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98736 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98736 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98736 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
