note 125175 added to domdocument.getelementbyid

To set a hidden id that can be used by $dom->getElementById() apply setAttribute('id', true) as in the following example $createItemNode = function ($data) use ($dom) { $node = $dom->createElement("Item"); $node->setAttribute('id', $data->id); $node->setAttribute('hed', $data->hed); $node->setAttribute('run_time', $data->run_time); $node->setAttribute('date', $data->date); // Internally mark the id as 'xml:id' for getElementById to work. Adding xml:id manually to the tag will cause loadXML to throw an error DOMDocument: xml:id is not a NCName in Entity $node->setIdAttribute('id', true); return $node; }; With $node->setIdAttribute('id', true), $dom->getElementById($id) will work When you do $dom->saveXML(), the final doc will not contain any xml:id attribute. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 103.51.166.36 (proxied: 148.75.17.47) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/domdocument.getelementbyid.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/125175 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125175 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/125175 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
