Here is my XML. I need to print with tags.
$XMLData = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GetItemRequest xmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents">
<RequesterCredentials>
<eBayAuthToken>ABC</eBayAuthToken>
</RequesterCredentials>
<ItemID>123456</ItemID>
<DetailLevel>ReturnAll</DetailLevel>';
$XMLData .= '<IncludeItemSpecifics>True</IncludeItemSpecifics>
</GetItemRequest>';
echo $XMLData;
Thank you.
You can use this for show without html tag :
$XMLData = 'Your Html Code';
echo htmlentities($XMLData);
You can try this:
echo htmlentities($XMLData);
For line break Try:
echo nl2br(htmlentities($XMLData));

I try to add a single element/single tag without a closing tag to an XML structure with PHP Dom to get something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ndxml>
<credentials>
<identity>User</identity>
<password>Password</password>
<language name="default" modifier="de"/>
</credentials>
</ndxml>
Does anybody know which command I can use to get this?
$domDocument = new \DOMDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');
$rootNode = $domDocument->createElement('ndxml');
$credentials = $domDocument->createElement('credentials');
$credentials->appendChild(new \DOMElement('identity', 'User'));
$credentials->appendChild(new \DOMElement('password', 'Password'));
$language = $domDocument->createElement('language');
$language->setAttribute('name', 'default');
$language->setAttribute('modifier', 'de');
$credentials->appendChild($language);
$rootNode->appendChild($credentials);
$domDocument->appendChild($rootNode);
echo $domDocument->saveXML();
echo "\n\n";
echo $domDocument->saveXML(null, LIBXML_NOEMPTYTAG);
OUTPUT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ndxml><credentials><identity>User</identity><password>Password</password><language name="default" modifier="de"/></credentials></ndxml>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ndxml><credentials><identity>User</identity><password>Password</password><language name="default" modifier="de"></language></credentials></ndxml>
According to this answer it is possible to echo out formatted xml. Yet this php code:
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><data></data>");
$xml->addChild("child1", "value1");
$xml->addChild("child2", "value2");
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->loadXML($xml->asXML());
echo $dom->saveXML();
outputs value1 value2
So how do I format it correctly nowadays?
To echo out formatted XML (or HTML) you have to use htmlentities built-in function, that “convert all applicable characters to HTML entities”.
In your case:
echo htmlentities($dom->saveXML());
will output this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <data> <child1>value1</child1> <child2>value2</child2> </data>
Using-it together with <pre> html tag, also newlines and spaces will be printed:
echo '<pre>' . htmlentities($dom->saveXML()) . '</pre>';
will output this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<data>
<child1>value1</child1>
<child2>value2</child2>
</data>
Not too sure what I'm doing wrong with parsing/reading an xml document.
My guess is that it's not standardized, and I'm going to need a different process to read anything from the string.
If that's the case, then I'm rather excited to learn how someone would read the xml.
Here's what I've got, and what I'm doing.
example.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="someurl.php"?>
<response>
<status>Error</status>
<error>The error message I need to extract, if the status says Error</error>
</response>
read_xml.php
<?php
$content = 'example.xml';
$string = file_get_contents($content);
$xml = simplexml_load_string($string);
print_r($xml);
?>
I'm getting no result back from the print_r.
I switched the xml to something more standard, like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<note>
<to>Tove</to>
<from>Jani</from>
<heading>Reminder</heading>
<body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
</note>
...and it worked fine. So I'm sure it's due to a non-standard format, passed back from the source I'm getting it from.
How would I extract the <status> and <error> tags?
Tek has a good answer, but if you want to use SimpleXML, you can try something like this:
<?php
$xml = simplexml_load_file('example.xml');
echo $xml->asXML(); // this will print the whole string
echo $xml->status; // print status
echo $xml->error; // print error
?>
EDIT: If you have multiple <status> and <error> tags in your XML, have a look at this:
$xml = simplexml_load_file('example.xml');
foreach($xml->status as $status){
echo $status;
}
foreach($xml->error as $error){
echo $error;
}
I'm assuming <response> is your root. If it isn't, try $xml->response->status and $xml->response->error.
I prefer to use PHP's DOMDocument class better.
Try something like this:
<?php
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="someurl.php"?>
<response>
<status>Error</status>
<error>The error message I need to extract, if the status says Error</error>
</response>';
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->loadXML($xml);
$statuses = $dom->getElementsByTagName('status');
foreach ($statuses as $status) {
echo "The status tag says: " . $status->nodeValue, PHP_EOL;
}
?>

Escaping <? on php shorthand enabled server when using require
What I want is that when I make a Ajax get request to domain/xml.php. It return a XML file, so I can use httpRequest.responseXML to parse the XML file.
what I did is:
<?php
$name = 'Just a tester';
?>
<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<name><?php echo $name ?></name>
But the parser gives me an error of the line <?xml version='1.0' ?>, I thought it might be syntax conflict with the php delimiter <?php.
How can I request a url and get xml generated by php?
You have shorttags enabled. This is the default, and as of PHP 5.4, tags are supported everywhere, regardless of shorttags settings.
The problem is that <?xml version='1.0' ?> starts and ends with <? ?>, just like PHP with shorttags.
To get round this use:
echo "<?xml version='1.0' ?>";
on that line.
Why are you trying to embed PHP variables into XML instead of generating the XML with PHP?
Example (xml.php):
<?php
header('Content-type: text/xml; charset=utf-8');
//Your Data
$persons = array(array('name'=>'bob','age'=>20,'sex'=>'M'),
array('name'=>'steve','age'=>26,'sex'=>'M'),
array('name'=>'jen','age'=>33,'sex'=>'F'),
);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><persons/>');
foreach ($persons as $person) {
$node = $xml->addChild('person');
foreach($person as $key=>$value){
$node->addChild($key, $value);
}
}
//DOMDocument to format code output
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->loadXML($xml->asXML());
echo $dom->saveXML();
/* OUTPUT
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persons>
<person>
<name>bob</name>
<age>20</age>
<sex>M</sex>
</person>
<person>
<name>steve</name>
<age>26</age>
<sex>M</sex>
</person>
<person>
<name>jen</name>
<age>33</age>
<sex>F</sex>
</person>
</persons>
*/
?>
You could try:
<?php
header('Content-type: text/xml; charset=utf-8');
$name = 'Just a tester';
echo "<?xml version='1.0' ?>";
?>
<name><?php echo $name; ?></name>
Change
echo "<?xml...?>";
to
echo '<'."?...?".'>';
Or use Lawerence solution
You should set up your webserver to process not only PHP but XML files also through the PHP preprocessor.
You have short tags enabled. These should be disabled in your php.ini, search for "short_open_tag" and "asp_tag".
If you have an earlier version than PHP 5.3.0 this will probably work (if you only want this for the current document):
<?php ini_set('short_open_tag', 0); ?>
i haven't really worked with xml files before, but now i'm trying to get an xml file into a php array or object.
the xml file looks like this: (it's for translating a web app)
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<content language="de">
<string name="login">Login</string>
<string name="username">Benutzername</string>
<string name="password">Passwort</string>
</content>
i tried the following:
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement("de.xml", 0, 1);
print_r($xml);
unfortunately, the values of the 'name' attribute are for some reason not in the php object. i'm looking for a way that allows me to retrieve the xml values by the name attribute.
for instance:
$xml['username'] //returns "Benutzername"
how can this be done?
appreciate your help :) cheers!
This one should explain the function to you:
<?php
$xml = simplexml_load_file('de.xml');
foreach($xml->string as $string) {
echo 'attributes: '. $string->attributes() .'<br />';
}
?>
The attributes() method from SimpleXMLElement class will help you - http://de.php.net/manual/en/simplexmlelement.attributes.php
$xmlStr = <<<XML
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<content language="de">
<string name="login">Login</string>
<string name="username">Benutzername</string>
<string name="password">Passwort</string>
</content>
XML;
$doc = new DomDocument();
$doc->loadXML($xmlStr);
$strings = $doc->getElementsByTagName('string');
foreach ($strings as $node) {
echo $node->getAttribute('name') . ' = ' . $node->nodeValue . PHP_EOL;
}
You can use an xpath expression to get the element with the name you are looking for:
(string)current($xml->xpath('/content/string[#name="username"]'))
