I am trying to create an xml dynamically using domDocument.
What I would like to obtain is following:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<books>
<book>
<content>
<name><![CDATA[dddd]]></name>
</content>
</book>
</books>
Unfortunatelly the script below does not show the output as excepted.
$xml = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$xml->formatOutput = true;
$books = $xml->createElement('books');
$xml->appendChild($books);
$book = $xml->createElement('book');
$books->appendChild($book);
$inside = $xml->createElement('content');
$book->appendChild($inside);
$xml->appendChild($inside)->appendChild($xml->createElement('name'))->appendChild($xml->createCDataSection('dddd'));
echo '<xmp>'.$xml->saveXML().'</xmp>';
This is the output
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<books>
<book>
<content>
<name><![CDATA[dddd]]></name>
<lastname><![CDATA[dddd]]></lastname>
....
</content>
I do not know how to use createCDataSection().
Like this?
$xml = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$xml->formatOutput = true;
$books = $xml->createElement('books');
$xml->appendChild($books);
$book = $xml->createElement('book');
$books->appendChild($book);
$content = $xml->createElement('content');
$book->appendChild($content);
$name = $xml->createElement('name');
$content->appendChild($name);
$name->appendChild($xml->createCDataSection('dddd'));
echo '<xmp>'.$xml->saveXML().'</xmp>';

Considering this XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Assertion xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion http://docs.oasis-open.org/security/saml/v2.0/saml-schema-assertion-2.0.xsd" ID="_a75adf55-01d7-40cc-929f-dbd8372ebdfc" IssueInstant="2009-09-09T00:46:02Z" Version="2.0">
<Subject>
<NameID>801234567890</NameID>
</Subject>
....
</Assertion>
PHP
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$ret = $dom->loadXML($data);
$xp = new DOMXPath($dom);
$node_list = $xp->query('/Assertion');
$node_list->length return 0 element. I want to extract the DOMElement but somehow it didn't work.
As stated on the comments by Sami Kuhmonen you may need to register the namespaces, here is an example:
<?php
$string= <<<XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Assertion xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion http://docs.oasis-open.org/security/saml/v2.0/saml-schema-assertion-2.0.xsd" ID="_a75adf55-01d7-40cc-929f-dbd8372ebdfc" IssueInstant="2009-09-09T00:46:02Z" Version="2.0">
<Subject>
<NameID>801234567890</NameID>
</Subject>
</Assertion>
XML;
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->loadXML($string);
$xp = new DOMXPath($dom);
// registering the namespaces
$xp->registerNamespace('a','urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion');
$xp->registerNamespace('b','http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance');
// using the prefix of the registered namespace in the xpath expression
$node_list = $xp->query('/a:Assertion');
print $node_list->length
?>
I'm using SimpleXMLElement for create datafeed page: Here the code:
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement("<Products />");
foreach ($products as $pro) {
$track = $xml -> addChild('Product');
$track -> addChild('simple_sku', "<![CDATA[ ABC ]]>");
}
Header('Content-type: text/xml');
print($xml -> asXML());
and the output:
<Products>
<Product>
<simple_sku><![CDATA[ ABC ]]></simple_sku>
</Product>
</Products>
I want to know how to turn output into format like this:
<Products>
<Product>
<simple_sku>
<![CDATA[ ABC ]]>
</simple_sku>
</Product>
<Products>
Thanks you a lot.
It's not possible with SimpleXML so I advice you to use DOMDocument.
Usage example:
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->loadXML($simpleXml->asXML());
I'm trying to add a childnode in an XML document with PHP and got it OK so far except one thing. Can't get it formatted correct?
Here is the script:
$xmldoc = new DOMDocument();
$xml->formatOutput = true;
$xml->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$xmldoc->loadXML('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
</data>');
echo "<xmp>OLD:\n". $xmldoc->saveXML() ."</xmp>";
$root = $xmldoc->firstChild;
$newElement = $xmldoc->createElement('popup');
$root->appendChild($newElement);
$newText = $xmldoc->createTextNode("0");
$newElement->appendChild($newText);
echo "<xmp>NEW:\n". $xmldoc->saveXML() ."</xmp>";
After adding the node I get this:
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
<popup>0</popup></data>
I want it to be like this:
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
<popup>0</popup>
</data>
Where do I go wrong?
Please help and thanks in advance :-)
createElement will break formatOutput this is a general issue
See PHP BUG Report
formatOutput does not work with saveHTML
DOMDocument->formatOutput = true does not work
But you can have a work around by reloading and formatting it.
$xmldoc = new DOMDocument();
$xmldoc->loadXML('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
</data>');
echo "<xmp>OLD:\n". $xmldoc->saveXML() ."</xmp>";
$root = $xmldoc->firstChild;
$newElement = $xmldoc->createElement('popup');
$root->appendChild($newElement);
$newText = $xmldoc->createTextNode("0");
$newElement->appendChild($newText);
$xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$xml->formatOutput = true;
$xml->loadXML( $xmldoc->saveXML());
echo "<xmp>NEW:\n". $xml->saveXML()."</xmp>";
Output
OLD:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
</data>
NEW:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<data>
<udate>1347730639</udate>
<userid>3</userid>
<popup>0</popup>
</data>
You might want to try removing all whitespace before and then formatting.
force it to remake the xml from scratch.
$xml->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$xml->formatOutput = true;
I have an xml file
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<category>
<name>SWEATERS</name>
<name>WATCHES</name>
<name>PANTS</name>
<name>test</name>
<name>1</name>
</category>
How i can remove the node <name>test</name> using xpath ,xquery and php. I used this code
$name='test;
$xmlfile="config/shop_categories.xml";
$xml = simplexml_load_file($xmlfile);
$target = $xml->xpath('/category[name="'.trim($name).'"]');
print_r($target[0]);
if($target == false)
return;
$domRef = dom_import_simplexml($target[0]); //Select position 0 in XPath array
$domRef->parentNode->removeChild($domRef);
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->loadXML($xml->asXML());
$dom->save($xmlfile);
But it is not working.
Pretty sure this is a duplicate, but am too lazy to find it. Here you go:
$xml = <<< XML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<category>
<name>SWEATERS</name>
<name>WATCHES</name>
<name>PANTS</name>
<name>test</name>
<name>1</name>
</category>
XML;
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadXML($xml);
$xPath = new DOMXPath($dom);
foreach($xPath->query('//name[text() = "test"]') as $node) {
$node->parentNode->removeChild($node);
}
echo $dom->saveXML();
Output:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<category>
<name>SWEATERS</name>
<name>WATCHES</name>
<name>PANTS</name>
<name>1</name>
</category>
Ho to make this "simple" xml with php using DOM? Full code will be welcomed.
<rss version="2.0"
xmlns:wp="http://url.com"
xmlns:dc="http://url2.com"
>
<channel>
<items>
<sometags></sometags>
<wp:status></wp:status>
</items>
</channel>
</rss>
i'm so lost. Code will help me more than any explanation.
Here is the code:
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
$rss = $dom->createElement('rss');
$dom->appendChild($rss);
$version = $dom->createAttribute('version');
$rss->appendChild($version);
$value = $dom->createTextNode('2.0');
$version->appendChild($value);
$xmlns_wp = $dom->createAttribute('xmlns:wp');
$rss->appendChild($xmlns_wp);
$value = $dom->createTextNode('http://url.com');
$xmlns_wp->appendChild($value);
$xmlns_dc = $dom->createAttribute('xmlns:dc');
$rss->appendChild($xmlns_dc);
$value = $dom->createTextNode('http://url2.com');
$xmlns_dc->appendChild($value);
$channel = $dom->createElement('channel');
$rss->appendChild($channel);
$items = $dom->createElement('items');
$channel->appendChild($items);
$sometags = $dom->createElement('sometags', '');
$items->appendChild($sometags);
$wp_status = $dom->createElement('wp:status', '');
$items->appendChild($wp_status);
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>
It outputs:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss
version="2.0"
xmlns:wp="http://url.com"
xmlns:dc="http://url2.com"
>
<channel>
<items>
<sometags></sometags>
<wp:status></wp:status>
</items>
</channel>
</rss>
Fore more help: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/book.dom.php
If you want "simple" then use SimpleXML, not DOM. Note that SimpleXML won't indent the XML.
$rss = simplexml_load_string('<rss version="2.0" xmlns:wp="http://url.com" xmlns:dc="http://url2.com" />');
$channel = $rss->addChild('channel');
$items = $channel->addChild('items');
$sometags = $items->addChild('sometags');
$status = $items->addChild('status', null, 'http://url.com');
echo $rss->asXML();
