You can
work with xml in any language and php is one among them. If you are
familiar with the DOM, you can work the DOM itself using php. The steps
to work with xml in php too are the same as you would do in other languages.
_______________________________________________
You have
to create a new DOM document and then load the xml file you are going
to work with into it. Then you will be using the functions available
to navigate through the xml document to get the elements and their values
and then print it out on the screen.
The command
new DOMDocument(); is used to create a new document object and the command
load('xmlfile.xml'); to load the xml file you need.
You can
use getElementsByTagName("element_name") to get all the elements
with that tag and store them in an array and then use that particular
array's item(n)->nodeValue to get the value of a particular node.
You can loop through the node using a 'for' loop and print the values
of each node.
The PHP
installations include a SAX parser. You can use this parser to parse
the xml files. It is another way to work with the xml file.
