Classes
to work with XML database from PHP are available. You can use these
to work with an XML database like Xindice. The class that is used is
available in class_xindice.php in the phpxmlclasses.sourceforge.net
website. You have to instantiate the class once and then you can use
the RPC's of that object to work with the XML database.
_______________________________________________
There are
many methods available for this purpose. You can use the Xindice constructor
to instantiate the class. The createCollection method is used to create
a collection for XML documents and listCollections is used to list the
collections available in the XML database.
To find
out the number of documents present in a collection you can use getDocumentCount
method. Drop collections using dropCollection. To insert a new document
in a collection you can use insertDocument and to update a document
use setDocument.
To get
the list of the documents available in a collection you can use listDocuments
method and use removeDocument to remove a document from a collection.
You can
find all the methods available in PHP to work with an XML database in
the sourceforge.net website. With these methods you can create any application
that uses PHP and XML database.
