XML Manipulation
After searching how to extend the DOMDocument and DOMElement I found a way in the bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35104. The following code shows how:
<?php
class extDOMDocument extends DOMDocument {
public function createElement($name, $value=null) {
$orphan = new extDOMElement($name, $value); // new sub-class object
$docFragment = $this->createDocumentFragment(); // lightweight container maintains "ownerDocument"
$docFragment->appendChild($orphan); // attach
$ret = $docFragment->removeChild($orphan); // remove
return $ret; // ownerDocument set; won't be destroyed on method exit
}
// .. more class definition
}
class extDOMElement extends DOMElement {
function __construct($name, $value='', $namespaceURI=null) {
parent::__construct($name, $value, $namespaceURI);
}
// ... more class definition here
}
$doc = new extDOMDocument('test');
$el = $doc->createElement('tagname');
$el->setAttribute("attr", "val");
$doc->appendChild($el);
// append discards the DOMDocumentFragment and just adds its child nodes, but ownerDocument is maintained.
echo get_class($el)."<br/>";
echo get_class($doc->documentElement)."<br/>";
echo "<xmp>".$doc->saveXML()."</xmp>";
?>

If you need simple interface to DOM check out phpQuery - jQuery port to PHP:
http://code.google.com/p/phpquery/
It uses CSS selectors to fetch nodes.
Here's example how it works:
<?php
// just one file to include
require('phpQuery/phpQuery.php');
$html = '
<div>
mydiv
<ul>
<li>1</li>
<li>2</li>
<li>3</li>
</ul>
</div>';
// intialize new DOM from markup
phpQuery::newDocument($markup)
->find('ul > li')
->addClass('my-new-class')
->filter(':last')
->addClass('last-li');
// query all unordered lists in last used DOM
pq('ul')->insertAfter('div');
// iterate all LIs from last used DOM
foreach(pq('li') as $li) {
// iteration returns plain DOM nodes, not phpQuery objects
pq($li)->addClass('my-second-new-class');
}
// same as pq('anything')->htmlOuter()
// but on document root (returns doctype etc)
print phpQuery::getDocument();
?>
It uses DOM extension and XPath so it works only in PHP5.

I needed a function that quickly converts an xml with key/value pairs to an array.
for example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<key id="Array key #1" value="Value #1"/>
<key id="Array key #2" value="Value #2"/>
<key id="Dupe" value="Duplicate keys"/>
<key id="Dupe" value="create numeric arrays"/>
<key id="And another key">
<![CDATA[
Multiline
data
works
just
as
well.
]]>
</key>
<nested>
<key id="Nested key" value="Nested data works as well, but it still results in a 1 dimensional array."/>
</nested>
</test>
Results in the following array:
array(5) {
["Array key #1"]=>
string(8) "Value #1"
["Array key #2"]=>
string(8) "Value #2"
["Dupe"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(14) "Duplicate keys"
[1]=>
string(21) "create numeric arrays"
}
["And another key"]=>
string(49) "Multiline
data
works
just
as
well."
["Nested key"]=>
string(73) "Nested data works as well, but it still results in a 1 dimensional array."
}
Here's the code:
<?php
function xml2array($xml) {
$domDocument = new DOMDocument;
$domDocument->loadXML($xml);
$domXPath = new DOMXPath($domDocument);
$array = array();
foreach ($domXPath->query('//key') as $keyDOM) {
$id = $keyDOM->getAttribute('id');
$value = $keyDOM->hasAttribute('value') ? $keyDOM->getAttribute('value') : trim($keyDOM->textContent);
if (array_key_exists($id, $array)) {
if (is_array($array[$id])) {
$array[$id][] = $value;
} else {
$array[$id] = array($array[$id]);
$array[$id][] = $value;
}
} else {
$array[$id] = $value;
}
}
return $array;
}
?>

In response to...
"If you create your own custom element extending DOMElement and append him in place of the document element, you cannot access to any new members newly defined in your custom class via DOMDocument::$documentElement."
... it is not a bug, it is a feature. The DOMDocument::$documentElement property name may be misleading but according to the DOM Level 2 Core specification it is a convenience attribute meant to access the root element of your DOMDocument. See here: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/core.html#i-Document

I use DOM to generate dynamically XHTML document.
When trying to extend the DOMDocument and DOMElement classes, I found a very annoying bug concerning DOMDocument::$documentElement.
If you create your own custom element extending DOMElement and append him in place of the document element, you cannot access to any new members newly defined in your custom class via DOMDocument::$documentElement.
In my situation, I cannot use DOMDocument::registerNodeClass() because the document element is not necessarily the base class for all the elements in my document.
*******
problem
*******
See bellow for the repro step:
<?php
class MyElement extends DOMElement{
public $myProp="myProp";
public function myMethod(){
return 'myMethod()';
}
}
$myDocument=new DOMDocument();
$myDocument->appendChild(new MyElement('myElement','myElement'));
echo ('$myElement->myProp :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myProp.'<br />');
echo ('$myElement->myMethod :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myMethod().'<br />');
?>
will output:
Notice: Undefined property: DOMElement::$myProp in C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 2.0b1\www\testDOMBug\test2.php on line 11
$myElement->myProp :
Fatal error: Call to undefined method DOMElement::myMethod() in C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 2.0b1\www\testDOMBug\test2.php on line 12
*******
solution
*******
After searching around, I found a pretty odd way to fix this problem. It seems that you have to stock a reference to your appended document element in an user-defined (and persistent) variable (in other words, not only in DOMDocument::$documentElement). See below:
<?php
class MyElement extends DOMElement{
public $myProp="myProp";
public function myMethod(){
return 'myMethod()';
}
}
$myDocument=new DOMDocument();
$mydocumentElement=$myDocument->appendChild(new MyElement('myElement','myElement')); //here is the hack
echo ('$myElement->myProp :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myProp.'<br />');
echo ('$myElement->myMethod :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myMethod().'<br />');
?>
will output:
$myElement->myProp :myProp
$myElement->myMethod :myMethod()
Hope it will help.

I developed a group of functions that make it very easy to extract any information you want from any page you load from the internet. All based on the DOMDocument object.
You can read the entire documentation and download the source code here:

The following can take a XML_TEXT_NODE node and return the contents in an array. Yanick's contribution rocks - but
it overwrote with duplicates only keeping the last line
in the returned array. All the other functions i tested from various sources failed to handle text nodes correctly. Hope this helps someone. It is adapted from code on this site.
function myTextNode($n, &$a)
{
static $depth = 0;
static $sz = '';
if ($cn = $n->firstChild)
{
while ($cn)
{
if ($cn->nodeType == XML_TEXT_NODE)
{
$sz .= $cn->nodeValue;
}
elseif ($cn->nodeType == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
$b = 1;
if ($cn->hasChildNodes())
{
$depth++;
if ($this->myHeadings($cn, $a))
{
if ($sz){
array_push($a, $sz);
$sz = '';
}
}
$depth--;
}
}
$cn = $cn->nextSibling;
}
return $b;
}
}
so you could use:
$nodes = $dom->getElementsByTagName("td");
if($nodes){
foreach ($nodes as $node){
$a = Array();
myTextNode($node, $a);
}
}

In response to TrollBoy:
You might want to look a little harder before you go and write new code, someone posted a function that does exactly what your class does about a week before you. Also their function allows you to seed the document with a root so it could technically work for HTML documents as well.

Array to DOM
Here is a recursive function to turn a multidimensional array into an XML document. It will handle multiple elements of the same tag, but only one per parent element. IE:
Can't generate: Can generate:
<root> <root>
<sub1>data1</sub1> <subs1>
<sub1>data2</sub1> <value>data1</value>
<sub2>data1</sub2> <value>data2</value>
<sub2>data2</sub2> </subs1>
</root> <subs2>
<value>data1</value>
<value>data2</value>
<subs2>
</root>
Also, the function performs no type of error checking on your array and will throw a DOMException if a key value you used in your array contains invalid characters for a proper DOM tag. This function is untested for "deep" multidimensional arrays.
Complete code ready to run with example:
<?PHP
function AtoX($array, $DOM=null, $root=null){
if($DOM == null){$DOM = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');}
if($root == null){$root = $DOM->appendChild($DOM->createElement('root'));}
$name = $array['#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME'];
foreach($array as $key => $value){
if(is_int($key) && $name != null){
if(is_array($value)){
$subroot = $root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($name));
AtoX($value, $DOM, $subroot);
}
else if(is_scalar($value)){
$root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($name, $value));
}
}
else if(is_string($key) && $key != '#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME'){
if(is_array($value)){
$subroot = $root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($key));
AtoX($value, $DOM, $subroot);
}
else if(is_scalar($value)){
$root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($key, $value));
}
}
}
return $DOM;
}
$array = array(
'#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME' => 'GenericDatas',
'Date' => 'November 03, 2007',
'Company' => 'Facility One',
'Field' => 'Facility Management Software',
'Employees' => array(
'#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME' => 'Employee',
'Cindy',
'Sean',
'Joe',
'Owen',
'Jim',
'Dale',
'Kelly',
'Ryan',

In order to REALLY well handle XHTML entities with DOM, you can do following things:
1. Add this DOCTYPE to your documents
<!DOCTYPE xhtmlentities PUBLIC "-//W3C//ENTITIES XHTML Character Entities 1.0//EN" "/xhtml11.ent">
2. Copy http://freyjkell.ovh.org/xhtml11.ent into your document root.
3. In your PHP:
<?php
$dom=new DOMDocument();

The Yanik's dom2array() function (added on 14-Mar-2007 08:40) does not handle multiple nodes with the same name, i.e.:
<foo>
<name>aa</name>
<name>bb</name>
</foo>
It will overwrite former and your array will contain just the last one ("bb")

In response to lutfi at smartconsultant dot us :
(see my post on
http://fr2.php.net/manual/en/
function.dom-domdocument-getelementsbytagname.php
)
Use this class I wrote:
class XPathableNode extends DOMNode
{
protected $Node;
protected $DOMDocument_from_node;
protected $DOMXpath_for_node;
public function __construct(/* DOMNode */ $node)
{
$this->Node=$node;
$this->DOMDocument_from_node=new
DomDocument();
$domNode=$this->DOMDocument_from_node
->importNode($this->Node, true);
$this->DOMDocument_from_node
->appendChild($domNode);
$this->DomXpath_for_node =
new Domxpath($this->
DOMDocument_from_node);
}
public function convertHTML()
{ return $this->DOMDocument_from_node
->saveHTML();
}
public /*DomNodeList*/ function applyXpath($xpath)
{ return $this->DomXpath_for_node
->query($xpath);
}
}
(sorry for the display... What a terrible hinderance on the
part of php.net !)
Then :
Make a new XPathableNode out of your parent node.
You may then retrieve a DOMNodeList from it by applying a
xpath (thus being able to specify the depth and name of
elements you want).
Has got me around some (of the many) DOM awkwardnesses a few times.

Basicly there are alot of problems on dynamic namespaces registering and other maybe 'not well' documented parts of DOM.
Here is an article covering some of the problems that our company web developers found while we were developing a template engine for our new framework.

i have some problem parsing recurred xml tree here:
<menu name='parent1' >
<submenu name='file' >
<submenu name='open' >Open file</submenu>
<submenu name='close' >Close file</submenu>
</submenu>
<submenu name='edit' >
<submenu name='cut' >Cut Clipboards</submenu>
<submenu name='copy' >Copy Clipboards</submenu>
<submenu name='paste' >Paste Clipboards</submenu>
</submenu>
</menu>
with getElementsByTagName all submenu is on the same level.
i want it to be structured like tree list, but not change the 'submenu' tag

when you got variable nodes at start you array fails and looses nodes beneath.
solution that counts occurance though eats up performance:
function xmlToArray($n)
{
$xml_array = array();
$occurance = array();
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc)
{
$occurance[$nc->nodeName]++;
}
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc){
if( $nc->hasChildNodes() )
{
if($occurance[$nc->nodeName] > 1)
{
$xml_array[$nc->nodeName][] = xmlToArray($nc);
}
else
{
$xml_array[$nc->nodeName] = xmlToArray($nc);
}
}
else
{
return utf8_decode($nc->nodeValue);
}
}
return $xml_array;
}

I hate DOM model !
so I wrote dom2array simple function (simple for use):
function dom2array($node) {
$res = array();
print $node->nodeType.'<br/>';
if($node->nodeType == XML_TEXT_NODE){
$res = $node->nodeValue;
}
else{
if($node->hasAttributes()){
$attributes = $node->attributes;
if(!is_null($attributes)){
$res['@attributes'] = array();
foreach ($attributes as $index=>$attr) {
$res['@attributes'][$attr->name] = $attr->value;
}
}
}
if($node->hasChildNodes()){
$children = $node->childNodes;
for($i=0;$i<$children->length;$i++){
$child = $children->item($i);
$res[$child->nodeName] = dom2array($child);
}
}
}
return $res;
}

I wrote a couple of functions to:
- create a DOMDocument from a file
- parse the namespaces in it
- create a XPath object with all the namespaces registered
- load the schemalocations
- validate the file on the main schema (the one without prefix)
It is useful for me, see if it is also for someone else!!

I found the xml2array function below very useful, but there seems to be a bug in it. The $item variable was never getting set. I've expanded this out to be a bit more readable, and the corrected code is :
function xmlToArray($n)
{
$return=array();
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc){
if( $nc->hasChildNodes() ){
if( $n->firstChild->nodeName== $n->lastChild->nodeName&&$n->childNodes->length>1){
$item = $n->firstChild;
$return[$nc->nodeName][]=$this->xmlToArray($item);
}
else{
$return[$nc->nodeName]=$this->xmlToArray($nc);
}
}
else{
$return=$nc->nodeValue;
}
}
return $return;
}

If you are using not object-oriented functions and it takes too much time to change them all (or you'll be replacing them later) then as a temporary decision can be used this modules:
For DOM XML:

For XSLT:

Most email clients ignore stylesheets in HTML formatted emails. The best way to ensure your HTML is formatted correctly by a broad spectrum of email clients, including webmail implementations as Gmail, is to use inline style attributes. The following function uses DOM to parse an inline stylesheet, and will replace element class and id attributes with inline style attributes, and add inline style attributes for generic tag stylesheet rules. It will remove the stylesheet and any used class and id attributes as these are defunct for most email clients. It is a fairly lightweight function and does not support CSS inheritance, but will work for simple stylesheets e.g.:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML EMAIL</title>
<style type="text/css">
body {
margin: 10px 10px;
font: 8pt arial;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
}
p {
margin: 0 0 10px;
line-height: 1.2em;
text-align: justify;
}
p.centered {
text-align: centre;
}
p#right {
text-align: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Sample text justified</p>
<p class="centered">Centered text here</p>
<p id="right">Right-aligned text</p>
</body>
</html>
Here's the function:
<?php
function parseStyleSheetfor Email($html)
{
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->loadHTML($html);
// grab inline stylesheet as DOM object
$oStyle = $doc->getElementsByTagName('style')->item(0);
// grab rule identifiers and rules
preg_match_all('/^([-#._a-z0-9]+) ?\{(.*?)\}/ims', $oStyle->nodeValue, $aMatches, PREG_SET_ORDER);
foreach ($aMatches as $aRule) {
$rule_id = $aRule[1];
// clean up rules
$rule = str_replace(array("\r", "\n", ' ', '; '), array('', '', ' ', ';'), $aRule[2]);
$rule = preg_replace(array('/^ /', '/;$/'), '', $rule);
// generic rules
if (!strstr($rule_id, '.') && !strstr($rule_id, '#')) {
$items = $doc->getElementsByTagName($rule_id);
// set style attribute equal to rule from stylesheet
foreach ($items as $item) {
// if there is already inline style append it to end of stylesheet rule
$current_style = $item->getAttribute('style');
if (!empty($current_style)) {
$item->setAttribute('style', $rule . ';' . $current_style);
} else {
$item->setAttribute('style', $rule);
}
}
// classes
} elseif (strstr($rule_id, '.')) {
list($rule_tag, $rule_class) = explode('.', $rule_id);
$items = $doc->getElementsByTagName($rule_tag);
foreach ($items as $item) {
$class = $item->getAttribute('class');
if ($class == $rule_class) {
// if there is already inline style append it to end of stylesheet rule
$current_style = $item->getAttribute('style');
if (!empty($current_style)) {
$item->setAttribute('style', $current_style . ';' . $rule);
} else {
$item->setAttribute('style', $rule);
}
// remove class as it won't be used now
$item->removeAttribute('class');
}
}
// ids
} elseif (strstr($rule_id, '#')) {
list($rule_tag, $id) = explode('#', $rule_id);
$item = $doc->getElementById($id);
$current_style = $item->getAttribute('style');
if (!empty($current_style)) {
$item->setAttribute('style', $current_style . ';' . $rule);
} else {
$item->setAttribute('style', $rule);
}
// remove class as it won't be used now
$item->removeAttribute('id');
}
}
// remove inline stylesheet
$oStyle->parentNode->removeChild($oStyle);
return $doc->saveHTML();
