I wanted to find similar Elements - thats why I built an Xpath-String like this - maybe somebody needs it... its not very pretty - but neither is domdocument :)





<?php





$dom->load($xmlFile))





$xpathQuery = '//*';


$xmlNodes = $xpath->query($xpathQuery);


        


$pathlist = array();


$attrlist = array();


foreach ($xmlNodes as $node) {





  $depth = $this->_getDomDepth($node);   //get Path-Depth (for array key)


  $pathlist[$depth] = $node->tagName;     // tagname


          


  $attrs = $node->attributes;


  $attr='';


  $a=0;


  foreach ($attrs as $attrName => $attrNode)  // attributes


            {


              if ($attrName !='reg')


              {


                if ($a++!=0) $attr .= ' and ';


                $attr .= '@'.$attrName.'='."'".$attrNode->value."'";


              }


            }


          


          $attrlist[$depth] = $attr?'['.$attr.']':'';


          


          $path = ''; for ($i=0;$i<=$depth;$i++) $path .= '/'.$pathlist[$i].$attrlist[$i];  // the xpath of the actual Element





    // ... now you can go on and user $path to find similar elements


    }


  }


}





 private function _getDomDepth(DomNode $node)


   {


     $r = -2;


     while ($node) {


       $r++;  


       $node = $node->parentNode;


     } 


     return  $r;


   }

Hi there.



Remember to append a DOMNode (or any of its descendants) to a DOMDocument __BEFORE__ you try to append a child to it.



I don't know why it has to be this way but it can't be done without it.



bye
