DOM XML 函数

Deprecated functions

There are quite a few functions that do not fit into the DOM standard and should no longer be used. These functions are listed in the following table. The function DomNode_append_child() has changed its behaviour. It now adds a child and not a sibling. If this breaks your application, use the non-DOM function DomNode_append_sibling().

**Deprecated functions and their replacements**
Old function	New function
xmldoc	domxml_open_mem()
xmldocfile	domxml_open_file()
domxml_new_xmldoc	domxml_new_doc()
domxml_dump_mem	DomDocument_dump_mem()
domxml_dump_mem_file	DomDocument_dump_file()
DomDocument_dump_mem_file	DomDocument_dump_file()
DomDocument_add_root	DomDocument_create_element() followed by DomNode_append_child()
DomDocument_dtd	DomDocument_doctype()
DomDocument_root	DomDocument_document_element()
DomDocument_children	DomNode_child_nodes()
DomDocument_imported_node	No replacement.
DomNode_add_child	Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_element() and add it with DomNode_append_child().
DomNode_children	DomNode_child_nodes()
DomNode_parent	DomNode_parent_node()
DomNode_new_child	Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_element() and add it with DomNode_append_child().
DomNode_set_content	Create a new node with e.g. DomDocument_create_text_node() and add it with DomNode_append_child().
DomNode_get_content	Content is just a text node and can be accessed with DomNode_child_nodes().
DomNode_set_content	Content is just a text node and can be added with DomNode_append_child().

Classes

The API of the module follows the DOM Level 2 standard as closely as possible. Consequently, the API is fully object-oriented. It is a good idea to have the DOM standard available when using this module. Though the API is object-oriented, there are many functions which can be called in a non-object-oriented way by passing the object to operate on as the first argument. These functions are mainly to retain compatibility to older versions of the extension, and should not be used when creating new scripts.

This API differs from the official DOM API in two ways. First, all class attributes are implemented as functions with the same name. Secondly, the function names follow the PHP naming convention. This means that a DOM function lastChild() will be written as last_child().

This module defines a number of classes, which are listed - including their method - in the following tables. Classes with an equivalent in the DOM standard are named DOMxxx.

Many examples in this reference require an XML string. Instead of repeating this string in every example, it will be put into a file which will be included by each example. This include file is shown in the following example section. Alternatively, you could create an XML document and read it with DomDocument_open_file().

Example #1 Include file example.inc with XML string
