xml 是一种创建元数据的语言,元数据是描述其它数据的数据,PHP中的XML处理是基于LIBXML2的,安装时默认开启。
可以通过phpinfo()函数查看是否开启了XML处理模块,DOM,LIBXML,SAMPLEXML。
首先,通过samplexml_load_file函数把xml文件加载到一个对象中,samplexml_load_file可以用户远程文件。
例如:
$xml = samplexml_load_file("messages.xml"); // 本地文件系统,当前目录
$xml = samplexml_load_file("http://www.xml.org.cn/messages.xml"); // 远程web服务器
用 var_dump($xml) 和 print_r($xml) 分别输出其结构.var_dump给出了变量的类型和长度,而print_r可读性更强输出对象中的所有元素名称和它的值。
echo $xml->MessageTitle; //输出消息的标题
echo $xml->MessageBody; // 输出消息体
echo $xml->MessageAuthor; //消息的作者
echo $xml->MessageDate; // 消息产生的日期
echo $xml->MessageNumber; // 消息代码
===================================================
另外,还有一个函数,可以把XML字符串加载到一个simplexml对象中取。
$channel =<<<_XML_
<channel>
<title>What''s For Dinner</title>
<link>http://menu.example.com/</link>
<description>These are your choices of what to eat tonight. </description>
</channel>
_XML_;
$xml = simplexml_load_string($channel);
===================================================
rss.xml
=============================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="0.91">
<channel>
<title>What''s For Dinner</title>
<link>http://menu.example.com/</link>
<description>These are your choices of what to eat tonight.</description>
