 Complex Associative Array to XML FIle and Back
Hi there,
We're using php 4.1 and it doesn't seem to have built in support for
this. Coming from a dotnet background this surprised me...Anyways,
thats a different topic altogether...
I'm looking for a php class that can allow me to save a complex
associative array as an xml file on our server and also be able to read
in back into a complex array when needed. (you'll find an example of
the array below). Because of the complexity if the array, I feel it
would be easier to use this method as opposed to saving to a db.
I know i could write a class to do it, but I'm trying not to reinvent
the wheel. Googleing only refers me to extentions like pear which I
dont want. And I 'm sure someone else has had to do this before.
Any information or links would be greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards,
Swayze
