I've this structure in a XML file:
Type
Model
Detail
Datas
Datas
Datas
Datas
/Detail
Detail
Datas
Datas
Datas
/Detail
/Model
/Type
I've parsed all the stuff, by putting everything in an array.
Now, I've a problem as I must use datas in "Detail" tag every time they are
processed, but I must first process datas in Model, so I have to wait until
Model tag is closed.
For now I put everything in an array called $datas (where I store the couple
key/value). How can I do to create, at a certain point, a new array for
storing the Detail array (in order to have an array for every Detail that
may occur, as this isn't a fixed number of Details ?)
Thanks for helping. 8 2169

Been to http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.php yet? XML parsers are your
friend.

Just create a new array for an array data :
like this
$data["Model1"]["Detail1"] = array("Datas1", "Datas2", "Datas3");

It's what I've done until now. My message tell that I've already passed this
stage. I have already parsed the XML file (with the help of examples from
php.net). The problem comes while using arrays.
Thanks anyway for your help.

Thanks, Savut, exactly the help I wanted !
One more question:
As you can guess, I'm not so confortable with arrays....so, how can I then
show all datas since sometimes Detail1 can be a value and other it can be an
array:
Like in pseudo-code
for every value of $data
if $data[value] is an array
for every Avalue of $data[value]
echo("$data[value][AValue][Key] -
$data[value][AValue][Value]<br>");
else
echo(echo("$data[value][Key] - $data[value][Value]<br>");
How can I do this ?
BoB
here come is_array($data[x][y]);

Thanks Savut,
In fact I'm stuck before this. I'll tell you the tree and then maybe you can
help me:
Take back the example:
/**************************/
Type
SomeDatas
SomeDatas
Model (array)
Mod0Datas
Mod1Datas
Detail (array)
Datas
Datas
Datas
Datas
/Detail
Detail (array)
Datas
Datas
Datas
/Detail
/Model
Brand (array)
Brand0Datas
Brand1Datas
Detail (array)
Datas
Datas
/Detail
Detail (array)
Datas
Datas
Datas
/Detail
/Brand
/Type
/**************************/
So I create the $data array for storing everyting in Type.
function startElement($parser, $name, $attrs)
....
switch($name){
case 'Type':
$datas["TAG"] = $name;
break;
case 'Model': //or 'Brand'
$actualarray = $name;
$datas[$actualarray] = array(); //create an array for Model or Brand
elements
break;
case 'Datas':
$datasindex = count($datas[$actualarray]);
$datas[$actualarray][$datasindex] = $name;
here I'm stuck !!!!
- $datas is the "Mother" array, that stores everything
- when I encounter the word "Model" or "Brand" in the XML file, I've to
create an array (empty for now).
- Until I encounter the closing /Model or /Brand, I've to put everything in
the $datas["Model"] array as long as they are datas.
in the $datas["Model"] or $datas["Brand"] array, I've to create an other
array as soon as I encounter the word "Detail" for storing the Detail's
datas, and then fill the $datas["Model"]["Detail"] until I encounter the
/Detail word.
My question is: How do I create such arrays on the fly (look the
startElement for what I mean) and what should I keep for pointers...I've to
keep indexes, as I will create an array of array of array, and I will then
be able to walk trough each element. (this code would also be greately
appreciated...)
I've never worked with PHP arrays before, this is the first time I need
them, and it's quite difficult as a starting point !!!!
Thank you !!!!
Best regards.

Ah, I didn't know that's what you meant by parsed. Glad you got the help you
wanted in the end though.

I suggest you to use xpath so you can navigate inside an xml document more
easily :
Here a simple preview of what he can do.
$domxml = new DomDocument("yourxmlfile.xml");
$xpath = new DomXPath($domxml);
$BrandDetail = $xpath->query("/Type/Brand/Detail");
foreach($BrandDetail as $value) {
$datas["Brand"]["Detail"][] = $value; //[] is used for auto increment
the array
}
But this work only on PHP5 as I know
here some exemple http://www.zend.com/php5/articles/php5-xmlphp.php
If not, then use domxml then navigate inside with has_child_nodes() and
node_name() and node_value() all with foreach() loop.
You can check this for exemple and tutorial, http://ca3.php.net/domxml.
This is very long but worth to learn it.
Hope this help
