PHP: DomDocument->dump_mem

Описание

string DomDocument->dump_mem ( [bool format [, string encoding]] )

Creates an XML document from the dom representation. This function usually is called after building a new dom document from scratch as in the example below. The format specifies whether the output should be neatly formatted, or not.

Пример 1. Creating a simple HTML document header

<?php $doc = domxml_new_doc("1.0"); $root = $doc->create_element("HTML"); $root = $doc->append_child($root); $head = $doc->create_element("HEAD"); $head = $root->append_child($head); $title = $doc->create_element("TITLE"); $title = $head->append_child($title); $text = $doc->create_text_node("This is the title"); $text = $title->append_child($text); echo "<PRE>"; echo htmlentities($doc->dump_mem(true)); echo "</PRE>"; ?>

Замечание: The first parameter was added in PHP 4.3.0.

It seems that if you use $xslt->dump_mem(TRUE) IE: breaks and formats all the HTML Badly. Perhaps its a problem with CR's...

Given the missing description of the encoding parameter, I had hoped it would automatically encode the document if I set the encoding type; this is not the case.



At least in PHP v4.3.3, it seems that setting the encoding type does NOTHING other than set the name displayed in the string:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>



Thus if you want your values to be encoded, you need to manually encode them when you create your DOM object.  E.g. assume you have a simple setup like this:



<?php



  $text = '�Spanish exclamation!' ;



  $xml = domxml_new_doc( '1.0' );

  $node = $xml->create_element( 'example' );

  $cdata = $xml->create_cdata_section( $text );

  $node->append_child( $cdata );

  $xml->append_child( $node );



  echo $xml->dump_mem( true, 'UTF-8' ) ;



  ?>



This will output the following:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<example>

<![CDATA[�Spanish exclamation!]]>

</example>



However, that is not what was intended, as the exclamation is not UTF-8-encoded.  To make $text be encoded correctly, you have to explicitly do so, as in:



<?php



  $cdata = $xml->create_cdata_section( utf8_encode( $text ) );



  ?>



This results in the output being correctly UTF-8-encoded, as follows:



<![CDATA[¡Spanish exclamation!]]>



Apparently MSIE's MSXML2.DOMDocument ActiveX control requires UTF-8 encoding for special characters, and it will invalidate the entire document if those chars are not appropriately encoded, so beware.

<pre>

for xml file that goes like this:

<item>

<name>foo</name>

<desc>bar</desc>

</item>



Format ID's influence output in this manner:

case 0 :{

<item><name>foo</name><desc>bar</desc></item>

}

case 1 :{

<item>

    <name>foo</name>

    <desc>bar</desc>

</item>

}

case 2:{

<item>

    <name>

foo

    </name>

    <desc>

bar

    </desc>

</item>



If you use PHP SAX(Expat) XML engine, you should always stick to format "0". It reads any empty spaces as XML data.

string dump_mem(int format, string encoding);



format=0,1 = <tag>text</tag>

format=2 = 

<tag>

  text

</tag>



encoding set's the encoding attribute in line

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
