(PHP ActiveX) Methods for Getting Attributes

Demonstrates some methods for getting attribute name/values.

The input XML, available at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/data/car.xml, is this:

<root>
    <car color="black" make="mercedes" model="C350" hp="302" engine="v6" type="sedan">Mercedes Benz C350</car>
</root>

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Xml')
$xml = new COM("Chilkat.Xml");

// The sample input XML is available at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/data/car.xml
$success = $xml->LoadXmlFile('car.xml');
if ($success != 1) {
    print $xml->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Navigate to the "car" node, which is the 1st child:
// carNode is a Chilkat.Xml
$carNode = $xml->FirstChild();

// Get the value of the "model" attribute:
print 'model = ' . $carNode->getAttrValue('model') . "\n";

// Get the value of the "hp" attribute as an integer:
$horsepower = $carNode->GetAttrValueInt('hp');
print 'horsepower = ' . $horsepower . "\n";

// Iterate over the attributes and show the name/value of each:
$numAttr = $carNode->NumAttributes;

$i = 0;
while ($i < $numAttr) {
    print $carNode->getAttributeName($i) . ': ' . $carNode->getAttributeValue($i) . "\n";
    $i = $i + 1;
}
