Here is an xml example that I load from an external xml file $data = file_get_contents($filename); $dom->loadXML($data);
Using php, I want to walk through this xml to get the title, question, and each question's choices.
<questions>
<record topic = "classic video games">
<title>Centipede</title>
<question>How many shots does it take to destroy a mushroom?</question>
<choices>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">1</choice>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">2</choice>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">3</choice>
<choice correct="yes" votes="0">4</choice>
</choices>
</record>
<record topic = "classic video games">
<title>Quake</title>
<question>What is the name of the most powerful weapon in Quake?</question>
<choices>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">gauntlet</choice>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">machine gun</choice>
<choice correct="yes" votes="0">BFG2000</choice>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">rocket launcher</choice>
<choice correct="no" votes="0">railgun</choice>
</choices>
</record>
</questions>
I want my result to be like this:
Title = Centipede
Question = How many shots does it take to destroy a mushroom?
I. 1
II. 2
III. 3
IV. 4
here is my try:
$dom->loadXML($data);
$all_records = $dom->getElementsByTagName("record");
$all_choices = $dom->getElementsByTagName("choices");
foreach($all_records as $record){
$question = $record->getElementsByTagName("question")->item(0)->nodeValue;
$title = $record->getElementsByTagName("title")->item(0)->nodeValue;
echo "<h2> Title=$title</h2>";
echo "<h5><em>Question=$question</em></h5>";
echo "<li>". $all_choices->getElementsByTagName("choice")->nodeValue."</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
echo "</div>\n";
}
I'm able to get the title and the question, but not the choices!
You need to fetch the choices
set using an inner loop as you inspect each record:
<?php
$dom->loadXML($data);
$all_records = $dom->getElementsByTagName("record");
foreach($all_records as $record) {
$question = $record->getElementsByTagName("question")->item(0)->nodeValue;
$title = $record->getElementsByTagName("title")->item(0)->nodeValue;
$choices = $record->getElementsByTagName('choice');
echo "<h2> Title=$title</h2>";
echo "<h5><em>Question=$question</em></h5>";
echo '<ol class="choices">';
foreach ( $choices as $choice ) {
echo "<li>" . $choice->nodeValue . "</li>\n";
}
echo "</ol>";
echo "</div>\n";
}
