trying to add a Ajax search function to a xml file, and found this exemple :
<?php
$xmlDoc=new DOMDocument();
$xmlDoc->load("my_xml_file.xml");
$x=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('links');
//get the q parameter from URL
$q=$_GET["q"];
//lookup all links from the xml file if length of q>0
if (strlen($q)>0) {
$hint="";
for($i=0; $i<($x->length); $i++) {
$y=$x->item($i)->getElementsByTagName('title');
$z=$x->item($i)->getElementsByTagName('url');
if ($y->item(0)->nodeType==1) {
//find a link matching the search text
if (stristr($y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue,$q)) {
if ($hint=="") {
$hint="<a href='" .
$z->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue .
"' target='_blank'>" .
$y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue . "</a>";
} else {
$hint=$hint . "<br /><a href='" .
$z->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue .
"' target='_blank'>" .
$y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue . "</a>";
}
}
}
}
}
// Set output to "no suggestion" if no hint was found
// or to the correct values
if ($hint=="") {
$response="no suggestion";
} else {
$response=$hint;
}
//output the response
echo $response;
?>
This works perfect but the xml I have to search is a bit different and I don't know how to setup the function according to my needs. This is how is formatted my xml :
<data name="my_name"><![CDATA[Data content]]></data>
I changed
`$x=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('links'); to $x=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('data');`
But how to change
$y=$x->item($i)->getElementsByTagName('title');
to have
$y=$x->item($i)-> name;
and $z=$x->item($i)->Data
content without CDATA ?;
Thanx a lot for your help !!!
