I need some of your help, I'm working on my PHP script to create the XML document with encoding utf8 so I can generate the XML file to allow me to save the XML file in my web host.
I want to make the xml output to something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv">
<channel id="">
<display-name>Information from database</display-name>
<programme channel="Information from database" start="" stop="">
<title lang="en"></title>
<sub-title lang="en">
</sub-title>
<desc lang="en"></desc>
<category lang="en"></category>
</programme>
</channel>
Here's what my XML output looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv"><channel><display-name>Information from database</display-name><programme/><desc/></channel></tv>
Here's the current code:
<?php
function db_connect()
{
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_USER', 'myusername');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mypassword');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'mydbname');
$errmsg_arr = array();
$errflag = false;
$link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
if(!$link)
{
die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
}
$db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
if(!$db)
{
die("Unable to select database");
}
}
db_connect();
function clean($var)
{
return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var));
}
$channels = clean($_GET['channels']);
$id = clean($_GET['id']);
if($errflag)
{
$_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr;
echo implode('<br />',$errmsg_arr);
}
else
{
$insert = array();
if(isset($_GET['channels']))
{
$insert[] = 'channels = \'' . clean($_GET['channels']) .'\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
$insert[] = 'id = \'' . clean($_GET['id']) . '\'';
}
if($channels && $id)
{
$qrytable1="SELECT id, channels, links FROM tvguide WHERE channels='$channels' && id='$id'";
$result1=mysql_query($qrytable1) or die('Error:<br />' . $qry . '<br />' . mysql_error());
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv">
<channel id="">
<display-name></display-name>
<programme channel="" start="" stop="">
<title lang="en"></title>
<sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
<desc lang="en"></desc>
<category lang="en"></category>
</programme>
</channel>
</tv>';
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{
}
mysql_close();
}
else if(!$channels && ! $id)
{
$qrytable1="SELECT id, channels, links, streams FROM tvguide";
$result1=mysql_query($qrytable1) or die('Error:<br />' . $qry . '<br />' . mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{
}
mysql_close();
}
}
// create a dom document with encoding utf8
$domtree = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');
// create a root element of the xml tree
$tv = $domtree->createElement('tv');
//create attributes for element
$generator_info_name = $domtree->createAttribute('generator-info-name');
$generator_info_name->value = 'mysite.com/xmltv';
//append attribute
$tv->appendChild($generator_info_name);
// append element to the doc
$tv = $domtree->appendChild($tv);
//add a channel as a child of the root
$channel = $domtree->createElement('channel');
$channel_id = $domtree->createAttribute('id');
$channel_id->value = '""';
$channel = $tv->appendChild($channel);
//append children to channel
$channel->appendChild($domtree->createElement('display-name','Information from database'));
$channel->appendChild($domtree->createElement("programme"));
$channel->appendChild($domtree->createElement('desc'));
//finally, save the file
echo $domtree->saveXML();
$domtree->save('myChannel.xml');
?>
Do you know how I can make the same XML output as the first code?
And how I can output for each data from mysql database to put it in each channel tag and I want to add the tags under the channel tag including the display-name, programme-channel, title, sub-title, desc and category tags when I output for each data from mysql?
Edit: When I try this, it will not get the rows from mysql database to put the data in each xml tag channel with other tags display-name, programme-channel, title, sub-title, desc and category.
Here's the source:
<?php
function db_connect()
{
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_USER', 'mybox123');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'f00tball');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'mybox123_tvguide');
$errmsg_arr = array();
$errflag = false;
$link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
if(!$link)
{
die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
}
$db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
if(!$db)
{
die("Unable to select database");
}
}
db_connect();
function clean($var)
{
return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var));
}
$channels = clean($_GET['channels']);
$id = clean($_GET['id']);
if($errflag)
{
$_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr;
echo implode('<br />',$errmsg_arr);
}
else
{
$insert = array();
if(isset($_GET['channels']))
{
$insert[] = 'channels = \'' . clean($_GET['channels']) .'\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
$insert[] = 'id = \'' . clean($_GET['id']) . '\'';
}
if($channels && $id)
{
$qrytable1="SELECT id, channels, links FROM tvguide WHERE channels='$channels' && id='$id'";
$result1=mysql_query($qrytable1) or die('Error:<br />' . $qry . '<br />' . mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{
}
mysql_close();
}
else if(!$channels && ! $id)
{
$qrytable1="SELECT id, channels, links, streams FROM tvguide";
$result1=mysql_query($qrytable1) or die('Error:<br />' . $qry . '<br />' . mysql_error());
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv"></tv>';
$my_xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{
foreach($row as $rows)
{
$channel = $my_xml->addChild('channel');
$channel->addAttribute('id', '');
$channel->addChild('display-name', $row['channel']);
$programme = $channel->addChild('programme');
$programme->addAttribute('channel', $row['channel']);
$programme->addAttribute('start', $row['start']);
$programme->addAttribute('stop', $row['stop']);
$title = $programme->addChild('title', $row['title']);
$title->addAttribute('lang', 'en');
$sub_title = $programme->addChild('sub-title', $row['subtitle']);
$sub_title->addAttribute('lang', 'en');
$desc = $programme->addChild('desc', $row['desc']);
$desc->addAttribute('lang', 'en');
$category = $programme->addChild('category', $row['category']);
$category->addAttribute('lang', 'en');
}
}
mysql_close();
}
}
// create a dom document with encoding utf8
$domtree = new DOMDocument($my_xml);
//finally, save the file
echo $domtree->saveXML();
$domtree->save('myChannel.xml');
?>
Here's the xml output:
<?xml version=""?>
