A simple program to CRUD node and node values of xml file [closed]

Answer 1

You can use the PHP XQuery extension to do the job:

let $data := 
    setting1 value
    setting2 value 
    setting3 value 

return {
    (: Update :)
    replace value of node $data/setting1/text() with "Hello World";
    (: Delete :)
    delete node $data/setting2;
    (: Read :)
    $data
}
