xmlreader

I'm using XMLReader and PHP to process a moderately-sized XML file (6mb) and basically break up the attribute data and insert it into my own database. Problem is, each element has a variable number of subelements with identically named attributes. Here's an example (this is open data about the government courtesy of govtrack.us): <?xml version="1.0" ?> <people> <person id='400001' lastname='Abercrombie' firstname='Neil' birthday='1938-06-26' gender='M' pvsid='26827' osid='N00007665' bioguideid='A000014' metavidid='Neil_Abercrombie' youtubeid='hawaiirep1' name='Rep. Neil Abercrombie [D, HI-1]'

My xml file has something like this: ... <Keyword name = "if" /> <Keyword name = "else" /> <Keyword name = "is" /> ... So how can I recursively get all of the values of the name attribute and add them to a List<string> or string[] . Maybe a foreach loop? I followed codemeit's and I keep getting an error: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1. My xml file is <KeyWords> ... <KeyWord name = "if" /> ... </KeyWord> New problem The '\' character, hexadecimal value 0x5C, cannot be included in a name. but the same file. Assume let variable testXml is equal to the follow xml string

I am trying to fetch the value of the following nodes from [this URL (takes quite some time to load)][1]. The elements I'm interested in are: title, g:price and g:gtin The XML starts like this: <rss xmlns:g="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0" version="2.0"> <channel> <title>PhotoSpecialist.de</title> <link>http://www.photospecialist.de</link> <description/> <item> <g:id>BEN107C</g:id> <title>Benbo Trekker Mk3 + Kugelkopf + Tasche</title> <description> Benbo Trekker Mk3 + Kugelkopf + Tasche Das Benbo Trekker Mk3 ist eine leichte Variante des beliebten Benbo 1. Sein geringes Gewicht macht das

I'd like to parse one XML document using XMLReader. I have a case switch with all the Constants. However, if a Tag is self-closing XMLReader only fires ELEMENT, not ELEMENT and than END_ELEMENT like expected. Detection through class property $isEmptyElement does also not work because the tag has attributes. Therefore my question: How to detect a self-closing XML tag with XMLReader in PHP? Related but no solution: XmlReader - Self-closing element does not fire a EndElement event? Example Node: <mynode name="somenamestring" code="intstring" option="intstring3"/> My Code: $xmlReader->open($url

I'm relatively new to parsing XML files and am attempting to read a large XML file with XMLReader. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ShowVehicleRemarketing environment="Production" lang="en-CA" release="8.1-Lite" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.starstandards.org/STAR /STAR/Rev4.2.4/BODs/Standalone/ShowVehicleRemarketing.xsd"> <ApplicationArea> <Sender> <Component>Component</Component> <Task>Task</Task> <ReferenceId>w5/cron</ReferenceId> <CreatorNameCode>CreatorNameCode</CreatorNameCode> <SenderNameCode>SenderNameCode</SenderNameCode> <SenderURI>http://www.example.com</SenderURI> <Language

I like to read data from following mybatis xml file by java code. (Not mybatis mapping, just want to read data form outside application.) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE mapper PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Mapper 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-mapper.dtd"> <mapper namespace="com.raistudies.persistence.UserService"> <resultMap id="result" type="user"> <result property="id" column="id"/> <result property="name" column="name"/> <result property="standard" column="standard"/> <result property="age" column="age"/> <result property="sex" column="sex"/> </resultMap>
