Below given programs illustrate the DOMElement::setAttributeNode() function in PHP:
Program 1:
<?php // Create a new DOMDocument $dom = new DOMDocument(); // Create an element $node = $dom ->createElement( "p" , 'neveropen' ); // Add the node to the dom $newnode = $dom ->appendChild( $node ); // Create a DOMAttr instance which // increase the font-size $attr = new DOMAttr( 'style' , 'font-size: 80px;' ); // Set the attribute $newnode ->setAttributeNode( $attr ); // View the XML echo $dom ->saveXML(); ?> |
Output:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <p style="font-size: 80px;">neveropen</p>
Program 2:
<?php // Create a new DOMDocument $dom = new DOMDocument(); // Load the XML $dom ->loadXML("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?> <root> <html> <h1 id=\"my_id\"> Geeksforneveropen </h1> <h2> Second heading </h2> </html> </root>"); // Get the elements $node = $dom ->getElementsByTagName( 'h1' )[0]; echo "Before the addition of attributes: <br>" ; // Get the attribute count $attributeCount = $node ->attributes-> count (); echo 'No of attributes => ' . $attributeCount ; // Create a DOMAttr instance $attr = new DOMAttr( 'class' , 'value' ); // Add the new attribute $node ->setAttributeNode( $attr ); echo "<br>After the addition of attributes: <br>" ; // Get the attribute count $attributeCount = $node ->attributes-> count (); echo 'No of attributes => ' . $attributeCount ; ?> |
