Below given programs illustrate the DOMNamedNodeMap::item() function in PHP:
Program 1: In this example, we will get the name of attributes after fetching them using index()
<?php // Create a new DOMDocument $dom = new DOMDocument(); // Load the XML $dom->loadXML("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?> <root> <html> <h1 id=\"first\" class=\"first\" attrib=\"attrib_value\"> Geeksforneveropen </h1> </html> </root>"); // Get the elements $node = $dom->getElementsByTagName('h1')[0]; // Get the 2nd attribute's value $attribute1 = $node->attributes->item(0)->nodeName; $attribute2 = $node->attributes->item(1)->nodeName; $attribute3 = $node->attributes->item(2)->nodeName; echo "$attribute1, $attribute2 and $attribute3"; ?> |
Output:
id, class and attrib
Program 2: In this example we will get the value of attributes after fetching them using index()
<?php // Create a new DOMDocument $dom = new DOMDocument(); // Load the XML $dom->loadXML("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?> <root> <html> <h1 id=\"first\" class=\"neveropen\" attrib=\"attrib_value\"> Geeksforneveropen </h1> </html> </root>"); // Get the elements $node = $dom->getElementsByTagName('h1')[0]; // Get the 2nd attribute's value $attribute1 = $node->attributes->item(0)->nodeValue; $attribute2 = $node->attributes->item(1)->nodeValue; $attribute3 = $node->attributes->item(2)->nodeValue; echo "$attribute1, $attribute2 and $attribute3"; ?> |
