Simple xml2array that PRESERVES HTML
Posted: Thu Dec 30, 2010 6:08 pm
The following code is relatively short, but censors any HTML tags inside the XML:
This one keeps HTML but turns everything into one giant string:
So how can I easily preserve HTML? But better yet, can I somehow just tell PHP which tags to convert? For example, only <this> and <that> in:
thus creating:
Code: Select all
function object2array($object) // from php.net
{
$return = NULL;
if(is_array($object))
{
foreach($object as $key => $value)
$return[$key] = object2array($value);
}
else
{
$var = get_object_vars($object);
if($var)
{
foreach($var as $key => $value)
$return[$key] = ($key && !$value) ? NULL : object2array($value);
}
else return $object;
}
return $return;
}
$bla=simplexml_load_file($xml_file);
$bla=object2array($bla);
Code: Select all
$bla=$bla->asXML();
Code: Select all
<this>
<that>Text <foo>and</foo> test and <whatever>something</whatever>.</that>
</this>
Code: Select all
Array
(
[this] => Array
[0] => Array
(
[that] => Text <foo>and</foo> test and <whatever>something</whatever>.
)
}
