Help accessing xml attribute in php [duplicate]

问题:

This question already has an answer here:

• SimpleXML: Selecting Elements Which Have A Certain Attribute Value 2 answers

I'm new to php and coding in general. I'm trying to parse xml from a remote device and access specific value data. I would like to display group 9 probe 1 value for example and I cannot get it to work. Any tips?

Here is the xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
- <Device id="S10011" hb="1935">
  <Group id="1" /> 
  <Group id="2" /> 
  <Group id="3" /> 
  <Group id="4" /> 
  <Group id="5" /> 
  <Group id="6" /> 
  <Group id="7" /> 
  <Group id="8" /> 
- <Group id="9">
- <Probe id="99">
  <Value>1.0</Value> 
  </Probe>
- <Probe id="1">
  <Value>86.4</Value> 
  </Probe>
- <Probe id="2">
  <Value>45.7</Value> 
  </Probe>
- <Probe id="3">
  <Value>2.9</Value> 
  </Probe>
- <Probe id="4">
  <Value>1.0</Value> 
  </Probe>
  </Group>
  </Device>

---

Here is my php code to read in the xml:

    <?php
   // Establish a port 80 connection
   $http = fsockopen("192.168.2.106",80);

   // Send a request to the server
   $req = "GET /xmldata HTTP/1.0\r\n";
   $req .= "Host: 192.168.2.106\r\n";
   $req .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
   fputs($http, $req);

   // Output the request results
   while(!feof($http)) {
      $xmlstr .= fgets($http, 2048);
   }
   // Close the connection
   fclose($http);


   $xml = simplexml_load_string($xmlstr);

   print_r($xml);

   $myValue = $xml->xpath('//Group[@ID="9"]/Probe[@ID="1"]/value'); 
   echo $myValue;
?> 

A print_r($xml); shows the following info:

回答1:

Try this instead:

   $myValue = $xml->xpath('//Group[@id="9"]/Probe[@id="1"]/Value');  
   echo $myValue[0]; 

回答2:

You have to strip the HTTP header from the HTTP response or you won't get a valid XML document. Depending on your hosting environment you may be able to pass an HTTP URL to simplexml_load_file() which is much simpler than what you're doing.

Also your xpath doesn't work because XML attributes and tag names are case sensitive.

$xml = simplexml_load_file("http://192.168.2.106/xmldata");
$myValue = $xml->xpath("//Group[@id='9']/Probe[@id='1']/Value"); 
echo $myValue[0];

Are all these dashes in the XML source just a copy/paste issue?

<?php
$device = getDoc();
// iterate over all Group elements that have one or more Probe elements that have one or more Value elements.
foreach( $device->xpath('Group[Probe/Value]') as $group ) {
  echo 'Group id=', $group['id'], "\n";
  foreach( $group->Probe as $probe ) {
    echo '  probe id=', $probe['id'], "\n";
    foreach( $probe->Value as $value ) {
      echo '   value=', $value, "\n";
    }
  }
}

function getDoc() {
  return new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
    <Device id="S10011" hb="1935">
      <Group id="1" /> 
      <Group id="2" /> 
      <Group id="3" /> 
      <Group id="4" /> 
      <Group id="5" /> 
      <Group id="6" /> 
      <Group id="7" /> 
      <Group id="8" /> 
      <Group id="9">
      <Probe id="99">
        <Value>1.0</Value> 
      </Probe>
      <Probe id="1">
        <Value>86.4</Value> 
      </Probe>
      <Probe id="2">
        <Value>45.7</Value> 
      </Probe>
      <Probe id="3">
        <Value>2.9</Value> 
      </Probe>
      <Probe id="4">
        <Value>1.0</Value> 
      </Probe>
      </Group>
    </Device>');
}

prints

Group id=9
  probe id=99
   value=1.0
  probe id=1
   value=86.4
  probe id=2
   value=45.7
  probe id=3
   value=2.9
  probe id=4
   value=1.0

回答4:

xml:

<root><item attrname="5"/></root>

php:

$var = $xml->xpath('root/item/@attrname');
echo $var[0];

or >= php5.3

$var = $xml->xpath('root/item/@attrname')[0];
echo $var;

result:

5
