If you want to print the DOM XML file content, you can use the next code:
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->load($xmlFileName);
echo "<br>" . $doc->documentURI;
$x = $doc->documentElement;
getNodeContent($x->childNodes, 0);
function getNodeContent($nodes, $level){
foreach ($nodes AS $item) {
// print "<br><br>TIPO: " . $item->nodeType ;
printValues($item, $level);
if ($item->nodeType == 1) { //DOMElement
foreach ($item->attributes AS $itemAtt) {
printValues($itemAtt, $level+3);
}
if($item->childNodes || $item->childNodes->lenth > 0) {
getNodeContent($item->childNodes, $level+5);
}
}
}
}
function printValues($item, $level){
if ($item->nodeType == 1) { //DOMElement
printLevel($level);
print $item->nodeName . " = " . $item->nodeValue;
}
if ($item->nodeType == 2) { //DOMAttr
printLevel($level);
print $item->name . " = " . $item->value ;
}
if ($item->nodeType == 3) { //DOMText
if ($item->isWhitespaceInElementContent() == false){
printLevel($level);
print $item->wholeText ;
}
}
}
function printLevel($level)
{
print "<br>";
if ($level == 0) {
print "<br>";
}
for($i=0; $i < $level; $i++) {
print "-";
}
}

Here is a fast innerHTML function that returns the result without iterating over child nodes.
<?php
function innerHTML($el) {
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->appendChild($doc->importNode($el, TRUE));
$html = trim($doc->saveHTML());
$tag = $el->nodeName;
return preg_replace('@^<' . $tag . '[^>]*>|</' . $tag . '>$@', '', $html);
}
?>
Example
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument();
// A corrupt HTML string
$doc->loadHTML('<HTML><A HREF="ss">asd</A>');
$body = $doc->getElementsByTagName('body')->item(0);
print htmlspecialchars(innerHTML($body));
// Prints <a href="ss">asd</a>
?>

A function among several others to parse a google results page, I wrote this some time ago - google has probably changed their site since then, but I thought this might be helpful to someone.
I'm moving servers, but I will probably throw this up on my blog when I get it back up.
<?php
function googleResult($listItem) {
// given a LIST ITEM element, this will validate, and return an array for that LI entry as an inline result from google.
$listItem = $listItem->childNodes;
// Yes I don't use instanceof - I guess you'll have to deal.
foreach($listItem as $element) {
if(is_object($element) && get_class($element) == 'DOMElement' && $element->hasChildNodes()) {
$hrefContainer = $element->childNodes;
foreach($hrefContainer as $element2) {
if(is_object($element2) && get_class($element2) == 'DOMElement' && $element2->nodeName == 'a' && $element2->hasAttribute('href')) {
$anchor = $element2;
unset($h3);
unset($element2);
break;
} else {
//print __LINE__ ." :: Breaking out of loop (normal result) element is not an annchor Element='".$element2->nodeName."'\n";
}
}
unset($element);
unset($listItem);

}
}
if(empty($anchor) || !is_object($anchor) || get_class($anchor) != 'DOMElement') {
//print __LINE__ ." :: Returning false, did not locate anchor through iteration...";
return false;
}
$href = $anchor->getAttribute('href');
if(empty($href)) {
//print __LINE__ ." :: Found anchor object, could not read href attribute / href is empty? href='$href'\n";
return false;

I had the hardest time updating a complex XML document. Here's a quick example on how to do it.
<?php
// Load the XML from a file.
$xml = "a2062.xml"; // This is an XFDL form previously unencoded and ungzipped.
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->Load($xml);
// Create an XPath query.
// Note: you must define the namespace if the XML document has defined namespaces.
$xpath = new DOMXPath($dom);
$xpath->registerNamespace('xfdl', "http://www.PureEdge.com/XFDL/6.5");
// Locate the value for the first Item Description field.
$query = "//xfdl:page/xfdl:field[@sid='ITEMDESA']/xfdl:value";
$nodeList = $xpath->query($query);
$nodeList->item(0)->nodeValue = "This is the text in the value node of the first Item Description field inside the DA 2062 PureEdge form.";
$dom->save($xml);
?>
I hope this helps someone.

You can get the "innerHTML" by nodeValue so
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument( );
$ele = $doc->createElement( 'p', 'Sensei Ninja' );
print $ele->nodeValue;
?>
You can even set it if you want
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument( );
$ele = $doc->createElement( 'p' );
$ele->nodeValue = 'Sensei Ninja';
$doc->appendChild( $ele );
print $doc->saveHTML( );
?>

Here is the new version, hope it helps someone :
<?php
function getNodeXPath( $node ) {
$result='';
while ($parentNode = $node->parentNode) {
$nodeIndex=-1;
$nodeTagIndex=0;
do {
$nodeIndex++;
$testNode = $parentNode->childNodes->item( $nodeIndex );
if ($testNode->nodeName==$node->nodeName and $testNode->parentNode->isSameNode($node->parentNode) and $testNode->childNodes->length>0) {
//echo "{$testNode->parentNode->nodeName}-{$testNode->nodeName}-{}<br/>";

After searching how to extend the DOMDocument and DOMElement I found a way in the bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35104. The following code shows how:
<?php
class extDOMDocument extends DOMDocument {
public function createElement($name, $value=null) {
$orphan = new extDOMElement($name, $value); // new sub-class object
$docFragment = $this->createDocumentFragment(); // lightweight container maintains "ownerDocument"
$docFragment->appendChild($orphan); // attach
$ret = $docFragment->removeChild($orphan); // remove
return $ret; // ownerDocument set; won't be destroyed on method exit
}
// .. more class definition
}
class extDOMElement extends DOMElement {
function __construct($name, $value='', $namespaceURI=null) {
parent::__construct($name, $value, $namespaceURI);
}
// ... more class definition here
}
$doc = new extDOMDocument('test');
$el = $doc->createElement('tagname');
$el->setAttribute("attr", "val");
$doc->appendChild($el);
// append discards the DOMDocumentFragment and just adds its child nodes, but ownerDocument is maintained.
echo get_class($el)."<br/>";
echo get_class($doc->documentElement)."<br/>";
echo "<xmp>".$doc->saveXML()."</xmp>";

If you need simple interface to DOM check out phpQuery - jQuery port to PHP:
http://code.google.com/p/phpquery/
It uses CSS selectors to fetch nodes.
Here's example how it works:
<?php
// just one file to include
require('phpQuery/phpQuery.php');
$html = '
<div>
mydiv
<ul>
<li>1</li>
<li>2</li>
<li>3</li>
</ul>
</div>';
// intialize new DOM from markup
phpQuery::newDocument($markup)
->find('ul > li')
->addClass('my-new-class')
->filter(':last')
->addClass('last-li');
// query all unordered lists in last used DOM
pq('ul')->insertAfter('div');
// iterate all LIs from last used DOM
foreach(pq('li') as $li) {
// iteration returns plain DOM nodes, not phpQuery objects
pq($li)->addClass('my-second-new-class');
}
// same as pq('anything')->htmlOuter()
// but on document root (returns doctype etc)
print phpQuery::getDocument();
?>
It uses DOM extension and XPath so it works only in PHP5.

I needed a function that quickly converts an xml with key/value pairs to an array.
for example:
<?phpxml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<key id="Array key #1" value="Value #1"/>
<key id="Array key #2" value="Value #2"/>
<key id="Dupe" value="Duplicate keys"/>
<key id="Dupe" value="create numeric arrays"/>
<key id="And another key">
<![CDATA[

just
as
well.
]]>
</key>
<nested>
<key id="Nested key" value="Nested data works as well, but it still results in a 1 dimensional array."/>
</nested>
</test>
Results in the following array:
array(5) {
["Array key #1"]=>
string(8) "Value #1"
["Array key #2"]=>
string(8) "Value #2"
["Dupe"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(14) "Duplicate keys"
[1]=>
string(21) "create numeric arrays"
}
["And another key"]=>
string(49) "Multiline
data
works
just
as
well."
["Nested key"]=>
string(73) "Nested data works as well, but it still results in a 1 dimensional array."
}
Here's the code:
<?php
function xml2array($xml) {
$domDocument = new DOMDocument;
$domDocument->loadXML($xml);
$domXPath = new DOMXPath($domDocument);
$array = array();
foreach ($domXPath->query('//key') as $keyDOM) {

In response to...
"If you create your own custom element extending DOMElement and append him in place of the document element, you cannot access to any new members newly defined in your custom class via DOMDocument::$documentElement."
... it is not a bug, it is a feature. The DOMDocument::$documentElement property name may be misleading but according to the DOM Level 2 Core specification it is a convenience attribute meant to access the root element of your DOMDocument. See here: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/core.html#i-Document
[#18] ryoroxdahouse at hotmail dot com [2008-01-25 00:14:26]
I use DOM to generate dynamically XHTML document.
When trying to extend the DOMDocument and DOMElement classes, I found a very annoying bug concerning DOMDocument::$documentElement.
If you create your own custom element extending DOMElement and append him in place of the document element, you cannot access to any new members newly defined in your custom class via DOMDocument::$documentElement.
In my situation, I cannot use DOMDocument::registerNodeClass() because the document element is not necessarily the base class for all the elements in my document.
*******
problem
*******
See bellow for the repro step:
<?php
class MyElement extends DOMElement{
public $myProp="myProp";
public function myMethod(){
return 'myMethod()';
}
}
$myDocument=new DOMDocument();
$myDocument->appendChild(new MyElement('myElement','myElement'));
echo ('$myElement->myProp :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myProp.'<br />');
echo ('$myElement->myMethod :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myMethod().'<br />');
?>
will output:
Notice: Undefined property: DOMElement::$myProp in C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 2.0b1\www\testDOMBug\test2.php on line 11
$myElement->myProp :
Fatal error: Call to undefined method DOMElement::myMethod() in C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 2.0b1\www\testDOMBug\test2.php on line 12
*******
solution
*******
After searching around, I found a pretty odd way to fix this problem. It seems that you have to stock a reference to your appended document element in an user-defined (and persistent) variable (in other words, not only in DOMDocument::$documentElement). See below:
<?php
class MyElement extends DOMElement{
public $myProp="myProp";
public function myMethod(){
return 'myMethod()';

$myDocument=new DOMDocument();
$mydocumentElement=$myDocument->appendChild(new MyElement('myElement','myElement')); //here is the hack
echo ('$myElement->myProp :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myProp.'<br />');
echo ('$myElement->myMethod :'.$myDocument->documentElement->myMethod().'<br />');

will output:
$myElement->myProp :myProp
$myElement->myMethod :myMethod()
Hope it will help.

I developed a group of functions that make it very easy to extract any information you want from any page you load from the internet. All based on the DOMDocument object.
You can read the entire documentation and download the source code here:

Enjoy !!

The following can take a XML_TEXT_NODE node and return the contents in an array. Yanick's contribution rocks - but
it overwrote with duplicates only keeping the last line
in the returned array. All the other functions i tested from various sources failed to handle text nodes correctly. Hope this helps someone. It is adapted from code on this site.
function myTextNode($n, &$a)
{
static $depth = 0;
static $sz = '';
if ($cn = $n->firstChild)
{
while ($cn)
{
if ($cn->nodeType == XML_TEXT_NODE)
{
$sz .= $cn->nodeValue;
}
elseif ($cn->nodeType == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
$b = 1;
if ($cn->hasChildNodes())
{
$depth++;
if ($this->myHeadings($cn, $a))
{
if ($sz){
array_push($a, $sz);
$sz = '';
}
}
$depth--;
}
}
$cn = $cn->nextSibling;
}
return $b;
}
}
so you could use:
$nodes = $dom->getElementsByTagName("td");
if($nodes){
foreach ($nodes as $node){
$a = Array();
myTextNode($node, $a);
}
}

Array to DOM
Here is a recursive function to turn a multidimensional array into an XML document. It will handle multiple elements of the same tag, but only one per parent element. IE:
Can't generate: Can generate:
<root> <root>
<sub1>data1</sub1> <subs1>
<sub1>data2</sub1> <value>data1</value>
<sub2>data1</sub2> <value>data2</value>
<sub2>data2</sub2> </subs1>
</root> <subs2>
<value>data1</value>
<value>data2</value>
<subs2>
</root>
Also, the function performs no type of error checking on your array and will throw a DOMException if a key value you used in your array contains invalid characters for a proper DOM tag. This function is untested for "deep" multidimensional arrays.
Complete code ready to run with example:
<?PHP
function AtoX($array, $DOM=null, $root=null){
if($DOM == null){$DOM = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');}
if($root == null){$root = $DOM->appendChild($DOM->createElement('root'));}
$name = $array['#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME'];
foreach($array as $key => $value){
if(is_int($key) && $name != null){
if(is_array($value)){
$subroot = $root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($name));
AtoX($value, $DOM, $subroot);
}
else if(is_scalar($value)){
$root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($name, $value));
}
}
else if(is_string($key) && $key != '#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME'){
if(is_array($value)){
$subroot = $root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($key));
AtoX($value, $DOM, $subroot);
}
else if(is_scalar($value)){
$root->appendChild($DOM->createElement($key, $value));
}
}
}
return $DOM;
}
$array = array(
'#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME' => 'GenericDatas',
'Date' => 'November 03, 2007',
'Company' => 'Facility One',
'Field' => 'Facility Management Software',
'Employees' => array(
'#MULTIPLE_ELEMENT_NAME' => 'Employee',

In order to REALLY well handle XHTML entities with DOM, you can do following things:
1. Add this DOCTYPE to your documents
<!DOCTYPE xhtmlentities PUBLIC "-//W3C//ENTITIES XHTML Character Entities 1.0//EN" "/xhtml11.ent">
2. Copy http://freyjkell.ovh.org/xhtml11.ent into your document root.
3. In your PHP:
<?php
$dom=new DOMDocument();
$dom->load('file.xhtml',LIBXML_DTDLOAD); // NOT resolveExternals - it needs true doctype, and includes crap code
// some DOM operations
$doctype=DOMImplementation::createDocumentType("html","-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN","http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"); // creating real doctype
$output=DOMImplementation::createDocument('','',$doctype);
$output->appendChild($output->importNode($dom->documentElement,true));
$output->encoding='utf-8';
$output=$output->saveXML();
$xhtml=preg_match(
'/application\/xhtml\+xml(?![+a-z])'.
'(;q=(0\.\d{1,3}|[01]))?/i',
$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT'],$xhtml) &&
(isset($xhtml[2])?$xhtml[2]:1) > 0 ||
strpos($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"],
"W3C_Validator")!==false ||
strpos($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"],
"WebKit")!==false; // XHTML Content-Negotiation
header('Content-Type: '.($xhtml?'application/xhtml+xml':'text/html').'; charset=utf-8');
print $output;
?>

The Yanik's dom2array() function (added on 14-Mar-2007 08:40) does not handle multiple nodes with the same name, i.e.:
<foo>
<name>aa</name>
<name>bb</name>
</foo>
It will overwrite former and your array will contain just the last one ("bb")

(see my post on

)
Use this class I wrote:
class XPathableNode extends DOMNode
{
protected $Node;
protected $DOMDocument_from_node;
protected $DOMXpath_for_node;
public function __construct( $node)
{
$this->Node=$node;
$this->DOMDocument_from_node=new
DomDocument();
$domNode=$this->DOMDocument_from_node
->importNode($this->Node, true);
$this->DOMDocument_from_node
->appendChild($domNode);
$this->DomXpath_for_node =
new Domxpath($this->
DOMDocument_from_node);
}
public function convertHTML()
{ return $this->DOMDocument_from_node
->saveHTML();
}
public function applyXpath($xpath)
{ return $this->DomXpath_for_node
->query($xpath);
}
}
(sorry for the display... What a terrible hinderance on the
part of php.net !)
Then :
Make a new XPathableNode out of your parent node.
You may then retrieve a DOMNodeList from it by applying a
xpath (thus being able to specify the depth and name of
elements you want).
Has got me around some (of the many) DOM awkwardnesses a few times.

when you got variable nodes at start you array fails and looses nodes beneath.
solution that counts occurance though eats up performance:
function xmlToArray($n)
{
$xml_array = array();
$occurance = array();
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc)
{
$occurance[$nc->nodeName]++;
}
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc){

return utf8_decode($nc->nodeValue);

I found the xml2array function below very useful, but there seems to be a bug in it. The $item variable was never getting set. I've expanded this out to be a bit more readable, and the corrected code is :
function xmlToArray($n)
{
$return=array();
foreach($n->childNodes as $nc){
if( $nc->hasChildNodes() ){
if( $n->firstChild->nodeName== $n->lastChild->nodeName&&$n->childNodes->length>1){
$item = $n->firstChild;
$return[$nc->nodeName][]=$this->xmlToArray($item);
}
else{
$return[$nc->nodeName]=$this->xmlToArray($nc);
}
}
else{
$return=$nc->nodeValue;
}
}
return $return;

If you are using not object-oriented functions and it takes too much time to change them all (or you'll be replacing them later) then as a temporary decision can be used this modules:

Most email clients ignore stylesheets in HTML formatted emails. The best way to ensure your HTML is formatted correctly by a broad spectrum of email clients, including webmail implementations as Gmail, is to use inline style attributes. The following function uses DOM to parse an inline stylesheet, and will replace element class and id attributes with inline style attributes, and add inline style attributes for generic tag stylesheet rules. It will remove the stylesheet and any used class and id attributes as these are defunct for most email clients. It is a fairly lightweight function and does not support CSS inheritance, but will work for simple stylesheets e.g.:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML EMAIL</title>
<style type="text/css">
body {
margin: 10px 10px;
font: 8pt arial;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
}
p {
margin: 0 0 10px;
line-height: 1.2em;
text-align: justify;
}
p.centered {
text-align: centre;
}
p#right {
text-align: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Sample text justified</p>
<p class="centered">Centered text here</p>
<p id="right">Right-aligned text</p>
</body>
</html>
Here's the function:
<?php
function parseStyleSheetfor Email($html)
{
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->loadHTML($html);
// grab inline stylesheet as DOM object
$oStyle = $doc->getElementsByTagName('style')->item(0);
// grab rule identifiers and rules
preg_match_all('/^([-#._a-z0-9]+) ?\{(.*?)\}/ims', $oStyle->nodeValue, $aMatches, PREG_SET_ORDER);
foreach ($aMatches as $aRule) {
$rule_id = $aRule[1];
// clean up rules
$rule = str_replace(array("\r", "\n", ' ', '; '), array('', '', ' ', ';'), $aRule[2]);
$rule = preg_replace(array('/^ /', '/;$/'), '', $rule);
// generic rules

The project I'm currently working on uses XPaths to dynamically navigate through chunks of an XML file. I couldn't find any PHP code on the net that would build the XPath to a node for me, so I wrote my own function. Turns out it wasn't as hard as I thought it might be (yay recursion), though it does entail using some PHP shenanigans...
Hopefully it'll save someone else the trouble of reinventing this wheel.
<?php
function getNodeXPath( $node ) {
// REMEMBER THAT XPATHS USE BASE-1 INSTEAD OF BASE-0!!!
// Get the index for the current node by looping through the siblings.
$parentNode = $node->parentNode;
if( $parentNode != null ) {
$nodeIndex = 0;
do {
$testNode = $parentNode->childNodes->item( $nodeIndex );
$nodeName = $testNode->nodeName;
$nodeIndex++;
// PHP trickery! Here we create a counter based on the node
// name of the test node to use in the XPath.
if( !isset( $$nodeName ) ) $$nodeName = 1;
else $$nodeName++;
// Failsafe return value.
if( $nodeIndex > $parentNode->childNodes->length ) return( "/" );
} while( !$node->isSameNode( $testNode ) );
// Recursively get the XPath for the parent.
return( getNodeXPath( $parentNode ) . "/{$node->nodeName}[{$$nodeName}]" );
} else {
// Hit the root node! Note that the slash is added when
// building the XPath, so we return just an empty string.

Being an experienced ASP developer I was wondering how to replace textual content of a node (with msxml this is simply acheived by setting the 'text' property of a node). Out of frustration I started to play around with SimpleXml but I could not get it to work in combination with xPath.
I took me a lot of time to find out so I hope this helps others:
function replaceNodeText($objXml, $objNode, $strNewContent){
$objNodeListNested = &$objNode->childNodes;
foreach ( $objNodeListNested as $objNodeNested ){
if ($objNodeNested->nodeType == XML_TEXT_NODE)$objNode->removeChild ($objNodeNested);
}
$objNode->appendChild($objXml->createTextNode($strNewContent));
}
$objXml= new DOMDocument();
$objXml->loadXML('<root><node id="1">bla</note></root>');
$objXpath = new domxpath($objXml);
$strXpath="/root/node[@id='1']";
$objNodeList = $objXpath ->query($strXpath);
foreach ($objNodeList as $objNode){
//pass the node by reference
replaceNodeText($objXml, &$objNode, $strImportedValue);
}

Note that these DOM functions expect (and presumably return) all their data in UTF-8 character encoding, regardless of what PHP's current encoding is. This means that text nodes, attribute values etc, should be in utf8.
This applies even if you're generating an XML document which is not ultimately in utf8.

This module is not included by default either in the CentOS 4 "centosplus" repository. For those using PHP5 on CentOS 4, a simple "yum --enablerepo=centosplus install php-xml" will do the trick (this will install both the XML and DOM modules).

XML catalogs is something like cache. Download all needed dtd's to /etc/xml, edit file /etc/xml/catalog and add this line: <public publicId="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" uri="file:///etc/xml/xhtml1-strict.dtd" />

As of PHP 5.1, libxml options may be set using constants rather than the use of proprietary DomDocument properties.
DomDocument->resolveExternals is equivilant to setting
LIBXML_DTDLOAD
LIBXML_DTDATTR
DomDocument->validateOnParse is equivilant to setting
LIBXML_DTDLOAD
LIBXML_DTDVALID
PHP 5.1 users are encouraged to use the new constants.
Example:
DomDocument->load($file, LIBXML_DTDLOAD|LIBXML_DTDATTR);
DomDocument->load($file, LIBXML_DTDLOAD|LIBXML_DTDVALID);

When dealing with validation or loading, the output errors can be quite annoying.
PHP 5.1 introduces libxml_get_errors().

[Editor's Note: If you're using entities, then you have no choice. XML Catalogs can speed DTD resolution.]
Never use
$dom->resolveExternals=true;
when parsing XHTML document that has the DOCTYPE declaration with DTD URL specified in it.
Otherwise parsing the XHTML with DOCTYPE like this one:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
will result in PHP/DOM downloading the DTD file from W3C site when parsing your document. It will add extra delay to your script - I experienced that $dom->load()'s total time was from 1 to 16 seconds.

I wrote a framework to implement the StyleSheet interfaces as specified on the W3C website. The code is written in PHP, and is NOT a complete implementation. Use it how ya like. I was planning on adding the CSSStyleSheet interfaces as well. Feel free to ask.
<?php
class StyleSheetList {
public length;
private self;
function __construct ( ) {
$this->self = array();
}
function __get($property, $&ret) {
if($property == 'length')
$ret = count($this->self);
return true;
}
function __set($property, $val) {
if($property == 'length')
return true;
}
function item( $index ) {
return $this->self[$index];
}
}
class MediaList extends StyleSheetList {
function appendMedium ( $newMedium ) {
array_push($this->self, $newMedium);
}
function deleteMedium ( $oldMedium ) {
foreach($this->self as $item) {
if( $item == $oldMedium ) {
$item = $this->self[ $this->length-1 ];
array_pop($this->self);
break;
}
}
}
}
class DocumentStyle {
public styleSheets;
function __construct ( ) {
$this->styleSheets = new StyleSheetList();
}
function __set($property, $val) {
if($property == 'styleSheets')
return true;
}
}
class LinkStyle {
public sheet;
function __construct () {
$this->sheet = new StyleSheet();
}
function __set($property, $val) {
if($property == 'sheet')
return true;
}
}
class StyleSheet {
public type;
public disabled;
public ownerNode;
public parentStyleSheet;
public href;
public title;
public media;
function __construct( $type, $disabled, $ownerNode, $parentStyleSheet, $href, $title){
$this->type = $type;
$this->disabled = $disabled;
$this->media = new MediaList();
$this->ownerNode = $ownerNode;
$this->parentStyleSheet = $parentStyleSheet;
$this->href = $href;
$this->title = $title;
}
}
?>
