PHP and DOM

[Julius Mong]

Dear all, I've just installed PHP4 manual install using ISAPI and enabled
the DOM XML module. However when I tried the code below (or any DOM example
I found on google) I will only get a blank HTML page showing head, body,
meta, and that's all... no errors or anything given on the server/client at
all... any ideas? I'm running IIS 5.1 on XP

Thanks,

Jules

<vegetable color='green'>cabbages</vegetable>,
<vegetable color='red'>tomatoes</vegetable>,
<fruit color='green'>apples</fruit>,
<vegetable color='purple'>aubergines</vegetable>,
<fruit color='yellow'>bananas</fruit>

// create a DOM object from the XML data
if(!$doc = xmldoc($xml_string))
{
die("Error parsing XML");
}

// start at the root
$root = $doc->root();

// move down one level to the root's children
$children = $root->children();

// iterate through the list of children
foreach ($children as $child)
{
// if <vegetable> element
if ($child->tagname == "vegetable")
{
// go down one more level
// get the text node
$text = $child->children();
// print the content of the text node
echo "Found: " . $text[0]->content . "<br>";
}
}

Hi, Julius,
The only thing I know is that DOM produces empty (but well made) XML blocs.
For the rest try to get documentation sources concerned on DOM and XML.
