PHP comes built in support for parsing XML documents with James Clark Expat parser and also GNOME DOM XML parser. I used Expat support for bulding this generic parser class that puts all tags and data in a single associative array indexed by they path name encoded in a single string. http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html/package/4 In the same site you may also find many other classes for processing and generating XML: http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html/class/4 If you came from the Java world, you will appreciate the whole site because it is a repository from OOP classes of objects written in PHP: http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html And also this mailing list that is meant for discussing OOP in PHP. It was started just a few days ago, but it already has almost 200 subscribers. Here you may find answers for you OOP with PHP questions. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/php-objects/ Regards, Manuel Lemos -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
