SimpleXMLElement::children

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

SimpleXMLElement::children — Finds children of given node

说明

public SimpleXMLElement::children(?string $namespaceOrPrefix = null, bool $isPrefix = false): ?SimpleXMLElement

This method finds the children of an element. The result follows normal iteration rules.

注意: SimpleXML 建起了一个给大多数方法添加迭代属性的规则。不能通过使用 var_dump() 或任何可检查对象的其它东西来查看。

参数

namespaceOrPrefix

An XML namespace.

isPrefix

If isPrefix is true, namespaceOrPrefix will be regarded as a prefix. If false, namespaceOrPrefix will be regarded as a namespace URL.

返回值

Returns a SimpleXMLElement element, whether the node has children or not, unless the node represents an attribute, in which case null is returned.

范例

示例 #1 Traversing a children() pseudo-array

<?php
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement(
'<person>
 <child role="son">
  <child role="daughter"/>
 </child>
 <child role="daughter">
  <child role="son">
   <child role="son"/>
  </child>
 </child>
</person>');

foreach ($xml->children() as $second_gen) {
    echo ' The person begot a ' . $second_gen['role'];

    foreach ($second_gen->children() as $third_gen) {
        echo ' who begot a ' . $third_gen['role'] . ';';

        foreach ($third_gen->children() as $fourth_gen) {
            echo ' and that ' . $third_gen['role'] .
                ' begot a ' . $fourth_gen['role'];
        }
    }
}
?>

以上例程会输出：

The person begot a son who begot a daughter; The person
begot a daughter who begot a son; and that son begot a son

示例 #2 Using namespaces

<?php
$xml = '<example xmlns:foo="my.foo.urn">
  <foo:a>Apple</foo:a>
  <foo:b>Banana</foo:b>
  <c>Cherry</c>
</example>';

$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);

$kids = $sxe->children('foo');
var_dump(count($kids));

$kids = $sxe->children('foo', TRUE);
var_dump(count($kids));

$kids = $sxe->children('my.foo.urn');
var_dump(count($kids));

$kids = $sxe->children('my.foo.urn', TRUE);
var_dump(count($kids));

$kids = $sxe->children();
var_dump(count($kids));
?> 
int(0)
int(2)
int(2)
int(0)
int(1)
