xpath php attributes not working?
- by Jared
Getting this error Call to a member function attributes() on a non-object
I have found multiple answers to this on SO, but none of them seem to solve my problem?
Here is the XML:
<Routes>
<Route type="source" name="incoming">
</Route>
<Routes>
Here is the PHP:
$doc = new SimpleXMLElement('routingConfig.xml', null, true);
class traverseXML {
function getData() {
global $doc;
$routeCount = count($doc -> xpath("Route")); //this value returns correctly
$routeArr = array();
for ($i = 1; $i <= $routeCount; $i++) {
$name = $doc -> Route[$i] -> attributes() -> name;
array_push($routeArr, $name);
}
return $routeArr;
}
}
$traverseXML = new traverseXML;
var_dump($traverseXML -> getData());
I understand what the error means, but how is it a non-object? How do I return the name attribute of Routes/Route[1] ?
