Xml And Php

This is a clear, concise guide to the synergies between XML and PHP, many of which are not immediately visible to intermediate developers. The book demonstrates how PHP and XML can be combined to build cutting-edge Web applications. It includes detailed explanations of PHP's XML extensions, together with illustrations of using PHP to parse, validate and transform XML markup.

Author Rob Richards is a major contributor to the PHP XML codebase and is considered a leading expert on the topic in the PHP community Covers the most leading-edge branch of PHP—currently 5.1 Practical, real-world examples with the Amazon, eBay, Yahoo, and Google web services APIs

An introductory textbook on Javascript designed for students in Web Development programs at career focused 2 and 4 year schools who have taken a course in XHTML. The book focuses on the 'how-to' aspects of Javascript for non-computer science students, with a focus on enhancing and extending websites.

eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is well known in the wired world as a format for storing arbitrary, structured data. It has two major advantages: its an incredibly flexible format, and it is human readable. With clear explanations, lots of examples, and the occasional witticism, _XML Parsing with PHP_ provides a tour of three new XML libraries introduced in PHP 5. Where the online documentation stops, _XML Parsing with PHP_ fills in the gaps and clears up the fog.The book opens by covering basic XML terminology and the handful of rules that govern XML's format. After a brief introduction to XPath, it dives right into reading and writing XML with the new libraries.PHP 5 dramatically expands PHP's offerings with the DOM library, which provides Javascript-like methods for accessing XML's structure, the SimpleXML library which, true to its name, provides simple methods for accessing simple XML documents, and the companion libraries of XMLReader and XMLWriter, which are PHP's implementation of the newer StAX approach to parsing. Each library is covered with both a basic and advanced chapter that are packed with examples.Finally, the guide gives an overview of several practical ways XML is used in the real world, and how to apply PHP to those common scenarios. Readers will learn about the different methods to validate XML documents against external standards.

This new book on PHP 7 introduces writing solid, secure, object-oriented code in the new PHP 7: you will create a complete three-tier application using a natural process of building and testing modules within each tier. This practical approach teaches you about app development and introduces PHP features when they are actually needed rather than providing you with abstract theory and contrived examples. In Learn PHP 7, programming examples take advantage of the newest PHP features, including enhanced password encryption using password_hash. This book takes a learn-by-doing approach, providing you with complete coding examples. "Do It" exercises in each chapter provide the opportunity to make adjustments to the example code. The end of chapter programming exercises allow you to develop your own applications using the algorithms demonstrated in the chapter. Each tier is logically and physically separated using object-oriented and dependency injection techniques, thus allowing independent tiers that can be updated with little or no effect on the other tiers. In addition to teaching good programming practices through OOP, there is a strong emphasis on creating secure code. As each chapter is completed, the reader is provide the opportunity to design and create an application reinforcing the concepts learned.

Early versions of PHP provided extensions for working with XML, but it wasn't until the introduction of SimpleXML, DOM, XMLReader, and XMLWriter in PHP 5 that working with XML was streamlined. _XML Parsing with PHP_, edited and produced by php[architect], provides a comprehensive survey of the classes and functionality available for working with XML. This edition covers parsing and validating XML documents, leveraging XPath expressions, and working with namespaces as well as how to create and modify XML files programmatically. Each chapter contains examples illustrating how to use the different XML extensions at your disposal.
