Hey, Is there any place the updated SimpleXML, DOM, XSL extensions are documented? I don't think they are in the PHP manual. This is crucial to get the word out because I've gotten quite a few queries from people who don't know about the new XML features. Andi

My slides from my talk about XML in PHP5 are here: http://slides.bitflux.ch/phpconf2003/ examples are here http://slides.bitflux.ch/phpconf2003/examples/ And Sebastian's slides (in german) are here: http://www.sebastian-bergmann.de/blog/ maybe that helps for a start in really documentating it chregu On 11/6/03 9:17 AM, Andi Gutmans wrote:

I've also done a touch of slides on it, as has Sterling, and maybe even someone else, at talks.php.net. Nothing terribly in-depth. Shane Christian Stocker wrote:

As one of PHP 5's main improvements is XML how about making a small section on php.net dedicated to it? I mean the manual is of course a must but I think it'd be nice to give it some more exposure. Maybe a first step would to be slides and stuff you guys wrote up there? Andi At 10:06 AM 11/6/2003 -0800, Shane Caraveo wrote:

I wonder if there is some way to transform the w3c dom documentation. That would be a quick-n-dirty way to get the documentation for the dom extension into php.net docs. Then it could be updated to be more php-ish, and examples could be pulled from the various talk slides. Shane Andi Gutmans wrote:

i wrote an xslt stylesheet for translating the w3c document to c-empty-extension code in ext/dom (I didn't copy/paste all those links/protos into the source code ;) ). So maybe I could just extend that and make it output php-doc-docbook-xml. Just don't ask me when I can do that. Anyway, if anyone else likes to do that, here's the xslt -> http://cvs.bitflux.ch/chora/co.php/domxml-ng/dom2phpdoc.xsl?login=2&r=1.4 chregu
