For loop while parsing xml in php?

Image
By User



I am trying to create a for loop that will parse out different elements of xml doc using php. It parses when I put the number of the entry in the line:







$s = $xml->entry[0]->children($namespaces['s']);







However I tried to replace the number with "i" to count through each of the entries in the xml doc and I get an error (Fatal error: Call to a member function children() on a non-object in /home/content/c/a/s/cashme/html/buylooper/xml.php on line 10). How do I resolve this?







<?php

$url = 'xml-file.xml'; 

$xml = simplexml_load_file($url); 

$namespaces = $xml->entry->getNameSpaces(true); 



for ($i = 0; $i <= 10; $i += 1){



$s = $xml->entry[i]->children($namespaces['s']); 

$title = $s->product->title; 



//print 

echo $retailer;



}

?>

    You need to use $i, instead of i.

    As a side note:

    This bug should become very obvious on a development machine with:


    display_errors turned on, and
    error_reporting set to E_ALL (or even E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE)


    you would get a warning like Use of undefined constant i - assumed 'i'

    (unless you have defined i as a constant somewhere but that's an odd constant name)

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

By User
I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

By User
Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
