Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-15 00:33:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-06 07:14:06] matt dot bevan at marginsoftware dot com I am also in the position where I need to be able to create and insert a SimpleXMLElement before or after an arbitrary SimpleXMLElement, then remove the previous instance. This is to move XML elements from one location in an XML file into another. I'll likely be switching to/from a DOM object to accomplish this, however. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-19 17:40:18] phpbugs at ilibi dot com Either the documentation for simplexml should be clarified about exactly what can and can not be added/ edited. Or the ability to add nodes should be added to simplexml. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-08 01:18:36] cyberlot at cyberlot dot net Confirming this bug exists, Have the same problem, I need to add to a simplexml object on the fly and can't ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-28 13:22:59] php at peterrobins dot co dot uk Description: ------------ According to the manual page, you can add a node with SimpleXML, but this does not seem to work, either as $xml->movie[0]->characters[0]->character[0]->age = '21'; nor as $xml->movie[0]->rating[2] = 'not bad'; Deletion works on attributes unset($xml->movie[0]->rating[1]['type']); but at node level, deletes all unset($xml->movie[0]->rating); This is inconsistent with reading where $xml->movie[0]->rating fetches the first node only. unset($xml->movie->rating); deletes all ratings for the 1st movie only. It does not appear possible to delete just 1 node unset($xml->movie[0]->rating[1]); Because objs are now refs not copies, can do this $rat = $xml->movie[0]->rating[0]; $rat['name'] = 'judge'; but not this $rat = 'new content'; nor this $rat->child[0] = 'new rating'; and if I try and do $rat->child = 'new rating'; I get 'Attempt to assign property of non-object' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29426&edit=1
