Re: AW: appendChild() something I fail to understand

[Luc Saint-E. <lu...@sa...>]

Hello,

Still in my "lets's learn toproduce xml files process", my problem is 
solved (thanks Jan) with attributes but now I fail when I want to ad nodes.

The goal now is to ad a new message in the messages.xml file.
a message is of the form :

<liste>
  <message>
      <is_read>no</is_read>
      <texte>text of the message</texte>
      <expediteur>username_of_the_sender</expediteur>
      <destinataire>usernameof the destination</destinataire>
      <date>1011272580</date>
</message>
</liste>

With the following bit of code the entry is done, but a lot of errors are 
sent like :
***************
XPath error in XPath.class.php:4659
The /liste[1]/message[4]/is_read[1] does not have a text node at position 0
XPath error in XPath.class.php:4659
The /liste[1]/message[4]/texte[1] does not have a text node at position 0
XPath error in XPath.class.php:4659
The /liste[1]/message[4]/expediteur[1] does not have a text node at position 0
XPath error in XPath.class.php:4659
The /liste[1]/message[4]/destinataire[1] does not have a text node at 
position 0
XPath error in XPath.class.php:4659
The /liste[1]/message[4]/date[1] does not have a text node at position 0
****************

here is my code

case 'newmsgs' :$xPath->reset();
                         $xPath->importFromFile('xml_files/messages.xml');
                         $newchild=$xPath->appendChild('/liste[1]', 'message');
					
                         $newchild1=$xPath->appendChild($newchild, 'is_read');
                         $xPath->insertData($newchild1, 'no');
					
                         $newchild2=$xPath->appendChild($newchild, 'texte');
                         $xPath->insertData($newchild2, $texte);
					
                         $newchild3=$xPath->appendChild($newchild, 
'expediteur');
                         $xPath->insertData($newchild3, $expediteur);
					
                         $newchild4=$xPath->appendChild($newchild, 
'destinataire');
                         $xPath->insertData($newchild4, $destinataire);
					
                         $newchild5=$xPath->appendChild($newchild, 'date');
                         $xPath->insertData($newchild5, time());
					
                         $xPath->exportToFile('xml_files/messages.xml','','<?xml 
version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"'.'?'.'>');

Thanks in advance (and tons of excuses for my dummy questions)
