$bookElements=$books->getElementsByTagName('book');

echo $book->attributes->item(1)->nodeValue;

还可以通过强大的xpath查询

foreach($bookElements as $book){
        foreach ($book->attributes as $attr) {
            #$book->setAttribute($attr->nodeName,strtoupper($attr->nodeValue));
            $attr->nodeValue=strtoupper($attr->nodeValue);
        }
        echo "AUTHOR: ";
        foreach ($book->getElementsByTagName('author') as $author) {
            $author->nodeValue=strtoupper($author->nodeValue);
        }
    }
    $books->save($path);

$book->setAttribute($attr->nodeName,strtoupper($attr->nodeValue));
$attr->nodeValue=strtoupper($attr->nodeValue);

$newBook=$books->createElement('book'); #创建新元素
    $newBook->setAttribute('name','PHP Objects, Patterns, and Practice');#创建新属性，方法一
    $publisher=$books->createAttribute('publisher');#创建新属性，方法二
    $publisher->nodeValue='Apress L.P';
    $newBook->appendChild($publisher); #把属性添加到元素上
    $author=$books->createElement('author');#创建子元素
    $author->nodeValue='Matt Zandstra';
    $newBook->appendChild($author);#把子元素添加到父元素上
    $books->documentElement->appendChild($newBook);#添加整个节点
    $books->save($path);

$first=$bookElements->item(0);
    $first->removeAttribute('publisher');
    $second=$bookElements->item(1);
    $second->parentNode->removeChild($second);
    $books->save($path);
