PHP XML


Introduction to PHP XML Parser

The XML functions allow you to parse XML documents, but not validate them.

XML is a data format used for the exchange of standard structured documents. You can find more information about XML in our XML tutorial .

This extension uses the Expat XML parser.

Expat is an event-based parser that treats XML documents as a series of events. When an event occurs, it calls a specified function to handle it.

Expat is a validation-free parser that ignores any DTD linked to the document. However, if the document is not in good form, it will end up with an error message.

Because it is an event-based, validation-free parser, Expat is fast and suitable for web applications.

The XML parser function allows you to create an XML parser and define handlers for XML events.

Installation

The XML Parser function is an integral part of the PHP core. No installation is required to use these functions.
