I created a function, which combines xml_paresr_create and all functions around.
<?php
function html_parse($file)
{
$array = str_split($file, 1);
$count = false;
$text = "";
$end = false;
foreach($array as $temp)
{
switch($temp)
{
case "<":
between($text);
$text = "";
$count = true;
$end = false;
break;
case ">":
if($end == true) {end_tag($text);}
else {start_tag($text);}
$text = "";
break;
case "/":
if($count == true) {$end = true;}
else {$text = $text . "/";}
break;
default:
$count = false;
$text = $text . $temp;
}
}
}
?>
The input value is a string.
It calls functions start_tag() , between() and end_tag() just like the original xml parser.
But it has a few differences:
- It does NOT check the code. Just resends values to that three functions, no matter, if they are right
- It works with parameters. For example: from tag <sth b="42"> sends sth b="42"
- It works wit diacritics. The original parser sometimes wrapped the text before the first diacritics appearance.
- Works with all encoding. If the input is UTF-8, the output will be UTF-8 too
- It works with strings. Not with file pointers.
- No "Reserved XML name" error
- No doctype needed
- It does not work with commentaries, notes, programming instructions etc. Just the tags
definition of the handling functions is:
<?php
function between($stuff) {}
?>
No other attributes
