[basic_mind]

how do i edit a node using dom?

like if I wanted to edit total hits in statbox xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<statbox title="demo">
<hitbox note="overall_hit_counter">
<totalhits>13</totalhits>
</hitbox>
</statbox>

What PHP version are you using?

This will work PHP 5

$dom = new domDocument();
$dom->Load('file');
$dom->getElementsByTagName('totalhits')->item(0)->nodeValue = 14;

And a PHP 4 work around using DOM XML

$dom = domxml_open_file('file');
$replaceValue = $dom->create_text_node('14');
$totalHits = $dom->get_elements_by_tagname('totalhits');
$totalHits = $totalHits[0];
$totalHits->replace_child($replaceValue, $totalHits->first_child());
echo htmlentities($dom->dump_mem(true));
