Wants to add a condition to parser code

calle81

Hopefully someone can help me with this:

I want to add a condition to this parser so that it only shows games from 1 certain league.

The problem is that the league name is in the node above called "pool". Is there any way to solve this?

This is the script I have so far:

$dom = new DomDocument;
$dom->load('http://ads-cdn.unibet.com/orval/feed/uk/en/sportsBookCopy.xml');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$note = $dom->getElementsByTagName('event');

foreach ($note as $value) {

$name= $value -> getAttribute("name");
echo $name . '<br />';

$alt    = $value->getElementsByTagName('outcome');
$alt2    = $value->getElementsByTagName('price');

$length = $alt->length;
for ($index = 0; $index < $length; $index++) {

    $label = $alt->item($index)->attributes->getNamedItem('label')->nodeValue;
    $odds = $alt2->item($index)->attributes->getNamedItem('odds')->nodeValue;

    echo $label . ' : ' . $odds . '<br />';
}
echo '---------------' . '<br />';
}

hint: you don't have to output immediately, you can store the output in a variable and decide latter on your condition if you want to output or not.

Yes I understand that, but I don't even know how to extract the "league names" since it's not the "event" tag but it's in the "pool" tag above.

Here is an example: <pool id="1000093838" name="The Ashes - Series" main_group_id="1000093178">

"The Ashes - Series" is the leage name for the first group of games.

Another exmaple:
<pool id="1000093381" name="Champions League" main_group_id="1000093190">

"Champions League" is the league name for this group of games.

Never mind, I solved it!

Well I thought I sloved it, but now I noticed that each game display odds from all the other games aswell as it's own odds. The condition statement works though, so that's not the problem now.

Is it possible to run a for statement inside another for statement like I do?

This is the code


$dom = new DomDocument;
$dom->load('http://ads-cdn.unibet.com/orval/feed/uk/en/sportsBookCopy.xml');
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$note = $dom->getElementsByTagName('pool');

foreach ($note as $value) {

$league= $value -> getAttribute("name");
$leagueid= $value -> getAttribute("id");


 if ($leagueid==1000093381)
{
 echo $league . '<br />';

$event = $value->getElementsByTagName('event');
$length2 = $event->length;
for ($index2 = 0; $index2 < $length2; $index2++) {

$matchname = $event->item($index2)->attributes->getNamedItem('name')->nodeValue;

echo $matchname . '<br />';	


$alt    = $value->getElementsByTagName('outcome');
$alt2    = $value->getElementsByTagName('price');


$length = $alt->length;
for ($index = 0; $index < $length; $index++) {

    $label = $alt->item($index)->attributes->getNamedItem('label')->nodeValue;
    $odds = $alt2->item($index)->attributes->getNamedItem('odds')->nodeValue;


    echo $label . ' : ' . $odds . '<br />';
}
echo '---------------' . '<br />';
} } 
}
