Check if Child node exists and get parent node in xml

Wednesday, November 4, 2015

I have loaded a xml file and I want a specific node when a child node exists.



For example: if the supplierItem->supplier->id is "0101" I want to get the stock "1" out of this specific supplierItem. So I need the parent stock node of the specific supplier id.



My xml looks something like this



<product>
<supplierItem>
<id>0001</id>
<supplier>
<id>0101</id>
<name>Company_1</name>
</supplier>
<supplierItemId>Product_1_ID</supplierItemId>
<productName>Product_1</productName>
<stock>1</stock>
</supplierItem>
<id>0002</id>
<supplier>
<id>0202</id>
<name>Company_2</name>
</supplier>
<supplierItemId>Product_1_ID</supplierItemId>
<productName>Product_1</productName>
<stock>2</stock>
</supplierItem>
<id>0003</id>
<supplier>
<id>0303</id>
<name>Company_3</name>
</supplier>
<supplierItemId>Product_1_ID</supplierItemId>
<productName>Product_1</productName>
<stock>3</stock>
</supplierItem>
</product>


My first attemp were:



 $stocks = $xml->xpath("/product/supplierItem");
foreach ($stocks as $stock)
{
echo($stock); // get all stocks
}


Any idea? I stuck with it...
Thanks in advance
