(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

DOMNodeList::item — Recupera um nó especificado pelo índice

Descrição

public DOMNodeList::item(int $index): DOMElement|DOMNode|DOMNameSpaceNode|null

Recupera um nó especificado pelo índice index dentro do objeto DOMNodeList.

Dica

Se for necessário saber o número de nós na coleção, use a propriedade length do objeto DOMNodeList.

Parâmetros

index: Índice do nó na coleção.

Valor Retornado

O nó na posição index na DOMNodeList, ou null se esse não for um índice válido.

Exemplos

Exemplo #1 Percorrendo todas as entradas da tabela

<?php

$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->load('book.xml');

$items = $doc->getElementsByTagName('entry');

for ($i = 0; $i < $items->length; $i++) {
    echo $items->item($i)->nodeValue . "\n";
}

?>

Exemplo #2 Acessando item com sintaxe de array

<?php

for ($i = 0; $i < $items->length; $i++) {
    echo $items[$i]->nodeValue . "\n";
}

?>

Exemplo #3 Navegando pelos itens com foreach

<?php

foreach ($items as $item) {
    echo $item->nodeValue . "\n";

SimpleXML has its own SPL iterator. See http://www.php.net/~helly/php/ext/spl/classSimpleXMLIterator.html . But I guess that there are none for DOM nodes. By the way, two out of three implementations I found over the Net were not recursive, so I wrote my own. Here is the snippet:

<?php

class DOMNodeListIterator implements RecursiveIterator
{
    private
        $nodes,
        $offset;

    function __construct(DOMNodeList $nodes)
    {
        return $this -> nodes = $nodes;
    }
    
    function rewind()
    {
        return $this -> offset = 0;
    }
    
    function current()
    {
        return $this -> nodes -> item($this -> offset);
    }

    function key()
    {
        return $this -> current() -> nodeName;
    }
    
    function next()
    {
        return $this -> offset++;
    }
    
    function valid()
    {
        return $this -> offset < $this -> nodes -> length;
    }
    
    function hasChildren()
    {
        return isset($this -> current() -> childNodes -> length) && $this -> current() -> childNodes -> length > 0;
    }
    
    function getChildren()
    {
        return new self($this -> current() -> childNodes);
    }
}

?>

Remember to use RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST flag when you create your iterator iterator.

<?php

$iterator = new DOMNodeListIterator($document -> childNodes);
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator($iterator, RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);

?>

Should work, has just few minutes though. :)

You could loop through the list backwards, that way, you are only ever taking off the last item from the list, and hence wont have disrupted the order.

calling domnodelist->item($i) with an index $i greater than domnodelist->length - 1 , will return the entire document, will not produce an error, and will not circle back to the start of the list.

DOMNodeList::item does not return in constant time!

If you need to iterate over large nodelist then you'd better use standard navigation.

Instead of:

<?php
foreach ($nodelist as $node) {
    // do something
}
?>

you could do:

<?php
$node = $parentnode->firstChild;

do {
    // do something
} while ($node = $node->nextSibling);
?>

DOMNodelist::item can return a DOMElement object, which extends DOMNode class. But it can also return a DOMText object.

<?php
$xml = '
<root>
  <node/>
  <node>
    <sub>more</sub>
  </node>
  <node>
    <sub>another</sub>
  </node>
  <node>value</node>
</root>
';

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML($xml);

$items = $doc->documentElement->childNodes;
for ($i = 0; $i < $items->length; $i++)
  echo get_class($items->item($i)).PHP_EOL;
?>

Results in this output:

DOMText
DOMElement
DOMText
DOMElement
DOMText
DOMElement
DOMText
DOMElement
DOMText

Keep in mind that DOMNodelists are "live" - changes to the document or node that the DOMNodelist was derived from will be reflected in the DOMNodelist. In other words, a list of a parent node's children will change if you change the parent's children!

It seems that with zend.ze1_compatibility_mode on, the only way to iterate over the items list is with :
for ($i = 0; $i < $nodeList->length; ++$i) {
    $nodeName = $nodeList->item($i)->nodeName;
    $nodeValue = $nodeList->item($i)->nodeValue;
}

As other attemps failed :

for ($i = 0; $i < $nodeList->length; ++$i) {
    $node = &$nodeList->item($i);
    $nodeName = $node->nodeName;
    $nodeValue = $node->nodeValue;
}

or :
foreach ($nodeList as $node) {
    echo $node->nodeName;
    echo $node->nodeValue;
}

I have had exactly this problem.

To rectify I've had to do this:
<?php
$old_element = $doc->getElementsByTagName('Element1')->item(0);
$new_element = $doc->createElement('NewElement1');

$old_element_childNodes = $old_element->childNodes;
$length = $old_element_childNodes->length;

for($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++)
{        
    $oldChildren_array[] = $old_element_childNodes->item($i);
}

foreach($oldChildren_array as $old_c)
{
    $new_element->appendChild($old_c);
}
?>

Rather than this:
(which I will bug report)
<?php
$old_element = $doc->getElementsByTagName('Element1')->item(0):
$new_element = $doc->createElement('NewElement1');

foreach($old_element->childNode as $node)
{
     $new_element->appendChild($node);
}

?>

Using the latter, randomally removes the children!

NodeList are something annoying because you can't output the content with a simple print_r, so I did a little function that add all the node to a new empty DOMDocument and output it as a string.
Have fun.

<?php

public function domNodeList_to_string($DomNodeList) {
    $output = '';
    $doc = new DOMDocument;
    while ( $node = $DomNodeList->item($i) ) {
        // import node
        $domNode = $doc->importNode($node, true);
        // append node
        $doc->appendChild($domNode);
        $i++;
    }
    $output = $doc->saveXML();
    $output = print_r($output, 1);
    // I added this because xml output and ajax do not like each others
    $output = htmlspecialchars($output);
    return $output;
}

?>
