Example #2 DOMXPath::registerPHPFunctions() with php:functionString

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

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

// Register the php: namespace (required)
$xpath->registerNamespace("php""http://php.net/xpath");

// Register PHP functions (no restrictions)
$xpath->registerPHPFunctions();

// Call substr function on the book title
$nodes $xpath->query('//book[php:functionString("substr", title, 0, 3) = "PHP"]');

echo 
"Found {$nodes->length} books starting with 'PHP':\n";
foreach (
$nodes as $node) {
    
$title  $node->getElementsByTagName("title")->item(0)->nodeValue;
    
$author $node->getElementsByTagName("author")->item(0)->nodeValue;
    echo 
"$title by $author\n";
}

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

PHP Secrets by Jenny Smythe

Example #3 DOMXPath::registerPHPFunctions() with php:function

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

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

// Register the php: namespace (required)
$xpath->registerNamespace("php""http://php.net/xpath");

// Register PHP functions (has_multiple only)
$xpath->registerPHPFunctions("has_multiple");
 
function 
has_multiple($nodes) {
    
// Return true if more than one author
    
return count($nodes) > 1;
}
// Filter books with multiple authors
$books $xpath->query('//book[php:function("has_multiple", author)]');

echo 
"Books with multiple authors:\n";
foreach (
$books as $book) {
    echo 
$book->getElementsByTagName("title")->item(0)->nodeValue "\n";
}

?>

The above example will output something similar to:
