DOMNodelist::item — Retrieves a node specified by index
Retrieves a node specified by index within the DOMNodeList object.
If you need to know the number of nodes in the collection, use the length property of the DOMNodeList object.
Index of the node into the collection.
The node at the indexth position in the DOMNodeList, or NULL if that is not a valid index.
Beispiel #1 Traversing all the entries of the table
<?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";
}
?>
Alternatively, you can use foreach, which is a much more convenient way:
<?php
foreach ($items as $item) {
echo $item->nodeValue . "\n";
}
?>

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 = $node->nextSibling);
?>
It seems that with zend.ze1_compatibility_mode on, the only way to iterate over the items list is with :
for ($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;
}
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. :)
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!

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!

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.
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;
}
?>
Be careful when looping through a DOMNodeList and moving its nodes around, sometimes this will take that node off the DOMNodeList and sometimes it wont!
<?php
// let $nodes be node list and $parent be some other node
foreach($nodes as $node) {
$parent->appendChild($node);
}
?>
In some cases the $node will be taken off the list and the next iteration of the loop will be corrupted, skipping every other node in the list! In other cases the node will remain in the list and everything will be fine.
Generally if you've created the node list using a getElementsByTagName call or an XPath query then the nodes will stay on the list. If the node list comes from another nodes' childNodes property those child nodes will be shifted off the list whenever you call appendChild.
