PHP :: Can PHP Parsing Xml Code ?

Help My Slow Parsing Code!
Here's my situation...I've been learning to write PHP for awhile and have been trying to rewrite my web site from plain old static pages to PHP versions. I've been learning based on what I want to do, put my links and articles in databases and allow comments and ratings.

I have a test page here:
URL

I've managed to write the PHP code to do just about everything I wanted, but it takes about 3+ seconds for the page to start to load (and it didn't when it was a static page). I know that this is because of my badly formed PHP no doubt. The routines do what I want, but there HAS to be a much more efficient way to get it done.

I'm going to post the code (stipped of font tags and error catching statements). Please advise the easiest way to streamline this code (and or SQL statements) in the best interest of the server processing time (any help would be great!):

<?php
//Start of routine for animation links
$usr = "user";
$pwd = "pw";
$db = "db";
$host = "host";

$cid = mysql_connect($host,$usr,$pwd);
?>

<?php
//We want the Animated Gif category
$category = "1";

$SQL = " SELECT * FROM links_temp";
$SQL = $SQL . " WHERE category = '$category'";
$retid = mysql_db_query($db, $SQL, $cid);

//Throw the links in an array - html table loop
print ("<center><table cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 width=100% border=1>
");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($retid)) {
$siteurl = $row["siteurl"];
$sitename = $row["sitename"];
$description = $row["description"];

//cocatenate together anigif_ with each item id for unique rating value
$id = "anigif_";
$id = $id . $row["id"];

print ("<tr><td width=100% valign=top>");

//Lets start the form here for the voting to elimate a line break later
print ("<form method="POST" action="/test/rating4.php" onsubmit="return genwin()" target="newwin">
");
print ("<A HREF='$siteurl' target=_blank>$sitename</A>");

//While in the while loop lets start another db connection to get item ratings
$usr3 = "user";
$pwd3 = "pw";
$db3 = "db";
$host3 = "host";

$cid3 = mysql_connect($host3,$usr3,$pwd3);

$SQL3 = " SELECT * FROM ratings_temp WHERE item = "$id"";

$result3 = mysql_db_query($db3,"$SQL3",$cid3);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows( $result3 );
if ($num_rows==0) { echo ("No Votes yet"); }
else {
print " $num_rows Votes, ";
$SQL4 = "SELECT AVG(value) AS avgRating FROM ratings_temp WHERE item = "$id"";
$result4 = mysql_db_query($db3,"$SQL4",$cid3);

print "Rating: " . mysql_result($result4,0) . "<br>";
}
mysql_close($cid3);
//end of the db connection for ratings

print ("$description<br>
");

print ("Vote for this Site!
");
print (" <select name="rating" size="1">
");
print (" <option value="5" selected>5 - Superb
");
print (" <option value="4">4 - Tasty
");
print (" <option value="3">3 - Average
");
print (" <option value="2">2 - Bland
");
print (" <option value="1">1 - Rotten
");
print (" </select>
");
print (" <input type="hidden" name="item_id" value="$id">
");
print (" <input type="submit" value="Vote">
");
print ("</form>
");
print ("</td></tr>
");
}
//end of the array subroutine making table rows

print("</table></center>");
//end of the table after the array ends
?>

Parsing PHP Code In MySQL Results Set?
I have a PHP script that pulls content from an MySQL database and returns a result set.

Is there a way I can put PHP code within a field in the database and have that code parsed as PHP code on returning a results set? If possible, I want just one field of the database parsed for PHP code. The results set is return as a straight result, not within a loop. Just inserting the <? PHP code thus ?> returns that as sources code not parsed.

Parsing String With Embedded PHP Code...
On my webserver right now, I have a folder of webpages with embedded PHP coding. Because the dynamic content changes very infrequently, I've written a script which generates a "static cache" of HTML pages from the PHP pages. It works by automatically looping through all PHP pages in the folder. For each, it reads the contents of the PHP file into a variable, then creates a new HTML page with the same name and writes the contents of the variable to it. After the process is complete, the cache of HTML files gets uploaded to the website for public viewing.

However, if the script reads the contents of the PHP pages through the local filesystem, the temporary variable (and thus the resulting static .html page) will have PHP code within it, which is obviously no good.

Therefore, at the moment, the script reads the contents of the PHP pages by opening an http connection to where they reside on the public webserver... this makes the contents of the temporary variable equivalent to the HTML that would be outputted when any user accessed the PHP page through the WWW, which is exactly what I want.

However... my problem is that the http connections are much slower than reading through the local filesystem, and moreover, I don't necessarily want the PHP pages to be publicly accessible through a webserver, which is currently required for the script to work. Is there any way that I can take a PHP string that has embedded PHP code and tell PHP to "parse the PHP out of it"?

XML Parsing - Newlines In The Code Disappaers
I have been trying to wrap my head arouns this, but I can't seem to get it to
work the way I want it to. Could someone helpful please tell me how I get this:

<function>
<name>array_push</name>
<examples>
<example>
<name>A way to do it</name>
<code>
$array = array("foo", "bar")
$array = array_push($array, "goo")
</code>
</example>
</examples>
</function>

To this:

array (
name -> array_push
examples -> array(
example -> array(
name -> A way to do it
code -> $array = array("foo", "bar")
$array = array_push($array, "goo")
)
)
)

My problems so far has been traversing the xml in a good way and:

1. After parsing, I am left with the code stripped of variables
'$array = array("foo", "bar")' becomes ' = array("foo", "bar")'

2. Newlines in the code disappaers, how do I make them stay?

Anyone feeling overly helpful and could give me an example to make the above
xml into the above array.

Old Code Vs New Code - Language Syntax Change?
I've recently begun programming PHP again and have found my old code doesn't work anymore. It's been a few years since my code was written, and simple functions don't seem to be working. I've done a bit of research into the syntax again and found the following;

I used to use a function as such;

if ($REQUEST_METHOD=="POST") {
Now I've seen alot of the syntax is
if ($_SERVER($REQUEST_METHOD=="POST")) {
And referencing variables from the form is as such;
$_POST['variable']

Where previously I could reference them in the simple form; $variable

Has there been a language syntax change that would cause my old code to be obsolete? Is there a configuration line that could be changed to allow this old code to work?

Xml Parsing With Php
I use PHP (and PHP socket functions) to exchange very short XML
documents between two Flash clients like this:

<MESSAGE id="myid" text="mytext" />

I don't parse the XML document within PHP but send back the XML document
made by the Flash client to another Flash client with a php socket and
Flash parse it with its own XML parser ...

In order to detect errors or non-XML data I do like this (in php):

switch (true){
case ( ereg("<", trim($XMLdata)) ):
print 'xmldata'
break;
default:
print 'no xmldata'
}

(I must do this because Flash sends an empty "heartbeat" every 5
seconds, which is not XML data)

Now, I need to interpret my XML document inside php cause I want to make
php execute some commands when it receives a certain type of XML element.

XML data that can be sent from Flash :

<MESSAGE id="myid" text="mytext" /> or
<COMMAND1 /> or
<COMMAND2 /> or
or an empty string "" .

(in php) I can do :

switch (true){
case ( ereg("<MESSAGE", trim($XMLdata)) ):
print 'xmldata is a txt message'
break;
case ( ereg("<COMMAND1", trim($XMLdata)) ):
print 'xmldata is a command1'
break;
case ( ereg("<COMMAND2", trim($XMLdata)) ):
print 'xmldata is a command2'
break;
default:
print 'no xmldata'
}

But what I'm wondering is whether it is the good way to proceed,
wouldn't it be faster to parse the xml document within php with Expat
library included when it receives a document "<COMMAND idcom="1" />" and
interpret "idcom" value instead of doing an "ereg("<COMMAND1",
trim($XMLdata))?

Parsing An XML (same TAG Name)
I am stuck processing an XML file. The problem I am having, is I have the
same TAG name - Url - at the same depth, so the value from the last Url read
in is what get saved. I have tried every option I can think of to put each
URL tag into its own variable, without any luck.

I removed portions of the code that does not affect the outcome (for a
smaller post).
Here's a snippet of the XML, and when the code (below) runs, no matter what,
the value of $items[$itemcount]['url'] is always
/TiVoVideoDetails?id=465887.

- <CustomIcon>
<Url>urn:tivo:image:save-until-i-delete-recording</Url>
<ContentType>image/*</ContentType>
<AcceptsParams>No</AcceptsParams>
</CustomIcon>
- <TiVoVideoDetails>
<Url>/TiVoVideoDetails?id=465887</Url>
<ContentType>text/xml</ContentType>
<AcceptsParams>No</AcceptsParams>
</TiVoVideoDetails>

PHP code:
<?php
class Tivo_XML {
var $dvr;
function parseTiVoXML()
{
global $items;
$this->parser = xml_parser_create();
xml_set_object($this->parser, &$this);
xml_parser_set_option($this->parser, XML_OPTION_CASE_FOLDING, false);
xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, "_tivostart_element",
"_tivoend_element");
xml_set_character_data_handler($this->parser, "_tivodata");
$file = $this->dvr . "_nowplaying.xml";
$tivoxmlstr = file_get_contents ($file);
$tivoxmlstr = str_replace("&", "%amp;%", $tivoxmlstr);
xml_parse($this->parser, $tivoxmlstr , true) or
die (sprintf("XML Error: %s at line %d",
xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($this->parser)),
xml_get_current_line_number($this->parser)));
xml_parser_free($this->parser);

Parsing XML With PHP - Not DOM XML
I am not really sure how to parse files with PHP XML other than DOM
XML. Unfortunetely, I have run into a few problems with size and was
told that for the type of parsing I am doing I would be better using
event driven parsing like SAX.

Below I have a simple example of XML similar (although much much
smaller) to the one I am using for real.

XML:

<?xml...
<root>
<name age="25">Martyn</name>
<name age="24">Neil</name>
<name age="24">Robbie</name>
</root>

All I want to do is to output them as:

Martyn (25)
Neil (24)
Robbie (24)

How would I do this uisng something like SAX / EXPAT? I found tutorials
but didnt really understand them enough to know if I was looking up the
correct thing.

Parsing XML...
I'm writing a class to consume NOAA's weather forecast web service. Issuing the query and receiving the result is easyÃ¢â‚¬â€it takes two lines of code.

Parsing the result, however, is hard. I've been playing with PHP's built-in XML-parsing functions, but as far as I can tell, none of them can automatically translate a chunk of XML into a nice, neat tree of associative arrays (or something comparably easy to navigate). xml_parse() is really just a lexical analyzer, not a parser, and xml_parse_into_struct() generates an obnoxious parallel array structure.

I generate XML from a variety of sources and sometimes get funky charecters, bad tag names, and empty tags "<></>" and other wierd stuff.

Is there a simple way to check a large xml file (1000k-100,000) before I run my parser on it.

Also, when the built in XML parser hits one of these errors in the it just exits with out returning any usefull error. I could post the code if any one would like to see it, but it is very complicated and poorly documented.

They parsed the file you requested and put some nice formatting around all occurences of your querystring.

I would like to apply it different, more in a sense of:
you enter a URL in the address bar, and this file is parsed before it is shown to you.
An application would be:all e-mail addresses inside the file are replaced by mailto:hyperlinksall static hyperlinks inside the file are replaced by real hyperlinks etc.

A normal php-file at my site looks like:

- php-include (html: header)
- text: html formatted
- php-include (html: footer)

How can I achieve that when this file is loaded all occurences of some kind (stored in an array containing all needles) are handled in some way to show appropriate hyperlink-formatting before it is presented to the user.
(much like a dictionary: words in the text can be references and are explained elsewhere).

It is required that the text stays the same and the file can be loaded stand-alone (without querystrings).
