我正在尝试计算一个节点在我的 xml 中出现的次数并将此数字存储在一个变量中:

<?php 

$xmlStr = file_get_contents('books.xml'); 
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlStr); 

$res = $xml->xpath("count(catalog/book)");
print_r($res); 

?>

XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

以下将在屏幕上打印出一系列书籍:

<?php 

$xmlStr = file_get_contents('books.xml'); 
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlStr); 

$res = $xml->xpath("/catalog/book");
print_r($res); 

?>

我只是想不通为什么计数函数不起作用。

最佳答案

很遗憾，SimpleXML 不支持任何不返回节点集 的 XPath 查询。考虑在结果数组上使用 count()。

关于php - 如何在PHP中使用Xpath的计数功能？，我们在Stack Overflow上找到一个类似的问题： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14954766/
