# domxml_xmltree

(PHP 4 >= 4.2.1, PECL)

domxml_xmltree -- Creates a tree of PHP objects from an XML document

## Description

DomDocument domxml_xmltree ( string str )

The function parses the XML document in str and returns a tree PHP objects as the parsed document.

This function is isolated from the other functions, which means you cannot access the tree with any of the other functions. Modifying it, for example by adding nodes, makes no sense since there is currently no way to dump it as an XML file.

However this function may be valuable if you want to read a file and investigate the content.

## Parameters

str

  The contents of the XML file.

## Return Values

Returns a tree of Dom objects starting by a DomDocument.
