(no version information, might be only in CVS)

DomXsltStylesheet->result_dump_file --  Dumps the result from a XSLT-Transformation into a file

Description

string DomXsltStylesheet->result_dump_file ( domdocument DomDocument, string filename)

Warning

This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the name of this function, and anything else documented about this function may change without notice in a future release of PHP. Use this function at your own risk.

This function is only available since PHP 4.3

Since DomXsltStylesheet->process() always returns a well-formed XML DomDocument, no matter what output method was declared in <xsl:output> and similar attributes/elements, it's of not much use, if you want to output HTML 4 or text data. This function on the contrary honors <xsl:output method="html|text"> and other output control directives. See the example for instruction of how to use it.

Example 1. Saving the result of a XSLT transformation in a file

<?php
$filename = "stylesheet.xsl";
$xmldoc = domxml_open_file("data.xml");
$xsldoc = domxml_xslt_stylesheet_file($filename);
$result =  $xsldoc->process($xmldoc);
echo $xsldoc->result_dump_file($result, "filename");     
?>
