Hi everybody,

I need to build a custom module who will import XML objects into the Exponential tree.

I work a long time with the simpleXML PHP API, and I would like to use it into my module.

So my questions are : can I use simpleXML into a 3.9 module, and did this article : http://ez.no/Exponential/documentation/development/extensions/building_an_ez_publish_module is still good for building 3.9 modules ?

Thanks in advance !

Hello,

<i>"The SimpleXML extension requires PHP 5."</i> So ... while one could use the PHP5 Port of 3.9, it seems the answer for most is not right now.

That's a pretty good example of how to build a module, most of that content looks valid and useful.

Cheers,
Heath

Hi,

Effectively, I can't build it with simpleXML because I can't use the PHP5 port...

I knew the xmlimport extension and perhaps I will inspire me about it.

thank you for your answers !
