I’m reading some XML with PHP and currently using the DOMDocument
class to do so. I need a way to grab the names and values of a tag’s (instance of DOMElement
) attributes, without knowing beforehand what any of them are. The documentation doesn’t seem to offer anything like this. I know that I can get an attribute’s value if I have its name, but again, I don’t know either of these and need to find both.
I also know that other classes like SimpleXMLElement
have this capability, but I’m interested in how it can be done with DOMDocument
.

You can get all the attributes of a given DomNode, using the DomNode->attributes property, it will return you DOMNamedNodeMap containing the attribute names and values.
foreach ($node->attributes as $attrName => $attrNode) { // ... }
