Hi,
I have a small issue when trying to display the data from an XML file I pass through the magicparser. I have tested it out on the MagicParser demo page and all is fine, I then generate the PHP code and place the in a script. When I run the script from the server I do not display the data concerned. I know I am doing something wrong but for the life of me I can not see what. Many thanks for any help you can give.
The PHP file generated is;
require("/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/MagicParser.php");
function myRecordHandler($record)
{
// This is where you write your code to process each record, such as loading a database
// You can display the record contents using PHP's internal print_r() function:
print_r($record);
// The following code will print out each field in your sample data:
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-DEPARTUREAIRPORTTIMEZONEOFFSET"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-ARRIVALAIRPORTTIMEZONEOFFSET"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-ACTUALAIRCRAFTTYPE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-ARRIVALDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-CREATORCODE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-DEPARTUREDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-DEPARTURETERMINAL"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-FLIGHTHISTORYID"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-FLIGHTNUMBER"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-PUBLISHEDARRIVALDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-PUBLISHEDDEPARTUREDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-SCHEDULEDAIRCRAFTTYPE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-SCHEDULEDBLOCKTIME"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-SCHEDULEDGATEARRIVALDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-SCHEDULEDGATEDEPARTUREDATE"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-STATUS"];
print $record["FLIGHTHISTORY-STATUSCODE"];
print $record["AIRLINE"];
print $record["AIRLINE-AIRLINECODE"];
print $record["AIRLINE-IATACODE"];
print $record["AIRLINE-ICAOCODE"];
print $record["AIRLINE-NAME"];
print $record["ORIGIN"];
print $record["ORIGIN-AIRPORTCODE"];
print $record["ORIGIN-IATACODE"];
print $record["ORIGIN-ICAOCODE"];
print $record["ORIGIN-NAME"];
print $record["DESTINATION"];
print $record["DESTINATION-AIRPORTCODE"];
print $record["DESTINATION-IATACODE"];
print $record["DESTINATION-ICAOCODE"];
print $record["DESTINATION-NAME"];
}

Hi David,
Fixed.
$xml = file_get_contents("/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/xml/lhr_24_arrive.xml");
$xml = utf8_encode($xml); MagicParser_parse("string://".$xml,"myRecordHandler","xml|FLIGHTHISTORYGETRECORDSRESPONSE/FLIGHTHISTORY/");The above did the trick.
Its been stated many times on this forum that you do provide great support. It's a pity that some of the big IT companies don't take a leaf out of your book, such a great job.
Many, many thanks.

Hi Dereck,
I wonder if it is a permissions issue. Where you have the following code in your script:
MagicParser_parse("/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/xml/lhr_24_arrive.xml","myRecordHandler","xml|FLIGHTHISTORYGETRECORDSRESPONSE/FLIGHTHISTORY/");Try REPLACEing that with:
if (!MagicParser_parse("/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/xml/lhr_24_arrive.xml","myRecordHandler","xml|FLIGHTHISTORYGETRECORDSRESPONSE/FLIGHTHISTORY/")){
print MagicParser_getErrorMessage();
}
Assuming that no error message is displayed, the next thing I would suspect might be a character encoding error. In this case, REPLACE the above code with the following:
$xml = file_get_contents("/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/xml/lhr_24_arrive.xml");$xml = utf8_encode($xml); MagicParser_parse("string://".$xml,"myRecordHandler","xml|FLIGHTHISTORYGETRECORDSRESPONSE/FLIGHTHISTORY/");
What this will do is cleanse the data to valid UTF-8 which should do the trick...
Cheers,
David.
