I thought its about time I started a blog. The main reason is I need somewhere to keep track of my code notes, and typing it out helps me remember better. If you do happen by, feel free to use any code you find.
I have been scripting a lot of PHP and HTML lately and have been wanting the Object Oriented Functions within PHP to be available for the HTML I have been writing so I came up with this.
<?php
/**
* Description of HTML
* -- OO-HTML --
* @author Joseph Tveter
*
* Class to allow HTML to be eaisly written in native php
* It will also work for building xml
*
* The $cmd string is the tag command such as a,div,html
*
* The $vals array holds a list of value commands for the html tag
*
* The $children array holds a list of children of the tag. They will be placed in decending order, so a tag at [1] will come before a tag at [2]
*
* To print the string call HTML();
* example:
*
* $mydiv = new HTML('div');
* $mydiv->addValue('name', 'mydiv');
* $mydiv->addChild('Hello World', '1');
* echo $mydiv->HTML();
*
* <div name='mydiv'>
* Hello World
* </div>
*
*
* I added some functions to make it a bit more like actionscript but you can also manipulate the tag arrays directly.
*
