From the data returned by a query, I would like to generate an xml, but without saving it to the file and traversing the xml tags to treat the data in some way. I would like to know how to pass the xml to foreach without having this xml in file.

Suppose the generated xml is:

<disciplinas>
<disciplina id="1">
    <periodo>1</periodo>
    <nome>matematica</nome>
</disciplina>
<disciplina id="id_disciplina">
    <periodo>1</periodo>
    <nome>portugues</nome>
</disciplina>
<disciplina id="2">
    <periodo>1</periodo>
    <nome></nome>
</disciplina>
<disciplina id="3">
    <periodo>2</periodo>
    <nome>historia</nome>
</disciplina>
</disciplinas>

With xml, I want to check the data to generate a table with rowspan where the values of the "period" are repeated

insteadofatablewithoutrowspan.

Simple:

query

processes with laço ;

generates string XML

echo no header and no XML as document body

Example:

<?php

$test_array = array (
  'bla' => 'blub',
  'foo' => 'bar',
  'another_array' => array (
    'stack' => 'overflow',
  ),
);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<root/>');
array_walk_recursive($test_array, array ($xml, 'addChild'));
print $xml->asXML();

Result:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
  <blub>bla</blub>
  <bar>foo</bar>
  <overflow>stack</overflow>
</root>

Consider $test_array as the result of processing in step 2
