DOMDocument::getElementById

(PHP 5, PHP 7)

DOMDocument::getElementById — Searches for an element with a certain id

Beschreibung

public DOMDocument::getElementById ( string $elementId ) : DOMElement

This function is similar to DOMDocument::getElementsByTagName but searches for an element with a given id.

For this function to work, you will need either to set some ID attributes with DOMElement::setIdAttribute or a DTD which defines an attribute to be of type ID. In the later case, you will need to validate your document with DOMDocument::validate or DOMDocument::$validateOnParse before using this function.

Parameter-Liste

elementId

The unique id value for an element.

Rückgabewerte

Returns the DOMElement or NULL if the element is not found.
