XSL transformation in PHP

**robgallen** · 12th October 2005, 05:02 PM

I was wondering what type of XSL transformation is available - XSL, DOM, PCRE? I'm quite new to PHP, but I've got the XSL method figured out. However I've got a sneaky suspicion that this isn't enabled on the live servers. Here's the code I'm using:

PHP Code:


function TransformXml($xml_file, $xsl_file, $params)
{
    $xp = new XsltProcessor();
    // create a DOM document and load the XSL stylesheet
    $xsl = new DomDocument;
    $xsl->load($xsl_file);
    
    // import the XSL stylesheet into the XSLT process
    $xp->importStylesheet($xsl);
    
    // create a DOM document and load the XML data
    $xml_doc = new DomDocument;
    $xml_doc->load($xml_file);
    
    // add parameters
    $namespace = '';
    if ($params) {
        foreach ($params as $param => $value) {
            $xp->setParameter($namespace, $param, $value);
        }
    }
    
    // transform the XML into HTML using the XSL file
    if ($html = $xp->transformToXML($xml_doc)) {
        return $html;
    } else {
        trigger_error('XSL transformation failed.', E_USER_ERROR);
    }
}

But this is the error I get:
Fatal error: Class 'XsltProcessor' not found

I've been looking through some phpinfo() on the live server, and comparing that to my dev server, and I reckon I'm missing this section:

xsl
XSL enabled
libxslt Version 1.1.12
libxslt compiled against libxml Version 2.6.17
EXSLT enabled
libexslt Version 1.1.12

Any advice? How else can I do some reasonably easy xml/xsl => html transformations?
