DYNTOXML

COMMAND SYNTAX

    DYNTOXML(array, xsl, result)

SYNTAX ELEMENTS

Convert the array to XML using the optimal xsl to transform

    XML = DYNTOXML(array, '', result)

Takes the contents of the dynamic array held in an array, and returns a generic XML representation of that array or an error

(result=0 OK; result<>0 Bad);

EXAMPLE

    a = "Tom" : @AM : "Dick" : @AM : "Harry"
    xml = DYNTOXML(a, '', result)
    CRT xml

SCREEN OUTPUT

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding ="ISO-8859-1"?>
     <array>
       <data attribute="1" value="1" subvalue="1">Tom</data>
       <data attribute="2" value="1" subvalue="1">Dick</data>
       <data attribute="3" value="1" subvalue="1">Harry</data>
     </array>

If a style sheet is passed in the second parameter, it performs a transform to give a different format of XML.

EXAMPLE

    xml = DYNTOXML(a, xsl, result)
    CRT xml

     <mycustomer>
