Programatically fetch links/images with PHP

Hi all,

In an extension I'm developing I need to fetch URL's and relplace the links in the XML-output generated by the online editor:

<linktarget="_self"url_id="9">Very boring link</link>

needs to get into:

<a href="http://my.link.com">Very boring link</a>

How can I programatically do this (with PHP)?

And then I need to do the same for images..

Hi Felix,

not sure which parts you are looking for. Assuming that you already know how to parse the XML you have you can fetch the URL by id (if it's eZ publish URL's you have) like this:

       $href = eZURL::url( $linkID );

Then you can just print the href and the text to make up the URL.

Hi Bård,

Thnak you for your answer!

This is what I need. Only problem is the I get the error <i>Undefined class name 'ezurl' </i> when I try to use it. I guess it has something to do with initiating.. a topic I don't know to much about..

Hi again,

Got it! Just put:

include_once( "kernel/classes/ezurltype.php" );

at the top of my file.

Thanks for helping!
