XMLDB

Table of Contents

Array
Node
Count

While doing a select or any operations into XMLDB, you'll have 3 possible values in return:

Array

A node can be figured as an array in this format:

Array => ('name' => 'item'),
	('attributes' => array('id'=>'1',
	                'name'=>'test')),
	('childs' => array('visibility'=>'true',
	                'x'=>'32'))

This array is equal to

<item id="1" name="test">
	<visibility>true</visibility>
	<x>32</x>
</item>

Node

It's actually a "DOMNode": http://www.php.net/manual/fr/class.domnode.php

It's mainly use for Data manipulation

We usually use Array for display or manual operation

Count

Not really of format, but operation with this $format will return an Integer.
