POmy app is sending an XML file to a server: need some guidance on writing a PHP script to parse the XML file
text
Body
copied!<p>So my iPhone app sends a shopping cart in a XML file to a URL through POST. Here is the line of code that does that</p> <pre><code>NSString *pathToSerializedCart = [rootPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"serializedCart.plist"]; NSString *shoppingCartString; NSData *serializedData; if (![fileManager fileExistsAtPath:pathToSerializedCart]) { NSLog(@"ERROR:\nCouldnt find serialized cart in documents folder."); return; } serializedData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:pathToSerializedCart]; shoppingCartString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:serializedData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSLog(@"%@", shoppingCartString); [shoppingCartString release]; //========================================================================== NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:nil error:nil]; NSString *returnString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:returnData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSLog(@"%@",returnString); [returnString release]; </code></pre> <p>Now what Id like to do is put a script on the server in the file <code>welcome.php</code> so that the contents of this XML file are echoed to the browser.</p> <p>I've looked at many examples but they all talk about the situation where the XML file is present in the same directory as the PHP file on the server. I haven't been able to find examples of PHP code that actually is evoked from an app.</p> <p>Could someone please point me to the right direction.</p> <p>Thanks</p>
