Search by XPath under a given element
Yes there is. The element is also part of the document, so you use the xpath object of the document, but when you run the query, there is a second parameter which is the context-node to which the query in the first parameter is resolved to:
// query all child-nodes of $domElement$result = $xpath->query('./*', $domElement);Resolved means, that if the xpath is:
- relative, it is relative to that
$domElementcontext-node. - absolute, it resolves to the document node (still/again).
Only relative path applies in context here, which is why I prefixed it with a dot in front: ./*. A simple * would work, too, just would not make this specifically visible.
See DOMXpath::query().
