xmlReaderGetLocalName

SYNOPSIS

    string xmlReaderGetLocalName(xmlReader reader)

Parameters:

• reader - the xmlReader object

Returns:

• the local name of the current element or attribute

DESCRIPTION
xmlReaderGetLocalName() returns the local name of the current element or attribute, which is the name without any namespace prefix on it.

For example, calling xmlReaderGetLocalName() on the elements <item> and <myns:item> will both return item. It is useful for comparing things in a namespace-aware manner.

    <$localname = (xmlReaderGetLocalName($reader))>
