//function to pull first found persons ID out of the xml
function find_ID ($result = ""){
// goto person section
$PersonLine=strpos($result, "");
$string=substr($result, $PersonLine);
//goto ID line
$IDLine=strpos($result, "");
$string=substr($result, $IDLine);
// find first and last position of ID field
$IDLine=strpos($string,">");
$IDLineEnd=strpos($string,"");
//save out the ID
$string=substr($string,$IDLine + 1,$IDLineEnd - 1 - $IDLine );
return $string;
}


also, I didn’t see a way to add a tag to a person. am I just blind?

When I print out the result I get SimpleXMLElement Object ( [body] => You are being . )

Any tips greatly appreacated

Thanks

Here’s some sample for form code from nContxt, an app I built using SimpleHighrise:

Form

PHP


$hr = new SimpleHighrise($site, $token, 'simplexml', $sub_type);

$result = $hr->create_new_person($fn, $ln, $pn);
if (isset($_GET['debug'])) print_r($result);
$personIdElement = $result->xpath('//id');
$personId = $personIdElement[0];


Thanks

As it is now, you have to give up a good bit of security in order to use this script.

function create_new_person($firstName = "", $lastName = "", $phoneNumber = "", $companyName = "Just Added", $emailAddress = "foo@bar.com", $location = "Work",$street="", $city="", $state="",$zip="") {
return($this->request("people.xml",
array(
"person" => array(
"first-name" => $firstName,
"last-name" => $lastName,
"company-name" => $companyName,
"contact-data" => array(
"email-addresses" => array(
"email-address" => array(
"address" => $emailAddress,
"location" => $location
)
),
"phone-numbers" => array(
"phone-number" => array(
"number" => $phoneNumber,
"location" => $location
)
),
"addresses" => array(
"address" => array(
"street"=>$street,
"city" => $city,
"state"=> $state,
"zip"=>$zip,
"location"=>$location
)
)
)
)
)
, "POST"));
}
