Methods Summary
`public`	# `__construct( string $data , bool $auto_trim = false, int $level = NULL, bool $is_clone = false )` Constructor for the xml parser. Example use: $xml = new xmlArray(file('data.xml'));
`public`	# `name( )` Get the root element's name. Example use: echo $element->name();
`public`	# `fetch( string $path , bool $get_elements = false )` Get a specified element's value or attribute by path. Children are parsed for text, but only textual data is returned unless get_elements is true. Example use: $data = $xml->fetch('html/head/title');
`public`	# `path( $path , $return_full = false )` Get an element, returns a new xmlArray. It finds any elements that match the path specified. It will always return a set if there is more than one of the element or return_set is true. Example use: $element = $xml->path('html/body');
`public`	# `exists( string $path )` Check if an element exists. Example use, echo $xml->exists('html/body') ? 'y' : 'n';
`public`	# `count( string $path )` Count the number of occurrences of a path. Example use: echo $xml->count('html/head/meta');
`public`	# `set( $path )` Get an array of xmlArray's matching the specified path. This differs from ->path(path, true) in that instead of an xmlArray of elements, an array of xmlArray's is returned for use with foreach. Example use: foreach ($xml->set('html/body/p') as $p)
`public`	# `create_xml( string $path = NULL )` Create an xml file from an xmlArray, the specified path if any. Example use: echo $this->create_xml();
`public`	# `to_array( string $path = NULL )` Output the xml in an array form. Example use: print_r($xml->to_array());
`protected`	# `_parse( string $data )` Parse data into an array. (privately used. ..)
`protected`	# `_xml( array $array , null\|int $indent )` Get a specific element's xml. (privately used. ..)
`protected`	# `_array( array $array )` Return an element as an array
`public`	# `_to_cdata( string $data )` Parse out CDATA tags. (htmlspecialchars them. ..)
`protected`	# `_from_cdata( string $data )` Turn the CDATAs back to normal text.
`protected`	# `_fetch( array $array )` Given an array, return the text from that array. (recursive and privately used.)
`protected`	# `_path( array $array , string $path , int $level , bool $no_error = false )` Get a specific array by path, one level down. (privately used. ..)
