[resolved] Error trying to load SVG

[rick]

I have an image field with SVG as one of the allowed file types. However, when I try to upload an SVG image in page edit, I get the following error:

Error
Call to undefined function ProcessWire\simplexml_load_string()

File: .../www/cre8aplace/wire/core/Pageimage.php:533

523:         * @return array of width and height
524:         *
525:         */
526:        protected function getImageInfoSVG($filename = '') {
527:            $width = 0;
528:            $height = 0;
529:            if(!$filename) $filename = $this->filename;
530:            $xml = @file_get_contents($filename);
531:            
532:            if($xml) {
533:                $a = @simplexml_load_string($xml)->attributes();
534:                if((int) $a->width > 0) $width = (int) $a->width;
535:                if((int) $a->height > 0) $height = (int) $a->height;
536:            }
537:            

Other image types load fine. I haven't seen a post relating to this issue, so I assume it's pilot error again. ?

Is there some special field setting I have missed or is this an actual bug?

Is it a continuation of the git issue regarding dimension attributes?

<svg id="e532202f-8294-4472-8a94-ef01c23bf434" data-name="Layer 1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="1111.01" height="589.53" viewBox="0 0 1111.01 589.53">

There is no attributes section in the file. The dimensions are included in the header as shown.

@rick - have a read of this:

@rick - Actually, sorry I didn't read properly - the issue is that you don't have the "php-xml" PHP module installed.

Wow, you're going back in time there ?

I remember my parents talking about him, and I am sure I saw a few of his movies in my youth (they liked a good western), but don't honestly remember that expression.

I'm an old fart. Thanks for reminding me. ?
