Parse standard INI files using PHP's in built parse_ini_file(). Does not read in comments. No options are available for this container.
Parses PHP Array structures. Can read from a PHP Source file or from an in memory array. Due to technical limitations, this container does not parse blank lines or comments when reading from a configuration file, therefore any information contained within PHP comments will be lost.
| Option | Data Type | Default value | Description |
| "name" | string | "conf" | The name to use for the root configuration variable, both when parsing and writing PHP source files. |
| "useAttr" | boolean | TRUE | Controls whether attributes are parsed and saved. |
| Warning |
Since config files containing php arrays are just included using the standard php methods, code comments and structure will be lost when saving. |

| "encoding" | string | "ISO-8859-1" | The content encoding to use when parsing and storing data. |
| "name" | string | "conf" | As with PHPArray, this defines the name of the global configuration root. |
| "indent" | string | " " | The character used for indentation when writing the XML document, if any. By default, two spaces are used. |
| "linebreak" | string | "\n" | The line-breaking character(s) to use when writing the XML document. |
| "addDecl" | boolean | TRUE | Controls whether the XML declaration is added to the start of the XML document. |
| "useAttr" | boolean | TRUE | Controls whether attributes are parsed and saved. |
| "isFile" | boolean | TRUE | If TRUE, the first argument to parseConfig() will be taken as the file name for the XML file to load. If FALSE, the argument will be taken as the XML data itself and parsed accordingly. |
