It seams that WP removed XML (if you placed any) so could you place encoded it.

This was a life saver. I do have a question though, what if you have a sub element like And you want to get each of those topppings?

Add Specific Element in xml object $dom and save in XML file.

load(‘http://www.w3schools.com/XML/simple.xml’);
$food = ‘food’;
$child = ‘quantity’; // New Element
$qty=’500′; // New Element value
$foodList = $dom->getElementsByTagName(‘food’);
$foodCnt = $foodList->length;

for ($idx = 0; $idx getElementsByTagName($food)->item($idx)->appendChild($dom->createElement($child));
$childNode->appendChild($dom->createTextNode($qty));
$qty = $qty + $idx;
}

$dom->formatOutput = true;// set the formatOutput attribute of domDocument to true
// save XML as string or file
$test1 = $dom->saveXML(); // put string in test1
$dom->save(‘sample.xml’);
?>

Hope it helps someone.

[...] Now we’ll load each child element of item so we can manipulate with them. If you don’t know how to load them, check my previous tutorial about XML here. [...]

Thank you, This makes my life easier to implement a feature in my site.
I agree that the DOM classes are much more easy to use.

Thanks for the info

Nice wrapper . I’m having plans on creating new tutorial about using DOMDocument as database for some store software but right now don’t have time. I may use it. Thanks.

I’ve created a wrapper around DOMDocument called SmartDOMDocument to overcome some of its shortcomings.
