The following example will add a new element node to a fresh document
The following example will add a new element node to a fresh document
and sets the attribute "align" to "left". Example 1. Adding a child
<?php
$doc = domxml_new_doc("1.0");
$node = $doc->create_element("para");
$newnode = $doc->append_child($node);
$newnode->set_attribute("align", "left");
?>
The above example could also be written as the following: Example 2. Adding a child
<?php
$doc = domxml_new_doc("1.0");
$node = $doc->create_element("para");
$node->set_attribute("align", "left");
$newnode = $doc->append_child($node);
?>
A more comples example is the one below. It first searches for a certain element, duplicates it including its children and adds it as a sibling. Finally a new attribute is added to one of the children of the new sibling and the whole document is dumped. Example 3. Adding a child
<?php
include("example.inc");
if(!$dom = domxml_open_mem($xmlstr)) {
echo "Error while parsing the document\n";
exit;
}
$elements = $dom->get_elements_by_tagname("informaltable");
print_r($elements);
$element = $elements[0];
$parent = $element->parent_node();
$newnode = $parent->append_child($element);
$children = $newnode->children();
$attr = $children[1]->set_attribute("align", "left");
echo "<PRE>";
$xmlfile = $dom->dump_mem();
echo htmlentities($xmlfile);
echo "</PRE>";
?>
