Example 1. Creating a new element and inserting it as root
<?php $dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1'); $element = $dom->createElementNS('http://www.example.com/XFoo', 'xfoo:test', 'This is the root element!'); // We insert the new element as root (child of the document) $dom->appendChild($element); echo $dom->saveXML(); ?>
