Thank you, luxian. This should be added to the documentation.

In the comments section of DOMDocument there are people saying that you need to set
'preserveWhitespaces' to 'false' and 'formatOutput' before you load
the file
This works:
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->load('in.xml');
?>

Description:
------------
Hi,
the formatOutput property of DOMDocument class doesn't seem to work.
Tested PHP builds:
PHP 7.3.2 (cli) (built: Feb 5 2019 23:14:21) ( NTS MSVC15 (Visual C++ 2017) x86)
PHP 7.3.4 (cli) (built: Apr 2 2019 22:13:15) ( NTS MSVC15 (Visual C++ 2017) x86)
Test script:
---------------
File to process (in.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root>
<a>
<b>
<c/>
</b>
</a>
</root>
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->load('in.xml');
$dom->formatOutput = true;
$dom->save("out.xml");
exit();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
I expect something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root>
<a>
<b>
<c />
</b>
</a>
</root>
Actual result:
--------------
The output is the same as the input
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root>
<a>
<b>
<c/>
</b>
</a>
</root>
