I have a catalog in XML format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<catalog>
<book>
...
<book>
<book>
...
<book>
...
</catalog>
Now I want to add another book,
which I have as a SimpleXMLElement:
$book = new SimpleXMLElement($string);
where $string reads
<book>
...
<book>
Can I add this new entry to the catalog
using SimpleXML functions,
or do I have to introduce a DOMDocument?
As may be obvious, I am very new to PHP programming;
and advice or suggestions gratefully received.
