Regarding paul squigly-symbol allofus dot org's comment below:
Neither this method, nor setting the nodeValue property, encodes ampersands (&). You must
manually encode them or use the textContent property (which encodes them as expected.)
However, setting textContent on an element created by DOMDocument::createElement does NOT work. You
must create a text node, set its textContent, then append the text node to your element:
<?php
$dom = DomDocument::loadXML(<<<XML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo/>
XML
);
$element = $dom->createElement('bar');
$element->appendChild($dom->createTextNode('pb & j'));
$dom->documentElement->appendChild($element);
?>
