note 86085 added to function.simplexml-element-addChild

I found this easy way to create a CDATA section as child value: I extend the class SimpleXMLElement: class SimpleXMLExtended extends SimpleXMLElement { public function addCData($cdata_text) { $node= dom_import_simplexml($this); $no = $node->ownerDocument; $node->appendChild($no->createCDATASection($cdata_text)); } } Then in the main code: $xml = new SimpleXMLExtended('<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?><root></root>'); $mynode = $xml->addChild("myname"); $mynode->addCData("my name contains everything I want &%<>"); echo $xml->asXml(); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 89.96.52.107 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-element-addChild.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86085 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86085 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86085 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
