Here's a function I came up with to convert an associative array to XML. Works for multidimensional arrays as well. function assocArrayToXML($root_element_name,$ar) { $xml = new SimpleXMLElement("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?><{$root_element_name}></{$root_element_name}>"); $f = create_function('$f,$c,$a',' foreach($a as $k=>$v) { if(is_array($v)) { $ch=$c->addChild($k); $f($f,$ch,$v); } else { $c->addChild($k,$v); } }'); $f($f,$xml,$ar); return $xml->asXML(); } ---- Server IP: 192.41.42.26 Probable Submitter: 75.145.54.114 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.simplexml.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/101949 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101949 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/101949 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
