Because SimpleXML transforms the values & to & whe reading from file or string, the values
becomes invalid for use when adding childs later on. This simple conversion to the example above
fixes this problem.
<?php
class XMLElement extends SimpleXMLElement
{
public function addElement (SimpleXMLElement $xmlTree,$root=false)
{
if($root)
{
$child = $this->addChild ($xmlTree->getName());
foreach ($xmlTree->attributes() as $k => $v)
{
$child->addAttribute($k,$v);
}
$child->addElement($xmlTree);
}
else
{
foreach ($xmlTree as $childName => $childTree)
{
$child = $this->addChild($childName,$this->fix_content((string) $childTree));
// this is not comletely correct
foreach ($childTree->attributes() as $k => $v)
{
$child->addAttribute($k,$v);
}
$child->addElement($childTree->children());
}
}
}
#When the xml is read by simplexml_load_file or simplexml_load_file the values that contains
& is converted to &. And then it is not possible to add these values without getting errors.
#THis function should fix this
public function fix_content($value) {
return str_replace('&', '&', $value);
}
}
?>
