note 102279 added to libxml.constants

When inserting XML DOM Elements inside existing XML DOM Elements that I loaded from an XML file using the following code, none of my new elements were formatted correctly, they just showed up on one line: <?php $dom = DOMDocument::load('file.xml'); $dom->formatOutput = true; //$dom->add some new elements with child nodes somewhere inside the loaded XML using insertBefore(); $dom->saveXML(); //output: everything looks normal but the new nodes are all on one line. ?> I found I could pass LIBXML_NOBLANKS to the load method and it would reformat the whole document, including my added stuff: <?php $dom = DOMDocument::load('file.xml', LIBXML_NOBLANKS); $dom->formatOutput = true; //$dom->add some new elements with child nodes somewhere inside the loaded XML using insertBefore(); $dom->saveXML(); //output: everything looks newly formatted, including new nodes ?> Hope this helps, took me hours of trial and error to figure this out! ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 69.92.83.131 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/libxml.constants.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102279 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102279 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102279 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
