note 108811 added to function.xmlwriter-end-element

Note that elements opened this way will *remain open* (i.e. the XML will be badly formed and thus invalid) unless *each element* is explicitly closed with XMLWriter::endElement. If you have multiple elements open, and wish to simply close them all -- including the root element -- this snippet is what you want: <?php // Automatically close all remaining open elements. while ($xml->endElement() !== false) { continue; } ?> In some cases, XMLWriter::writeElement might serve you better: it writes complete elements, but isn't suitable when you need to loop to generate its contents, unless this is done beforehand. ---- Server IP: 94.76.225.145 Probable Submitter: 86.3.147.192 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xmlwriter-end-element.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/108811 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108811 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/108811 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
