Note Submitter: greg@cabinetuk ---- Its important to remember, when adding a created element to an existing node using append_child(), that if you want to then add another element to that node you have to go back and set up a DOMNode instance using DOMDocument_get_elements_by_tagname or similar before you can append another node onto it. eg <? $new_element = $dom->create_element("new_element"); $oldTag->append_child($new_element); //Go back and set up new element as DOMNode $new_elementArray = $dom->get_elements_by_tagname("new_element"); $new_elementTag = $new_elementArray[0];//(if theres more than one use a for loop) $new_elementTag->append_child("another_new_element"); ?>
