note 126934 added to class.domdocument

when you add the new element to formatted XML data through appendChild() method, you would the new element you add is not be formatted(that is not indexed, not line break). here is my solution (in short load the xml without preserve white space, ), example show as below: <?php $doc = new \DOMDocument(); $doc->formatOutput = true; $doc->preserveWhiteSpace = false;//that is key, default value is true. $doc->loadXML($xmlStr); $doc->appendChild($doc->createElement('php', '666')) $formattedXMLStr = $doc->saveXML();//DOMDocument wold format the xml str for you echo $formattedXMlStr; ?> it take me some time to try it out. hope it save your time. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 80.90.5.135 (proxied: 112.5.202.222) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/class.domdocument.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/126934 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/126934 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/126934 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
