note 37739 added to function.domdocument-create-element

The first example on this page is also a bit verbose. Since the DomElement class inherits/extends the DomNode class, one does not, in fact, have to get another reference to the first node. The create_element method has already given you that reference. (Also, the last line passes a string to the append_child method, instead of a DomNode object) Simplified: <? $new_element = $dom->create_element("new_element"); $new_element->append_child($another_element); $oldTag->append_child($new_element); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.domdocument-create-element.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+37739 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+37739&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+37739&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
