note 44443 added to function.domxml-new-doc

well, the parameter is the version, but... what about the encoding, etc. after I have tried many things I came to next conclusion (check this): <?php $gsXML = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>" . "<something />"; // it will be erased $o = domxml_open_mem($gsXML); $something = $o->document_element();//obtaining node to delete //echo("before:<pre>\n". print_r($o->dump_mem(true),true). "</pre>\n"); $something->unlink_node($something); // deleting node //echo("after:<pre>\n". print_r($o->dump_mem(true),true). "</pre>\n"); ?> in the same way you can add "DOCTYPE", etc ================================= ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.domxml-new-doc.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+44443 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+44443&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+44443&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
