No specific PHP xml/xslt list that I know of. Questions should go to
php-general I assume.

There are no implemented methods for DOMFragment in any of the released
versions of PHP (thus no docs yet).

You can check some old outdated docs - these are pre manual docs so dont
trust everything you read - at http://www.ctindustries.net/dom/.
Here you'll find the properties for the objects (Havent figured out how to
document the properties correctly in the manual).

You can always store the user submitted data in a CDATA node - this pretty
much is free form text.
If you need the submitted data to parse correctly into a tree (like using
the appendXML method), for PHP 5.0.x you can try the following hack:
$doc = new DomDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');
$doc->resolveExternals = true;
$doc->substituteEntities = true;
$art = $doc->createElement('article');
$art->setAttribute('id', 2335);
$HTML = 'Some kind of <a href="http://cos.com">HTML</a>';
$body = $doc->createElement('body');
$htmldoc = DOMDocument::loadXML("<doc>$HTML</doc>");
$htmlroot = $htmldoc->documentElement;
if ($htmlroot->hasChildNodes()) {
foreach($htmlroot->childNodes as $node) {
$body->appendChild($doc->importNode($node, TRUE));
}
}
$art->appendChild($body);
$doc->appendChild($art);
