Question

I’m looking for a DOM XML function to convert PHP array like this:

<?php
$errors = array("A", "B", "C", "D");
?>

to DOM XML NodeList

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<error>
    <missing>A</missing>
    <missing>B</missing>
    <missing>C</missing>
    <missing>D</missing>
</error>

Thank you very much for your help 🙂

I tried the following code:

<?php
$basedoc = new DomDocument();
$basedoc->Load("Standard.svg"); //Fichier SVG de base
$baseroot = $basedoc->documentElement; //On prend l'élément racine
$errorgroup = $basedoc->createElement('error'); //On crée le groupe de base
foreach($erreurs as $erreur) {
    $missinggroup = $errorgroup->createElement('missing'); //On crée le groupe de base
    $errorgroup->appendChild($missinggroup);
}
$baseroot->appendChild($errorgroup);
?>

You are not not using $erreur anywhere in the creation code so obviously it wont be in the resulting XML. Also, you cannot create an Element from a DOMElement but must create it from the DOMDocument. Your code will give a Fatal Error.

Change

$missinggroup = $errorgroup->createElement('missing');

to

$missinggroup = $basedoc->createElement('missing', $erreur);

and then it will work: http://codepad.org/GmCIBIQW
