Hello all,
So I have loaded the XML file into the dom, however, each time it still overwrites it with this code:
PHP Code:
$dom = new DomDocument('1.0');
$dom -> loadXML('posts.xml');
I have tried this:
PHP Code:
$dom = DomDocument();
$dom -> loadXML('posts.xml');
...but it doesn't like it...
Here is my whole dom xml creator... I think it is almost there... just the overwrite problem. I don't understand that.
PHP Code:
//################### XML #################################
//Creates XML string and XML document using the DOM
$dom = DomDocument();
$dom -> loadXML('posts.xml');
//add root - <rss>
$rss = $dom->appendChild($dom->createElement('rss'));
//add <channel> element to <RSS>
$channel = $rss->appendChild($dom->createElement('channel'));
//add <item> element to <channel>
$item = $channel->appendChild($dom->createElement('item'));
//add <title> element to <item>
$title = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('title'));
//add <body> element to <item>
$description = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('description'));
//add <category> element to <item>
$category = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('category'));
//add <pubDate> element to <item>
$pubDate = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('pubDate'));
//add <link> element to <item>
$link = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('link'));
//add <author> element to <item>
$author = $item->appendChild($dom->createElement('author'));
//add <title> text node element to <title>
$title->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($ptitle));
$description->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($pdescription));
$category->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($pcategory));
$pubDate->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($todaysdate));
$link->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($plink));
$author->appendChild(
$dom->createTextNode($pauthor));
//generate xml
$dom->formatOutput = true; // set the formatOutput attribute of
// domDocument to true
// save XML as string or file
$test1 = $dom->saveXML(); // put string in test1
$dom->save('posts.xml'); // save as file
########## XML END ##########################################
