DOMDocumentFragment::appendXML
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7)
DOMDocumentFragment::appendXML — Append raw XML data
Description
public DOMDocumentFragment::appendXML ( string $data ) : bool
Appends raw XML data to a DOMDocumentFragment.
This method is not part of the DOM standard. It was created as a simpler approach for appending an XML DocumentFragment in a DOMDocument.
If you want to stick to the standards, you will have to create a temporary DOMDocument with a dummy root and then loop through the child nodes of the root of your XML data to append them.
Parameters
-
data -
XML to append.
Return Values
Returns true on success or false on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Appending XML data to your document
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML("<root/>");
$f = $doc->createDocumentFragment();
$f->appendXML("<foo>text</foo><bar>text2</bar>");
$doc->documentElement->appendChild($f);
echo $doc->saveXML();
?> The above example will output:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <root><foo>text</foo><bar>text2</bar></root>
