Be careful and dont write attributes after writing text() or any content into xml element, for example
<?php
xml
->startelement("div");
xml->text("my text in div");
xml->writeattribute("id",1); // wont write because after adding text
xml->endelement();
?>

If you intermix writing sub-elements and attributes, any attributes that are written after the first sub-element are ignored/discarded:

<?php
$xml
->startElement('element');
 
$xml->writeAttribute('attr1', 0);
 
$xml->writeElement('subelem', 0);
 
$xml->writeAttribute('attr2', 0);
$xml->endElement();
?>

Outputs:

<element attr1=0>
  <subelem>0</subelem>
</element>

This is stupid, but the way it works as of PHP 5.2.4.
