DOMDocument::createDocumentFragment
In response to 'mikek dot nospam at nospam dot muonics dot com', here is a more correct version, as values have to be UTF-8 encoded, and there's absolutely no reason to create an extra DOMElement class.
<?php
class ADOMDocument extends DOMDocument {
function __construct($version = null, $encoding = null) {
parent::__construct($version, $encoding);
}
public function createElement($tagName, $value=null) {
$node=parent::createElement($tagName);
if (!is_null($value)) {
$node->appendChild(
$this->createTextNode(utf8_encode($value))
);
}
return $node;
}
public function createElementNS($namespaceURI, $qualifiedName, $value=null) {
$node=parent::createElementNS($namespaceURI, $qualifiedName);
if (!is_null($value)) {
$node->appendChild(
$this->createTextNode(utf8_encode($value))
);
}
return $node;
}
}
?>
DOMDocument::createElement
(No version information available, might be only in CVS)
DOMDocument::createElement — Create new element node
Descrizione
This function creates a new instance of class DOMElement. Questo nodo non verrà mostrato nel documento a meno che venga inserito con, es. DOMNode->appendChild().
Elenco dei parametri
- name
-
The tag name of the element.
- value
-
The value of the element. By default, an empty element will be created. You can also set the value later with DOMElement->nodeValue.
Valori restituiti
Returns a new instance of class DOMElement or FALSE if an error occured.
Errori/Eccezioni
- DOM_INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR
-
Raised if name contains an invalid character.
Esempi
Example #1 Creating a new element and inserting it as root
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');
$element = $dom->createElement('test', 'This is the root element!');
// We insert the new element as root (child of the document)
$dom->appendChild($element);
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>
Il precedente esempio visualizzerà:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <test>This is the root element!</test>

Note that the second parameter (value), although convenient, is non-standard. You should create elements like this instead:
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');
$root = $doc->createElement('test');
$doc->appendChild($root);
$root_text = $doc->createTextNode('This is the root element!');
$root->appendChild($root_text);
print $doc->saveXML();
?>
Or, alternatively, extend the DOMDocument class and add your own custom, convenience method to avoid intruding on the standard:
<?php
class CustomDOMDocument extends DOMDocument {
function createElementWithText($name, $child_text) {
// Creates an element with a child text node
// @param string $name element tag name
// @param string $child_text child node text
// @return object new element
$element = $this->createElement($name);
$element_text = $this->createTextNode($child_text);
$element->appendChild($element_text);
return $element;
}
}
$doc = new CustomDOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');
$root = $doc->createElementWithText('test', 'This is the root element!');
$doc->appendChild($root);
print $doc->saveXML();
?>
Also use caution with (or avoid) the 'DOMElement->nodeValue' property. It can return some unexpected values and changing its value will replace (remove) all descendants of the element with a single text node. It's also non-standard; according to the DOM spec it should return NULL.

With regard to the note below about needing htmlentities to avoid warnings about unterminated entity references, I thought it worthwhile to mention that that you don't need to with createTextNode and DOMText::__construct. If you mix both methods of setting text nodes and do (or don't) apply htmlentities consistently to all data to be displayed, you'll get &s (or warnings and badly-formed xml).
It's probably in one's best interest to extend DOMElement and DOMDocument so that it creates a DOMText node and appends it, rather than passing it up to the DOMElement constructor. Otherwise, good luck using (or not using) htmlentities in all the right places in your code, especially as code changes get made.
<?php
class XDOMElement extends DOMElement {
function __construct($name, $value = null, $namespaceURI = null) {
parent::__construct($name, null, $namespaceURI);
}
}
class XDOMDocument extends DOMDocument {
function __construct($version = null, $encoding = null) {
parent::__construct($version, $encoding);
$this->registerNodeClass('DOMElement', 'XDOMElement');
}
function createElement($name, $value = null, $namespaceURI = null) {
$element = new XDOMElement($name, $value, $namespaceURI);
$element = $this->importNode($element);
if (!empty($value)) {
$element->appendChild(new DOMText($value));
}
return $element;
}
}
$doc1 = new XDOMDocument();
$doc1_e1 = $doc1->createElement('foo', 'bar & baz');
$doc1->appendChild($doc1_e1);
echo $doc1->saveXML();
$doc2 = new XDOMDocument();
$doc2_e1 = $doc2->createElement('foo');
$doc2->appendChild($doc2_e1);
$doc2_e1->appendChild($doc2->createTextNode('bar & baz'));
echo $doc2->saveXML();
?>
Text specified in createElement:
<?xml version=""?>
<foo>bar & baz</foo>
Text added via createTextNode:
<?xml version=""?>
<foo>bar & baz</foo>

To avoid warning message "unterminated entity reference" you may use htmlentities() for escaping supplied value:
<?php
//...
$dom->createElement('name', htmlentities($text))
//...
?>
