Quick note - writeElement also seems to decode any HTML entities during the write. For example, if you pass it "Me & You", it will write the output as "Me &amp; You".

The function XMLWriter::writeElement is used to write an element (i.e. a XML tag, an [optional] content, and a closing XML tag) in one line without sub-elements:



<?php



$oXMLout = new XMLWriter();

$oXMLout->openMemory();

$oXMLout->writeElement("quantity", 8);

$oXMLout->writeElement("price_per_quantity", 110);

print $oXMLout->outputMemory();



// produces:

// <quantity>8</quantity>

// <price_per_quantity>110</price_per_quantity>



?>



whereas if you want to include sub-elements you have to use the XMLWriter::startElement / XMLWriter::endElement pair:



<?php



$oXMLout = new XMLWriter();

$oXMLout->openMemory();

$oXMLout->startElement("item");

$oXMLout->writeElement("quantity", 8);

$oXMLout->writeElement("price_per_quantity", 110);

$oXMLout->endElement();

print $oXMLout->outputMemory();



// produces:

// <item>

// <quantity>8</quantity>

// <price_per_quantity>110</price_per_quantity>

// </item>



?>
