i have problem with simpleXml and adding new items. This is my xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
<items>
<item>abc</item>
<item>def</item>
<item>ghi</item>
</items>
</root>
Im using this php code:
$xml = simplexml_load_file("myxml.xml");
$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($xml->asXML());
$newItem = $sxe->addChild("items");
$newItem->addChild("item", $newValue);
$sxe->asXML("myxml.xml");
This is the result:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
<items>
<item>abc</item>
<item>def</item>
<item>ghi</item>
</items>
<items>
<item>jkl</item>
</items>
</root>
This creates me new items node, but i want add item to the same already existing items node.
then, you should not create new items node:
$xml = simplexml_load_file("myxml.xml");
$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($xml->asXML());
$itemsNode = $sxe->items[0];
$itemsNode->addChild("item", $newValue);
$sxe->asXML("myxml.xml");
