PHP to XML?

[Birmingham]

Hi, I want to export a multidimensional PHP array full of data somehow into an XML file (ready for someone else to then use simplexml_load_string to load the content of this XML file at a later date).

Does anyone have a clue about how to do this? Any help or step in the right direction would be much appreciated.

You could use SimpleXML to construct an XML document from the array and then use the asXML() member function to print the XML document to the file.

You can manually build the XML text just as you would HTML text if you wanted; or you could use the SimpleXML class to build it by adding nodes and attributes, then use the asXML() method to output it to a file.

EDIT: sorry for mostly duplicating LL's reply: phone call while typing. 🙂
