This just stores the xml in memory you need to dump the file for any changes to stick. .:[ Never resist a perfect moment ]:.

Ok - I am a n00b to PHP but i honestly can not understand why this wont work. It may be because I have an older version of PHP or something but if you go to www.erudianart.com/05/PHPtest/test.php , the source code looks like this.

code:

<!DOCTYPE html

    PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html>

<head>

<title>ErudianArt v0.010205 || PHP test</title>

</head>

<body>



<?php



$doc = domxml_open_file("test.xml");

$node = $doc->create_element("para");

$node->set_attribute("align", "left");

$newnode = $doc->append_child($node);





?>



</body>

</html>

Ive even tried this with... millions of other combinations and such and I can not get my XML file to change!! arg.. can anybody help me, I am just looking for a way to make stuff in PHP add to my XML files.

the xml file is test.xml in the same directory.

Thanks!
