DOMDocument->saveXML() --  Dumps the internal XML tree back into a string

说明

class DOMDocument {

string saveXML ( [DOMNode node [, integer options]] )

返回值

异常

DOM_WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR

范例

例子 1. Saving a DOM tree into a string

<?php

$doc
= new DOMDocument('1.0');
// we want a nice output
$doc->formatOutput = true;

$root = $doc->createElement('book');
$root = $doc->appendChild($root);

$title = $doc->createElement('title');
$title = $root->appendChild($title);

$text = $doc->createTextNode('This is the title');
$text = $title->appendChild($text);

echo
"Retrieving all the document:\n";
echo
$doc->saveXML() . "\n";

echo
"Retrieving only the title part:\n";
echo
$doc->saveXML($title);

?>

上例将输出:

Retrieving all the document:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<book>
  <title>This is the title</title>
</book>

Retrieving only the title part:
<title>This is the title</title>

I used the function posted by "joe" but the following works to me for get the innerXML
<?php
$itemLeido
= $XMLRespuesta->getElementsByTagName("articulos");
foreach(
$itemLeido as $node) {
   echo(
$node->ownerDocument->saveXML($node));
}
?>

saveXML() does not produce valid XML in case that the DOM was build using loadHTML() method.

You can experience double attributes (for example double @xmlns attribute on <html> element) or for example two dashes inside the XML comment (<script><!-- for(a=10; a < 10; a--)...; --></script>).

Don't be confused if the result of saveXML() cannot be loaded again with loadXML().

Quick tip to minimize memory when generating documents with DOM.

Rather than using
   $xmlStr = DOMDocument->saveXML();
   echo $xmlStr;

to dump a large DOM to the output buffer, use a PHP output stream, as in

   DOMDocument->save('php://output');

A lot of memory will be saved when generating large DOMs.

When you save whole document:
DOMDocument->saveXML() produces string in encoding defined in property DOMDocument->encoding.

When you save only one node:
DOMDocument->saveXML(DOMNode) produces always string in UTF-8.
