Perhaps you missed my reply.
If you pass the root node then you get the entire document without the XML
declaration.
That's both elegant and built-in.
I didn't miss it. But you have to pass in the root DomNode object. The only
way to get it is by doing the following:
$nodeList = $doc->getElementsByTagname( 'RootTagName' );
echo $doc->saveXML( $nodeList->item( 0 ));
So unless your root node has an ID, that seems pretty excessive. Now you
have the wasted resources that $nodeList is using. While it is crude, I
believe it is both faster and less resource intensive to just do:
echo str_replace( '<?xml version="1.0"?>', '', $doc->saveXML());
It would be really nice if you could also specify a string value -- the name
of the root node.
I do appreciate the time and effort in reply to my post. It forced me to
relook at the method and to look into DomNode and DomNodeList. :)
thnx,
Chris
