Using the below function I was able to get the exported xml data to a file in the correct format.
// function to convert multi-dimensional array to xml
function array2XML($obj, $array)
{
foreach ($array as $key => $value)
{
if(is_numeric($key))
$key = 'item' . $key;
if (is_array($value))
{
$node = $obj->addChild($key);
array2XML($node, $value);
}
else
{
$obj->addChild($key, htmlspecialchars($value));
}
}
}
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<root/>');
array2XML($xml, $json_obj);
echo (($xml->asXML('data.xml')) ? 'Your XML file has been generated successfully!' : 'Error generating XML file!');
//Store data as a string to send to database
//$data = $xml->asXML();
