append 2 xml files with php

[x_maras]

Hi,

 

I want to append 2 xml files

 

they are similar but not the same and I want to append them.

The first contains some more nodes from the second but they have the same structure.

 

e.g.

<items>
<item>
	<node1></node1>
	<node2></node2>
	<node3></node3>
	<node4></node4>
	<node5></node5>
</item>
<item>
	.
	.
	.
</item>
	.
	.
	.
</items>

 

What I want is to take all the item nodes from the second file and to append the in the first file as childs of the "items" node.

 

Any tips would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Dinos
