Creating <!DOCTYPE and <!ENTITY at beginning of XML using PHP

[twfurst]

Hello,

 

I am in the process of writing many XML files (416) from info on a MySQL Db. I have been sucessful in everything except for getting the following at the beginning of the file:

 

<!DOCTYPE dmodule [
<!NOTATION png PUBLIC "pngviewer.exe">
<!NOTATION jpg PUBLIC "jpgviewer.exe">
<!ENTITY  SYSTEM "./Illustrations/$filename.jpg" NDATA jpg>
]>

 

I have been using the DOMDocument functions within PHP to write the remainder of the file, with pretty good success. I am not sure how to get this information placed before the "root" element.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would post the complete PHP script that I have thus far, but it is 850 lines long, and at work.

 

Thanks

You should be able to use the saveXML function to save the value into a variable. Then simple write the info you want to a file with something like fwrite, followed by writing the value returned by saveXML.
