$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;

$dom->formatOutput = true;

$root = $dom->createElement("hoteis");

 

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

 

#nó filho (contato)

$contato = $dom->createElement( "m" .  $row['id'] );

 

#setanto nomes e atributos dos elementos xml (nós)

  $nome = $dom->createElement("nome",  $row['nome'] );

 

$dt1 = $dom->createElement("data1",  $row['data'] );

$dt2 = $dom->createElement("data2",  $row['data2'] );

$v1 = $dom->createElement("valor1",  $row['valor'] );

$v2 = $dom->createElement("valor2",  $row['valor2'] );

 

#adiciona os nós (informacaoes do contato) em contato

$contato->appendChild($nome);

$contato->appendChild($dt1);

$contato->appendChild($dt2);

$contato->appendChild($v1);

$contato->appendChild($v2);
