Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-05-08 15:31:35] php-bugs-0705 at nico dot edtinger dot at Description: ------------ Currently Xmlwriter::WriteElement() and Xmlwriter::WriteElementNS() require the forth argument $content and are therefor not able to output empty tags. Someone has to use XmlWriter::startElement(); and XmlWriter::endElement(); to output an empty tag. That's a bit cumbersome. It would be nice if $content could be made optional or set to null to output an empty tag. I know it's the documented behavior, that it always write a a full element tag and libxml2 does have the same behavior. Nevertheless it would be a nice addition to be able to write less code for a short tag. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $xml = new XmlWriter(); $xml->openMemory(); $xml->startDocument(); $xml->startElement('test'); $xml->writeElement('foo', null); $xml->startElement('bar'); $xml->endElement('bar'); $xml->endElement(); echo $xml->outputMemory(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <test><foo/><bar/></test> Actual result: -------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <test><foo></foo><bar/></test> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41326&edit=1
