If you want to stick to the standards, you will have to create a temporary DOMDocument with a dummy root and then loop through the child nodes of the root of your XML data to append them.
Parameters
-
data
-
XML to append.
Return Values
Returns true
on success or false
on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Appending XML data to your document
<?php
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML("<root/>");
$f = $doc->createDocumentFragment();
$f->appendXML("<foo>text</foo><bar>text2</bar>");
$doc->documentElement->appendChild($f);
echo $doc->saveXML();
?>
The above example will output:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <root><foo>text</foo><bar>text2</bar></root>
