Question

After some searches on the web and some tests, i can't find the solution and need your help

From a php script, i create a XML output :

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($string);
//some code
echo $xml->asXML();

I Would like to create a file contain the XML and save on my server by using PHP.

Thanks for your help

what were you searching for that gave you no solution? solutions to this are easily available. search on google for php write text to file. the first result is spot on. — james

if echo $xml->asXML() displays the xml then I guess you could use file_put_contents or other similar function. ie:

$filepath='/path/to/directory/filename.xml';
file_put_contents( $filepath, $xml->asXML() );
