Insert attribute in a <html> line

Question

I wan to insert this line of code:

xml:lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>"

to this line of code:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

so the output is like this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
xml:lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" >

I'm using this: Simple DOM Parser

when use this:

$html->find('html', 0)->outertext = '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
xml:lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" > ';

The whole HTML file will be lost and will be replaced by the code above. It's getting all the outertext of HTML. But I just want to change the line of HTML code.

The content is lost because you change the outertext which (probably) includes the dom-objects contents as well. — Kissaki

The doc on your lib is here: simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/manual.htm#section_access I’m not sure it can add attributes with namespace; in fact, I don’t think so. Attributes are accessed as object attributes thus limited to attribute names, and PHP does not allow : in there AFAIK. Did you consider not using the lib (for this)? Would that be an option? — Kissaki

You can do this, using Simple DOM Parser:

$content = $html->find('html', 0);
$content->outertext = '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
xml:lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>">'.$content->innertext().'</html>';
