Try this:
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument("1.0","iso-8859-1");
/* Create all elements */
$comment = $dom->createElement("comment"); //root element
$user = $dom->createElement("user", "Carl");
$date = $dom->createElement("date", "1-1-2005");
/* Now place them in the correct place in the tree */
$comment->appendChild($user); // User is a child of Comment
$comment->appendChild($date); // Date is a child of comment
$dom->appendChild($comment); // Comment is a child of rootdoc
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>
It outputs :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<comment>
<user>Carl</user>
<date>1-1-2005</date>
</comment>
Make sure you append children according to their place in the hierarchy.
