<?php

// The version number (9_5_0) should match version of the Chilkat extension used, omitting the micro-version number.
// For example, if using Chilkat v9.5.0.48, then include as shown here:
include("chilkat_9_5_0.php");

// Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
$xml = new CkXml();

$xml->put_Tag('animals');

$autoCreate = true;

// When the autoCreate argument equals true, the UpdateAttrAt
// method auto-creates the children as needed:
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('penguin',$autoCreate,'feature','flightless bird');
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('mammal|rodent|squirrel',$autoCreate,'feature','bushy tail');
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('mammal|rodent|rat',$autoCreate,'feature','long hairless tail');

// Show the XML
print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<animals>
// 	    <penguin feature="flightless bird" />
// 	    <mammal>
// 	        <rodent>
// 	            <squirrel feature="bushy tail" />
// 	            <rat feature="long hairless tail" />
// 	        </rodent>
// 	    </mammal>
// 	</animals>
// 

// Now update each node's "feature" attribute..
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('penguin',$autoCreate,'feature','black and white');
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('mammal|rodent|squirrel',$autoCreate,'feature','grey, red, or black');
$xml->UpdateAttrAt('mammal|rodent|rat',$autoCreate,'feature','brown, grey, white, or black');

print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<animals>
// 	    <penguin feature="black and white" />
// 	    <mammal>
// 	        <rodent>
// 	            <squirrel feature="grey, red, or black" />
// 	            <rat feature="brown, grey, white, or black" />
