    <year>2009</year>

// 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");

$xml = new CkXml();

$xml->put_Tag('root');

// child1 is a CkXml
$child1 = $xml->NewChild('year','2009');

// child2 is a CkXml
$child2 = $xml->NewChild('junk1','abc .. < & > 123');

// child3 is a CkXml
$child3 = $xml->NewChild('junk2','abc .. < & > 123');
$child3->put_Cdata(true);
