BasewindI'm creating an xml file using simplexml, but would like to add the encoding="UTF-8" to the XML declaration. Like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
How can I do this?
Here's my code:
<?php
$namesXML = new SimpleXMLElement("<names></names>");
echo $namesXML->asXML();
This shows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?><!-- want the encoding attribute added here -->
<names/>
Thanks!

It is called *Simple*XML*Element* for a reason. However, this particular
character encoding declaration is superfluous; UTF-8 is one of the XML
default encodings [1].
And do use header() to declare the XML media type that fits your data best.
Keep in mind that PHP's default is text/html which is not appropriate for
that kind of output.

As far as I know, the only way is providing the full <?xml...?> tag in
the constructor:
$namesXML = new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="utf-8"?><names></names>');
echo $namesXML->asXML();
SimpleXML will display the tag as-is (though it will not actually _use_
the encoding information). It'll use UTF-8 no matter what you type there.
