How to create an XML DOCTYPE in php5?

[MrKrinkle]

How do I make an xml file with this in it, using the xml api's in php
5.04?

<!DOCTYPE abcdef [
<!ENTITY nbsp " ">
<!ENTITY lt "&#60;">
<!ENTITY gt ">">
<!ENTITY amp "&#38;">
<!ENTITY apos "'">
<!ENTITY copy "©">
]>

See:

http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.dom-domimplementation-createdocumenttype.php

You will notice that inline dtd declarations are not supported, as the pages
describes:

"Entity declarations and notations are not made available. Entity reference
expansions and default attribute additions do not occur."

This is an invalid declaration (> is a reserved character in XML)

Yes, please cite this.

Meanwhile I'll put in a feature request for php to support the full xml
1.0 specification, which is like 10 years old. Or to provide a
workaround.
