The Note You're Voting On

16 years ago

A quick note to anyone who is using character entities (e.g. &copy;) in this, and finding them automatically escaped. The correct thing to do here is to use the createEntityReference method (e.g. createEntityReference("copy");), and then appendChild this entity between text nodes.



Example:



<?php

$copyright_text_1 = $this->document->createTextNode("Copyright ");

$copyright_text_2 = $this->document->createTextNode(" Alex Kaye 2009");

$copyright_symbol = $this->document->createEntityReference("copy");

$copyright->appendChild($copyright_text_1);

$copyright->appendChild($copyright_symbol);

$copyright->appendChild($copyright_text_2);

?>
