Example#1 Get XML

<?php
$string 
= <<<XML
<a>
 <b>
  <c>text</c>
  <c>stuff</c>
 </b>
 <d>
  <c>code</c>
 </d>
</a>
XML;

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($string);

echo 
$xml->asXML(); // <?xml ... <a><b><c>text</c><c>stuff</c> ...

?>

asXML also works on Xpath results:

Example#2 Using asXML() on Xpath results

while(list( , 
$node) = each($result)) {
    echo 
$node->asXML(); // <c>text</c> and <c>stuff</c>
}
?>
