XVII. DOM XML functions
These functions are only available if PHP was configured with --with-dom=[DIR], using the GNOME xml library. You will need at least libxml-2.0.0 (the beta version will not work). These functions have been added in PHP 4.
This module defines the following constants:

- xmldoc — Creates a DOM object of an XML document
- xmldocfile — Creates a DOM object from XML file
- xmltree — Creates a tree of php objects from XML document
