I can tell you how to do it with php5's DOM.
You have to declare the namespace first, i.e. add the attribute xmlns:media with the url to the definition (xmlns, xml namespace).
http://de2.php.net/manual/en/function.d ... espace.php probably would have done this for you.
Code: Select all
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1');
$rss = $dom->createElement('rss');
$rss->setAttribute('version', '2.0');
// declaring the namespace media
$rss->setAttribute('xmlns:media', 'http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/');
// creating an element in the namespace media
$content = $dom->createElement('media:content');
$content->setAttribute('url', 'http://www.php.net');
$rss->appendChild($content);
$dom->appendChild($rss);
$dom->formatOutput=true;
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>
