@XMLSTARTELEMENT[name,namespaceURI] : Writes the opening tag of a new XML element.
Writes the opening tag of a new XML element. If an XML element is already opened, then this element is written as a child.
If name is a local name without a prefix, the class will automatically introduce a new xmlns="NamespaceURI" attribute if necessary.
If name is in the form prefix:local, then class will automatically introduce a new xmlns:prefix="NamespaceURI" as necessary.
When calling @XMLPutElement or @XMLStartElement, if a NamespaceURI is not specified an empty namespace will be defined for the element. If a namespace should be associated with the element, a NamespaceURI value must be provided. When creating the XML, the class will determine if the namespace already exists to avoid duplicate definitions of the same namespace.
Returns 0 on success, or an XML error on failure;
Example:
To create this XML named books.xml:
<book xmlns='urn:loc.gov:books' xmlns:isbn='urn:ISBN:0-395-36341-6'>
<title>Cheaper by the Dozen</title>
<isbn:number>1568491379</isbn:number>
</book>
Use the code:
echo %@xmlcreate[books.xml]
echo %@xmlstartelement[book,urn:loc.gov:books]
echo %@xmlputattr[xmlns:isbn,"",urn:ISBN:0-395-36341-6]
echo %@xmlputelement[title,urn:loc.gov:books,Cheaper by the Dozen]
echo %@xmlputelement[isbn:number,urn:ISBN:0-395-36341-6,1568491379);
echo %@xmlendelement[]
echo %@xmlclose[]
