XML::DOM - The Declaration

Took me a little while to find this today, so I thought I'd mention it for future reference.

To add a declaration to a document created with XML::DOM, do the following:


my $decl = $doc->createXMLDecl('1.0', 'UTF-8');
$doc->setXMLDecl($decl);


Now the xml from the toString() will have a declaration! If only I could find something that would indent the XML...

if you haven't found it yet, I use XML::Tidy to format XML into something humanly readable.
