How to use php value in SimpleXMLElement ?

Hi ,

I know that too add a text value into the xml page I do the following

$person = $sxe->addChild("person");
$person->addChild('first_name');

If I want to use the value of $person how could I code it ?

• You can get it as

  $personXml = $person->asXML();
