$imp = new DOMImplementation;
// Creates a DOMDocumentType instance
$dtd = $imp->createDocumentType('graph', '', 'graph.dtd');
// Creates a DOMDocument instance
$dom = $imp->createDocument("", "", $dtd);
// Set other properties
$dom->encoding = 'UTF-8';
$dom->standalone = false;
// Create an empty element
$element = $dom->createElement('graph');
// Append the element
$dom->appendChild($element);
