Use PEAR's XML_Util class:

 
 <?php
$xmlData =<<< END
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
 <head></head>
 <body>
  <div>Content here.</div>
  <p></p>
  <div>Content here.</div>
 </body>
</html>
END;
// include class 
include "XML/Util.php";
// collapse empty tags and print 
echo XML_Util::collapseEmptyTags($xmlData);
?>
 

Comments

For elements that have no content, such as <name></name>, the XML specification suggests the use of empty-element tags, such as <name />. Available from http://pear.php.net/package/XML_Util, PEAR's XML_Util class provides an automated way to accomplish this change via its collapseEmptyTags() method. One of the most common uses for this method is illustrated in the previous listing: replace HTML's  sequence with the "better"  sequence.
