PHP Dom Is there any way an element can create an element

Question

I realize that createElement() is a DOMDocument method.

If I have methods to which an element is passed, in this case, for a subsequent

element::parent::insertBefore(new_element, element)

is there a way given only the element to refer to the DomDocument so that the element can be created, an equivalent of

element::document::createElement()

or do I always need to pass the it as an additional parameter?

You can use:

$element->ownerDocument->createElement(...)

inherited from \DOMNode
