Please see Mandriva bug for details: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=43486 And also please note the thread on the libxml mailing list: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.lib.xml.general/14610 And most notably the reply to the above thread: <quote> Can you report this as a PHP bug? It looks like some really old hack code in the PHP extension in order to mimic some specific expat functionality. The behavior change you see though resulting from a code changes in libxml2 is really due to the hackish code in the extension doing things it wasnt meant to be doing. </quote> Reproduce code: --------------- Please see this code: https://qa.mandriva.com/attachment.cgi?id=10757 Expected result: ---------------- < foo > wibble < /foo > Actual result: -------------- foo wibble /foo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45996&edit=1
