Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-30 14:49:29] rfludwick at gmail dot com I got the same result when using the snapshot, as well as version 5.2.8. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-25 23:35:36] rfludwick at gmail dot com Description: ------------ It appears that cloning a SimpleXML object will not produce the same XML output on asXML() as the original object. The original will output the XML header and a line break after the XML while the cloned object is missing these. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $simplexml = new SimpleXMLElement("<root />"); $simplexml->path->to->node = "Zend"; $simplexml_2 = clone $simplexml; echo "|{$simplexml->asXML()}|\n|{$simplexml_2->asXML()}|"; Expected result: ---------------- |<?xml version="1.0"?> <root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root> | |<?xml version="1.0"?> <root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root> | Actual result: -------------- |<?xml version="1.0"?> <root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root> | |<root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root>| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46672&edit=1
