are you sure, the file is writable. The method just returns false in your case, which means, it couldn't write for whatever reason. chregu Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-06 13:37:37] daju at passagen dot se Yes, only when destination file already exist. But that's the point. If I want to update a xml file I already have using DOM then I can't use save() function to save my changes. Shouldn't save() function work as DomDocument->dump_file() in PHP 4.3.x? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-05 11:44:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The problem with saving only occures when the destination file already exists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-02 13:57:25] daju at passagen dot se Description: ------------ Hi folks, I just downloaded development version av PHP 5 (CVS 2003-11-02) and tried the new DOM functions that uses libxml2 library. It's working great but there is one thing that I don't understand. I tried to update a xml file I have and I can add nodes and attributes but when i try to save file then nothing happens. There is no error messages at all. How ever if I choose another file name for the save function then it is working. New file is created and I see both the old and the new nodes in the xml file. Am I missing something here? Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo "<h3>Just a simple DOM test</h3>"; $dom = new domDocument(); $load = $dom->load('test.xml'); $root = $dom->documentElement; $element = $dom->createElement("temp", "Just a test text"); $attr = $element->setAttribute("id", "0007"); $attr = $element->setAttribute("author", "darren"); $tmp = $root->appendChild($element); $tmp = $dom->save('test.xml'); echo $tmp." bytes was saved to the xml file."; ?> Expected result: ---------------- The file should be updated. Output i my browser should be: 363 bytes was saved to the xml file. Actual result: -------------- 0 bytes was saved to the xml file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26083&edit=1
