Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-18 06:01:08] fletch at pobox dot com I'm aware of the differences in escaping between createElement() and createTextNode() and neither one does what I describe. createElement() unescapes NCRs (as I described in the original description) while createTextNode() escapes values. In a nutshell, using createElement() I end up with "<root> </root>", and using createTextNode() I end up with "<root>&#0160;</root>". There is no way to generate the literal XML "<root> </root>" using either createElement() OR createTextNode() ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-12 07:44:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It was decided to leave it as it is (for backwards compatibility reasons) use $dom->createTextNode() for the behaviour you want. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 23:28:30] fletch at pobox dot com There's a trivial error in the expected result text: the string length produced by var_dump() should be 65, not 59. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-11 23:26:27] fletch at pobox dot com Description: ------------ DOMDocument->createElement() unescapes any numeric character references (NCRs) contained in the value passed to its optional second parameter. It should preserve the value as passed. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $dom = new DOMDocument( "1.0", 'UTF-8' ); $dom->appendChild( $dom->createElement( 'root', '& ' ) ); var_dump( trim( $dom->saveXML() ) ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- string(59) "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <root>& </root>" Actual result: -------------- string(59) "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <root>& </root>" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40105&edit=1
