Summary: DOMImplementation::createDocument() does not correctly
append children
Status: Bogus
Type: Bug
Package: DOM XML related
Operating System: Fedora 12 GNU/Linux
PHP Version: 5.3.2
New Comment:
At http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/introduction.html it states
"Each
document contains zero or one doctype nodes, one document element node,
and zero
or more comments or processing instructions; the document element serves
as the
root of the element tree for the document". Correct me if I'm wrong but
if that
is the case then shouldn't the product of:
$document =
$implementation->createDocument('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml',
'html', $doctype);
use the method DOMNode::appendChild() 'correctly' and place the child
element
within its tags (as a child) rather than next to it (as a sibling)?
In the meantime, the following code gets the desired effect. It does
seem a
rather long way of locating the document/root element and appending a
child to
it:
<?php
$implementation = new DOMImplementation();
$doctype = $implementation->createDocumentType('html');
$document =
$implementation->createDocument('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml',
'html', $doctype);
$head = $document->createElement('head');
$html = $document->getElementsByTagName('html');
$html = $html->item(0);
$html->appendChild($head);
echo $document->saveXML();

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
It's appending exactly where you are telling it to

The following code also produces the same error:
<?php
$implementation = new DOMImplementation();
$doctype = $implementation->createDocumentType('html');
// Don't create a root element...
$document = $implementation->createDocument(null, null, $doctype);
// ...instead create a <html> element and set the xmlns attribute:
$html = $document->createElement('html');
$html->setAttribute('xmlns', 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml');
$document->appendChild($html);
$head = $document->createElement('head');
$document->appendChild($head);
echo $document->saveHTML();

Description:
------------
The product of DOMDocument::createDocument() appends children outside of
the qualified name of the document element (i.e. the root element).
I am using php-5.3.2-1.fc12.i686 and php-xml-5.3.2-1.fc12.i686 installed
using Yellowdog Updater, Modified Package Manager. All other DOM methods
tried so far work fine.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$implementation = new DOMImplementation();
$doctype = $implementation->createDocumentType('html');
$document =
$implementation->createDocument('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml', 'html',
$doctype);
$head = $document->createElement('head');
$document->appendChild($head);
echo $document->saveHTML();
Expected result:
----------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head></head>
</html>
Actual result:
--------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";></html><head></head>
