While we should be throwing exceptions when strictErrorChecking is true, behaviour when it is false is undefined. I would suggest in that case to keep allowing everything. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-06 04:15:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] You're right, that was my mistake. I suppose that any of the places where the DOM specification could raise an exception would be the places where there needs to be error-checking. Ought of curiosity, how come we don't use gdome2? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-05 23:22:24] [EMAIL PROTECTED] You should read the specs more closely. Names are most certainly checked and a DOMException with an INVALID_CHARACTER_ERROR error is thrown. Some of the others I need to look at because it is perfectly fine to create non well formed XML using DOM though it should error during serialization, so for those the bug would onl be in the saveXML routine. Other extensions it is not a bug because non-well formed XML support is required because the output when used in a larger context is well formed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-05 23:02:49] [EMAIL PROTECTED] One more: ]]> is not allowed in CDATA blocks. I also suspect that the other XML extensions have bugs here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-05 23:02:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED] IIRC, DOM does not make any demands on names or things like that. libxml2, which is known for its strictness, doesn't either. So, I'm still hoping that you'll let the checks be turned off. :-) Some things from my investigation: - Double hyphens (--) are not allowed in comments - Most of the text inputs don't check for UTF-8 well-formedness. Haven't tested numeric character entities either, but those are suspicious - Fake namespace declarations in attributes ($d->appendChild($d->createElement('foo:bar')); results in invalid XML, as foo namespace was never defined) All these result in a $d->saveXML(); that is invalid XML, and probably some more. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-05 22:54:04] [EMAIL PROTECTED] assign to self. The strictness is dependent upon the DOM specs and setAttribute should be throwing an exception in that case. While I am going to go through and check other methods, let me know if you come across any others that are not validating names correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
