Package: DOM XML related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:getElementsByTagName always return an empty list
Description:
------------
$document = new DOMDocument()->load(...);
$document->getElementsByTagName(<root element name>) works (returns list
with one element).
getElementsByTagName(<non root element name>) always return an empty list.
Examples on notes and on the web (some examples claimed to be working are
prior the 5.3.2) are all not working.
Tested on LAMP server PHP 5.2.8 AND on XAMPPLite WAMP PHP 5.3.1, both not
working.
Test script:
---------------
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->load('__xml/faq.xml');
$faqs = $doc->getElementsByTagName("faq");
echo $faqs->length; // always 0
__xml/faq.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<faqs>
<faq>
<domanda>domanda1</domanda>
<risposta>risposta1</risposta>
</faq>
<faq>
<domanda>domanda2</domanda>
<risposta>risposta2</risposta>
</faq>
<faq>
<domanda>domanda3</domanda>
<risposta>risposta3</risposta>
</faq>
</faqs>
