New Comment:
Hello, in my script getElementsByTagName() return a empty list where a
XML/HTML string used the char '-' int code 45. O zonk :/
Fix:
before DOMDocument->loadHTML($html) I'm using a
str_replace('-','__BAD_CHAR__',$html) and result I replace again to
primary version.

You sure no errors or warnings being thrown that aren't being shown? The
example
works fine for me using 5.3.2 and latests libxml2.

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>
