Bug description:Incorrect xPath in children nodes
Description:
------------
For children nodes SimpleXMLElement::xpath searches the matching xPath in
parent
node.
Workaround:
Create new instances of SimpleXMLElement for each child.
$xmlNode = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlNode->asXML());
Test script:
---------------
$xmlData = <<<XML
<foo>
<bar>
<a>first</a>
</bar>
<bar>
<a>second</a>
</bar>
</foo>
XML;
$xmlObj = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlData);
foreach ($xmlObj->children() as $xmlNode) {
echo "<br>" . htmlspecialchars($xmlNode->asXML()) . "<br>";
var_dump($xmlNode->xpath("//a"));
}
Expected result:
----------------
<bar> <a>first</a> </bar>
array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#333 (1) { [0]=> string(5) "first"
} }
<bar> <a>second</a> </bar>
array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#333 (1) { [0]=> string(6)
"second" } }
Actual result:
--------------
<bar> <a>first</a> </bar>
array(2) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#333 (1) { [0]=> string(5) "first"
}
[1]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#335 (1) { [0]=> string(6) "second" } }
<bar> <a>second</a> </bar>
array(2) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#331 (1) { [0]=> string(5) "first"
}
[1]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#333 (1) { [0]=> string(6) "second" } }
