From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: win32 PHP version: 5CVS-2003-06-29 (dev) PHP Bug Type: XML related Bug description: simplexml failure on slashdot.rdf
Description: ------------ Sometimes simplexml objects return empty strings, even though var_dump shows the strings. A simple example is using simplexml to parse rdf. I grabbed an rdf from phpbuilder.com, and it worked wonderfully. Grabbed one from slashdot, and failure. Reproduce code: --------------- grab slashdot rdf http://slashdot.org/slashdot.rdf parse with: <?php $rdf = simplexml_load_file('slashdot.rdf'); ?> <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bordercolor="#0000FF"> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <td style="background-color:blue; color:white;"><?php echo $rdf->channel->title; ?></td> </tr> <?php foreach ($rdf->item as $item) { // this dump shows the correct data, but emptiness below // var_dump($item); ?> <tr> <td> <a href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>"><?php echo $item->title; ?></a> </td> </tr> <?php } ?> </table> </td> </tr> </table> -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24392&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24392&r=gnused
