 Bug Type:         DOM XML related
 Operating System: RedHat9 Linux
 PHP Version:      4.3.7
 New Comment:

get_elements_by_tagname can't be used for xpath searches anymore. This
was a bug in 4.3.3. Please use the appropriate XPath functions, for
example xpath_eval
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xpath-eval.php)

Description:
------------
Reference result becomes empty when an XML file is searched.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<country>
  <list no="1">
    <name>Japan</name>
    <language>Japanese</language>
    <area>Asia</area>
  </list>
</country>

Reference result becomes empty when an XML file is searched.
However, reference result comes by PHP4.3.3 on the contrary.

PHP-4.3.3[cli]
PHP-4.3.7[cli]
libxml2-2.6.10


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$XML = domxml_open_file( "country.xml" );

foreach( $XML->get_elements_by_tagname( "/country/[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ) as
$Array )
{
  foreach( $Array->child_nodes( ) as $Child_Array )
  {
    $TagName         = $Child_Array->node_name( );
    $Value[$TagName] = de_convert( $Child_Array->get_content( ) );
 }

 echo "------------------------\n".
      "Country :".$Value["name"]."\n".
      "Area    F".$Value["area"]."\n".
      "LanguageF".$Value["language"]."\n\n";
}
?>


Expected result:
----------------
------------------------
Country :Japan
Area    :Asia
Language:Japanese

Actual result:
--------------
empty.
