Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php loadXML() is not a true static function. It is just allowed to be called statically. When called statically within a method of an instantiated DOMDocument object it acts as if the method had been called directly from the object itself rather than statically. use the syntax as demonstrated by the behavior of $internal_doc1 creation in this case. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-03 11:42:24] georg at howen dot de Changed status back to open since I believe that $internal_doc2 = DOMDocument::loadXML($xml); is a static call that does not return what it should. If I didn't get something right I am really sorry, but I still believe this is a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-03 10:38:40] georg at howen dot de Hi, I thought I was aware of that. But isn't $internal_doc2 = DOMDocument::loadXML($xml); a static call to DOMDocument? That's the one that works fine _outside_ of a DOMDocument but not inside a class that extends DOMDocument. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-03 10:20:33] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php DOMDocument::loadXML will return DOMDocument only when called staticly ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-03 09:55:29] georg at howen dot de Description: ------------ If you extend DOMDocument and try to use DOMDocument::loadXML() on a new DOMDocument within the extended class, this function will return true instead of a new instance of DOMDocument. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class xDOMDocument extends DOMDocument { public function newDom($xml) { $internal_doc1 = new DOMDocument; $internal_doc1->loadXML($xml); print_r($internal_doc1); $internal_doc2 = DOMDocument::loadXML($xml); print_r($internal_doc2); } } $xml = '<def>Test</def>'; $dom = new xDOMDocument(); $dom->newDom($xml); Expected result: ---------------- DOMDocument Object ( ) DOMDocument Object ( ) Actual result: -------------- DOMDocument Object ( ) 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36600&edit=1
