Hi You're right, there is no functionality right now, which is freeing the domxml resources and I looked quickly through your patch. But i'm not sure, what you're gaining exactly with it. You're not freeing the libxml resources itself (and therefore the actual xml data), but just the Zend-Resources to it. Maybe this is very helpful in your special case, but IMHO not a general solution to the problem ;)
Could you please send me an example of your script. Maybe I can see then, where this functionality is especially useful. chregu On Sun, 2003-02-23 at 02:40, Robert Oldham wrote: > Overview: > domxml does not include a close document routing to release memory after > an xml document has been processed.
