Yep, that works fine, thanks a lot!

However I noticed later that without the flag, most entity references
in the body of the source XML would be stripped (my initial "bug"
report), while on some occasions they would pass through unchanged (as
if it were raw data).
I can provide a .xml + .xsl pair if you want to look at it any further,
but I'm not sure if it deserves another bug report (might be a feature
I didn't understand, or a bug in libx*, ...).

You need to use the undocumented flags when loading the document:
$xml = domxml_open_file('page.xml',DOMXML_LOAD_SUBSTITUTE_ENTITIES);

Description:
------------
Hello,


When transforming an XML document with the DomXsltStylesheet object,
references to local entities in the source XML doc do not pass
through.
In the source code provided, I'm using page.xml as the source XML,
sheet.xsl as the stylesheet, and transform.php as the PHP code of
course.
The problem can be seen simply by issuing 'php transform.php' on the
command line.

Hope I'm not missing something like an option, I'm not really an XML
guru!

Environment:
- Linux SuSE 7.3
- Apache 2.0.47
- PHP 4.3.2
- libxml 2.5.8
- libxslt 1.0.31



Best regards,

Thomas

Reproduce code:
---------------
==== page.xml ====
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE old [
    <!ENTITY ccedil "&#231;">
]>
<old>&ccedil;a marche !</old>


==== sheet.xsl ====
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <new><xsl:apply-templates/></new>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


==== transform.php ====
<?
    $xml = domxml_open_file ('page.xml');
    $xsl = domxsl_xslt_stylesheet_file ('sheet.xsl');
    $out = $xsl->process ($xml, array ());
    $echo $xsl->result_dump_mem ($out);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
The output of 'php transform.php' should be:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<new>&#xE7;a marche !</new>

(&#xE7 being the UTF-8 escape sequence for ç)

That's the output of the command 'xsltproc sheet.xsl page.xml' on the
same machine.

Actual result:
--------------
You only get:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<new>a marche !</new>

The 'ç' got lost somewhere down on the pipe...

PHP does the same thing when running as an Apache2 module.
