Hi Kiran,
Firstly you should be very careful of what the spec says on this.
Unfortunately there are some errors. These are the things that are
implemented:
i) Namespace normalization. If the namespaces feature is set then the ns
attrs are put on according to the algorithms specified. This is not what
the spec says but is correct,
ii) text node normalization occurs with no feature being set,
iii) attr node normalization occurs with no feature being set,
iv) comments will be removed if the comment feature is set,
v) cdata sections will be removed if the cdata sections feature is set.
This is documented on the normalizeDocument method in DOMDocument.
I will carry on implementing this for the next few months.
