From: msw at seebi dot de Operating system: Windows XP Prof PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: DOM XML related Bug description: is_blank_node() returns nothing
Description: ------------ I've checked out DOM method is_blank_node(), which checks whether a node is empty or not. The methode is_blank_node seems to me not working correctly and returns nothing. Reproduce code: --------------- XML-Code with empty nodes: <?xml version="1.0"?> <userliste> <user> <name/> <passwort/> <datum/> <zeit/> </user> </userliste> PHP-Code to read and to use is_blank_node: <?php if(!$dom = domxml_open_file("e:/htdocs/user.xml")) { echo "Error while parsing the document\n"; exit; } $root=$dom->document_element(); print($root->is_blank_node()); $node=$dom->get_elements_by_tagname("name"); print ($node[0]->node_name()); print ($node[0]->is_blank_node()); if ($node[0]->is_blank_node()) { print("empty"); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- The PHP-code checks whether <name> is empty or not. I'v expected that is_blank_node returns true. Actual result: -------------- is_blank_node returns nothing. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26499&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26499&r=float
