PHP Bug Type: SimpleXML related
Bug description: asXML() doesn't work for empty XML elements
Description:
------------
asXML() function generates an XML string which contains invalid XML.
Reproduce code:
---------------
// Valid XML
$string =
"
<a>
<b></b>
</a>
";
// Load the string into the simplexml framework
$XMLObject = simplexml_load_string($string);
// View the XML object in string representation.
echo $XMLObject->asXML();
Expected result:
----------------
<a>
<b></b>
</a>
Actual result:
--------------
<a>
<b/>
</a>
<!--
Now the <b> tag is unclosed! i.e. invalid XML.
I am probably doing something wrong... so please help :o)
I have checked the documentation and examples on other websites all to no
avail. Couldn't find anything relevant using Google.
