#41721 [NEW]: Implement publically accessible interface for line numbers

From: ezyang@php.net Operating system: PHP version: 5CVS-2007-06-18 (CVS) PHP Bug Type: DOM XML related Bug description: Implement publically accessible interface for line numbers Description: ------------ This is a feature request. The DOM extension currently offers no easy way of accessing the original line numbers of nodes. While I understand that the DOM specification currently defines no way of retrieving such data, I believe the benefits of a proprietary property far outweigh the possible interoperability concerns. It should be noted that libxml already contains this functionality, and line numbers are accessible via saxon:line-number() (this was fixed in Bug #34103). Theoretically, it is possible to retrieve this information by running the document through a special EXSLT stylesheet and then cross-referencing with the output: this strikes me as quite overkill. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41721&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41721&r=mysqlcfg
