#45553 [NEW]: Using XPath to return values for attributes with a namespace does not work

From: njones at art-k-tec dot com Operating system: OSX PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: SimpleXML related Bug description: Using XPath to return values for attributes with a namespace does not work Description: ------------ Using XPath to return values for attributes with a namespace does not work. It seems to be dropping any namespaces for attributes when using XPath. But the namespace is clearly registered because it can be used to access nodes, when using XPath. Reproduce code: --------------- $xml =<<<XML <xml xmlns:a="http://a"> <data a:label="I am A" label="I am Nothing">test1</data> <a:data a:label="I am a:A" label="I am a:Nothing">test2</a:data> </xml> XML; $x = simplexml_load_string($xml); $x->registerXPathNamespace("a", "http://a"); var_dump($x->xpath("/xml/data/@a:label")); echo "<br /><br />"; var_dump($x->xpath("/xml/a:data")); echo "<br /><br />"; var_dump($x->xpath("/xml/a:data/@a:label")); echo "<br /><br />"; var_dump($x->data->attributes("http://a")); Expected result: ---------------- array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(12) "I am A" } } } array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (2) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(14) "I am a:Nothing" } [0]=> string(5) "test2" } } array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(14) "I am a:A" } } } object(SimpleXMLElement)#4 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(6) "I am A" } } Actual result: -------------- array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(12) "I am Nothing" } } } array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (2) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(14) "I am a:Nothing" } [0]=> string(5) "test2" } } array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(14) "I am a:Nothing" } } } object(SimpleXMLElement)#4 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["label"]=> string(6) "I am A" } } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45553&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45553&r=mysqlcfg
