If you change the value of c to add a space, '\n', or an additional node <x2/> after the node <x/>, you get the correct output. Test script: --------------- <?php var_dump(simplexml_load_string('<a><b/><c><x/></c></a>')->c); ?> Expected result: ---------------- class SimpleXMLElement#2 (1) { public $x => class SimpleXMLElement#3 (0) { } } Actual result: -------------- class SimpleXMLElement#2 (1) { public ${0} => class SimpleXMLElement#3 (1) { public $x => class SimpleXMLElement#4 (0) { } } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71526&edit=1
