Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-08-26 15:24:31] evgeniy dot arsenyev at gmail dot com Description: ------------ This bug is pretty similar to Bug #66084 : simplexml_load_string() incorrectly interprets some XML strings. For specific inputs with empty nodes, node names are converted to integers. Original bug was fixed, but the same bug appears on a slightly different XML string '<a><c><inner/></c><c><inner>ddd</inner></c></a>'. Test script: --------------- print_r(simplexml_load_string('<a><c><inner/></c><c><inner>ddd</inner></c></a>')); Expected result: ---------------- SimpleXMLElement Object ( [c] => Array ( [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [inner] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( ) ) [1] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [inner] => dd ) ) ) Actual result: -------------- SimpleXMLElement Object ( [c] => Array ( [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( ) ) [1] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [inner] => ddd ) ) ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67909&edit=1
