Description:
------------
I've got this PHP code:
$xml = simplexml_load_file('file.xml');
foreach($xml-> children() as $name => $item){
echo $name.'<br/>';
}
It was working with older PHP 5 snapshots (as I know, from January).
But: I have installed the newest PHP snapshot, and it returns:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method simplexml_element::children() in
myfile.php on line xxx
The same problem is with "xpath()" method.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$xml = simplexml_load_string(
'<person>
<child role="son">
<child role="daughter"/>
</child>
<child role="daughter">
<child role="son">
<child role="son"/>
</child>
</child>
</person>');
foreach ($xml->children() as $second_gen) {
echo ' The person begot a ' . $second_gen['role'];
foreach ($second_gen->children() as $third_gen) {
echo ' who begot a ' . $third_gen['role'] . ';';
foreach ($third_gen->children() as $fourth_gen) {
echo ' and that ' . $third_gen['role'] .
' begot a ' . $fourth_gen['role'];
}
}
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
The person begot a son who begot a daughter; The person
begot a daughter who begot a son; and that son begot a son
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Call to undefined method simplexml_element::children() in
file etc. etc.
