Bug #17216: DOM XML uses non-DOM compliant calls

From: bmatzelle@yahoo.com Operating system: All PHP version: 4.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: DOM XML uses non-DOM compliant calls I could not help but notice that all DOM XML calls use an underscore-based convention: i.e. $mynode->append_child($achild); I am no language lawyer but if you read the DOM Core documentation (http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/core.html) it suggests a case-based (no underscore) convention: i.e. $mynode->appendChild($achild); Also, every DOM compliant library that I've looked at uses this same convention. Will the case-based convention be used in PHP 4.3.0? If not then it should be considered as it seems to be a violation of the DOM.
