#32743 [NEW]: Error with type of 2nd parameter when creating DOMDocument()

From: jj at intelequest dot com Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.0.4 PHP Bug Type: DOM XML related Bug description: Error with type of 2nd parameter when creating DOMDocument() Description: ------------ When executing the demo code found at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.dom-domdocument-construct.php I obtain the error message. "Warning: domdocument() expects parameter 2 to be long" My understanding (from the online docs) is that the 2nd parameter is to be of type string. Also, according to the documentation, this is the php 5 replacment to DOM_XML i.e. this is DOM XML. Note that there is no sub-category for just DOM so the next logical place to put errors such as these would be either DOM XML or Documentation bug. Reproduce code: --------------- <?PHP $dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'iso-8859-1'); echo $dom->saveXML(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> Actual result: -------------- Warning: domdocument() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in C:\temp\test_xml.php on line 2 Fatal error: Call to undefined method domdocument::saveXML() in C:\temp\test_xml.php on line 3 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32743&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32743&r=mysqlcfg
