#34836 [NEW]: After inserting a documentFragment it loses its nodes.

From: bart at mediawave dot nl Operating system: Fedora Core 4 PHP version: 5.0.5 PHP Bug Type: DOM XML related Bug description: After inserting a documentFragment it loses its nodes. Description: ------------ After inserting a documentFragment into a document, the documentFragment becomes empty / loses its nodes. I'm not sure if this is by design or not. I searched the W3C DOM spec for the specified behaviour. But it isn't clear to me if this is the way it should work or not. I also tested the same code with a normal element in stead of a documentFragment. Then it does works as I expect. Also, I'm using PHP 5.0.4 and not PHP 5.0.5 Fedora hasn't released a PHP 5.0.5 package yet. I'm sorry! Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $xml = '<root><sometag>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</sometag></root>'; $doc = new DOMDocument(); $doc->loadXML($xml); $sometags = $doc->getElementsByTagName('sometag'); while($sometag = $sometags->item(0)) { $docFrag = $doc->createDocumentFragment(); while ($childNode = $sometag->firstChild) { $docFrag->appendChild($childNode); } echo 'Print documentFragment contents before replacing:<br />'; foreach ($docFrag->childNodes as $childNode) { echo 'textContent:', $childNode->textContent, '<br />'; } $sometag->parentNode->replaceChild($docFrag, $sometag); echo '<br />Print documentFragment contents after replacing:<br />'; foreach ($docFrag->childNodes as $childNode) { echo 'textContent:', $childNode->textContent, '<br />'; } } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Print documentFragment contents before replacing: textContent:The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog Print documentFragment contents after replacing: textContent:The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog Actual result: -------------- Print documentFragment contents before replacing: textContent:The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog Print documentFragment contents after replacing: -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34836&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34836&r=mysqlcfg
