#36263 [NEW]: DOM XML breaks on copyright character in text node

From: thom at genx dot net Operating system: Linux (gentoo) PHP version: 5.1.2 PHP Bug Type: DOM XML related Bug description: DOM XML breaks on copyright character in text node Description: ------------ When a copyright character (ascii 169) is present in a string that is added as a text node to the DOM structure, the element is always empty. The correct behavior is to encode the character as "&copy;". Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $doc = new DOMDocument('1.0'); $t = $doc->appendChild($doc->createElement('test')); $t->appendChild($doc->createTextNode('&' . chr(169) . '<')); header('Content-type: text/xml'); echo $doc->saveXML(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <test>&amp;&copy;&lt;</test> Actual result: -------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <test></test> -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36263&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36263&r=mysqlcfg
