Hello As mentioned in bug #9896 the api for domxml seems to has changed a lot... it's now almost impossible to write code with domxml which works in 4.0.5 and 4.0.6. for example $root->children() returns a completely different Array (tagname instead of name and so on...). Does this make sense for a minor-update? And all the domxml function still just produce a segfault on 4.0.6. if this is not supported anymore, fine ($root->children() instead of domxml_children($root) works also in 4.0.5), but i'd prefer a fatal error instead of a segfault :) Maybe I have to live with all these api-changes and as soon as all our servers have 4.0.6, it won't be a problem for me. But I think i'm not the only one which disturbs that a little bit.
I fixed a few memory leaks I found in that extension, but my feeling is that there are still lots of them and also many bugs lurking in there. I don't know where Uwe is or what he plans to do with the extension..
I've contacted Uwe, and if he doesn't object (or respond ;) within the next day or so, I'll revert the commit in the 4_0_6 branch (leaving head alone). -Sterling
