From: danielklein at airpost dot net Operating system: PHP version: 5.4.31 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:DOMNodelist::item actually returns DOMElement Description: ------------ DOMNodelist::item actually returns DOMElement, not DOMNode as stated in the documentation. Since DOMElement extends DOMNode, this is not a huge problem in that all the methods and properties will work as documented but the programmer is potentially missing out on a lot of useful features. Bug #42451 is also about this issue (but the reverse, asking for PHP to match the documentation). Perhaps a note in DOMNodelist::item explaining that as DOMElement extends DOMNode that it is actually correct? -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67806&edit=1 --
