Doc #55264 [NEW]: Example does nothing

From: Operating system: php PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Example does nothing Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/simplexmlelement.addattribute%23Examples --- The sample code depends upon the inclusion of example code, example.php, from an earlier page. Without example.php, the sample code does not work. Running the sample code outputs the the input. There is no visible change on inspection of the files, directories, and source code. I tried stripping parts of example.php out, to see if the code sample actually added any attributes, and the sample code just throws errors when lines are removed. Basically, the code does nothing to 'manipulate' XML. It simply verifies that a translation of the input matches the input. Can we get an example that doesn't depend upon external files and that actually changes something, please? Expected result: ---------------- Add an attribute to an XML file via PHP. Actual result: -------------- Does nothing. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55264&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55264&r=mysqlcfg
