The first line of that page - " The DOM extension is the replacement for the
DOM XML extension from PHP 4." makes me suspect that it may be a PHP 5
feature, and sure enough, a look in the changelog confirms this.
php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.0.0b1
So if you are using php < 5.0, that would explain your error.
