Re: Generate XHTML (HTML compatible) Code using DOMDocument

Well this is an interesting turn of events :) We should now run over to the libxml folks and see if there is anything that can be done. There *are* encoding options when you setup the domdocument so it seems like the options are there but not working properly for one reason or another.

Michael, You are absolutely right! It's loadHTML() that's causing the problems. Best regards, __ Raymond Irving --- On Mon, 4/13/09, Michael A. Peters <mpeters@mac.com> wrote:

I'll try it and see what it does.

Huh - not tried above yet - but with $test = $myxhtml->createElement('p','שלום'); $xmlBody->appendChild($test); both saveXML() and saveHTML() do the right thing. However if I have the string <p>שלום</p> and load it into a DOM - With loadHTML() the utf8 is lost regardless of whether I use saveXML() or saveHTML() With loadXML() the utf8 is preserved regardless of whether or not I use saveXML() or saveHTML() php 5.2.9 libxml2 2.6.26-2.1.2.7 (CentOS 5.3) I wonder if the real utf8 problem people experience is really with loadHTML() and not with saveHTML() ??
