Re: How to add new functions to SimpleXML extention

Hello Alexander, generally a good idea but we are in feature freeze mode for PHP 5.0.x which is our current head. That means you have to suspend your idea until HEAD and PHP_5_0 are different branches. This will most likely happen during the next two months. To not forget your idea you can open a bug report and insert your idea with category 'Feature/Change request'. regards marcus Monday, January 12, 2004, 4:28:05 PM, you wrote: > Hi! > I'm just playing with simplexml and wonder if two new functions of the > simplexml_element object would be usefull: getName() and getParent().
