Problem with accessing return value of DOMNodeList::item() method.
When using the following code segment:
---------------------
$messageNodes = $doc->getElementsByTagName( "message" );
if( $messageNodes != NULL )
{
$messageStr = $messageNodes->item( 0 )->firstChild->nodeValue;
}
---------------------
PHP gives an error: "syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR"
But if I modify it like the following:
---------------------
$messageNodes = $doc->getElementsByTagName( "message" );
if( $messageNodes != NULL )
{
$messageNode = $messageNodes->item( 0 );
$messageStr = messageNode->firstChild->nodeValue;
}
---------------------
There is no error.
I guess, the return element of DOMNodeList::item() function can not be readily accessed via
"->" operator.
