There are a few things about this. First, if dom is also loaded, things get screwed up fast - same class names, etc.. It used to work before namespaces were dropped. There are a lot of fixes that need to be merged into PECL. Cant just move over files as PECL does have some new functionality As Chritian mentioned, I wont be supporting it under php 5. If the bug is reproduceable under php 4 thats one thing, but not going to try to fix something that is only a bug under php 5. Too many issues with domxml hence the re-write. I dont mind synching it up with the php 4 code having a package created for it and applying fixes that also apply to 4, but straight 5 support is not going to happen. Rob Christian Stocker wrote:

That's because there is no pre-packaged domxml extension up there yet. I've created a placeholder page and listed Christian as the lead developer (since he put a lot of work into it).
No problem, and I can try to package it up, but there is one main problem: domxml comes with the php4 source distribution, while it was replaced in php5 by dom. Therefore a lot of people are looking in PECL for domxml for php5. While some people claim they are using domxml on php5, I never really tested it and highly discourage from doing that as their is no support for it whatsover from my side (or rob, as far as i can tell) So, what's the point in packaging it, when it comes with php4 sources and is not supposed to be used in php5? Maybe making the docs more clear about that would be a better better approach. chregu
It would be great if someone has the time to package up domxml and publish it to pecl.php.net. --Wez. Cc'd: Christian as a courtesy, not as hint that I'd like him to do it, but just to let him know that I've put his name up there ;-)
