Re: PhpXpath 3.3

[Nigel S. <nig...@us...>]

  First of all, sorry about my last post (php =
allow_call_time_pass_reference 03/23/2003). At the time, I don't know =
why, but I couldn't find any info. I now have read the posts previosu to =
mine and understand the issue. If you are an administrator and can =
delete that post, please do (along with this part of this message if =
possible).
The issue was always somewhat fuzzy in my mind, so I was hoping someone =
else would chip in and answer your question.... the email was still in =
my inbox :o/  Glad you got the answer you were looking for though!
  I have another issue now that I can't seem to find any info on. Using =
phpXpath 3.3 I am able to import xml using both the importFromFile() and =
importFromString() methods. I am also able to use the getData() and =
exportAsXml() methods. However my application calls for using =
appendChild() / insertChild() and insertData() calls inbetween. For some =
reason, my appendChild() calls are returning the following errors:
<snip>
  My appendChild() call looks like this:

  $XpathObject->appendChild("/MyRootNode[1]/SubNodeOne[1]", =
"SubNodeTwo");
Try=20

$XpathObject->appendChild("/MyRootNode[1]/SubNodeOne[1]", =
"<SubNodeTwo/>");
  Is the error coming from a problem with my method call, or is it from =
the fact that the zero element of this array is empty / null? How can I =
fix this? I tried substituting the version 2.2 class source file instead =
of version 3.3, and everything works fine. After viewing my xml files =
using several text editors, I've come to the conclusion that the error =
is not because of whitespace at the beginning of the document. I get =
this error from both importFromString() and importFromFile(), since the =
latter actually calls the first. Can anyone shed any light on why this =
is happening? Thanks!

It was a change in the appendChild() call between 2.2 and 3.3 that we =
obviously didn't document well enough (you aren't the first to get stung =
by this).  Previously you could only append a single new element, but =
now you can do cool stuff like=20

$XpathObject->appendChild("/MyRootNode[1]/SubNodeOne[1]", =
"<a><b/><c/></a>");

Cheers
