Hi all,

I've some problems with getAttribute* methods. I thing it is a bug, but
before  send it, I'd like to propose a little test to you all, just to have
a confirmation (maybe is my installation only).

first the code and after the output I got on three different  servers

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<?php

    $doc = '<root><node xml:id="one" at="one">first node</node><node
xml:id="two" at="two">second node</node></root>';
    $xmlDoc = new DOMDocument();
    $xmlDoc->loadXML($doc);

    $nodeList=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('node');

    echo 'Current PHP version: ' . `phpversion()`."\n\n";

    //echo $xmlDoc->saveXML();

    foreach($nodeList as $node){
        echo "getting id\n";
        echo "----------\n";
        echo "\tgetAttribute('id'):".$node->getAttribute('id')."\n";
        echo "\tgetAttribute('xml:id'):".$node->getAttribute('xml:id')."\n";
        echo
"\tgetAttributeNS('xml','id'):".$node->getAttributeNS('xml','id')."\n"."\n";

        echo "\tgetAttribute('at'):".$node->getAttribute('id')."\n";
        echo "\tgetAttribute('xml:at'):".$node->getAttribute('xml:id')."\n";

        echo
"\tgetAttributeNS('xml','at'):".$node->getAttributeNS('xml','id')."\n"."\n";
    }

    //phpinfo();

?>

PHP 5.2.x has correct behavior (see bug 38474) based on W3C specs.
