preserving white space with DOMDocument / loadHTML

First, here's my code:

<?php
$xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->preserveWhiteS pace = true;

$xml->loadXML('
<html>
<head/>
<body/>
</html>
');

$node = $xml->documentElemen t->getElementsByT agName('body')->item(0);
$node->parentNode->removeChild($n ode);

echo $xml->saveHTML();
?>

Any ideas as to why that doesn't preserve the whitespace? When I
change saveHTML to saveXML, it works just fine...

I am looking at xslt 1.0 and trying to understand if empty text nodes are supposed to be stripped or not as the default behaviour. 3.4 starts by listing rules for when white space is not stripped and then says "Otherwise the text node is stripped". which appears to contradict a later paragraph that discusses the details of the selection of nodes to be stripped ("Initially ... preserve ... all element names").

I'm trying to layout a couple text input fields and their corresponding labels without using a table. When I was trying to debug my understanding of CSS, I was *very* surprised to see that span's with borders behave counter-intuitively (IMHO) when using style="white-space: nowrap;". Below is a fairly small chunk of XHTML that demonstrates what I'm talking about. What gives? -Mark

Visual Studio automatically creates the Reference.cs file and the code that is used to serialize the classes used in the server's service. I create an instance of the input variable, set my values, and pass it to a method. The class is serialized/deserialized for me into an XML string that is sent to the...

Hi, I have some data which is stored in my MySQL database as TEXT. when the data is entered in, it has some carriage returns in it, and this can be seen when querying the data using MySQL Query Browser. I want to then display this text within <p> tags when requested from the database. However, the test is formatted without the carriage returns.

Hello. I have some javascript code that dynamically creates a textarea and sets the wrap value to hard, which I thought would preserve CR/LF in the textarea: var otherTextArea = document.createElement("textarea"); otherTextArea.setAttribute("rows", "10"); otherTextArea.setAttribute("cols", "30"); otherTextArea.setAttribute("id", "otherTextArea"); otherTextArea.setAttribute("wrap", "hard");

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
