DomDocument->get_element_by_id
(no version information, might be only in CVS)
DomDocument->get_element_by_id -- Searches for an element
with a certain id
Description
object DomDocument->get_element_by_id ( string id)
This function is similar to domdocument_get_elements_by_tagname()
but searches for an element with a given id. According to
the DOM standard this requires a DTD which defines the attribute
ID to be of type ID, though the current implementation simply
does an xpath search for "//*[@ID = '%s']". This
does not comply to the DOM standard which requires to return
null if it is not known which attribute is of type id. This
behaviour is likely to be fixed, so do not rely on the current
behaviour.
