when i run the phpinfo() command i see that xml support is "active" but i didn't set the --with-xml parameter when i compiled php. does this mean it's supported natively?
-S
not as I recall....are you sure you didn't compile with those options? I think manual only says something about expat lib, but not xml...
so then what does it mean when phpinfo() says XML is active?
-S
Does it just say that or does it actually work? Dumb question, but it might be a glitch in phpinfo(), who knows.
If you're using PHP as an Apache module, it uses the expat library that comes with Apache, maybe it's that?
