Description:
------------
set_content() method does not replace node content
now it`s look like
new content = old content + function argument

this is not:
Bug #19247 
Bug #23710 




Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$dom = domxml_open_mem("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><Test>String1</Test>");
$node = $dom->document_element();
$node->set_content("String2");
echo $dom->dump_mem();
?>



Expected result:
----------------
<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><Test>String2</Test>

Actual result:
--------------
<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><Test>String1String2</Test>

code below works fine, but i don`t understand why i need
get child node for replacing content?
<?
$dom = domxml_open_mem("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><Test>String1</Test>");
$node = $dom->document_element();
$cn  = $node->first_child();
$cn->set_content("String2");
echo $dom->dump_mem();
?>

Just don't use set_content if you want reliable results. It's buggy as hell ;)

create_text_node()/append_child() is the better approach

shitty auto-form-completion... sorry again, will delete it in my browser...
