Description:
------------
The page for SimpleXMLElement::children refers to 
SimpleXMLElement::count to check that a node has children. However, 
there is no documentation page for this method, nor does it exist in my 
installation of PHP anyway.

...And I just realized that I'm expected to use the main count() 
function. In that case, there should be a note in the documentation 
about that.

Reproduce code:
---------------

From manual pages: simplexmlelement.children#Notes
and                simplexmlelement.children#See Also

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

Reopening. Apparently SimpleXMLElement::count() was added in PHP 5.3.
