I have found problems using documents with different encodings. 

When I add nodes from one document to another ($docAItem->add_child($docB->root()), if the flag encoding property of the target document has not been set  when initially creating the document (using functions xmldoc, xmldocfile, etc., not setting the property manually with '$doc->encoding = "utf8"') then the encoding translation is not done. 
A possible workaround for this situation is to force the flag using dumpmem with the optional encoding flag set. ie:
$docA = domxml_new_xmldoc(?1.0?);
$docARoot = $docA->add_root(?root?);
$docA = xmldoc($docA->dumpmem(0, ?UTF8?));

It looks like the encoding property of the DomDocument object can?t be set manually.
Also, when creating a new DomDocument from scratch (with domxml_new_xmldoc) the encoding property should be set to UTF8 as a default, or allow a second optional parameter in the xmldoc function to set the proper encoding. 

byeer, pipo_

Properties of Dom Objects are read-only, only created at generation time and therefore not really reliable...

The internal encoding of domxml is always utf8, could you please give a short selfcontained example for the "add nodes from one document to another"-problem?

But you gave the right solution, for having another encoding at output.

Here is the main problem regarding this bug.  If you want to enter data into your xml document that is encoding in iso-8859-0 because the encoding on your document is set to iso-8859-0, it screws up because the internal encoding is always set to utf-8.  This is fine, but the input encoding is also always set to utf-8...if you want to enter iso8859-1 data into the tree, there should be an option to set the input encoding so that it converts it appropriately to utf-8.  Otherwise, the user is forced to do
iconv('ISO-8859-1', 'UTF-8', 'string') each time he/she wants to enter data into the document.  I believe you should be able to set the expected input encoding and have it automatically convert it.
