Description:
------------
In  windows version 5.1.2 php dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;   does not act correctly.
So as this option would not be put.

In PHP Version 5.0.5-Debian-0.8~sarge1 it works correctly.



Reproduce code:
---------------
	$doc = new DOMDocument;
	$doc->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
	$doc->loadHTML($buffer);
	$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
	
	$query = '//html/body/td/b';
	$entries = $xpath->query($query);
	$data=$entries->item(1)->nodeValue;


Expected result:
----------------
whitespaces between tags(xml elements) should be ignored.


Actual result:
--------------
whitespaces between tags(xml elements) are't ignore.

Are you using the same libxml2 versions on both systems? Maybe 
that's the reason...

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

preserveWhiteSpace has no effect using loadHTML() - only XML load methods - so behavior is due to different libxml2 versions (looks like behavior was fixed with newer version)
