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

This is the behavior exhibited from libxml2 when outputting in HTML 
format

As of July 12, 2013, almost 5 years after this problem is reported, this still is a problem. Please fix it.
