Description:
------------
When i try to delete <li> nodes by removeChild, it delete the </li> too and i think it's anormal.

If i add a space before the a tag, there is no problem.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$html = '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body>
<ul>
	<li><a href="link1.php">ITEM 1</a></li>
	<li><a href="link2.php">ITEM 2</a></li>	
</ul>
</body></html>';


$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadHTML($html);

while ($nd = $doc->getElementsByTagName('a')->item(0))
	$nd->parentNode->removeChild($nd);	


echo $doc->saveHTML();

Expected result:
----------------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body>
<ul>
	<li></li>
	<li></li>
</ul>
</body></html>

Actual result:
--------------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body>
<ul>
	<li>
	<li>
</ul>
</body></html>

Error in the bug description : It's when i try to delete <a> node, not <li> node.

use ->saveXML() instead of ->saveHTML() if you want XHTML instead of 
HTML 4.

There is no bug, it's correct behaviour.
