PHP5 DOM can be tricky at first and hard to remember every time. I always find myself digging around for code I wrote in the past to accomplish a particular trick that I know I can do in theory, if I could just remember how..

Some collected problems and solutions follow in no particular order. This is an evolving document, and I will add solutions to problems as I or my friends come across them. If you have any cool tricks or solutions, please leave a comment and let me know. For the example code, you will require at least PHP5 with the latest libxml2 (minimum) installed.
