Before the replacement <VAR CLASS="parameter" >newnode</VAR > is copied if it has a parent to make sure a node which is already in the document will not be inserted a second time. This behaviour enforces doing all modifications on the node before the replacement or to refetch the inserted node afterwards with functions like <A HREF="function.domnode-first-child.html" ><B CLASS="function" >domnode_first_child()</B ></A >, <A HREF="function.domnode-child-nodes.html" ><B CLASS="function" >domnode_child_nodes()</B ></A > etc.. </P ><P > (PHP 4.3) This function replaces an existing node with the passed new node. It is not copied anymore. If <VAR CLASS="parameter" >newnode</VAR > was already inserted in the document it is first unlinked from its existing context. If the replacement succeeds the old node is returned. </P ><P > See also <A HREF="function.domnode-append-child.html" ><B CLASS="function" >domnode_append_child()</B ></A > </P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.domnode-replace-child.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Înapoi</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Acasã</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.domnode-set-content.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Înainte</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >DomNode->replace_child</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="ref.domxml.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Sus</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >DomNode->set_content</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
