For some reason, Zend have decided not to make PHP throw an exception when you try and load invalid XML into a DomDocument object... which is annoying. 
For some reason, Zend have decided not to make PHP throw an exception when you try and load invalid XML into a DomDocument object. This includes XML with invalid characters e.g. &. This means wrapping a try/catch around anything does absolutely no good whatsoever, which is annoying.
Is there a good way of trapping runtime errors using loadXml with the DomDocument library?

Internet Explorer has suppored opacity for a long time but it's also
possible to change the opacity of a layer in Safari, and both newer and

Internet Explorer has suppored opacity for a long time but it’s also
possible to change the opacity of a layer in Safari, and both newer and
older versions of Mozilla (including Firefox).
The code for setting the opacity of a layer to 50% (in JavaScript) is:
- For IE/Win: layer.style.filter = “alpha(opacity:50)”;
- For Safari (pre version 1.2), Konqueror: layer.style.KHTMLOpacity = .5;
- For older versions of Mozilla and Firefox: layer.style.MozOpacity = .5;
- For Safari 1.2, newer Firefox and Mozilla using CSS3: layer.style.opacity = .5;
The main difference now between IE and the other browsers is that in IE
opacity is specified as 0 to 100 whereas in Firefox and Safari it is a
decimal from 0 to 1.
