I have tried numerous ways to test this and the following is always my result.

Fatal error: Can't use function return value in write context in D:\MyDomain.com\include\phpdocx\classes\TransformDocAdvHTML.php on line 3199

 

It doesn't matter if I use my code or the code that came with the software. Go to D:\MyDomain.com\include\phpdocx\examples\FormatConverstion\trasformDocAdvHTML\sample_1.php  or sample_2.php and I get the same error.

 

Am I doing something wrong?

Hello,

What version of PHP are you using? PHP 5.4 or previous?

Although we recommend you to update to a newer version of PHP (5.6 or 7), to fix it with old versions of PHP, please edit classes/TransformDocAdvHTML.php and replace that line (3099):

if ($this->complexField !== null && $this->complexField['type'] == 'FORMTEXT' && !empty(trim($childNode->nodeValue))) {

by:

$childNodeValue = trim($childNode->nodeValue);
if ($this->complexField !== null && $this->complexField['type'] == 'FORMTEXT' && !empty($childNodeValue)) {

Regards.
