I have a template with an image placeholder in the header ($HEADERIMG$), and a variable in the header ($FOO$) (screenshot of this template: http://screencast.com/t/Ruf9EGNb) Then if I want to replace FOO and then HEADERIMG, with following code: $docx = new \CreateDocxFromTemplate("replacePlaceholderImages2.docx"); $docx->replaceVariableByText(array("FOO" => 4), array("target" => "header")); $docx->replacePlaceholderImage('HEADERIMG', 'images/user.png', array("target" => "header")); $docx->createDocx('/tmp/example_replacePlaceholderImages_2'); => I get an exception: ContextErrorException: Warning: DOMDocument::loadXML(): Empty string supplied as input in [...]/phpdocx/classes/CreateDocxFromTemplate.inc line 1096 As a second try, if I want to replace the placeholder HEADERIMG and then the variable FOO, with following code: $docx = new \CreateDocxFromTemplate("replacePlaceholderImages2.docx"); $docx->replacePlaceholderImage('HEADERIMG', 'images/user.png', array("target" => "header")); $docx->replaceVariableByText(array("FOO" => 4), array("target" => "header")); $docx->createDocx('/tmp/example_replacePlaceholderImages_2'); => I get an exception: FatalErrorException: Error: Call to a member function registerXPathNamespace() on a non-object in [...]/phpdocx/classes/CreateDocxFromTemplate.inc line 1271 Am I using the lib in a bad manner ? Thanks for your feedback
