    Hi, replacing a variableByTest does not work in some cases, the getFromZip method returns FALSE because, it seems, something's wrong with the word/header1.xml occurrence of the XPath. There is, for example, $xpathFooters = simplexml_import_dom($this->_contentTypeT); $xpathFooters->registerXPathNamespace('ns', 'http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/package/2006/content-types'); $xpathFootersResults = $xpathFooters->xpath('ns:Override[@ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.footer+xml"]'); foreach ($xpathFootersResults as $footersResults) { $footer = substr($footersResults['PartName'], 1); $loadContent = $this->getFromZip($footer); … This $loadContent becomes FALSE and the subsequent code crashes because of that. $footer is "word/footer1.xml", $this->getFromZip returns FALSE because $XMLData = $zip->getFromName($src); already returns FALSE. Any ideas how to resolve this?

    For the (our) record, the error occurs when working in header or footer target and using *subsequent* invocations of replaceVariableByText, just like $docx->replaceVariableByText(array('one' => 'ONE REPLACED'), array('target' => 'footer')); $docx->replaceVariableByText(array('another' => 'ANOTHER REPLACED'), array('target' => 'footer')); "Merging" the replacement array and using only one invocation would work.
