You might want to put a link to a complete example because
$page->documentElement->getAttributeNS('http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace',
'lang'); is how you access it.

Thank you, Rob,
Unfortunately, that didn't work, either (though I'll keep it in mind).
The returned string is still empty.
I also unsuccessfully fetched the 'xmlns' attribute using
getAttribute(). Interestingly, although hasAttributes(void) returns
true, hasAttribute('xmlns'), and hasAttribute(' xml:lang') both return
false.

I'm having a pig of a time trying to figure this one out: I have an
XHTML document which I've loaded into a DOMDocument because I want to
add more tags to it. However, since I live in a bilingual country, I
want to get the document's xml:lang attribute so I know what language
to add my new tags in.
I want to write
$lang = $page->documentElement->getAttribute('xml:lang');
OR
$lang = $page->documentElement->getAttributeNS('xml', 'lang');
but both of these return empty strings, indicating that it cannot find
the xml:lang attribute. And yet,
$page->documentElement->hasAttributes() returns true and
$page->documentElement->attributes->getNamedItem('xml:lang')->nodeValue;
works correctly. So why doesn't my preferred code?
The xml prefix is bound to the http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace
namespace.
$lang =
$page->documentElement->getAttributeNS('http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace',
'lang');
