DOMExceptions not thrown when I expect them to

[Rutger Claes]

When I execute the folowing in PHP5

<?php
 $xml = <<<XML
<page>
 <test>Dit is een test<test>
</page>
XML;
 
 $dom = new DomDocument();
 try { 
  $dom->loadXML( $xml );
 } catch( DOMException $e ) { 
  print $e; 
 }
?>

I only get error messages, no DOMExceptions. The documentation of the DOM
package on Zend says:
The API of the module follows the DOM Level 2 standard as closely as
possible. Consequently, the API is fully object-oriented. It is a good idea
to have the DOM standard available when using this module.

Followed by a list of possible DOMExceptions and their codes.

My question is, how can I detect XML errors in the document loaded by
$dom->load() without using the PHP error reporting ( set_error_handl er(),
set_error_level (), trigger_error() ... )

Thanks in advance
