v1.1.3 Release Notes

🔧 Maintenance Release - PHP 8 Compatibility Fix

This is a maintenance release that addresses PHP 8.0+ compatibility issues.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Removed deprecated libxml_disable_entity_loader() - This function was deprecated in PHP 8.0 and caused deprecation warnings. The call has been removed as it's no longer necessary in modern PHP versions where external entity loading is disabled by default.

📦 Dependencies

• PHP >= 5.6 (required)
• ext-dom (required)
• ext-xml (required)
• ext-libxml (required)

📝 Notes

This release maintains backward compatibility with PHP 5.6+ while ensuring forward compatibility with PHP 8.0+.
