Can you try DOMPDF 0.6.0 alpha2 to see if it is still a problem? We don't plan 
on releasing any patches for the 
0.5.1 code, but if this is still an issue we will address it.

Also, if you are able can you provide a sample document that causes the error?

I am still getting the same error with 0.6.0 alpha2...Here is the actual script 
i am
using to try and generate a pdf:

<?php
require 'lib/dompdf2/dompdf_config.inc.php';
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html('hello world');
$dompdf->render();
$dompdf->stream("sample.pdf");die();
?>

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Style::merge() in
[...]lib/dompdf2/include/stylesheet.cls.php on line 218

Thank you!

The problem is maybe that what you load with load_html is not HTML ? ;)

I would expect it to render the document even with a simple "hello world" test. 
I have confirmed that on my 
own system. Despite the strictness of DOMDocument it will attempt to create a 
valid document. You can 
confirm this in 0.6.0 alpha 2 using the following code:

<?php
require 'lib/dompdf2/dompdf_config.inc.php';
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html('hello world');
$dompdf->output_html();
?>

What version of PHP are you running?

Hello,

I have the same problem and no way to resolve it. I search on the web, on the 
forum, 
into the groupe google and nobody have the same problem.

Can you help me ? I am sure that that the error come from the render() function 
when it 
call add_style()... I don't understand the link between the two classes Style 
and 
Stylesheet. This last called on line 217 a $this->_styles[$key]->merge and it's 
the 
cause of the error.

Thanks for your help.

@quentin.janon: The Stylesheet class deals with loading a document stylesheet 
while
the Style class deals with the specific entries in the stylesheet.

What version of PHP are you using? Can you provide a sample document that 
exhibits
the error?

I suspect a class "Style" which is already defined in the system in which you 
want to integrate dompdf.
