xml_set_element_handler()

xml_set_element_handler - Set up start and end element handlers

Syntax

xml_set_element_handler (resource $parser, callback $start_element_handler, callback $end_element_handler, resource $parser, string $name, array $attribs, resource $parser, string $name, resource $parser, callback $start_element_handler, callback $end_element_handler, resource $parser, string $name, array $attribs, resource $parser, string $name, resource $parser, callback $start_element_handler, callback $end_element_handler, resource $parser, string $name, array $attribs, resource $parser, string $name)

Arguments

• parser
• start_element_handler - The function named by start_element_handler must accept three parameters: start_element_handler ( resource , string , array ) parser The first parameter, parser, is a reference to the XML parser calling the handler. name The second parameter, name, contains the name of the element for which this handler is called.If case-foldingis in effect for this parser, the element name will be in uppercase letters. attribs The third parameter, attribs, contains an associative array with the element\'s attributes (if any).The keys of this array are the attribute names, the values are the attribute values.Attribute names are case-foldedon the same criteria as element names.Attribute values are notcase-folded. The original order of the attributes can be retrieved by walking through attribs the normal way, using each().The first key in the array was the first attribute, and so on. Note: Instead of a function name, an array containing an object reference and a method name can also be supplied.
• end_element_handler - The function named by end_element_handler must accept two parameters: end_element_handler ( resource , string ) parser The first parameter, parser, is a reference to the XML parser calling the handler. name The second parameter, name, contains the name of the element for which this handler is called.If case-foldingis in effect for this parser, the element name will be in uppercase letters. If a handler function is set to an empty string, or FALSE, the handler in question is disabled.
