PHP: xml_set_default_handler

Description

bool xml_set_default_handler ( resource parser, callback handler )

Sets the default handler function for the XML parser parser. handler is a string containing the name of a function that must exist when xml_parse() is called for parser.

The function named by handler must accept two parameters: handler ( resource parser, string data )

parser: The first parameter, parser, is a reference to the XML parser calling the handler.
data: The second parameter, data, contains the character data. This may be the XML declaration, document type declaration, entities or other data for which no other handler exists.

If a handler function is set to an empty string, or FALSE, the handler in question is disabled.

TRUE is returned if the handler is set up, FALSE if parser is not a parser.

Замечание: В качестве аргумента вместо имени функции может быть передан массив, содержащий ссылку на объект и имя метода.

I have the same issue using two installation of PHP5: on accepts to use the default handler while the other only uses the character_data one.



Maybe a configuration problem...

it seems to me that in PHP5 the function defined as default-handler (using xml_set_default_handler()) doesen't get passed the cdata anymore:



i.e.:

xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, 'parseSTART', 'parseEND');

xml_set_default_handler($this->parser, 'parseDEFAULT');

function parseSTART() { ... }

function parseEND() { ... }

function parseDEFAULT() { ... } 



under PHP5, parseDEFAULT will NOT get passed any cdata, but unter PHP4 it will. at least that's my take on the strange stuff (not) happening after migrating to PHP5.



my solution was to add a xml_set_character_data_handler($parser, 'parseDEFAULT'). it worked for me.
