xml_parse - Start parsing an XML document

SYNOPSIS

       int xml_parse (resource	$parser, string  $data, [bool  $is_final = false])

DESCRIPTION

       xml_parse(3) parses an XML document. The handlers for the configured events are called as many times as necessary.

PARAMETERS

	      o $parser
		- A reference to the XML parser to use.

	      o $data
		-  Chunk of data to parse. A document may be parsed piece-wise by calling xml_parse(3) several times with new data, as long as the
		$is_final parameter is set and TRUE when the last data is parsed.

	      o $is_final
		- If set and TRUE, $data is the last piece of data sent in this parse.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns 1 on success or 0 on failure.

	For unsuccessful parses, error information can be retrieved  with  xml_get_error_code(3),  xml_error_string(3),  xml_get_current_line_num-
       ber(3), xml_get_current_column_number(3) and xml_get_current_byte_index(3).

       Note

	       Entity errors are reported at the end of the data thus only if $is_final is set and TRUE.
