DESCRIPTION

       other XML functions.

PARAMETERS
	      o $encoding
		- The optional $encoding specifies the character encoding for the input/output in PHP 4. Starting from PHP 5, the  input  encoding
		is automatically detected, so that the $encoding parameter specifies only the output encoding. In PHP 4, the default output encod-
		ing is the same as the input charset. In PHP 5.0.0 and 5.0.1, the default output charset is ISO-8859-1, while  in  PHP	5.0.2  and
		upper is UTF-8. The supported encodings are ISO-8859-1, UTF-8 and US-ASCII.

	      o $separator
		- With a namespace aware parser tag parameters passed to the various handler functions will consist of namespace and tag name sep-
		arated by the string specified in $separator.

RETURN VALUES
	Returns a resource handle for the new XML parser.
