xml_set_processing_instruction_handler - Set up processing instruction (PI) handler
SYNOPSIS
bool xml_set_processing_instruction_handler (resource $parser, callable $handler)
DESCRIPTION
Sets the processing instruction (PI) handler function for the XML parser $parser.
A processing instruction has the following format:
target data?>
?>) can not be quoted, so this character sequence should not appear in the PHP code you embed with PIs in XML documents.If it does, the
rest of the PHP code, as well as the "real" PI end tag, will be treated as character data.
PARAMETERS
o $parser
- A reference to the XML parser to set up processing instruction (PI) handler function.
o $handler
-$handler is a string containing the name of a function that must exist when xml_parse(3) is called for $parser. The function
named by $handler must accept three parameters:
handler (resource $parser, string $target, string $data)
o $parser
- The first parameter, parser, is a reference to the XML parser calling the handler.
o $target
- The second parameter, $target, contains the PI target.
o $data
- The third parameter, $data, contains the PI data.
If a handler function is set to an empty string, or FALSE, the handler in question is disabled.
Note
Instead of a function name, an array containing an object reference and a method name can also be supplied.
