Definition and usage

The xml_set_default_handler() function is used to set the default data handler for the XML parser.

This function specifies the function to be called when the parser finds data in the XML file.

Example

 <?php
// Create XML parser
$parser = xml_parser_create ( ) ;

function def ( $parser , $data ) {
  echo $data ;
}

// Set the default data processor
xml_set_default_handler ( $parser , "def" ) ;

$fp = fopen ( "note.xml" , "r" ) ;

while ( $data = fread ( $fp , 4096 ) ) {
  // parse XML data
  xml_parse ( $parser , $data , feof ( $fp ) ) or
  die ( sprintf ( "XML error: %s on line %d" ,
  xml_error_string ( xml_get_error_code ( $parser ) ) ,
  xml_get_current_line_number ( $parser ) ) ) ;
}

xml_parser_free ( $parser ) ;
fclose ( $fp ) ;
?>
