xml_parse
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
xml_parse — Start parsing an XML document
Description
xml_parse() parses an XML document. The handlers for the configured events are called as many times as necessary.
Parameters
- parser
-
A reference to the XML parser to use.
- data
-
Chunk of data to parse. A document may be parsed piece-wise by calling xml_parse() several times with new data, as long as the is_final parameter is set and TRUE when the last data is parsed.
- 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(), xml_error_string(), xml_get_current_line_number(), xml_get_current_column_number() and xml_get_current_byte_index().
Note: Entity errors are reported at the end of the data thus only if is_final is set and TRUE.
