# xml_set_character_data_handler

(PHP 3>= 3.0.6, PHP 4 )

xml_set_character_data_handler -- set up character data handler

## Description

bool xml_set_character_data_handler ( resource parser, string handler)

Sets the character data handler function for the XML parser `parser`. `handler` is a string containing the name of a function that must exist when xml_parse() is called for `parser`.

The function named by `handler` must accept two parameters: `handler` ( resource parser, string data)

`parser`

  The first parameter, `parser`, is a reference to the XML parser calling the handler.

`data`

  The second parameter, `data`, contains the character data as a string.

If a handler function is set to an empty string, or `FALSE`, the handler in question is disabled.

`TRUE` is returned if the handler is set up, `FALSE` if `parser` is not a parser.

> Note: Instead of a function name, an array containing an object reference and a method name can also be supplied.
