# xml_set_character_data_handler

(PHP 3 >= 3.0.6, PHP 4, PHP 5)

xml_set_character_data_handler -- Set up character data handler

## Description

bool xml_set_character_data_handler ( resource parser, callback 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.
