(PHP 3>= 3.0.6, PHP 4 )

xml_set_notation_decl_handler -- set up notation declaration handler

Description

bool xml_set_notation_decl_handler ( resource parser, callback handler)

Sets the notation declaration 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.

A notation declaration is part of the document's DTD and has the following format:

<!NOTATION <parameter>name</parameter>
{ <parameter>systemId</parameter> | <parameter>publicId</parameter>?>

See section 4.7 of the XML 1.0 spec for the definition of notation declarations.

The function named by handler must accept five parameters: handler ( resource parser, string notation_name, string base, string system_id, string public_id)

parser

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

notation_name

This is the notation's name, as per the notation format described above.

base

This is the base for resolving the system identifier (system_id) of the notation declaration. Currently this parameter will always be set to an empty string.

system_id

System identifier of the external notation declaration.

public_id

Public identifier of the external notation declaration.

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.
