Well, actually it disables this functionality. Therefore, re-classifying as bug. The problem is that xml_parse_into_struct() sets up a default handler[1], but this handler doesn't do anything, since there is no actual PHP handler installed[2]. This is basically the same as this script[3]; simply removing the empty default handler[4] solves the issue.

In my opinion, this inconsistency is a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-16 07:35:57] sniper@php.net After some investigating of the issue: ext/xml just misses this functionality. No bug but feature request -> reclassified. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-03 14:59:37] joern_h at gmx dot net This bug still occurs with current PHP4 (Feb 3 2005 06:13:06) and PHP5 (Feb 3 2005 12:17:00) snapshots. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
