note 24037 added to function.xml-set-object

Just adding a little note about my above written example. It needs some improvements. Because PHP passes by VALUE by default, when you pass an array like this: array($callback_handler, 'handler_method') PHP makes a copy of the callback_handler object and uses the handler_method in the copy. This is not an ideal situation for many reasons...which I will not get into here...but you should have an idea by now. The best way to fix this is to change a few things. In the function declaration change the parameter from $callback_handler to &$callback_handler. So now your declaration should look like this function set_callback_handler(&$callback_handler) { ... } Now each time you reference $callback_handler change it to &$callback_handler. For example: xml_set_element_handler( $this->xml_parser, array(&$callback_handler, 'start_element'), array(&$callback_handler, 'close_Element' )); This ensures that PHP will always use the same object. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xml-set-object.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+24037 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+24037 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+24037
