    <para>
     Sets the default handler function for the XML parser
     <parameter>parser</parameter>.  <parameter>handler</parameter> is a
     string containing the name of a function that must exist when
     <function>xml_parse</function> is called for
     <parameter>parser</parameter>.
    </para>
    <para>
     The function named by <parameter>handler</parameter> must accept
     two parameters:
     <methodsynopsis>
      <methodname><replaceable>handler</replaceable></methodname>
      <methodparam><type>resource</type><parameter>parser</parameter></methodparam>

       <term>
        <parameter>parser</parameter>
       </term> 
       <listitem>
        <simpara>
         The first parameter, <replaceable>parser</replaceable>, is a
         reference to the XML parser calling the handler.

       <listitem>
        <simpara>
         The second parameter, <parameter>data</parameter>, contains
         the character data.  This may be the XML declaration,
         document type declaration, entities or other data for which
         no other handler exists.
        </simpara>

    </para>
    <para>
     If a handler function is set to an empty string, or &false;, the handler
     in question is disabled.
    </para>
    <para>
     &true; is returned if the handler is set up, &false; if
     <parameter>parser</parameter> is not a parser.
