Invision Power Services > XML handlers crash PHP?

I'm trying to write something which relies heavily on PHPs XML parsing functions. However, this particular function crashes PHP somehow. Not sure what causes it, so if anyone could explain, I'd appreciate it.

CODE

// ! Action Method
function init()
{
if(!$this->_running)
{
die("Core NOTINITED.");
}

xml_set_element_handler($this->_XML, array(&$this, "_startElement"), array(&$this, "_endElement"));
xml_set_character_data_handler($this->_XML, array(&$this, "_characterData"));
}

-- Yes, $this->_XML IS created.

Crashes it how? Does it give you an error or does it literally crash PHP itself?

Literally crashes the interpreter:

Translated:
PHP Script Interpreter has encountered an error and is canceled. We apologize for the inconvenience.

If you were in the middle of something - the usual stuff.

When I click on the link, I get this information:

CODE

szAppName : php.exe szAppVer : 4.3.2.2 szModName : ntdll.dll
szModVer : 5.1.2600.1217 offset : 00033aed

You have the XML extensions installed properly I assume?

PHP version 4.3.11 came out on March 31st with a ton of bugfixes, however I am not sure if this is one of them or not...

I should have, since function_exists('xml_parser_create') returns true.

I'm trying something else right now that I found elsewhere on the net:

CODE

xml_set_object($this->_XML, &$this);
xml_set_element_handler($this->_XML, "_startElement", "_endElement");
xml_set_character_data_handler($this->_XML, "_characterData");

Have you checked the Event Viewer in Computer Management to see if anything is in there?

The method I said I'd try actually works.

So my final function is:

CODE

// ! Action Method
function connect()
{
if(!$this->_running)
{
die("XQL core NOTINITED.");
}

xml_set_object($this->_XML, &$this);
xml_set_element_handler($this->_XML, "_startElement", "_endElement");
xml_set_character_data_handler($this->_XML, "_characterData");
}
