This is an XML parser based on PHPs built-in xml extension.
It supports two basic modes of operation: "func" and "event". In "func" mode,
it will look for a function named after each element (xmltag_ELEMENT for start
tags and xmltag_ELEMENT_ for end tags), and in "event" mode it uses a set of
generic callbacks.
Since version 1.2.0 there's a new XML_Parser_Simple class that makes parsing
of most XML documents easier, by automatically providing a stack for the
elements.
Furthermore its now possible to split the parser from the handler object, so
you do not have to extend XML_Parser anymore in order to parse a document
with it.
