Two notes in one.

Here is the combination of xml_get_error_code() and xml_error_string() to get the error printout as an echo response

Also, I tested before and after xml_parser_free() -- as expected, the error is indeed cleared with the free() so check your error before calling xml_parser_free()

Pushing a deadline or I would add in sample faulted xml for full p.o.c.

somebody else want to step up for that??

<?php
$p
= xml_parser_create();
xml_parse_into_struct($p, $data, $vals, $index);
//This call prints error
echo 'ERROR if any '.xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($p));
xml_parser_free($p);
echo
"Index array\\n";
print_r($index);
echo
"\\nVals array\\n";
print_r($vals);
//No Error left here to be printed
echo 'ERROR if any '.xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($p));
exit;
?>
