16           sub StartTag {
17             my ($e, $name) = @_;
18             # do something with start tags
19           }

DESCRIPTION

33       This style uses the Pkg option to find subs in a given package to call
34       for each event.  If none of the subs that this style looks for is
35       there, then the effect of parsing with this style is to print a canoni‐
36       cal copy of the document without comments or declarations.  All the
37       subs receive as their 1st parameter the Expat instance for the document
38       they're parsing.
39
40       It looks for the following routines:
41
42       * StartDocument
43           Called at the start of the parse .
44
45       * StartTag
46           Called for every start tag with a second parameter of the element
47           type. The $_ variable will contain a copy of the tag and the %_
48           variable will contain attribute values supplied for that element.
49
50       * EndTag
51           Called for every end tag with a second parameter of the element
52           type. The $_ variable will contain a copy of the end tag.
53
54       * Text
55           Called just before start or end tags with accumulated non-markup
56           text in the $_ variable.
57
58       * PI
59           Called for processing instructions. The $_ variable will contain a
60           copy of the PI and the target and data are sent as 2nd and 3rd
61           parameters respectively.
62
63       * EndDocument
64           Called at conclusion of the parse.
