I'm just going to give the code and output.  It should be self explanatory.
The array, $criteria, is having the issue.  I don't know what it's doing.  I
cannot seem to assign the value from the $data variable to the
$criteria[index] value.  You will see some attempts to debug the situation
which leads me to more puzzlement.
CODE:

// run when cdata is found
function characterDataHandler($parser, $data)
  {
  switch( $GLOBALS['currentTag'] )
    {
    case "MINSTARTDATE" : echo $data;/*$GLOBALS['criteria']['minstartdate']
= $data;*/break;
    case "MAXSTARTDATE" : $GLOBALS['criteria']['maxstartdate'] =
"junk";/*$data;*/break;
    case "MINSTAY" : $GLOBALS['criteria']['minstay'] = $data; break;
[snip]
echo "<pre>\n";
print_r($criteria);
echo "</pre>\n";
OUTPUT:
9/6/2003
Array
(
    [maxstartdate] => junk
    [minstay] =>
[snip]

$data is empty. How are you calling this function?
