Subject: REXML: stream parsing question

Hello,

I have this piece of code:

require "rexml/document"
include REXML

class MyListener
   def tag_start name, attrs
          print "start name: ",name.strip, "\n"
          print "start attrs: ",attrs, "\n"
   end
   def tag_end name
          puts "end: ", name.strip, "\n"
   end

   def text(text)
        print "text: ", text.strip, "\n"
   end
        
   def method_messing(methId)
          puts methId.idname
   end
end
ml = MyListener.new
Document.parse_stream(File.new("bla.xml"), ml)

it works just fine:
but when I comment the 
def text(text)
method out, I get the following error:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/rexml/text.rb:76:in `parse_stream': 
undefined method `text' for #<MyListener:0x40230480> (NameError)
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/rexml/element.rb:394:in 
`parse_stream'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/rexml/document.rb:179:in 
`parse_stream'
        from ./stream.rb:29

does anybody know what I did wrong. I thought it would jump into
"method_messing".
I have REXML 1.2.5
