/**
 *  <code>DOMErrorHandler</code> is a callback interface that the DOM 
 * implementation can call when reporting errors that happens while 
 * processing XML data, or when doing some other processing (e.g. validating 
 * a document). A <code>DOMErrorHandler</code> object can be attached to a 
 * <code>Document</code> using the "error-handler" on the 
 * <code>DOMConfiguration</code> interface. If more than one error needs to 
 * be reported during an operation, the sequence and numbers of the errors 
 * passed to the error handler are implementation dependent. 
 * <p> The application that is using the DOM implementation is expected to 
 * implement this interface. 
 * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-Core-20040407'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification</a>.
 * @since DOM Level 3

     * @param error  The error object that describes the error. This object 
     *   may be reused by the DOM implementation across multiple calls to 
     *   the <code>handleError</code> method. 
     * @return  If the <code>handleError</code> method returns 
     *   <code>false</code>, the DOM implementation should stop the current 
     *   processing when possible. If the method returns <code>true</code>,
