DOMErrorHandler 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 DOMErrorHandler object can be attached to a
* Document using the "error-handler" on the
* DOMConfiguration 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.
* The application that is using the DOM implementation is expected to * implement this interface. *
See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification.
* @since DOM Level 3

/**
* This method is called on the error handler when an error occurs.
*
If an exception is thrown from this method, it is considered to be
* equivalent of returning true.
* @param error The error object that describes the error. This object
* may be reused by the DOM implementation across multiple calls to
* the handleError method.
* @return If the handleError method returns
* false, the DOM implementation should stop the current
* processing when possible. If the method returns true,
* the processing may continue depending on
* DOMError.severity.
