Interface DOMErrorHandler

public interface DOMErrorHandler

DOM Level 3 WD Experimental: The DOM Level 3 specification is at the stage of Working Draft, which represents work in progress and thus may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time.

`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).

The application that is using the DOM implementation is expected to implement this interface.How does one register an error handler in the core? Passed as an argument to super-duper-normalize or registered on the DOMImplementation?Document interface has an attribute errorHandler.

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification.
