        If you create an object that implements this interface, then
        register the object with your XMLReader, the parser will call the
        methods in your object to report all warnings and errors. There
        are three levels of errors available: warnings, (possibly)
        recoverable errors, and unrecoverable errors. All methods take a
        SAXParseException as the only parameter."""

            locating the origin of document events.

            SAX parsers are strongly encouraged (though not absolutely
            required) to supply a locator: if it does so, it must supply
            the locator to the application by invoking this method before
            invoking any of the other methods in the DocumentHandler
            interface.

            The locator allows the application to determine the end
            position of any document-related event, even if the parser is
            not reporting an error. Typically, the application will use
            this information for reporting its own errors (such as
            character content that does not match an application's
            business rules). The information returned by the locator is
            probably not sufficient for use with a search engine.

            http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces feature is true (the

            start/endPrefixMapping event supplies the information to the

            necessary.
