/**

This class defines the interface required by a client of the xml framework.

It allows a client to be placed in a chain with other clients, i.e. a Parser, a Validator, 

or a User, and therefore allows the flow of information between these links.

It provides callbacks analogous to that of the SAX 2.0 interface.
