I don't see the advantages to using an exception. I think that a SAX processor should use fatal() (why the longer fatalError()?) - this has the advantage that you can, after the first message, go on looking for more fatal errors. Of course, a SAX processor must not, after the first fatal() callback, emit any more element() or charData() callbacks. I also think we should add a lineOffset argument, as someone suggested; but I don't think that SAX should *require* processors to do entity/line/offset tracking, since it's hard; SAX should specify that a value of -1 for any of these arguments means the processor doesn't know. -Tim xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
