Using the <a href='core.html#DOMConfiguration'><code>DOMConfiguration</code></a> users can change behavior
of the <code>DOMParser</code>, <code>DOMSerializer</code> and
<a href='core.html#Document3-normalizeDocument'><code>Document.normalizeDocument()</code></a>. If a DOM
implementation supports XML Schemas and DTD validation, the table
below defines behavior of such implementation following various
parameter settings on the <a class='noxref' href='core.html#DOMConfiguration'><code>DOMConfiguration</code></a>. Errors
are effectively reported only if a <a href='core.html#ERROR-Interfaces-DOMErrorHandler'><code>DOMErrorHandler</code></a>
object is attached to the "<a href='core.html#parameter-error-handler'>error-handler</a>" parameter.
