/**
 * Basic interface for CSS (Simple API for CSS) parsers.
 *
 * <p>All CSS parsers must implement this basic interface: it allows
 * applications to register handlers for different types of events
 * and to initiate a parse from a URI, or a character stream.</p>
 *
 * <p>All CSS parsers must also implement a zero-argument constructor
 * (though other constructors are also allowed).</p>
 *
 * <p>CSS parsers are reusable but not re-entrant: the application
 * may reuse a parser object (possibly with a different input source)
 * once the first parse has completed successfully, but it may not
 * invoke the parse() methods recursively within a parse.</p>
