This function is used to start a stream. When the stream is started, it generates a sequence of events. It is assumed that before starting a stream, the appropriate ContentHandler object is assigned to the contentHandler property of the Stream instance. Functions of this ContentHandler object are used to process individual events generated by Stream. Processing is assumed to be synchronous: the start must not return until the entire stream is generated and passed to ContentHandler functions.

The XML.Stream.prototype.start function is intentionally generic. It can be applied to every object that implements the Stream interface and has the Stream prototype in its prototype chain. The exact functionality may vary for each object category. For each object category that is derived from Stream (i.e., objects of this category contain the Stream prototype in their prototype chain) the exact behavior of the XML.Stream.prototype.start function must be specified.
