                          throws XPathException
        Notify the start of the content, that is, the completion of all attributes and namespaces.

        Specified by:
        startContent in interface Receiver
        Overrides:

        typeCode - integer code identifying the element's type within the name pool.
        properties - properties of the element node
        locationId - an integer which can be interpreted using a LocationProvider to return information such as line number and system ID. If no location information is available, the value zero is supplied.
