Table 109: WRITE-STATUS attribute values 

WRITE-STATUS value	Description
SAX-WRITE-IDLE	No writing has occurred.
SAX-WRITE-BEGIN	The START-DOCUMENT method has been called and writing has begun.
SAX-WRITE-TAG	The writer has written an opening tag. This is the only time that attributes can be inserted with INSERT-ATTRIBUTE and DECLARE-NAMESPACE.
SAX-WRITE-ELEMENT	The writer is within an element.
SAX-WRITE-CONTENT	The writer has written the content of an element. In other words, the WRITE-CHARACTERS method has been called.
SAX-WRITE-COMPLETE	The END-DOCUMENT method has been called and writing is complete.
SAX-WRITE-ERROR	The SAX-writer could not start or could not continue. Likely causes include: SAX-writer could not be loaded, the XML target could not be written to, a method call fails, etc. This is the status if there is an invalid XML generated while STRICT is TRUE. If the status is SAX-WRITE-ERROR then no attributes can be written and the only method that can be called is RESET.
