Abstract

The XML Events module defined in this specification provides XML languages with the ability to uniformly integrate event listeners and associated event handlers with Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 event interfaces [ DOM3EVENTS ]. The result is to provide an interoperable way of associating behaviors with document-level markup.

1.Introduction

This section is informative.

An event is the representation of some asynchronous occurrence (such as a mouse click on the presentation of the element, or an arithmetical error in the value of an attribute of the element, or any of unthinkably many other possibilities) that gets associated with an element ( targeted at it) in an XML document.

In the DOM model of events [ DOM3EVENTS ], the general behavior is that when an event occurs it is dispatched by passing it down the document tree in a phase called capture to the element where the event occurred (called its target ), where it then may be passed back up the tree again in the phase called bubbling . In general an event can be responded to at any element in the path (an observer ) in either phase by causing an action, and/or by stopping the event, and/or by cancelling the default action for the event. The following diagram illustrates this:

Event flow in DOM3: an event targeted at an element (marked 'target') in the tree passes down the tree from the root to the target in the phase called 'capture'. When it arrives at the target it is in the 'target' (or 'at-target') phase. If the event type allows it, the event then travels back up the tree by the same route in a phase called 'bubbling'. Any node in the route, including the root node and the target, may be an 'observer': that is to say, a handler may be attached to it that is activated when the event passes through in either phase. A handler can only listen for one phase. To listen for both you have to attach two handlers.

An action is some way of responding to an event; a handler is some specification for such an action, for instance using scripting or some other method. A listener is a binding of such a handler to an event targeting some element in a document.

HTML [ HTML4 ] binds events to an element by encoding the event name in an attribute name, such that the value of the attribute is the action for that event at that element. This method has two main disadvantages: firstly it hardwires the events into the language, so that to add a new event, you have to make a change to the language, and secondly it forces you to mix the content of the document with the specifications of the scripting and event handling, rather than allowing you to separate them out. SVG [ SVG ] uses a similar method.

The process of defining XHTML and related markup languages identified the need for an extensible event specification method. The design requirements were the following:

• Syntactically expose the DOM event model to an XML document [ XML ].
• Provide for new event types without requiring modification to the DOM or the DTD.
• Allow for integration with other XML languages.

The DOM specifies an event model that provides the following features:

• A generic event system,
• Means for registering event listeners and handlers,
• Means for routing events through a tree structure,
• Access to context information for each event, and
• A definition of event flow, as sketched above.

The elements and attributes defined in this specification are the method of binding a DOM level 3 event at an element to an event handler. They encapsulate various aspects of the DOM level 3 event interface, thereby providing markup-level specification of the actions to be taken during the various phases of event propagation.

This document neither specifies particular events, nor mandates any particular methods of specifying actions. These definitions are left to any markup language using the facilities described here.

2.Conformance Requirements

This section is normative .

The keywords "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [ RFC2119 ].

2.1.Document Conformance

XML Events is not a stand-alone document type. It is intended to be integrated into other host languages such as XHTML. A conforming XML Events document is a document that requires only the facilities described as mandatory in this specification and the facilities described as mandatory in its host language. Such a document must meet all the following criteria:

1. The document MUST conform to the constraints expressed in Appendix B - Schema Implementation or Appendix A - DTD Implementation , combined with the constraints expressed in its host language implementation.

2. If the host language does not incorporate XML Events elements and attributes into its own namespace, the document MUST contain an xmlns declaration for the XML Events namespace [ XMLNAMES ] . The namespace for XML Events is defined to be http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events . An example start tag of a root element might look like:

   <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
         xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" >
   

   Note that we expect this namespace to revert to the namespace of the previous recommendation once development of this specification is complete.

2.2.Host Language Conformance

When XML Events are included in a host language, all of the facilities required in this specification MUST be included in the host language . In addition, the mandatory elements and attributes defined in this specification MUST be included in the content model of the host language .

2.3.User Agent Conformance

A conforming user agent MUST support all of the features required in this specification.

3.The XML Events Module

This section is normative.

This specification defines a module called XML Events. The XML Events module uses the XML namespace [ XMLNAMES ] identifier http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events .

Examples in this document that use the namespace prefix " ev " all assume an xmlns declaration xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" somewhere suitable in the document involved. All examples are informative.

The remainder of this section describes the elements and attributes in this module, the semantics, and provides an abstract module definition as required in [ XHTMLMOD ].

The XML Events Module supports the following element and attributes:

Implementations: DTD , XML Schema

3.1.The listener Element

Element listener supports a subset of the DOM's EventListener interface. It is used to declare event listeners and register them with specific nodes in the DOM, and has the following attributes:

event

The required event attribute specifies one, or more, event types for which the listener is being registered.

observer

The optional observer attribute specifies the id of one, or more, elements with which the event listener is to be registered. If this attribute is not present, the observer is the element that the event attribute is on (see later under " Attaching Attributes Directly to the Observer Element "), or the parent of that element (see later under " Attaching Attributes Directly to the Handler Element ").

targetid

The optional targetid attribute specifies the id of one, or more, target elements of the event (i.e., the node that caused the event). If this attribute is present, only events that match both the event and targetid attributes will be processed by the associated event handler. Clearly because of the way events propagate, the target element should be a descendent node of the observer element, or the observer element itself.

Use of this attribute requires care; for instance, if you specify

<listener event="click" observer="para1"
targetid="link1"
handler="#clicker"/>

where 'para1' is some ancestor of the following node

<a
id="link1"
href="doc.html">The
<em>draft</em>
document</a>

and the user happens to click on the word "draft", the em element, and not the a , will be the target, and so the handler will not be activated; to catch all mouse clicks on the a element and its children, use observer="link1" , and no targetid attribute.

handler

The optional handler attribute specifies the URI reference of a resource that defines the action that should be performed if the event reaches the observer. (This specification does not mandate what form that element should take: see further the section " Event Handlers "). If this attribute is not present, the handler is the element that the event attribute is on (see later under " Attaching Attributes Directly to the Handler Element ").

phase

The optional phase attribute specifies when (during which DOM 3 event propagation phase) the listener will be activated by the desired event.

bubble

Listener is activated during the bubbling and target phases.

capture

Listener is activated during capturing phase.

default

Listener is activated during bubbling or target phases.

target

Listener is activated only during the target phase.

The default behavior is phase="default" .

Note that not all events bubble, in which case with phase="default" you can only handle the event by making the event's target the observer.

propagate

The optional propagate attribute specifies whether after processing all listeners at the current node, the event is allowed to continue on its path (either in the capture or the bubble phase).

stop

event propagation stops

continue

event propagation continues (unless stopped by other means, such as scripting, or by another listener).

The default behavior is propagate="continue" .

defaultAction

The optional defaultAction attribute specifies whether after processing of all listeners for the event, the default action for the event (if any) should be performed or not. For instance, in XHTML the default action for a mouse click on an a element or one of its descendents is to traverse the link.

cancel

if the event type is cancelable, the default action is cancelled

perform

the default action is performed (unless cancelled by other means, such as scripting, or by another listener).

The default value is defaultAction="perform" .

Note that not all events are cancelable, in which case this attribute is ignored.

Note that observer = "<element-id>" and event = "<event-type>" are similar to the begin = "<element-id>.<event-type>" attribute in SMIL EventTiming [ SMIL20 ].

3.1.1.Examples of listener Usage

1. This example attaches the handler in the element at "#doit" that will get activated when the event called activate occurs on the element with id="button1" , or any of its children. The activation will occur during bubbling, or if the event happened on the observer element itself, when the event reaches the element (phase target ).

   <listener
   event="DOMActivate"
   observer="button1"
   handler="#doit"/>
   

2. This attaches the handler at #overflow-handler that will get activated when the event overflow occurs on the element with id="expr1" and bubbles up to the element with id="prog1" .

   <listener event="overflow" observer="prog1" targetid="expr1"
   handler="#overflow-handler"/>
   

3. This attaches the handler at #popup that will get activated whenever an activate event occurs at the element with id="embargo" or any of its children. Since it will be activated during the capture phase, and propagation is stopped, this will have the effect (regardless of what the handler does) of preventing any child elements of the embargo element seeing any activate events.

   <listener event="DOMActivate" observer="embargo" handler="#popup"
   phase="capture"
   propagate="stop"/>
   

4. This attaches a handler from another document.

   <listener event="DOMActivate" observer="image1"
   handler="/handlers/events.xml#activate"/>
   

3.2.Attaching Attributes Directly to the Observer Element

All the attributes from the listener element with the exception of id may be used as global attributes, as defined in Namespaces in XML [ XMLNAMES ], to attach the attributes to other elements. In the schema implementations, this is done by defining the attribute collection XMLEvents .

Note that this means that the listener element is strictly speaking redundant, since the following

<anyelement
ev:event="click"
ev:observer="button1"
ev:handler="#clicker"/>

would have the same effect as

<ev:listener
event="click"
observer="button1"
handler="#clicker"/>

Nonetheless, for utility the listener element has been retained.

If the observer attribute is omitted (but not the handler attribute), then the element that the other attributes are attached to is the observer element.

3.2.1. Examples of Using Attributes Attached to an Observer Element

1. This first example will attach the handler identified by "#popper" to the a element, and cancel the default action for the event.

   <a href="doc.html" ev:event="DOMActivate" ev:handler="#popper"
   ev:defaultAction="cancel">The
   document</a>
   

2. This will attach the handler at #handle-overflow for the event overflow to the current element.

   <div
   ev:event="overflow"
   ev:handler="#handle-overflow">
   ...
   </div>
   

3.3.Attaching Attributes Directly to the Handler Element

If, when attaching the global attributes to an element, the handler attribute is omitted then the element that the other attributes are attached to is the handler element.

Note that, since the observer and targetid attributes are IDREFs, in this case the handler and observer/target elements must be in the same document (while in other cases, since the handler attribute is a URI, the handler element may be in another document).

If the observer attribute is also omitted, then the parent of the handler element is the observer element.

3.3.1. Examples of Using Attributes Attached to a Handler Element

1. In this case the element is the handler for the submit event on the element with id="form1" .

   <script type="application/x-javascript"
           ev:event="submit" ev:observer="form1">
      return docheck(event);
   </script>
   

2. In this case the action element is the handler for event q-submit , and the observer is the questionnaire element.

   <questionnaire submissionURL="/q/tally">
       <action ev:event="q-submit">
         ...
       </action>
       ...
   </questionnaire>
   

3. The script element is the handler for event click ; the img element is the observer.

   <img src="button.gif" alt="OK">
       <script ev:event="DOMActivate" type="application/x-javascript">
           doactivate(event);
       </script>
   </img>
   

4. The onevent element is the handler for event enterforward . The card element is the observer.

   <card>
       <onevent ev:event="enterforward">
           <go href="/url"/>
       </onevent>
       <p>
         Hello!
       </p>
   </card>
   

5. The catch element is the handler for the nomatch event. The observer is the field element.

   <form id="launch_missiles">
     <field name="password">
       <prompt>What is the code word?</prompt>
       <grammar>
         <rule id="root" scope="public">rutabaga</rule>
       </grammar>
       <help>It is the name of an obscure vegetable.</help>
       <catch ev:event="nomatch">
         <prompt>Security violation!</prompt>
         <submit next="apprehend_felon" namelist="user_id"/>
       </catch>
     </field>
     <block>
       <goto next="#get_city"/>
     </block>
   </form>
   

6. This example shows three handlers for different events. The observer for all three is the secret element.

   <secret ref="/login/password">
       <caption>Please enter your password</caption>
       <info ev:event="help">
           Mail help@example.com in case of problems
       </info>
       <info ev:event="hint">
           A pet's name
       </info>
       <info ev:event="alert">
           This field is required
       </info>
   </secret>
   

3.4.Summary of Observer and Handler Attribute Defaulting

The following table summarizes which elements play the role of observer or handler if the relevant attribute is omitted.

4.The XML Handlers Module

This section is normative.

This specification also defines a module called XML Handlers. The XML Handlers module also uses the XML namespace [ XMLNAMES ] identifier http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events .

The purpose of this module is to provide a declarative way to map specific events to a series of one or more actions. Those actions are declared either by the host language (e.g., [ XFORMS ]) or within the document using the XML Events module above. Implementing actual handlers for the events remains the purview of the host language, supported scripting languages, etc.

The XML Handlers Module supports the following elements and attributes:

Implementations: DTD , XML Schema

4.1.The action Element

The action element is used to group event handler elements (including other action elements) that will act in sequence as handlers for an event. The action element takes the following attributes:

event

The required event attribute specifies one, or more, event types this action will handle.

targetid

The optional targetid attribute specifies the id of one, or more, target elements of the event (i.e., the node that caused the event). If this attribute is present, only events that match both the event and targetid attributes will be processed. Clearly because of the way events propagate, the target element should be a descendant node of the observer element, or the observer element itself.

declare

When present, this boolean attribute makes the current element (and any elements it may contain) a declaration only.

if

The optional if attribute allows a condition to be specified. This condition must be met in order for the event handler to be activated. The condition is specified using an XPath Expression . There is no default value.

This attribute allows event handlers to be specified that respond not just to named events, but to more specific conditions, such as a mouse click with the control key pressed:

<action event="click" if="event('ctrlKey') = true()">
 . . .
</action>

The event function is described in XPath Event Function .

while

The optional while attribute allows a condition to be specified. This condition must be met in order for the event handler to be activated. The condition is specified using an XPath Expression . There is no default value.

This attribute allows event handlers to be specified that perform their action whilst some condition remains true.

EDITORS' NOTE: Can't think of an example that only makes use of what we have in this spec, i.e., the event() function. We may need to do something like delete a list in XForms.

4.2.The script Element

The script element contains or references scripts that may register one or more event handlers for a document through a scripting language that is supported by the implementation.

implements

The optional implements indicates that the script provides an implementation of the feature or features specified in this attribute. The script should only be loaded and used if the user agent does not have an implementation of the specified feature.

The event handler(s) may be defined within the contents of the script element or in an external file. If the src attribute is not set, user agents MUST interpret the contents of the element as the handler. If the src has a URI value, user agents MUST ignore the element's contents and retrieve the handler via the URI.

Note that the encoding attribute refers to the character encoding of the handler designated by the src attribute; it does not concern the content of the script element. Also note that the type attribute can be used to specify a list of available implementations for the script , allowing the user agent to choose among them (see type for more details).

4.3.The dispatchEvent Element

The dispatchEvent element triggers the event identified by the raise attribute, delivering it to the element identified by the to attribute.

The dispatchEvent element also defines two additional attributes:

bubbles

Optional boolean indicating if this event bubbles as defined in [ DOM3EVENTS ]. The default value will depend on the actual event being dispatched.

cancelable

Optional boolean indicating if this event is cancelable as defined in [ DOM3EVENTS ]. The default value will depend on the actual event being dispatched.

to

The IDREF of the element to which the event is dispatched. If this is not specified, it defaults to the parent of the dispatchEvent element

raise

The QName of the event to be triggered.

4.4.The addEventListener element

This element allows the registration of a listener on a specific event, as defined in [ DOM3EVENTS ].

4.5.The removeEventListener element

The removeEventListener element de-registers the handler identified by the required handler attribute for the event identified by the required event attribute.

4.6.The stopPropagation element

The stopPropagation element is used to prevent further propagation of an event during event flow. If this is called by any EventListener the event will cease propagating through the tree. The event will complete dispatch to all listeners on the current EventTarget before event flow stops. This action may be used during any stage of event flow.

4.7.The preventDefault element

If an event is cancelable, the preventDefault action is used to signify that the event is to be canceled, meaning any default action normally taken by the implementation as a result of the event will not occur. If, during any stage of event flow, the preventDefault action is called the event is canceled. Any default action associated with the event will not occur. Calling this action for a non-cancelable event has no effect. Once preventDefault has been called it will remain in effect throughout the remainder of the event's propagation. This action may be used during any stage of event flow.

5.Naming Event Types

This section is informative.

This specification does not normatively specify how language designers should name events (i.e., the values used in the event attribute).

However, future versions of DOM Events are likely to allow namespaced event names, so language designers are advised not to use the colon character ":" in event names.

A number of event types are defined in DOM 3 Events [ DOM3EVENTS ], to which you should refer for their names and semantics.

6.XPath Expressions

XML Events uses XPath expressions to specify conditionals ( if , while ). As described in section 1 of [ XPATH ], each XPath expression is evaluated within a context, which is made up of:

• a node (the context node)
• a pair of non-zero positive integers (the context position and the context size)
• a set of variable bindings
• a function library
• the set of namespace declarations in scope for the expression

XML Events XPath expressions have no context node, and so the context position is 0 and the context size is 0. There are no variable bindings, and the function library contains the functions described below. It is not necessary to provide namespace declarations.

EDITORS' NOTE: If any compelling use cases arise we will look at allowing context to be specified.

Host languages that import XML Events may provide a richer context, and MUST specify whether their context is the same as that provided here, or more.

6.1.Function Library

The XPath function library consists of the following functions:

• event

6.1.1.XPath event Function

object event(string)

Function event returns the value of a property of the current event object, as determined by the string argument. The value returned will be typed, depending on the property. For example, the MouseEvent interface [ DOM3EVENTS ] has the attribute shiftKey , which is a boolean . This can be accessed by passing the string value ' shiftKey ' to the event function. The result will be an XPath boolean.

A.DTD Implementation

This appendix is normative .

The DTD implementation of XML Events conforms to the requirements defined in [ XHTMLMOD ]. Consequently, it provides a Qualified Names sub-module, and a module file for the XML Events module defined in this Proposed Recommendation.

A.1.Qualified Names Module

Note that this module defines the parameter entity %xml-events-attrs.qname; . This entity is intended to be used in the attribute lists of elements in any host language that permits the use of event attributes on elements in its own namespace. In this case the Host Language driver should set a parameter entity %XML-EVENTS.prefixed; to INCLUDE and a parameter entity %XML-EVENTS.prefix; to a value that is the prefix for the XML Events attributes.
