View source for Model with attribute for


In this case, the xf:model element itself would be treated as a control for purposes of meta-control bindings. Because models content is implicitly not rendered, any internal meta-controls would similarly fail to render. However, a meta-control with an associated @for statement could reference the model itself, without having to reference any given control. For instance,
 &lt;html xml:lang="en-us">
   &lt;head>
     &lt;xf:model id="data-model">
       ...
     &lt;/xf:model>
   &lt;/head>
   &lt;body>
     &lt;xf:label for="data-model" lang="en-us">&lt;h1>Center Point&lt;/h1>&lt;/xf:label>
     &lt;xf:label for="data-model" lang="en-uk">&lt;h1>Centre Point&lt;/h1>&lt;/xf:label>
     &lt;xf:label for="data-model" lang="fr">&lt;h1>Point Central&lt;/h1>&lt;/xf:label>
     &lt;xf:help for="data-model" lang="en-us en-uk">&lt;div>This is help content in English.&lt;/div>&lt;/xf:help>
     &lt;xf:help for="data-model" lang="fr">&lt;div>Il s'agit d'aider les contenus en français, traduit (probablement mal) dans GoogleTranslate.&lt;/div>&lt;/xf:help>
     ..
   &lt;/body>
 &lt;/html
'''Listing 8. Using lang for internationalization of content.'''


 &lt;body>
     &lt;h1>Center Point&lt;/h1>
     &lt;div class="help">This is help content in English.&lt;/div>
 &lt;/body>
'''Listing 9. rendered output.'''

Among other things, this would make it possible to utilize the common F1=help paradigm even when there is no active control on the page.
