Document Object Model for MathML

The following sections describe the interfaces that have been defined in the Document Object Model for MathML. Please refer to Chapter 8 Document Object Model for MathML for more information.

Bindings for IDL, Java and ECMAScript are located in Appendix E MathML Document Object Model Bindings.

D.1 IDL Interfaces

D.1.1 Miscellaneous Object Definitions

Interface MathMLDOMImplementation

Extends: DOMImplementation

This interface extends the DOMImplementation interface by adding a method to create a MathMLDocument.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLDOMImplementation: DOMImplementation {
  MathMLDocument createMathMLDocument();
};

Methods

createMathMLDocument

Creates a MathMLDocument with a minimal tree containing only a MathMLMathElement corresponding to a MathML math element. The MathMLMathElement is empty, having no child elements or non-default attributes; it is the root element of the document, and is the element accessed via the documentElement attribute of the MathMLDocument. Note that a MathMLDocument object should only be created for a stand-alone MathML document.

Return value

MathMLDocument

The MathMLDocument created.

This method raises no exceptions.

Interface MathMLDocument

Extends: Document

This interface extends the Document interface to add access to document properties relating to navigation. The documentElement attribute for a MathMLDocument should be the MathMLMathElement representing the top-level math element which is the root of the document.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLDocument: Document {
  readonly attribute DOMString referrer;
  readonly attribute DOMString domain;
  readonly attribute DOMString URI;
};

Attributes

referrer of type DOMString, readonly: The URI of the page that linked to this document, if available. This is null if the user navigated directly to the page. If this is not a stand-alone MathML document (e.g. is embedded in an XHTML document), this may be retrieved from the parent Document if available.
domain of type DOMString, readonly: The domain name of the server that served the document, or null if the server cannot be identified by a domain name, or if it is not available. If this is not a stand-alone MathML document (e.g. is embedded in an XHTML document), this may be retrieved from the parent Document if available.
URI of type DOMString, readonly: The complete URI of this document. This is null if this is not a stand-alone MathML document.

Interface MathMLNodeList

Extends: NodeList

This interface is provided as a specialization of the NodeList interface. The child Nodes of this NodeList must be MathMLElements or Text nodes.

Note that MathMLNodeLists are frequently used in the DOM as values of readonly attributes, encapsulating, for instance, various collections of child elements. When used in this way, these objects are always understood to be live, in the sense that changes to the document are immediately reflected in them.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLNodeList: NodeList {
};

D.1.2 Generic MathML Elements

Interface MathMLElement

Extends: Element

All MathML element interfaces derive from this object, which derives from the basic DOM interface Element.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLElement: Element {
  attribute DOMString className;
  attribute DOMString mathElementStyle;
  attribute DOMString id;
  attribute DOMString xref;
  attribute DOMString href;
  readonly attribute MathMLMathElement ownerMathElement;
};

Attributes

className of type DOMString: The class attribute of the element. See the discussion elsewhere in this document of the class attribute; see also the HTML definition of this attribute.
mathElementStyle of type DOMString: A string identifying the element's style attribute.
id of type DOMString: The element's identifier. See the discussion elsewhere in this document of the id attribute; see also the HTML definition.
xref of type DOMString: The xref attribute of the element. See the discussion elsewhere in this document of the xref attribute.
href of type DOMString: The xlink:href attribute of the element. See the discussion elsewhere in this document of the xlink:href attribute; see also the definition of this attribute in the XLink specification.
ownerMathElement of type MathMLMathElement, readonly: The MathMLMathElement corresponding to the nearest math element ancestor of this element. Should be null if this element is a top-level math element.

Interface MathMLContainer

This is an abstract interface containing functionality required by MathML elements that may contain arbitrarily many child elements. No elements are directly supported by this interface; all instances are instances of either MathMLPresentationContainer, MathMLContentContainer, or MathMLMathElement.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLContainer {
  readonly attribute unsigned long nArguments;
  readonly attribute MathMLNodeList arguments;
  readonly attribute MathMLNodeList declarations;
  MathMLElement getArgument(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLElement setArgument(in MathMLElement newArgument, in unsigned long index);
  MathMLElement insertArgument(in MathMLElement newArgument, in unsigned long index);
  void deleteArgument(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLElement removeArgument(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLDeclareElement getDeclaration(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLDeclareElement setDeclaration(in MathMLDeclareElement newDeclaration, in unsigned long index);
  MathMLDeclareElement insertDeclaration(in MathMLDeclareElement newDeclaration, in unsigned long index);
  MathMLDeclareElement removeDeclaration(in unsigned long index);
  void deleteDeclaration(in unsigned long index);
};

Attributes

nArguments of type unsigned long, readonly: The number of child elements of this element which represent arguments of the element, as opposed to qualifiers or declare elements. Thus for a MathMLContentContainer it does not contain elements representing bound variables, conditions, separators, degrees, or upper or lower limits (bvar, condition, sep, degree, lowlimit, or uplimit).
arguments of type MathMLNodeList, readonly: This attribute accesses the child MathMLElements of this element which are arguments of it, as a MathMLNodeList. Note that this list does not contain any MathMLElements representing qualifier elements or declare elements.
declarations of type MathMLNodeList, readonly: Provides access to the declare elements which are children of this element, in a MathMLNodeList. All Nodes in this list must be MathMLDeclareElements.

Methods

getArgument

This method returns the indexth child argument element of this element. This frequently differs from the value of Node::childNodes().item(index), as qualifier elements and declare elements are not counted.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

The one-based index of the argument to be retrieved.

Return value

MathMLElement

A MathMLElement representing the index-th argument of this element.

Exceptions

DOMException: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if index is greater than the number of child elements.

setArgument

This method sets newArgument as the index-th argument of this element. If there is currently an index-th argument, it is replaced by newArgument. This frequently differs from setting the node at Node::childNodes().item(index), as qualifier elements and declare elements are not counted.

Parameters

`MathMLElement`	`newArgument`	A MathMLElement representing the element that is to be set as the index-th argument of this element.
`unsigned long`	`index`	The index of the argument that is to be set to newArgument. The first argument is numbered 1. If index is one more than the current number of arguments, a new argument is appended.

Return value

MathMLElement

The MathMLElement child of this element that represents the new argument in the DOM.

Exceptions

DOMException

HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit a child element of the type of newArgument, if this is a MathMLContentContainer and newArgument is a qualifier element, or if newElement is a MathMLDeclareElement.

INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if index is greater than one more than the number of child elements.

insertArgument

This method inserts newArgument before the current index-th argument of this element. If index is 0, or if index is one more than the current number of arguments, newArgument is appended as the last argument. This frequently differs from setting the node at Node::childNodes().item(index), as qualifier elements and declare elements are not counted.

Parameters

`MathMLElement`	`newArgument`	A MathMLElement representing the element that is to be inserted as a child argument of this element.
`unsigned long`	`index`	The one-based index of the position before which newArgument is to be inserted. The first argument is numbered 1.

Interface MathMLMathElement

Extends: MathMLElement, MathMLContainer

This interface represents the top-level MathML math element.

It may become useful for interfacing between the Document Object Model objects encoding an enclosing document and the MathML DOM elements that are its children. It could also be used for some purposes as a MathML DOM surrogate for a Document object. For instance, MathML-specific factory methods could be placed here, as could methods for creating MathML-specific Iterators or TreeWalkers. However, this functionality is as yet undefined.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLMathElement: MathMLElement, MathMLContainer {
  attribute DOMString macros;
  attribute DOMString display;
};

Attributes

D.1.3 Presentation Elements

Interface MathMLPresentationElement

Extends: MathMLElement

This interface is provided to serve as a base interface for various MathML Presentation interfaces. It contains no new attributes or methods at this time; however, it is felt that the distinction between Presentation and Content MathML entities should be indicated in the MathMLElement hierarchy. In particular, future versions of the MathML DOM may add functionality on this interface; it may also serve as an aid to implementors.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLPresentationElement: MathMLElement {
};

D.1.3.1 Leaf Presentation Element Interfaces

Interface MathMLGlyphElement

Extends: MathMLPresentationElement

This interface supports the mglyph element Section 3.2.9 Adding new character glyphs to MathML (mglyph).

fontfamily of type DOMString: A string representing the font family.
index of type unsigned long: An unsigned integer giving the glyph's position within the font.

Interface MathMLSpaceElement

Extends: MathMLPresentationElement

This interface extends the MathMLPresentationElement interface for the MathML space element mspace. Note that this is not derived from MathMLPresentationToken, despite the fact that mspace is classified as a token element, since it does not carry the attributes declared for MathMLPresentationToken.

  attribute DOMString width;
  attribute DOMString height;
  attribute DOMString depth;
  attribute DOMString linebreak;

D.1.3.2 Presentation Token Element Interfaces

Interfaces representing the MathML Presentation token elements that may have content are described here.

Interface MathMLPresentationToken

Extends: MathMLPresentationElement

This interface extends the MathMLElement interface to include access for attributes specific to text presentation. It serves as the base class for all MathML presentation token elements. Access to the body of the element is via the nodeValue attribute inherited from Node. Elements that expose only the core presentation token attributes are directly supported by this object. These elements are:

mi: identifier element
mn: number element
mtext: text element

IDL Definition

interface MathMLPresentationToken: MathMLPresentationElement {

mathsize of type DOMString: The mathsize attribute for the element, if specified. Either "small", "normal" or "big", or of the form "number v-unit".
mathcolor of type DOMString: The mathcolor attribute for the element, if specified. The DOMString returned should be in one of the forms "#rgb" or "#rrggbb", or should be an html-color-name, as specified in Section 3.2.2.2 Color-related attributes.
mathbackground of type DOMString: The mathbackground attribute for the element, if specified. The DOMString returned should be in one of the forms "#rgb" or "#rrggbb", or should be an html-color-name, as specified in Section 3.2.2.2 Color-related attributes.
contents of type MathMLNodeList, readonly: Returns the child Nodes of the element. These should consist only of Text nodes, MathMLGlyphElements, and MathMLAlignMarkElements. Should behave the same as the base class's Node::childNodes attribute; however, it is provided here for clarity.

Interface MathMLOperatorElement

Extends: MathMLPresentationToken

This interface extends the MathMLPresentationToken interface for the MathML operator element mo.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLOperatorElement: MathMLPresentationToken {
  attribute DOMString form;
  attribute DOMString fence;
  attribute DOMString separator;
  attribute DOMString lspace;
  attribute DOMString rspace;
  attribute DOMString stretchy;

Interface MathMLStringLitElement

Extends: MathMLPresentationToken

This interface extends the MathMLPresentationToken interface for the MathML string literal element ms.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLStringLitElement: MathMLPresentationToken {
  attribute DOMString lquote;
  attribute DOMString rquote;
};

Attributes

D.1.3.3 Presentation Container Interfaces

Interfaces designed to represent MathML Presentation elements that can contain arbitrary numbers of child MathMLElements are included under the heading of Presentation Container Elements.

Interface MathMLPresentationContainer

Extends: MathMLPresentationElement, MathMLContainer

This interface represents MathML Presentation elements that may contain arbitrarily many child elements. Elements directly supported by this interface include mrow, mphantom and merror. All attributes and methods are derived from the base MathMLPresentationElement and MathMLContainer interfaces.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLPresentationContainer: MathMLPresentationElement, MathMLContainer {
};

Interface MathMLStyleElement

Extends: MathMLPresentationContainer

This interface extends the MathMLElement interface for the MathML style element mstyle. While the mstyle element may contain any attributes allowable on any MathML presentation element, only attributes specific to the mstyle element are included in the interface below. Other attributes should be accessed using the methods on the base Element class, particularly the Element::getAttribute and Element::setAttribute methods, or even the Node::attributes attribute to access all of them at once. Not only does this obviate a lengthy list below, but it seems likely that most implementations will find this a considerably more useful interface to a MathMLStyleElement.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLStyleElement: MathMLPresentationContainer {
  attribute DOMString scriptlevel;
  attribute DOMString displaystyle;
  attribute DOMString scriptsizemultiplier;
  attribute DOMString scriptminsize;

D.1.4 Content Elements

Interface MathMLContentElement

Extends: MathMLElement

This interface is provided to serve as a base interface for various MathML Content interfaces. It contains no new attributes or methods at this time; however, it is felt that the distinction between Presentation and Content MathML entities should be indicated in the MathMLElement hierarchy. In particular, future versions of the MathML DOM may add functionality on this interface; it may also serve as an aid to implementors.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLContentElement: MathMLElement {
};

D.1.4.1 Content Token Interfaces

Interface MathMLContentToken

Extends: MathMLContentElement

This is the interface from which the interfaces representing the MathML Content token elements (ci, cn and csymbol) are derived. These elements may contain MathML Presentation elements, Text nodes, or a combination of both. Thus the getArgument and insertArgument methods have been provided to deal with this distinction between these elements and other MathML Content elements.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLContentToken: MathMLContentElement {
  readonly attribute MathMLNodeList arguments;
  attribute DOMString definitionURL;
  attribute DOMString encoding;
  Node getArgument(in unsigned long index);
  Node insertArgument(in Node newArgument, in unsigned long index, in Node newArgument);
  Node setArgument(in Node newArgument, in unsigned long index, in Node newArgument);
  void deleteArgument(in unsigned long index);
  Node removeArgument(in unsigned long index);
};

Attributes

arguments of type MathMLNodeList, readonly: The arguments of this element, returned as a MathMLNodeList. Note that this is not necessarily the same as Node::childNodes, particularly in the case of the cn element. The reason is that the sep elements that are used to separate the arguments of a cn are not returned.
definitionURL of type DOMString: A URI pointing to a semantic definition for this content element. Note that there is no stipulation about the form this definition may take!
encoding of type DOMString: A string describing the syntax in which the definition located at definitionURL is given.

Methods

getArgument

A convenience method to retrieve the child argument at the position referenced by index. Note that this is not necessarily the same as the index-th child Node of this Element; in particular, sep elements will not be counted.

unsigned long

index

Position of desired argument in the list of arguments. The first argument is numbered 1.

Return value

Node

The Node retrieved.

This method raises no exceptions.

insertArgument

This method raises no exceptions.

setArgument

A convenience method to set an argument child at the position referenced by index. If there is currently an argument at this position, it is replaced by newArgument.

Node

The Node inserted. This is the element within the DOM.

This method raises no exceptions.

deleteArgument

A convenience method to delete the argument child located at the position referenced by index.

This interface supports the MathML Content elements that may contain child Content elements. The elements directly supported by MathMLContentContainer include: reln (deprecated), lambda, lowlimit, uplimit, degree, domainofapplication, and momentabout. Interfaces derived from MathMLContentContainer support the elements apply, fn, interval, condition, declare, bvar, set, list, vector, matrix, and matrixrow.

  attribute MathMLConditionElement condition;
  attribute MathMLElement opDegree;
  attribute MathMLElement domainOfApplication;
  attribute MathMLElement momentAbout;
  MathMLBvarElement getBoundVariable(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLBvarElement insertBoundVariable(in MathMLBvarElement newBVar, in unsigned long index);
  MathMLBvarElement setBoundVariable(in MathMLBvarElement newBVar, in unsigned long index);
  void deleteBoundVariable(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLBvarElement removeBoundVariable(in unsigned long index);
};

Attributes

nBoundVariables of type unsigned long, readonly

The number of bvar child elements of this element.

condition of type MathMLConditionElement

This attribute represents the condition child element of this node. See Section 4.2.3.2 Operators taking Qualifiers.

Exceptions on Setting

DOMException: HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit a child condition element. In particular, raised if this element is not a apply, set, or list.

opDegree of type MathMLElement

This attribute represents the degree child element of this node. This expresses, for instance, the degree of differentiation if this element is a bvar child of an apply element whose first child is a diff or partialdiff. If this is an apply element whose first child is a partialdiff, the opDegree attribute, if present, represents the total degree of differentiation. See Section 4.2.3.2 Operators taking Qualifiers.

Exceptions on Setting

DOMException: HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit a child degree element. In particular, raised if this element is not a bvar or apply.

domainOfApplication of type MathMLElement

This attribute represents the domainofapplication child element of this node, if present. This may express, for instance, the domain of integration if this element is an apply element whose first child is an integral operator (int). See Section 4.2.3.2 Operators taking Qualifiers.

Exceptions on Setting

DOMException: HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit a child domainofapplication element.

momentAbout of type MathMLElement

This attribute represents the momentabout child element of this node, if present. This typically expresses the point about which a statistical moment is to be calculated, if this element is an apply element whose first child is a moment. See Section 4.2.3.2 Operators taking Qualifiers.

Exceptions on Setting

DOMException: HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit a child momentabout element. In particular, raised if this element is not an apply whose first child is a moment.

Methods

getBoundVariable

This method retrieves the index-th MathMLBvarElement child of the MathMLElement. Note that only bvar child elements are counted in determining the index-th bound variable.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

The one-based index into the bound variable children of this element of the MathMLBvarElement to be retrieved.

Return value

MathMLBvarElement

The MathMLBvarElement representing the index-th bvar child of this element.

This method raises no exceptions.

insertBoundVariable

This method inserts a MathMLBvarElement as a child node before the current index-th bound variable child of this MathMLElement. If index is 0, newBVar is appended as the last bound variable child. This has the effect of adding a bound variable to the expression this element represents. Note that the new bound variable is inserted as the index-th bvar child node, not necessarily as the index-th child node. The point of the method is to allow insertion of bound variables without requiring the caller to calculate the exact order of child qualifier elements.

Parameters

`MathMLBvarElement`	`newBVar`	A MathMLBvarElement representing the `bvar` element being added.
`unsigned long`	`index`	The one-based index into the bound variable children of this element before which newBVar is to be inserted.

The MathMLBvarElement being added.

Exceptions

DOMException: HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this element does not permit child bvar elements.

setBoundVariable

This method sets the index-th bound variable child of this MathMLElement to newBVar. This has the effect of setting a bound variable in the expression this element represents. Note that the new bound variable is inserted as the index-th bvar child node, not necessarily as the index-th child node. The point of the method is to allow insertion of bound variables without requiring the caller to calculate the exact order of child qualifier elements. If there is already a bvar at the index-th position, it is replaced by newBVar.

Parameters

`MathMLBvarElement`	`newBVar`	The new MathMLBvarElement child of this element being set.
`unsigned long`	`index`	The one-based index into the bound variable children of this element at which newBVar is to be inserted.

This method deletes the index-th MathMLBvarElement child of the MathMLElement. This has the effect of removing this bound variable from the list of qualifiers affecting the element this represents.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

The one-based index into the bound variable children of this element of the MathMLBvarElement to be removed.

Return value

void

None.

This method raises no exceptions.

Interface MathMLPiecewiseElement

Extends: MathMLContentElement

The piecewise element represents the piecewise definition of a function. It contains child piece elements, each represented by a MathMLCaseElement, giving the various conditions and associated function value specifications in the function definition, and an optional otherwise child element, represented by a MathMLContentElement, giving the "default" value of the function - that is, the value to be assigned when none of the conditions specified in the piece child elements hold.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLPiecewiseElement: MathMLContentElement {
  readonly attribute MathMLNodeList pieces;
  attribute MathMLContentElement otherwise;
  MathMLCaseElement getCase(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLCaseElement setCase(in unsigned long index, in MathMLCaseElement case);
  void deleteCase(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLCaseElement removeCase(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLCaseElement insertCase(in unsigned long index, in MathMLCaseElement newCase);
  MathMLContentElement getCaseValue(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLContentElement setCaseValue(in unsigned long index, in MathMLContentElement value);
  MathMLContentElement getCaseCondition(in unsigned long index);
  MathMLContentElement setCaseCondition(in unsigned long index, in MathMLContentElement condition);
};

Attributes

pieces of type MathMLNodeList, readonly: A MathMLNodeList containing one MathMLCaseElement representing each of the piece element children of this MathMLPiecewiseElement. The otherwise child (if present) is not contained in this MathMLNodeList.
otherwise of type MathMLContentElement: Returns a MathMLContentElement representing the value to be taken by the piecewise function when none of the conditions described in the piece children is true.

Methods

getCase

A convenience method to retrieve the child piece at the position referenced by index.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

Position of desired case in the list of cases. The first piece is numbered 1; the otherwise child (if present) is not counted, regardless of its position. If index is greater than the number of pieces, a null MathMLCaseElement is returned; no error is generated.

Return value

MathMLCaseElement

The MathMLCaseElement retrieved.

This method raises no exceptions.

setCase

A convenience method to set the value of the child piece at the position referenced by index to the value of case.

Parameters

`unsigned long`	`index`	Position of the `piece` to be set to case. The first piece is numbered 1; the `otherwise` child (if present) is not counted, regardless of its position. If there is currently a `piece` at this position, it will be replaced by case. If index is one more than the number of `piece` child elements, a new one will be appended.
`MathMLCaseElement`	`case`	A MathMLCaseElement representing the new value of the indexth `piece` child.

Return value

MathMLCaseElement

The new MathMLCaseElement created.

Exceptions

DOMException: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if index is greater than one more than the number of pieces in this element.

deleteCase

A convenience method to delete the child piece at the position referenced by index. The deletion changes the indices of the following pieces.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

Position of the piece to be deleted. The first piece is numbered 1; the otherwise child (if present) is not counted, regardless of its position.

Return value

void

None.

Exceptions

DOMException: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if index is greater than the number of pieces in this element.

removeCase

A convenience method to remove the child piece at the position referenced by index and return it to the caller. The removal changes the indices of the following pieces.

Parameters

unsigned long

index

Position of the piece to be removed. The first piece is numbered 1; the otherwise child (if present) is not counted, regardless of its position.

Return value

MathMLCaseElement

The MathMLCaseElement removed.

Exceptions

DOMException: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: Raised if index is greater than the number of pieces in this element.

insertCase

A convenience method to insert a new piece child into this element.

Parameters

`unsigned long`	`index`	Position before which case is to be inserted. If index is 0, newCase is appended as the last `piece` child of this element. The `otherwise` child (if present) is not counted, regardless of its position.

Interface MathMLCaseElement

Extends: MathMLContentElement

The piece element represents one of a sequence of cases used in the piecewise definition of a function. It contains two child elements, each represented by a MathMLContentElement. The first child determines the subset of the domain affected, normally by giving a condition to be satisfied. The second gives the value of the function over the indicated subset of its domain.

IDL Definition

interface MathMLCaseElement: MathMLContentElement {
  attribute MathMLContentElement caseCondition;
  attribute MathMLContentElement caseValue;
};

Attributes

caseCondition of type MathMLContentElement: Accesses the MathMLContentElement representing the condition to be satisfied in order for this branch of the piecewise definition to be used.
caseValue of type MathMLContentElement: Accesses the MathMLContentElement representing the value to be taken by the piecewise function when the condition described by caseCondition is true.
