32. XML Events Module

Contents

This section is normative for purposes of defining the integration of XML Events into XHTML 2. The semantics of XML Events itself is normatively defined in [XMLEVENTS].

This module includes the listener element as defined in [XMLEVENTS]. As permitted by XML Events 2, this element is incorporated into the XHTML namespace.
