  <h2 class="no-num no-toc" id="abstract">Abstract</h2>

  <p>This specification defines the 5th major version, first minor revision of the core
  language of the World Wide Web: the Hypertext Markup Language
  (HTML). In this version, new features continue to be introduced to help Web
  application authors, new elements continue to be introduced based on research
  into prevailing authoring practices, and special attention continues to be
  given to defining clear conformance criteria for user agents in an
  effort to improve interoperability.</p>

  <h2 id="introduction"><span class="secno">1 </span>Introduction</h2>


  
  <h3 id="background"><span class="secno">1.1 </span>Background</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The World Wide Web's markup language has always been HTML. HTML was primarily designed as a
  language for semantically describing scientific documents, although its general design and
  adaptations over the years have enabled it to be used to describe a number of other types of
  documents.</p>

  <p>The main area that has not been adequately addressed by HTML is a vague subject referred to as
  Web Applications. This specification attempts to rectify this, while at the same time updating the
  HTML specifications to address issues raised in the past few years.</p>


  <h3 id="audience"><span class="secno">1.2 </span>Audience</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification is intended for authors of documents and scripts that use the features
  defined in this specification<span class="impl">, implementors of tools that operate on pages that
  use the features defined in this specification, and individuals wishing to establish the
  correctness of documents or implementations with respect to the requirements of this
  specification</span>.</p>

  <p>This document is probably not suited to readers who do not already have at least a passing
  familiarity with Web technologies, as in places it sacrifices clarity for precision, and brevity
  for completeness. More approachable tutorials and authoring guides can provide a gentler
  introduction to the topic.</p>

  <p>In particular, familiarity with the basics of DOM is necessary for a complete understanding of
  some of the more technical parts of this specification. An understanding of Web IDL, HTTP, XML,
  Unicode, character encodings, JavaScript, and CSS will also be helpful in places but is not
  essential.</p>


  <h3 id="scope"><span class="secno">1.3 </span>Scope</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification is limited to providing a semantic-level markup language and associated
  semantic-level scripting APIs for authoring accessible pages on the Web ranging from static
  documents to dynamic applications.</p>

  <p>The scope of this specification does not include providing mechanisms for media-specific
  customization of presentation (although default rendering rules for Web browsers are included at
  the end of this specification, and several mechanisms for hooking into CSS are provided as part of
  the language).</p>

  <p>The scope of this specification is not to describe an entire operating system. In particular,
  hardware configuration software, image manipulation tools, and applications that users would be
  expected to use with high-end workstations on a daily basis are out of scope. In terms of
  applications, this specification is targeted specifically at applications that would be expected
  to be used by users on an occasional basis, or regularly but from disparate locations, with low
  CPU requirements. Examples of such applications include online purchasing systems, searching
  systems, games (especially multiplayer online games), public telephone books or address books,
  communications software (e-mail clients, instant messaging clients, discussion software), document
  editing software, etc.</p>


  <h3 id="history-0"><span class="secno">1.4 </span>History</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>For its first five years (1990-1995), HTML went through a number of revisions and experienced a
  number of extensions, primarily hosted first at CERN, and then at the IETF.</p>

  <p>With the creation of the W3C, HTML's development changed venue again. A first abortive attempt
  at extending HTML in 1995 known as HTML 3.0 then made way to a more pragmatic approach known as
  HTML 3.2, which was completed in 1997. HTML4 quickly followed later that same year.</p>

  <p>The following year, the W3C membership decided to stop evolving HTML and instead begin work on
  an XML-based equivalent, called XHTML. <!-- http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/future/#summary --> This
  effort started with a reformulation of HTML4 in XML, known as XHTML 1.0, which added no new
  features except the new serialization, and which was completed in 2000. After XHTML 1.0, the W3C's
  focus turned to making it easier for other working groups to extend XHTML, under the banner of
  XHTML Modularization. In parallel with this, the W3C also worked on a new language that was not
  compatible with the earlier HTML and XHTML languages, calling it XHTML2.</p>

  <p>Around the time that HTML's evolution was stopped in 1998, parts of the API for HTML developed
  by browser vendors were specified and published under the name DOM Level 1 (in 1998) and DOM Level
  2 Core and DOM Level 2 HTML (starting in 2000 and culminating in 2003). These efforts then petered
  out, with some DOM Level 3 specifications published in 2004 but the working group being closed
  before all the Level 3 drafts were completed.</p>

  <p>In 2003, the publication of XForms, a technology which was positioned as the next generation of
  Web forms, sparked a renewed interest in evolving HTML itself, rather than finding replacements
  for it. This interest was borne from the realization that XML's deployment as a Web technology was
  limited to entirely new technologies (like RSS and later Atom), rather than as a replacement for
  existing deployed technologies (like HTML).</p>

  <p>A proof of concept to show that it was possible to extend HTML4's forms to provide many of the
  features that XForms 1.0 introduced, without requiring browsers to implement rendering engines
  that were incompatible with existing HTML Web pages, was the first result of this renewed
  interest. At this early stage, while the draft was already publicly available, and input was
  already being solicited from all sources, the specification was only under Opera Software's
  copyright.</p>

  <p>The idea that HTML's evolution should be reopened was tested at a W3C workshop in 2004, where
  some of the principles that underlie the HTML5 work (described below), as well as the
  aforementioned early draft proposal covering just forms-related features, were presented to the
  W3C jointly by Mozilla and Opera. The proposal was rejected on the grounds that the proposal
  conflicted with the previously chosen direction for the Web's evolution; the W3C staff and
  membership voted to continue developing XML-based replacements instead.</p>

  <p>Shortly thereafter, Apple, Mozilla, and Opera jointly announced their intent to continue
  working on the effort under the umbrella of a new venue called the WHATWG. A public mailing list
  was created, and the draft was moved to the WHATWG site. The copyright was subsequently amended to
  be jointly owned by all three vendors, and to allow reuse of the specification.</p>

  <p>The WHATWG was based on several core principles, in particular that technologies need to be
  backwards compatible, that specifications and implementations need to match even if this means
  changing the specification rather than the implementations, and that specifications need to be
  detailed enough that implementations can achieve complete interoperability without
  reverse-engineering each other.</p>

  <p>The latter requirement in particular required that the scope of the HTML5 specification include
  what had previously been specified in three separate documents: HTML4, XHTML1, and DOM2 HTML. It
  also meant including significantly more detail than had previously been considered the norm.</p>

  <p>In 2006, the W3C indicated an interest to participate in the development of HTML5 after all,
  and in 2007 formed a working group chartered to work with the WHATWG on the development of the
  HTML5 specification. Apple, Mozilla, and Opera allowed the W3C to publish the specification under
  the W3C copyright, while keeping a version with the less restrictive license on the WHATWG
  site.</p>

  <!--FORK-->
  <p>For a number of years, both groups then worked together under the same editor: Ian Hickson.
  In 2011, the groups came to the conclusion that they had different goals: the W3C wanted to
  draw a line in the sand for features for a HTML5 Recommendation, while the WHATWG wanted to
  continue working on a Living Standard for HTML, continuously maintaining the specification
  and adding new features. In mid 2012, a new editing team was introduced at the W3C to take
  care of creating a HTML5 Recommendation and prepare a Working Draft for the next HTML
  version.</p>

  <p>Since then, the W3C HTML WG has been cherry picking patches from the WHATWG that resolved
  bugs registered on the W3C HTML specification or more accurately represented implemented
  reality in UAs. At time of publication of this document, patches from the
  <a href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/">WHATWG HTML specification</a>
  have been merged until revision <a href="http://html5.org/r/8137">8137</a> inclusive. The W3C
  HTML editors have also added patches that resulted from discussions and decisions made by
  the W3C HTML WG as well a bug fixes from bugs not shared by the WHATWG.
  </p>

  <p>A separate document is published to document the differences between the HTML specified
  in this document and the language described in the HTML4 specification. <a href="#refsHTMLDIFF">[HTMLDIFF]</a></p>

  <h3 id="design-notes"><span class="secno">1.5 </span>Design notes</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>It must be admitted that many aspects of HTML appear at first glance to be nonsensical and
  inconsistent.</p>

  <p>HTML, its supporting DOM APIs, as well as many of its supporting technologies, have been
  developed over a period of several decades by a wide array of people with different priorities
  who, in many cases, did not know of each other's existence.</p>

  <p>Features have thus arisen from many sources, and have not always been designed in especially
  consistent ways. Furthermore, because of the unique characteristics of the Web, implementation
  bugs have often become de-facto, and now de-jure, standards, as content is often unintentionally
  written in ways that rely on them before they can be fixed.</p>

  <p>Despite all this, efforts have been made to adhere to certain design goals. These are described
  in the next few subsections.</p>


  <h4 id="serializability-of-script-execution"><span class="secno">1.5.1 </span>Serializability of script execution</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>To avoid exposing Web authors to the complexities of multithreading, the HTML and DOM APIs are
  designed such that no script can ever detect the simultaneous execution of other scripts. Even
  with <span title="Worker">workers</span>, the intent is that the behavior of implementations can
  be thought of as completely serializing the execution of all scripts in all <a href="#browsing-context" title="browsing
  context">browsing contexts</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code title="dom-navigator-yieldForStorageUpdates"><a href="#dom-navigator-yieldforstorageupdates">navigator.yieldForStorageUpdates()</a></code> method, in
  this model, is equivalent to allowing other scripts to run while the calling script is
  blocked.</p>


  <h4 id="compliance-with-other-specifications"><span class="secno">1.5.2 </span>Compliance with other specifications</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification interacts with and relies on a wide variety of other specifications. In
  certain circumstances, unfortunately, conflicting needs have led to this specification violating
  the requirements of these other specifications. Whenever this has occurred, the transgressions
  have each been noted as a "<dfn id="willful-violation">willful violation</dfn>", and the reason for the violation has
  been noted.</p>




  <h3 id="html-vs-xhtml"><span class="secno">1.6 </span>HTML vs XHTML</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification defines an abstract language for describing documents and applications, and
  some APIs for interacting with in-memory representations of resources that use this language.</p>

  <p>The in-memory representation is known as "DOM HTML", or "the DOM" for short.</p>

  <p>There are various concrete syntaxes that can be used to transmit resources that use this
  abstract language, two of which are defined in this specification.</p>

  <p>The first such concrete syntax is the HTML syntax. This is the format suggested for most
  authors. It is compatible with most legacy Web browsers. If a document is transmitted with the
  <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code> <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>, then it will be processed as an HTML document by
  Web browsers. This specification defines version 5.1 of the HTML syntax, known as "HTML5.1".</p>

  <p>The second concrete syntax is the XHTML syntax, which is an application of XML. When a document
  is transmitted with an <a href="#xml-mime-type">XML MIME type</a>, such as <code><a href="#application/xhtml+xml">application/xhtml+xml</a></code>,
  then it is treated as an XML document by Web browsers, to be parsed by an XML processor. Authors
  are reminded that the processing for XML and HTML differs; in particular, even minor syntax errors
  will prevent a document labeled as XML from being rendered fully, whereas they would be ignored in
  the HTML syntax. This specification defines version 5.1 of the XHTML syntax, known as
  "XHTML5.1".</p>

  <p>The DOM, the HTML syntax, and the XHTML syntax cannot all represent the same content. For
  example, namespaces cannot be represented using the HTML syntax, but they are supported in the DOM
  and in the XHTML syntax. Similarly, documents that use the <code><a href="#the-noscript-element">noscript</a></code> feature can be
  represented using the HTML syntax, but cannot be represented with the DOM or in the XHTML syntax.
  Comments that contain the string "<code title="">--&gt;</code>" can only be represented in the
  DOM, not in the HTML and XHTML syntaxes.</p>


  <h3 id="structure-of-this-specification"><span class="secno">1.7 </span>Structure of this specification</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification is divided into the following major sections:</p>

  <dl>


   <dt><a href="#introduction">Introduction</a></dt>

   <dd>Non-normative materials providing a context for the HTML standard.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#infrastructure">Common infrastructure</a></dt>

   <dd>The conformance classes, algorithms, definitions, and the common underpinnings of the rest of
   the specification.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#dom">Semantics, structure, and APIs of HTML documents</a></dt>

   <dd>Documents are built from elements. These elements form a tree using the DOM. This section
   defines the features of this DOM, as well as introducing the features common to all elements, and
   the concepts used in defining elements.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#semantics">The elements of HTML</a></dt>

   <dd>Each element has a predefined meaning, which is explained in this section. Rules for authors
   on how to use the element<span class="impl">, along with user agent requirements for how to
   handle each element,</span> are also given. This includes large signature features of HTML such
   as video playback and subtitles, form controls and form submission, and a 2D graphics API known
   as the HTML canvas.</dd>


<!--MD-->


   <dt><a href="#browsers">Loading Web pages</a></dt>

   <dd>HTML documents do not exist in a vacuum — this section defines many of the features
   that affect environments that deal with multiple pages, such as Web browsers and offline
   caching of Web applications.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#webappapis">Web application APIs</a></dt>

   <dd>This section introduces basic features for scripting of applications in HTML.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#editing">User interaction</a></dt>

   <dd>HTML documents can provide a number of mechanisms for users to interact with and modify
   content, which are described in this section, such as how focus works, and drag-and-drop.</dd>




<!--POSTMSG-->




   <dt><a href="#syntax">The HTML syntax</a></dt>
   <dt><a href="#xhtml">The XHTML syntax</a></dt>

   <dd>All of these features would be for naught if they couldn't be represented in a serialized
   form and sent to other people, and so these sections define the syntaxes of HTML and XHTML<span class="impl">, along with rules for how to parse content using those syntaxes</span>.</dd>


   <dt><a href="#rendering">Rendering</a></dt>

   <dd>This section defines the default rendering rules for Web browsers.</dd>


  </dl>

  <p>There are also some appendices, listing <a href="#obsolete">obsolete features</a> and <a href="#iana">IANA considerations</a>, and several indices.</p>



  <h4 id="how-to-read-this-specification"><span class="secno">1.7.1 </span>How to read this specification</h4>

  <p>This specification should be read like all other specifications. First, it should be read
  cover-to-cover, multiple times. Then, it should be read backwards at least once. Then it should be
  read by picking random sections from the contents list and following all the cross-references.</p>

  <p>As described in the conformance requirements section below, this specification describes
  conformance criteria for a variety of conformance classes. In particular, there are conformance
  requirements that apply to <em>producers</em>, for example authors and the documents they create,
  and there are conformance requirements that apply to <em>consumers</em>, for example Web browsers.
  They can be distinguished by what they are requiring: a requirement on a producer states what is
  allowed, while a requirement on a consumer states how software is to act.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, "the <code title="">foo</code> attribute's value must be a <a href="#valid-integer">valid
   integer</a>" is a requirement on producers, as it lays out the allowed values; in contrast,
   the requirement "the <code title="">foo</code> attribute's value must be parsed using the
   <a href="#rules-for-parsing-integers">rules for parsing integers</a>" is a requirement on consumers, as it describes how to
   process the content.</p>

  </div>

  <p><strong>Requirements on producers have no bearing whatsoever on consumers.</strong></p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Continuing the above example, a requirement stating that a particular attribute's value is
   constrained to being a <a href="#valid-integer">valid integer</a> emphatically does <em>not</em> imply anything
   about the requirements on consumers. It might be that the consumers are in fact required to treat
   the attribute as an opaque string, completely unaffected by whether the value conforms to the
   requirements or not. It might be (as in the previous example) that the consumers are required to
   parse the value using specific rules that define how invalid (non-numeric in this case) values
   are to be processed.</p>

  </div>



  <h4 id="typographic-conventions"><span class="secno">1.7.2 </span>Typographic conventions</h4>

  <p>This is a definition, requirement, or explanation.</p>

  <p class="note">This is a note.</p>

  <h3 id="fingerprint"><span class="secno">1.8 </span>Privacy concerns</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Some features of HTML trade user convenience for a measure of user privacy.</p>

  <p>In general, due to the Internet's architecture, a user can be distinguished from another by the
  user's IP address. IP addresses do not perfectly match to a user; as a user moves from device to
  device, or from network to network, their IP address will change; similarly, NAT routing, proxy
  servers, and shared computers enable packets that appear to all come from a single IP address to
  actually map to multiple users. Technologies such as onion routing can be used to further
  anonymize requests so that requests from a single user at one node on the Internet appear to come
  from many disparate parts of the network.</p>

  <p>However, the IP address used for a user's requests is not the only mechanism by which a user's
  requests could be related to each other. Cookies, for example, are designed specifically to enable
  this, and are the basis of most of the Web's session features that enable you to log into a site
  with which you have an account.</p>

  <p>There are other mechanisms that are more subtle. Certain characteristics of a user's system can
  be used to distinguish groups of users from each other; by collecting enough such information, an
  individual user's browser's "digital fingerprint" can be computed, which can be as good, if not
  better, as an IP address in ascertaining which requests are from the same user.</p>

  <p>Grouping requests in this manner, especially across multiple sites, can be used for both benign
  (and even arguably positive) purposes, as well as for malevolent purposes. An example of a
  reasonably benign purpose would be determining whether a particular person seems to prefer sites
  with dog illustrations as opposed to sites with cat illustrations (based on how often they visit
  the sites in question) and then automatically using the preferred illustrations on subsequent
  visits to participating sites. Malevolent purposes, however, could include governments combining
  information such as the person's home address (determined from the addresses they use when getting
  driving directions on one site) with their apparent political affiliations (determined by
  examining the forum sites that they participate in) to determine whether the person should be
  prevented from voting in an election.</p>

  <p>Since the malevolent purposes can be remarkably evil, user agent implementors are encouraged to
  consider how to provide their users with tools to minimize leaking information that could be used
  to fingerprint a user.</p>

  <p>Unfortunately, as the first paragraph in this section implies, sometimes there is great benefit
  to be derived from exposing the very information that can also be used for fingerprinting
  purposes, so it's not as easy as simply blocking all possible leaks. For instance, the ability to
  log into a site to post under a specific identity requires that the user's requests be
  identifiable as all being from the same user, more or less by definition. More subtly, though,
  information such as how wide text is, which is necessary for many effects that involve drawing
  text onto a canvas (e.g. any effect that involves drawing a border around the text) also leaks
  information that can be used to group a user's requests. (In this case, by potentially exposing,
  via a brute force search, which fonts a user has installed, information which can vary
  considerably from user to user.)</p>

  <p>Features in this specification which can be <dfn id="fingerprinting-vector" title="fingerprinting vector">used to
  fingerprint the user</dfn> are marked as this paragraph is.
  <a class="fingerprint" href="#fingerprinting-vector" title="fingerprinting vector"><img alt="(This is a fingerprinting vector.)" height="64" src="images/fingerprint.png" width="46"></a>
  </p>

  <p>Other features in the platform can be used for the same purpose, though, including, though not
  limited to:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>The exact list of which features a user agents supports.</li>

   <li>The maximum allowed stack depth for recursion in script.</li>

   object. <a href="#refsMQ">[MQ]</a> <a href="#refsCSSOMVIEW">[CSSOMVIEW]</a></li>

   <li>The user's time zone.</li>

  <h3 id="a-quick-introduction-to-html"><span class="secno">1.9 </span>A quick introduction to HTML</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>A basic HTML document looks like this:</p>

  <pre id="intro-early-example">&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;Sample page&lt;/title&gt;
 &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Sample page&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;This is a &lt;a href="demo.html"&gt;simple&lt;/a&gt; sample.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;!-- this is a comment --&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>

  <p>HTML documents consist of a tree of elements and text. Each element is denoted in the source by
  a <a href="#syntax-start-tag" title="syntax-start-tag">start tag</a>, such as "<code title="">&lt;body&gt;</code>", and
  an <a href="#syntax-end-tag" title="syntax-end-tag">end tag</a>, such as "<code title="">&lt;/body&gt;</code>".
  (Certain start tags and end tags can in certain cases be <a href="#syntax-tag-omission" title="syntax-tag-omission">omitted</a> and are implied by other tags.)</p>

  <p>Tags have to be nested such that elements are all completely within each other, without
  overlapping:</p>

  <pre class="bad">&lt;p&gt;This is &lt;em&gt;very &lt;strong&gt;wrong&lt;/em&gt;!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>
  <pre>&lt;p&gt;This &lt;em&gt;is &lt;strong&gt;correct&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>This specification defines a set of elements that can be used in HTML, along with rules about
  the ways in which the elements can be nested.</p>

  <p>Elements can have attributes, which control how the elements work. In the example below, there
  is a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a>, formed using the <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element and its <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute:</p>

  <pre>&lt;a href="demo.html"&gt;simple&lt;/a&gt;</pre>

  <p><a href="#syntax-attributes" title="syntax-attributes">Attributes</a> are placed inside the start tag, and consist
  of a <a href="#syntax-attribute-name" title="syntax-attribute-name">name</a> and a <a href="#syntax-attribute-value" title="syntax-attribute-value">value</a>, separated by an "<code title="">=</code>" character.
  The attribute value can remain <a href="#unquoted">unquoted</a> if it doesn't contain <a href="#space-character" title="space character">space characters</a> or any of <code title="">"</code> <code title="">'</code> <code title="">`</code> <code title="">=</code> <code title="">&lt;</code> or
  <code title="">&gt;</code>. Otherwise, it has to be quoted using either single or double quotes.
  The value, along with the "<code title="">=</code>" character, can be omitted altogether if the
  value is the empty string.</p>

  <pre>&lt;!-- empty attributes --&gt;
&lt;input name=address disabled&gt;
&lt;input name=address disabled=""&gt;

&lt;!-- attributes with a value --&gt;
&lt;input name=address maxlength=200&gt;
&lt;input name=address maxlength='200'&gt;
&lt;input name=address maxlength="200"&gt;</pre>

  <p>HTML user agents (e.g. Web browsers) then <i>parse</i> this markup, turning it into a DOM
  (Document Object Model) tree. A DOM tree is an in-memory representation of a document.</p>

  <p>DOM trees contain several kinds of nodes, in particular a <code><a href="#documenttype">DocumentType</a></code> node,
  <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code> nodes, <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes, <code><a href="#comment-0">Comment</a></code> nodes, and in some cases
  <code><a href="#processinginstruction">ProcessingInstruction</a></code> nodes.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#intro-early-example">markup snippet at the top of this section</a> would be
  turned into the following DOM tree:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t10">DOCTYPE: <code title="">html</code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣␣</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">Sample page</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣␣</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">Sample page</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣␣</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">This is a <!--grammar-check-override--></span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">href</code>="<code class="attribute value">demo.html</code>"</span><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">simple</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title=""> sample.</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣␣</span></li><li class="t8"><code><a href="#comment-0">#comment</a></code>: <span title=""> this is a comment </span></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">⏎␣⏎</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The <a href="#root-element">root element</a> of this tree is the <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code> element, which is the
  element always found at the root of HTML documents. It contains two elements, <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code>
  and <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, as well as a <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node between them.</p>

  <p>There are many more <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes in the DOM tree than one would initially expect,
  because the source contains a number of spaces (represented here by "␣") and line breaks
  ("⏎") that all end up as <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes in the DOM. However, for historical
  reasons not all of the spaces and line breaks in the original markup appear in the DOM. In
  particular, all the whitespace before <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> start tag ends up being dropped silently,
  and all the whitespace after the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> end tag ends up placed at the end of the
  <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element contains a <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code> element, which itself contains a
  <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node with the text "Sample page". Similarly, the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element
  contains an <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> element, a <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element, and a comment.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>This DOM tree can be manipulated from scripts in the page. Scripts (typically in JavaScript)
  are small programs that can be embedded using the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element or using <a href="#event-handler-content-attributes">event
  handler content attributes</a>. For example, here is a form with a script that sets the value
  of the form's <code><a href="#the-output-element">output</a></code> element to say "Hello World":</p>

  <pre>&lt;<a href="#the-form-element">form</a> <a href="#attr-form-name" title="attr-form-name">name</a>="main"&gt;
 Result: &lt;<a href="#the-output-element">output</a> <a href="#attr-fe-name" title="attr-fe-name">name</a>="result"&gt;&lt;/output&gt;
 &lt;<a href="#the-script-element">script</a>&gt;
  <a href="#document" title="Document">document</a>.<a href="#dom-document-forms" title="dom-document-forms">forms</a>.main.<a href="#dom-form-elements" title="dom-form-elements">elements</a>.result.<a href="#dom-output-value" title="dom-output-value">value</a> = 'Hello World';
 &lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>Each element in the DOM tree is represented by an object, and these objects have APIs so that
  they can be manipulated. For instance, a link (e.g. the <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element in the tree above)
  can have its "<code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code>" attribute changed in several
  ways:</p>

  <pre>var a = <a href="#document" title="Document">document</a>.<a href="#dom-document-links" title="dom-document-links">links</a>[0]; // obtain the first link in the document
a.<a href="#dom-url-href" title="dom-url-href">href</a> = 'sample.html'; // change the destination URL of the link
a.<a href="#dom-url-protocol" title="dom-url-protocol">protocol</a> = 'https'; // change just the scheme part of the URL
a.setAttribute('href', 'http://example.com/'); // change the content attribute directly</pre>

  <p>Since DOM trees are used as the way to represent HTML documents when they are processed and
  presented by implementations (especially interactive implementations like Web browsers), this
  specification is mostly phrased in terms of DOM trees, instead of the markup described above.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>HTML documents represent a media-independent description of interactive content. HTML documents
  might be rendered to a screen, or through a speech synthesizer, or on a braille display. To
  influence exactly how such rendering takes place, authors can use a styling language such as
  CSS.</p>

  <p>In the following example, the page has been made yellow-on-blue using CSS.</p>

  <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;Sample styled page&lt;/title&gt;
  &lt;style&gt;
   body { background: navy; color: yellow; }
  &lt;/style&gt;
 &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Sample styled page&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;This page is just a demo.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>

  <p>For more details on how to use HTML, authors are encouraged to consult tutorials and guides.
  Some of the examples included in this specification might also be of use, but the novice author is
  cautioned that this specification, by necessity, defines the language with a level of detail that
  might be difficult to understand at first.</p>

  <h4 id="writing-secure-applications-with-html"><span class="secno">1.9.1 </span>Writing secure applications with HTML</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>When HTML is used to create interactive sites, care needs to be taken to avoid introducing
  vulnerabilities through which attackers can compromise the integrity of the site itself or of the
  site's users.</p>

  <p>A comprehensive study of this matter is beyond the scope of this document, and authors are
  strongly encouraged to study the matter in more detail. However, this section attempts to provide
  a quick introduction to some common pitfalls in HTML application development.</p>

  <p>The security model of the Web is based on the concept of "origins", and correspondingly many of
  the potential attacks on the Web involve cross-origin actions. <a href="#refsORIGIN">[ORIGIN]</a></p>

  <dl>

   <dt>Not validating user input</dt>
   <dt>Cross-site scripting (XSS)</dt>
   <dt>SQL injection</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>When accepting untrusted input, e.g. user-generated content such as text comments, values in
    URL parameters, messages from third-party sites, etc, it is imperative that the data be
    validated before use, and properly escaped when displayed. Failing to do this can allow a
    hostile user to perform a variety of attacks, ranging from the potentially benign, such as
    providing bogus user information like a negative age, to the serious, such as running scripts
    every time a user looks at a page that includes the information, potentially propagating the
    attack in the process, to the catastrophic, such as deleting all data in the server.</p>

    <p>When writing filters to validate user input, it is imperative that filters always be
    whitelist-based, allowing known-safe constructs and disallowing all other input. Blacklist-based
    filters that disallow known-bad inputs and allow everything else are not secure, as not
    everything that is bad is yet known (for example, because it might be invented in the
    future).</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, suppose a page looked at its URL's query string to determine what to display,
     and the site then redirected the user to that page to display a message, as in:</p>

     <pre>&lt;ul&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="message.cgi?say=Hello"&gt;Say Hello&lt;/a&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="message.cgi?say=Welcome"&gt;Say Welcome&lt;/a&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="message.cgi?say=Kittens"&gt;Say Kittens&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</pre>

     <p>If the message was just displayed to the user without escaping, a hostile attacker could
     then craft a URL that contained a script element:</p>

     <pre>http://example.com/message.cgi?say=%3Cscript%3Ealert%28%27Oh%20no%21%27%29%3C/script%3E</pre>

     <p>If the attacker then convinced a victim user to visit this page, a script of the attacker's
     choosing would run on the page. Such a script could do any number of hostile actions, limited
     only by what the site offers: if the site is an e-commerce shop, for instance, such a script
     could cause the user to unknowingly make arbitrarily many unwanted purchases.</p>

     <p>This is called a cross-site scripting attack.</p>

    </div>

    <p>There are many constructs that can be used to try to trick a site into executing code. Here
    are some that authors are encouraged to consider when writing whitelist filters:</p>

    <ul>

     <li>When allowing harmless-seeming elements like <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code>, it is important to whitelist
     any provided attributes as well. If one allowed all attributes then an attacker could, for
     instance, use the <code title="handler-onload"><a href="#handler-onload">onload</a></code> attribute to run arbitrary
     script.</li>

     <li>When allowing URLs to be provided (e.g. for links), the scheme of each URL also needs to be
     explicitly whitelisted, as there are many schemes that can be abused. The most prominent
     example is "<code title="javascript-protocol">javascript:</code>", but user agents can
     implement (and indeed, have historically implemented) others.</li> <!-- IE had vbscript:,
     Netscape had livescript:, etc. -->

     <li>Allowing a <code><a href="#the-base-element">base</a></code> element to be inserted means any <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements
     in the page with relative links can be hijacked, and similarly that any form submissions can
     get redirected to a hostile site.</li>

    </ul>

   </dd>


   <dt>Cross-site request forgery (CSRF)</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>If a site allows a user to make form submissions with user-specific side-effects, for example
    posting messages on a forum under the user's name, making purchases, or applying for a passport,
    it is important to verify that the request was made by the user intentionally, rather than by
    another site tricking the user into making the request unknowingly.</p>

    <p>This problem exists because HTML forms can be submitted to other origins.</p>

    <p>Sites can prevent such attacks by populating forms with user-specific hidden tokens, or by
    checking <code title="http-origin">Origin</code> headers on all requests.</p>

   </dd>



   <dt>Clickjacking</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>A page that provides users with an interface to perform actions that the user might not wish
    to perform needs to be designed so as to avoid the possibility that users can be tricked into
    activating the interface.</p>

    <p>One way that a user could be so tricked is if a hostile site places the victim site in a
    small <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> and then convinces the user to click, for instance by having the user
    play a reaction game. Once the user is playing the game, the hostile site can quickly position
    the iframe under the mouse cursor just as the user is about to click, thus tricking the user
    into clicking the victim site's interface.</p>

    <p>To avoid this, sites that do not expect to be used in frames are encouraged to only enable
    their interface if they detect that they are not in a frame (e.g. by comparing the <code title="dom-window"><a href="#dom-window">window</a></code> object to the value of the <code title="dom-top"><a href="#dom-top">top</a></code>
    attribute).</p>

  <h4 id="common-pitfalls-to-avoid-when-using-the-scripting-apis"><span class="secno">1.9.2 </span>Common pitfalls to avoid when using the scripting APIs</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Scripts in HTML have "run-to-completion" semantics, meaning that the browser will generally run
  the script uninterrupted before doing anything else, such as firing further events or continuing
  to parse the document.</p>

  <p>On the other hand, parsing of HTML files happens asynchronously and incrementally, meaning that
  the parser can pause at any point to let scripts run. This is generally a good thing, but it does
  mean that authors need to be careful to avoid hooking event handlers after the events could have
  possibly fired.</p>

  <p>There are two techniques for doing this reliably: use <a href="#event-handler-content-attributes">event handler content
  attributes</a>, or create the element and add the event handlers in the same script. The latter
  is safe because, as mentioned earlier, scripts are run to completion before further events can
  fire.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>One way this could manifest itself is with <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> elements and the <code title="event-load">load</code> event. The event could fire as soon as the element has been
   parsed, especially if the image has already been cached (which is common).</p>

   <p>Here, the author uses the <code title="handler-onload"><a href="#handler-onload">onload</a></code> handler on an
   <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element to catch the <code title="event-load">load</code> event:</p>

   <pre>&lt;img src="games.png" alt="Games" onload="gamesLogoHasLoaded(event)"&gt;</pre>

   <p>If the element is being added by script, then so long as the event handlers are added in the
   same script, the event will still not be missed:</p>

   <pre>&lt;script&gt;
 var img = new Image();
 img.src = 'games.png';
 img.alt = 'Games';
 img.onload = gamesLogoHasLoaded;
 // img.addEventListener('load', gamesLogoHasLoaded, false); // would work also
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

   <p>However, if the author first created the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element and then in a separate
   script added the event listeners, there's a chance that the <code title="event-load">load</code>
   event would be fired in between, leading it to be missed:</p>

   <pre class="bad">&lt;!-- Do not use this style, it has a race condition! --&gt;
 &lt;img id="games" src="games.png" alt="Games"&gt;
 &lt;!-- the 'load' event might fire here while the parser is taking a
      break, in which case you will not see it! --&gt;
 &lt;script&gt;
  var img = document.getElementById('games');
  img.onload = gamesLogoHasLoaded; // might never fire!
 &lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  </div>



  <h3 id="conformance-requirements-for-authors"><span class="secno">1.10 </span>Conformance requirements for authors</h3>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Unlike previous versions of the HTML specification, this specification defines in some detail
  the required processing for invalid documents as well as valid documents.</p> <!-- This has led to
  some questioning the purpose of conformance criteria: if there is no ambiguity in how something
  will be processed, why disallow it? -->

  <p>However, even though the processing of invalid content is in most cases well-defined,
  conformance requirements for documents are still important: in practice, interoperability (the
  situation in which all implementations process particular content in a reliable and identical or
  equivalent way) is not the only goal of document conformance requirements. This section details
  some of the more common reasons for still distinguishing between a conforming document and one
  with errors.</p>


  <h4 id="presentational-markup"><span class="secno">1.10.1 </span>Presentational markup</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The majority of presentational features from previous versions of HTML are no longer allowed.
  Presentational markup in general has been found to have a number of problems:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>The use of presentational elements leads to poorer accessibility</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>While it is possible to use presentational markup in a way that provides users of assistive
    technologies (ATs) with an acceptable experience (e.g. using ARIA), doing so is significantly
    more difficult than doing so when using semantically-appropriate markup. Furthermore, even using
    such techniques doesn't help make pages accessible for non-AT non-graphical users, such as users
    of text-mode browsers.</p>

    <p>Using media-independent markup, on the other hand, provides an easy way for documents to be
    authored in such a way that they work for more users (e.g. text browsers).</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Higher cost of maintenance</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>It is significantly easier to maintain a site written in such a way that the markup is
    style-independent. For example, changing the color of a site that uses
    <code>&lt;font color=""&gt;</code> throughout requires changes across the entire site, whereas
    a similar change to a site based on CSS can be done by changing a single file.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Larger document sizes</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Presentational markup tends to be much more redundant, and thus results in larger document
    sizes.</p>

   </dd>

  </dl>

  <p>For those reasons, presentational markup has been removed from HTML in this version. This
  change should not come as a surprise; HTML4 deprecated presentational markup many years ago and
  provided a mode (HTML4 Transitional) to help authors move away from presentational markup; later,
  XHTML 1.1 went further and obsoleted those features altogether.</p>

  <p>The only remaining presentational markup features in HTML are the <code title="attr-style"><a href="#the-style-attribute">style</a></code> attribute and the <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element. Use of the <code title="attr-style"><a href="#the-style-attribute">style</a></code> attribute is somewhat discouraged in production environments, but
  it can be useful for rapid prototyping (where its rules can be directly moved into a separate
  style sheet later) and for providing specific styles in unusual cases where a separate style sheet
  would be inconvenient. Similarly, the <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element can be useful in syndication or
  for page-specific styles, but in general an external style sheet is likely to be more convenient
  when the styles apply to multiple pages.</p>

  <p>It is also worth noting that some elements that were previously presentational have been
  redefined in this specification to be media-independent: <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-hr-element">hr</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-s-element">s</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-u-element">u</a></code>.</p>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain invalid syntax constructs, when parsed, result in DOM trees that are highly
    unintuitive.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, the following markup fragment results in a DOM with an <code><a href="#the-hr-element">hr</a></code> element

   <dd>

    <p>Some error-handling behavior, such as the behavior for the <code title="">&lt;table&gt;&lt;hr&gt;...</code> example mentioned above, are incompatible with streaming
    user agents (user agents that process HTML files in one pass, without storing state). To avoid
    interoperability problems with such user agents, any syntax resulting in such behavior is
    considered invalid.</p>

   <dt>Errors that can result in infoset coercion</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>When a user agent based on XML is connected to an HTML parser, it is possible that certain
    invariants that XML enforces, such as comments never containing two consecutive hyphens, will be
    violated by an HTML file. Handling this can require that the parser coerce the HTML DOM into an
    XML-compatible infoset. Most syntax constructs that require such handling are considered
    invalid.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that result in disproportionally poor performance</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain syntax constructs can result in disproportionally poor performance. To discourage the
    use of such constructs, they are typically made non-conforming.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, the following markup results in poor performance, since all the unclosed
     <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> elements have to be reconstructed in each paragraph, resulting in progressively
     more elements in each paragraph:</p>

     <pre class="bad">&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;He dreamt.
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;He dreamt that he ate breakfast.

   <dt>Errors involving fragile syntax constructs</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>There are syntax constructs that, for historical reasons, are relatively fragile. To help
    reduce the number of users who accidentally run into such problems, they are made
    non-conforming.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, the parsing of certain named character references in attributes happens even
     with the closing semicolon being omitted. It is safe to include an ampersand followed by
     letters that do not form a named character reference, but if the letters are changed to a
     string that <em>does</em> form a named character reference, they will be interpreted as that
     character instead.</p>

     <p>In this fragment, the attribute's value is "<code title="">?bill&amp;ted</code>":</p>

     <pre class="bad">&lt;a href="?bill&amp;ted"&gt;Bill and Ted&lt;/a&gt;</pre>

     <p>In the following fragment, however, the attribute's value is actually "<code title="">?art©</code>", <em>not</em> the intended "<code title="">?art&amp;copy</code>",
     because even without the final semicolon, "<code title="">&amp;copy</code>" is handled the same
     as "<code title="">&amp;copy;</code>" and thus gets interpreted as "<code title="">©</code>":</p>

     <pre class="bad">&lt;a href="?art&amp;copy"&gt;Art and Copy&lt;/a&gt;</pre>

     <p>To avoid this problem, all named character references are required to end with a semicolon,
     and uses of named character references without a semicolon are flagged as errors.</p>

     <p>Thus, the correct way to express the above cases is as
     follows:</p>

     <pre>&lt;a href="?bill&amp;ted"&gt;Bill and Ted&lt;/a&gt; &lt;!-- &amp;ted is ok, since it's not a named character reference --&gt;</pre>
     <pre>&lt;a href="?art&amp;amp;copy"&gt;Art and Copy&lt;/a&gt; &lt;!-- the &amp; has to be escaped, since &amp;copy <em>is</em> a named character reference --&gt;</pre>

    </div>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors involving known interoperability problems in legacy user agents</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain syntax constructs are known to cause especially subtle or serious problems in legacy
    user agents, and are therefore marked as non-conforming to help authors avoid them.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, this is why the "`" (U+0060) character is not allowed in unquoted
     attributes. In certain legacy user agents, <!-- namely IE --> it is sometimes treated as a
     quote character.</p>

    </div>

    <div class="example">

     <p>Another example of this is the DOCTYPE, which is required to trigger <a href="#no-quirks-mode">no-quirks
     mode</a>, because the behavior of legacy user agents in <a href="#quirks-mode">quirks mode</a> is often
     largely undocumented.</p>

   <dt>Errors that risk exposing authors to security attacks</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain restrictions exist purely to avoid known security problems.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, the restriction on using UTF-7 exists purely to avoid authors falling prey to a
     known cross-site-scripting attack using UTF-7. <a href="#refsUTF7">[UTF7]</a></p>

   </dd>
<!--REMOVE-TOPIC:Security-->


   <dt>Cases where the author's intent is unclear</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Markup where the author's intent is very unclear is often made non-conforming. Correcting
    these errors early makes later maintenance easier.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, it is unclear whether the author intended the following to be an
     <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> heading or an <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h2</a></code> heading:</p>

     <pre class="bad">&lt;h1&gt;Contact details&lt;/h2&gt;</pre>

    </div>

   </dd>


   <dt>Cases that are likely to be typos</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>When a user makes a simple typo, it is helpful if the error can be caught early, as this can
    save the author a lot of debugging time. This specification therefore usually considers it an
    error to use element names, attribute names, and so forth, that do not match the names defined
    in this specification.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, if the author typed <code>&lt;capton&gt;</code> instead of
     <code><a href="#the-caption-element">&lt;caption&gt;</a></code>, this would be flagged as an error and the author could correct the
     typo immediately.</p>

    </div>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that could interfere with new syntax in the future</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>In order to allow the language syntax to be extended in the future, certain otherwise
    harmless features are disallowed.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, "attributes" in end tags are ignored currently, but they are invalid, in case a
     future change to the language makes use of that syntax feature without conflicting with
     already-deployed (and valid!) content.</p>

    </div>

   </dd>


  </dl>

  <p>Some authors find it helpful to be in the practice of always quoting all attributes and always
  including all optional tags, preferring the consistency derived from such custom over the minor
  benefits of terseness afforded by making use of the flexibility of the HTML syntax. To aid such
  authors, conformance checkers can provide modes of operation wherein such conventions are
  enforced.</p>



  <h4 id="restrictions-on-content-models-and-on-attribute-values"><span class="secno">1.10.3 </span>Restrictions on content models and on attribute values</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Beyond the syntax of the language, this specification also places restrictions on how elements
  and attributes can be specified. These restrictions are present for similar reasons:</p>

  <dl>


   <dt>Errors involving content with dubious semantics</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>To avoid misuse of elements with defined meanings, content models are defined that restrict
    how elements can be nested when such nestings would be of dubious value.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, this specification disallows nesting a <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code>
    element inside a <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element, since it is highly unlikely for an author to indicate
    that an entire section should be keyed in.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that involve a conflict in expressed semantics</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Similarly, to draw the author's attention to mistakes in the use of elements, clear
    contradictions in the semantics expressed are also considered conformance errors.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>In the fragments below, for example, the semantics are nonsensical: a separator cannot
     simultaneously be a cell, nor can a radio button be a progress bar.</p>

     <pre class="bad">&lt;hr role="cell"&gt;</pre>
     <pre class="bad">&lt;input type=radio role=progressbar&gt;</pre>

    </div>

    <p class="example">Another example is the restrictions on the content models of the
    <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> element, which only allows <code><a href="#the-li-element">li</a></code> element children. Lists by definition
    consist just of zero or more list items, so if a <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> element contains something
    other than an <code><a href="#the-li-element">li</a></code> element, it's not clear what was meant.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Cases where the default styles are likely to lead to confusion</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain elements have default styles or behaviors that make certain combinations likely to
    lead to confusion. Where these have equivalent alternatives without this problem, the confusing
    combinations are disallowed.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> elements are rendered as block boxes, and
    <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> elements as inline boxes. Putting a block box in an inline box is
    unnecessarily confusing; since either nesting just <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> elements, or nesting just
    <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> elements, or nesting <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> elements inside <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code>
    elements all serve the same purpose as nesting a <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element in a <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code>
    element, but only the latter involves a block box in an inline box, the latter combination is
    disallowed.</p>

    <p class="example">Another example would be the way <a href="#interactive-content-0">interactive content</a> cannot be
    nested. For example, a <code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code> element cannot contain a <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code>
    element. This is because the default behavior of such nesting interactive elements would be
    highly confusing to users. Instead of nesting these elements, they can be placed side by
    side.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that indicate a likely misunderstanding of the specification</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Sometimes, something is disallowed because allowing it would likely cause author
    confusion.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, setting the <code title="attr-fe-disabled"><a href="#attr-fe-disabled">disabled</a></code>
    attribute to the value "<code title="">false</code>" is disallowed, because despite the
    appearance of meaning that the element is enabled, it in fact means that the element is
    <em>disabled</em> (what matters for implementations is the presence of the attribute, not its
    value).</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors involving limits that have been imposed merely to simplify the language</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Some conformance errors simplify the language that authors need to learn.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element's <code title="attr-area-shape"><a href="#attr-area-shape">shape</a></code> attribute, despite accepting both <code title="attr-area-shape-keyword-circ"><a href="#attr-area-shape-keyword-circ">circ</a></code> and <code title="attr-area-shape-keyword-circle"><a href="#attr-area-shape-keyword-circle">circle</a></code> values in practice as synonyms, disallows
    the use of the <code title="attr-area-shape-keyword-circ"><a href="#attr-area-shape-keyword-circ">circ</a></code> value, so as to simplify
    tutorials and other learning aids. There would be no benefit to allowing both, but it would
    cause extra confusion when teaching the language.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that involve peculiarities of the parser</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain elements are parsed in somewhat eccentric ways (typically for historical reasons),
    and their content model restrictions are intended to avoid exposing the author to these
    issues.</p>

    <div class="example">

     <p>For example, a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element isn't allowed inside <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>,
     because when parsed as HTML, a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element's start tag will imply a
     <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element's end tag. Thus, the following markup results in two <a href="#paragraph" title="paragraph">paragraphs</a>, not one:</p>

     <pre>&lt;p&gt;Welcome. &lt;form&gt;&lt;label&gt;Name:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input&gt;&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

     <p>It is parsed exactly like the following:</p>

     <pre>&lt;p&gt;Welcome. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;form&gt;&lt;label&gt;Name:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input&gt;&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

    </div>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that would likely result in scripts failing in hard-to-debug ways</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Some errors are intended to help prevent script problems that would be hard to debug.</p>

    <p class="example">This is why, for instance, it is non-conforming to have two <code title="attr-id"><a href="#the-id-attribute">id</a></code> attributes with the same value. Duplicate IDs lead to the wrong
    element being selected, with sometimes disastrous effects whose cause is hard to determine.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that waste authoring time</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Some constructs are disallowed because historically they have been the cause of a lot of
    wasted authoring time, and by encouraging authors to avoid making them, authors can save time in
    future efforts.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element's <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute causes the element's contents to be ignored.
    However, this isn't obvious, especially if the element's contents appear to be executable script
    — which can lead to authors spending a lot of time trying to debug the inline script
    without realizing that it is not executing. To reduce this problem, this specification makes it
    non-conforming to have executable script in a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element when the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is present. This means that authors who are
    validating their documents are less likely to waste time with this kind of mistake.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that involve areas that affect authors migrating to and from XHTML</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Some authors like to write files that can be interpreted as both XML and HTML with similar
    results. Though this practice is discouraged in general due to the myriad of subtle
    complications involved (especially when involving scripting, styling, or any kind of automated
    serialization), this specification has a few restrictions intended to at least somewhat mitigate
    the difficulties. This makes it easier for authors to use this as a transitionary step when
    migrating between HTML and XHTML.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, there are somewhat complicated rules surrounding the <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> and <code title="attr-xml-lang"><a href="#attr-xml-lang">xml:lang</a></code> attributes
    intended to keep the two synchronized.</p>

    <p class="example">Another example would be the restrictions on the values of <code title="">xmlns</code> attributes in the HTML serialization, which are intended to ensure that
    elements in conforming documents end up in the same namespaces whether processed as HTML or
    XML.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that involve areas reserved for future expansion</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>As with the restrictions on the syntax intended to allow for new syntax in future revisions
    of the language, some restrictions on the content models of elements and values of attributes
    are intended to allow for future expansion of the HTML vocabulary.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, limiting the values of the <code title="attr-hyperlink-target"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-target">target</a></code> attribute that start with an "_" (U+005F) character to only specific predefined values allows new predefined values to be introduced
    at a future time without conflicting with author-defined values.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Errors that indicate a mis-use of other specifications</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Certain restrictions are intended to support the restrictions made by other
    specifications.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, requiring that attributes that take media queries use only
    <em>valid</em> media queries reinforces the importance of following the conformance rules of
    that specification.</p>

  <p>This specification refers to both HTML and XML attributes and IDL attributes, often in the same
  context. When it is not clear which is being referred to, they are referred to as <dfn title="">content attributes</dfn> for HTML and XML attributes, and <dfn title="">IDL
  attributes</dfn> for those defined on IDL interfaces. Similarly, the term "properties" is used for
  both JavaScript object properties and CSS properties. When these are ambiguous they are qualified
  as <dfn title="">object properties</dfn> and <dfn title="">CSS properties</dfn> respectively.</p>

  <p>Generally, when the specification states that a feature applies to <a href="#syntax">the HTML syntax</a>
  or <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML syntax</a>, it also includes the other. When a feature specifically only

  to the other format, as in "for HTML, ... (this does not apply to XHTML)".</p>

  <p>This specification uses the term <dfn title="">document</dfn> to refer to any use of HTML,
  ranging from short static documents to long essays or reports with rich multimedia, as well as to

  HTML syntax">HTML syntax</a> or <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax" title="the XHTML syntax">XHTML syntax</a>, depending
  on context.</p>

  <p>In the context of the DOM structures, the terms <a href="#html-documents" title="HTML documents">HTML
  document</a> and <a href="#xml-documents" title="XML documents">XML document</a> are used as defined in the DOM
  specification, and refer specifically to two different modes that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects
  can find themselves in. <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a> (Such uses are always hyperlinked to their
  definition.)</p>

  <p>In the context of byte streams, the term HTML document refers to resources labeled as
  <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code>, and the term XML document refers to resources labeled with an <a href="#xml-mime-type">XML
  MIME type</a>.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="xhtml-document">XHTML document</dfn> is used to refer to both <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s in the <a href="#xml-documents" title="XML documents">XML document</a> mode that contains element nodes in the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML
  namespace</a>, and byte streams labeled with an <a href="#xml-mime-type">XML MIME type</a> that contain

  <p>For simplicity, terms such as <dfn title="">shown</dfn>, <dfn title="">displayed</dfn>, and
  <dfn title="">visible</dfn> might sometimes be used when referring to the way a document is
  rendered to the user. These terms are not meant to imply a visual medium; they must be considered
  to apply to other media in equivalent ways.</p>

  <h4 id="resources"><span class="secno">2.1.1 </span>Resources</h4>

  <p>The specification uses the term <dfn title="">supported</dfn> when referring to whether a user
  agent has an implementation capable of decoding the semantics of an external resource. A format or
  type is said to be <i>supported</i> if the implementation can process an external resource of that
  format or type without critical aspects of the resource being ignored. Whether a specific resource
  is <i>supported</i> can depend on what features of the resource's format are in use.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, a PNG image would be considered to be in a supported format if its
  pixel data could be decoded and rendered, even if, unbeknownst to the implementation, the image
  also contained animation data.</p>

  <p class="example">An MPEG-4 video file would not be considered to be in a supported format if the
  compression format used was not supported, even if the implementation could determine the
  dimensions of the movie from the file's metadata.</p>

  <p>What some specifications, in particular the HTTP specification, refer to as a
  <i>representation</i> is referred to in this specification as a <dfn title="">resource</dfn>. <a href="#refsHTTP">[HTTP]</a></p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="mime-type">MIME type</dfn> is used to refer to what is sometimes called an <i>Internet media
  type</i> in protocol literature. The term <i>media type</i> in this specification is used to refer
  to the type of media intended for presentation, as used by the CSS specifications. <a href="#refsRFC2046">[RFC2046]</a> <a href="#refsMQ">[MQ]</a></p>

  <p>A string is a <dfn id="valid-mime-type">valid MIME type</dfn> if it matches the <code title="">media-type</code>
  rule defined in section 3.7 "Media Types" of RFC 2616. In particular, a <a href="#valid-mime-type">valid MIME
  type</a> may include MIME type parameters. <a href="#refsHTTP">[HTTP]</a></p>

  <p>A string is a <dfn id="valid-mime-type-with-no-parameters">valid MIME type with no parameters</dfn> if it matches the <code title="">media-type</code> rule defined in section 3.7 "Media Types" of RFC 2616, but does not
  contain any ";" (U+003B) characters. In other words, if it consists only of a type and
  subtype, with no MIME Type parameters. <a href="#refsHTTP">[HTTP]</a></p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="html-mime-type">HTML MIME type</dfn> is used to refer to the <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>
  <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code>.</p>

  <p>A resource's <dfn id="critical-subresources">critical subresources</dfn> are those that the resource needs to have
  available to be correctly processed. Which resources are considered critical or not is defined by
  the specification that defines the resource's format.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="data-protocol" title="data protocol"><code title="">data:</code> URL</dfn> refers to <a href="#url" title="URL">URLs</a> that use the <code title="">data:</code> scheme. <a href="#refsRFC2397">[RFC2397]</a></p>


  <h4 id="xml"><span class="secno">2.1.2 </span>XML</h4>

  <p id="html-namespace">To ease migration from HTML to XHTML, UAs conforming to this specification
  will place elements in HTML in the <code>http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml</code> namespace, at least
  for the purposes of the DOM and CSS. The term "<dfn id="html-elements">HTML elements</dfn>", when used in this
  specification, refers to any element in that namespace, and thus refers to both HTML and XHTML
  elements.</p>

  <p>Except where otherwise stated, all elements defined or mentioned in this specification are in
  the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a> ("<code>http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml</code>"), and all attributes
  defined or mentioned in this specification have no namespace.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="element-type">element type</dfn> is used to refer to the set of elements that have a given
  local name and namespace. For example, <code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code> elements are elements with the element
  type <code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code>, meaning they have the local name "<code title="">button</code>" and
  (implicitly as defined above) the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a>.</p>

  <p>Attribute names are said to be <dfn id="xml-compatible">XML-compatible</dfn> if they match the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-Name"><code title="">Name</code></a> production defined in

  <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> whose subtype ends with the four characters "<code title="">+xml</code>".
  <a href="#refsRFC3023">[RFC3023]</a></p>


  <h4 id="dom-trees"><span class="secno">2.1.3 </span>DOM trees</h4>

  <p>The <dfn id="root-element-of-a-document-object">root element of a <code>Document</code> object</dfn> is that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s
  first element child, if any. If it does not have one then the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> has no root
  element.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="root-element">root element</dfn>, when not referring to a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object's root
  element, means the furthest ancestor element node of whatever node is being discussed, or the node
  itself if it has no ancestors. When the node is a part of the document, then the node's <a href="#root-element">root
  element</a> is indeed the document's root element; however, if the node is not currently part
  of the document tree, the root element will be an orphaned node.</p>

  <p>When an element's <a href="#root-element">root element</a> is the <a href="#root-element-of-a-document-object">root element of a
  <code>Document</code> object</a>, it is said to be <dfn id="in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></dfn>. An
  element is said to have been <dfn id="insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an element into a document">inserted into a
  document</dfn> when its <a href="#root-element">root element</a> changes and is now the document's <a href="#root-element">root
  element</a>. Analogously, an element is said to have been <dfn id="remove-an-element-from-a-document" title="remove an element from a
  document">removed from a document</dfn> when its <a href="#root-element">root element</a> changes from being the
  document's <a href="#root-element">root element</a> to being another element.</p>

  <p>A node's <dfn id="home-subtree">home subtree</dfn> is the subtree rooted at that node's <a href="#root-element">root
  element</a>. When a node is <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a>, its <a href="#home-subtree">home
  subtree</a> is that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s tree.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of a <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code> (such as an element) is the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> that the <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code>'s <code title="dom-Node-ownerDocument"><a href="#dom-node-ownerdocument">ownerDocument</a></code> IDL attribute returns. When a
  <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code> is <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a> then that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is
  always the <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code>'s <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, and the <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code>'s <code title="dom-Node-ownerDocument"><a href="#dom-node-ownerdocument">ownerDocument</a></code> IDL attribute thus always returns that
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of a content attribute is the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of the
  attribute's element.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="tree-order">tree order</dfn> means a pre-order, depth-first traversal of DOM nodes involved
  (through the <code title="dom-Node-parentNode"><a href="#dom-node-parentnode">parentNode</a></code>/<code title="dom-Node-childNodes"><a href="#dom-node-childnodes">childNodes</a></code> relationship).</p>

  <p>When it is stated that some element or attribute is <dfn id="ignore" title="ignore">ignored</dfn>, or
  treated as some other value, or handled as if it was something else, this refers only to the
  processing of the node after it is in the DOM. <span class="impl">A user agent must not mutate the
  DOM in such situations.</span></p>

  <p>A content attribute is said to <dfn title="">change</dfn> value only if its new value is
  different than its previous value; setting an attribute to a value it already has does not change
  it.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn title="">empty</dfn>, when used of an attribute value, <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node, or
  string, means that the length of the text is zero (i.e. not even containing spaces or control
  characters).</p>


  <h4 id="scripting-0"><span class="secno">2.1.4 </span>Scripting</h4>

  <p>The construction "a <code>Foo</code> object", where <code>Foo</code> is actually an interface,
  is sometimes used instead of the more accurate "an object implementing the interface
  <code>Foo</code>".</p>

  <p>An IDL attribute is said to be <dfn title="">getting</dfn> when its value is being retrieved
  (e.g. by author script), and is said to be <dfn title="">setting</dfn> when a new value is
  assigned to it.</p>

  <p>If a DOM object is said to be <dfn id="live">live</dfn>, then the attributes and methods on that object
  <span class="impl">must</span> operate on the actual underlying data, not a snapshot of the
  data.</p>

  <p>In the contexts of events, the terms <i>fire</i> and <i>dispatch</i> are used as defined in the
  DOM specification: <dfn id="concept-event-fire" title="concept-event-fire">firing</dfn> an event means to create and <a href="#concept-event-dispatch" title="concept-event-dispatch">dispatch</a> it, and <dfn id="concept-event-dispatch" title="concept-event-dispatch">dispatching</dfn> an event means to follow the steps that propagate
  the event through the tree. The term <dfn id="concept-events-trusted" title="concept-events-trusted">trusted event</dfn> is
  used to refer to events whose <code title="dom-event-isTrusted"><a href="#dom-event-istrusted">isTrusted</a></code> attribute is
  initialized to true. <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a></p>


  <h4 id="plugins"><span class="secno">2.1.5 </span>Plugins</h4>

  <p>The term <dfn id="plugin">plugin</dfn> refers to a user-agent defined set of content handlers used by the
  user agent that can take part in the user agent's rendering of a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object, but
  that neither act as <a href="#child-browsing-context" title="child browsing context">child browsing contexts</a> of the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> nor introduce any <code><a href="#node">Node</a></code> objects to the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s
  DOM.</p>

  <p>Typically such content handlers are provided by third parties, though a user agent can also
  designate built-in content handlers as plugins.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>A user agent must not consider the types <code>text/plain</code> and
  <code>application/octet-stream</code> as having a registered <a href="#plugin">plugin</a>.</p> <!-- because
  of the way <object> handles those types, if nothing else (it also doesn't make any sense to have a
  plugin registered for those types, of course) -->

  </div>

  <p class="example">One example of a plugin would be a PDF viewer that is instantiated in a
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> when the user navigates to a PDF file. This would count as a plugin
  regardless of whether the party that implemented the PDF viewer component was the same as that
  which implemented the user agent itself. However, a PDF viewer application that launches separate
  from the user agent (as opposed to using the same interface) is not a plugin by this
  definition.</p>

  <p class="note">This specification does not define a mechanism for interacting with plugins, as it
  is expected to be user-agent- and platform-specific. Some UAs might opt to support a plugin
  mechanism such as the Netscape Plugin API; others might use remote content converters or have
  built-in support for certain types. Indeed, this specification doesn't require user agents to
  support plugins at all. <a href="#refsNPAPI">[NPAPI]</a></p>

  <p>A plugin can be <dfn id="concept-plugin-secure" title="concept-plugin-secure">secured</dfn> if it honors the semantics of
  the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox">sandbox</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, a secured plugin would prevent its contents from creating pop-up
  windows when the plugin is instantiated inside a sandboxed <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p class="warning">Browsers should take extreme care when interacting with external content
  intended for <a href="#plugin" title="plugin">plugins</a>. When third-party software is run with the same

  dangerous as those in the user agent.</p>

  <p>Since different users having differents sets of <a href="#plugin" title="plugin">plugins</a> provides a
  fingerprinting vector that increases the chances of users being uniquely identified, user agents
  are encouraged to support the exact same set of <a href="#plugin" title="plugin">plugins</a> for each
  user.

  <h4 id="encoding-terminology"><span class="secno">2.1.6 </span>Character encodings</h4>

  <p>A <dfn id="encoding" title="encoding">character encoding</dfn>, or just <i><a href="#encoding">encoding</a></i> where that is not
  ambiguous, is a defined way to convert between byte streams and Unicode strings, as defined in the
  WHATWG Encoding standard. An <a href="#encoding">encoding</a> has an <dfn id="encoding-name">encoding name</dfn> and one or more
  <dfn id="encoding-label" title="encoding label">encoding labels</dfn>, referred to as the encoding's <i>name</i> and
  <i>labels</i> in the Encoding specification. <a href="#refsENCODING">[ENCODING]</a></p>

  <p>An <dfn id="ascii-compatible-character-encoding">ASCII-compatible character encoding</dfn> is a single-byte or variable-length
  <a href="#encoding">encoding</a> in which the bytes 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x20 - 0x22, 0x26, 0x27, 0x2C -
  0x3F, 0x41 - 0x5A, and 0x61 - 0x7A<!-- is that list ok? do any character sets we want to support
  do things outside that range? -->, ignoring bytes that are the second and later bytes of multibyte
  sequences, all correspond to single-byte sequences that map to the same Unicode characters as
  those bytes in Windows-1252<!--ANSI_X3.4-1968 (US-ASCII)-->. <a href="#refsENCODING">[ENCODING]</a></p>

  <p class="note">This includes such encodings as Shift_JIS, HZ-GB-2312, and variants of ISO-2022,
  even though it is possible in these encodings for bytes like 0x70 to be part of longer sequences
  that are unrelated to their interpretation as ASCII. It excludes UTF-16 variants, as well as
  obsolete legacy encodings such as UTF-7, GSM03.38, and EBCDIC variants.</p>

  <!--
   We'll have to change that if anyone comes up with a way to have a document that is valid as two
   different encodings at once, with different <meta charset> elements applying in each case.
  -->

  <p>The term <dfn id="a-utf-16-encoding">a UTF-16 encoding</dfn> refers to any variant of UTF-16: UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE,
  regardless of the presence or absence of a BOM. <a href="#refsENCODING">[ENCODING]</a></p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="code-unit">code unit</dfn> is used as defined in the Web IDL specification: a 16 bit
  unsigned integer, the smallest atomic component of a <code>DOMString</code>. (This is a narrower
  definition than the one used in Unicode, and is not the same as a <i>code point</i>.) <a href="#refsWEBIDL">[WEBIDL]</a></p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="unicode-code-point">Unicode code point</dfn> means a <i title="">Unicode scalar value</i> where
  possible, and an isolated surrogate code point when not. When a conformance requirement is defined
  in terms of characters or Unicode code points, a pair of <a href="#code-unit" title="code unit">code units</a>
  consisting of a high surrogate followed by a low surrogate must be treated as the single code
  point represented by the surrogate pair, but isolated surrogates must each be treated as the
  single code point with the value of the surrogate. <a href="#refsUNICODE">[UNICODE]</a></p>

  <p>In this specification, the term <dfn id="character">character</dfn>, when not qualified as <em>Unicode</em>
  character, is synonymous with the term <a href="#unicode-code-point">Unicode code point</a>.</p>

  <p>The term <dfn id="unicode-character">Unicode character</dfn> is used to mean a <i title="">Unicode scalar value</i>
  (i.e. any Unicode code point that is not a surrogate code point). <a href="#refsUNICODE">[UNICODE]</a></p>

  <p>The <dfn id="code-unit-length">code-unit length</dfn> of a string is the number of <a href="#code-unit" title="code unit">code
  units</a> in that string.</p>

  <p class="note">This complexity results from the historical decision to define the DOM API in
  terms of 16 bit (UTF-16) <a href="#code-unit" title="code unit">code units</a>, rather than in terms of <a href="#unicode-character" title="Unicode character">Unicode characters</a>.</p>

  <p>The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", <!--"SHALL", "SHALL NOT",--> "SHOULD", "SHOULD
  NOT", <!--"RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED",--> "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in the normative parts of
  this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC2119. The key word "OPTIONALLY" in the

  <div class="impl">

  <p>Requirements phrased in the imperative as part of algorithms (such as "strip any leading space

  <div class="example">

  <h4 id="conformance-classes"><span class="secno">2.2.1 </span>Conformance classes</h4>

  <p>This specification describes the conformance criteria for <span class="impl">user agents
  (relevant to implementors) and</span> documents<span class="impl"> (relevant to authors and
  authoring tool implementors)</span>.</p>

  <p><dfn id="conforming-documents">Conforming documents</dfn> are those that comply with all the conformance criteria for
  documents. For readability, some of these conformance requirements are phrased as conformance
  requirements on authors; such requirements are implicitly requirements on documents: by
  definition, all documents are assumed to have had an author. (In some cases, that author may
  itself be a user agent — such user agents are subject to additional rules, as explained
  below.)</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if a requirement states that "authors must not use the <code title="">foobar</code> element", it would imply that documents are not allowed to contain elements
  named <code title="">foobar</code>.</p>

  <p class="note impl">There is no implied relationship between document conformance requirements
  and implementation conformance requirements. User agents are not free to handle non-conformant
  documents as they please; the processing model described in this specification applies to
  implementations regardless of the conformity of the input documents.</p>

  <p>User agents fall into several (overlapping) categories with different conformance
  requirements.</p>

  <dl>

   <dt id="interactive">Web browsers and other interactive user agents</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Web browsers that support <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML syntax</a> must process elements and attributes
    from the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a> found in XML documents as described in this specification,
    so that users can interact with them, unless the semantics of those elements have been
    overridden by other specifications.</p>

    <p class="example">A conforming XHTML processor would, upon finding an XHTML <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code>
    element in an XML document, execute the script contained in that element. However, if the
    element is found within a transformation expressed in XSLT (assuming the user agent also
    supports XSLT), then the processor would instead treat the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element as an
    opaque element that forms part of the transform.</p>

    <p>Web browsers that support <a href="#syntax">the HTML syntax</a> must process documents labeled with an
    <a href="#html-mime-type">HTML MIME type</a> as described in this specification, so that users can interact with
    them.</p>

    <p>User agents that support scripting must also be conforming implementations of the IDL
    fragments in this specification, as described in the Web IDL specification. <a href="#refsWEBIDL">[WEBIDL]</a></p>

    <p class="note">Unless explicitly stated, specifications that override the semantics of HTML
    elements do not override the requirements on DOM objects representing those elements. For
    example, the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element in the example above would still implement the
    <code><a href="#htmlscriptelement">HTMLScriptElement</a></code> interface.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt id="non-interactive">Non-interactive presentation user agents</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>User agents that process HTML and XHTML documents purely to render non-interactive versions
    of them must comply to the same conformance criteria as Web browsers, except that they are
    exempt from requirements regarding user interaction.</p>

    <p class="note">Typical examples of non-interactive presentation user agents are printers
    (static UAs) and overhead displays (dynamic UAs). It is expected that most static
    non-interactive presentation user agents will also opt to <a href="#non-scripted">lack scripting
    support</a>.</p>

    <p class="example">A non-interactive but dynamic presentation UA would still execute scripts,
    allowing forms to be dynamically submitted, and so forth. However, since the concept of "focus"
    is irrelevant when the user cannot interact with the document, the UA would not need to support
    any of the focus-related DOM APIs.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt id="renderingUA">Visual user agents that support the suggested default rendering</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>User agents, whether interactive or not, may be designated (possibly as a user option) as
    supporting the suggested default rendering defined by this specification.</p>

    <p>This is not required. In particular, even user agents that do implement the suggested default
    rendering are encouraged to offer settings that override this default to improve the experience
    for the user, e.g. changing the color contrast, using different focus styles, or otherwise
    making the experience more accessible and usable to the user.</p>

    <p>User agents that are designated as supporting the suggested default rendering must, while so
    designated, implement the rules in <a href="#rendering">the rendering section</a> that that
    section defines as the behavior that user agents are <em>expected</em> to implement.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt id="non-scripted">User agents with no scripting support</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Implementations that do not support scripting (or which have their scripting features
    disabled entirely) are exempt from supporting the events and DOM interfaces mentioned in this
    specification. For the parts of this specification that are defined in terms of an events model
    or in terms of the DOM, such user agents must still act as if events and the DOM were
    supported.</p>

    <p class="note">Scripting can form an integral part of an application. Web browsers that do not
    support scripting, or that have scripting disabled, might be unable to fully convey the author's
    intent.</p>

    <p>Conformance checkers must verify that a document conforms to the applicable conformance

    detecting errors that require interpretation of the author's intent (for example, while a
    document is non-conforming if the content of a <code><a href="#the-blockquote-element">blockquote</a></code> element is not a quote,
    conformance checkers running without the input of human judgement do not have to check that
    <code><a href="#the-blockquote-element">blockquote</a></code> elements only contain quoted material).</p>

    <p>Conformance checkers must check that the input document conforms when parsed without a
    <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> (meaning that no scripts are run, and that the parser's
    <a href="#scripting-flag">scripting flag</a> is disabled), and should also check that the input document conforms
    when parsed with a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> in which scripts execute, and that the scripts
    never cause non-conforming states to occur other than transiently during script execution
    itself. (This is only a "SHOULD" and not a "MUST" requirement because it has been proven to be
    impossible. <a href="#refsCOMPUTABLE">[COMPUTABLE]</a>)</p>

    <p>The term "HTML validator" can be used to refer to a conformance checker that itself conforms
    to the applicable requirements of this specification.</p>

    <div class="note">

     <p>XML DTDs cannot express all the conformance requirements of this specification. Therefore, a
     validating XML processor and a DTD cannot constitute a conformance checker. Also, since neither
     of the two authoring formats defined in this specification are applications of SGML, a
     validating SGML system cannot constitute a conformance checker either.</p>

     <p>To put it another way, there are three types of conformance criteria:</p>

     <ol>

      <li>Criteria that can be expressed in a DTD.</li>

      <li>Criteria that cannot be expressed by a DTD, but can still be checked by a machine.</li>

      <li>Criteria that can only be checked by a human.</li>

     </ol>

     <p>A conformance checker must check for the first two. A simple DTD-based validator only checks
     for the first class of errors and is therefore not a conforming conformance checker according
     to this specification.</p>

   <dt>Data mining tools</dt>

   <dd id="data-mining">

    <p>Applications and tools that process HTML and XHTML documents for reasons other than to either
    render the documents or check them for conformance should act in accordance with the semantics
    of the documents that they process.</p>

    <p class="example">A tool that generates <a href="#outline" title="outline">document outlines</a> but
    increases the nesting level for each paragraph and does not increase the nesting level for each
    section would not be conforming.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt id="editors">Authoring tools and markup generators</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Authoring tools and markup generators must generate <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming documents</a>.
    Conformance criteria that apply to authors also apply to authoring tools, where appropriate.</p>

    <p>Authoring tools are exempt from the strict requirements of using elements only for their
    specified purpose, but only to the extent that authoring tools are not yet able to determine
    author intent. However, authoring tools must not automatically misuse elements or encourage
    their users to do so.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, it is not conforming to use an <code><a href="#the-address-element">address</a></code> element for
    arbitrary contact information; that element can only be used for marking up contact information
    for the author of the document or section. However, since an authoring tool is likely unable to
    determine the difference, an authoring tool is exempt from that requirement. This does not mean,
    though, that authoring tools can use <code><a href="#the-address-element">address</a></code> elements for any block of italics text
    (for instance); it just means that the authoring tool doesn't have to verify that when the user
    uses a tool for inserting contact information for a section, that the user really is doing that
    and not inserting something else instead.</p>

    <p class="note">In terms of conformance checking, an editor has to output documents that conform
    to the same extent that a conformance checker will verify.</p>

    <p>When an authoring tool is used to edit a non-conforming document, it may preserve the
    conformance errors in sections of the document that were not edited during the editing session
    (i.e. an editing tool is allowed to round-trip erroneous content). However, an authoring tool
    must not claim that the output is conformant if errors have been so preserved.</p>

    <p>Authoring tools are expected to come in two broad varieties: tools that work from structure
    or semantic data, and tools that work on a What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get media-specific editing
    basis (WYSIWYG).</p>

    <p>The former is the preferred mechanism for tools that author HTML, since the structure in the
    source information can be used to make informed choices regarding which HTML elements and
    attributes are most appropriate.</p>

    <p>However, WYSIWYG tools are legitimate. WYSIWYG tools should use elements they know are
    appropriate, and should not use elements that they do not know to be appropriate. This might in
    certain extreme cases mean limiting the use of flow elements to just a few elements, like
    <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> and making liberal use
    of the <code title="attr-style"><a href="#the-style-attribute">style</a></code> attribute.</p>

    <p>All authoring tools, whether WYSIWYG or not, should make a best effort attempt at enabling
    users to create well-structured, semantically rich, media-independent content.</p>

  <p id="hardwareLimitations">User agents may impose implementation-specific limits on otherwise

  </p>

  <p>For compatibility with existing content and prior specifications, this specification describes
  two authoring formats: one based on XML (referred to as <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML syntax</a>), and one
  using a <a href="#writing">custom format</a> inspired by SGML (referred to as <a href="#syntax">the HTML
  syntax</a>). Implementations must support at least one of these two formats, although
  supporting both is encouraged.</p>

  <p>Some conformance requirements are phrased as requirements on elements, attributes, methods or
  objects. Such requirements fall into two categories: those describing content model restrictions,
  and those describing implementation behavior. Those in the former category are requirements on
  documents and authoring tools. Those in the second category are requirements on user agents.
  Similarly, some conformance requirements are phrased as requirements on authors; such requirements
  are to be interpreted as conformance requirements on the documents that authors produce. (In other
  words, this specification does not distinguish between conformance criteria on authors and
  conformance criteria on documents.)</p>

    <p>For readability, character encodings are sometimes referenced in this specification with a

    <p>The IDL fragments in this specification must be interpreted as required for conforming IDL

    created representing that time would represent the same time as that created representing the
    time 2000-01-01T00:00:00.023Z, 45 millionths earlier. If the given time is NaN, then the result

    <p>While support for CSS as a whole is not required of implementations of this specification
    (though it is encouraged, at least for Web browsers), some features are defined in terms of
    specific CSS requirements.</p>

    <p>In particular, some features require that a string be <dfn id="parsed-as-a-css-color-value">parsed as a CSS &lt;color&gt;
    value</dfn>. When parsing a CSS value, user agents are required by the CSS specifications to
    apply some error handling rules. These apply to this specification also. <a href="#refsCSSCOLOR">[CSSCOLOR]</a> <a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a></p>

    <p class="example">For example, user agents are required to close all open constructs upon
    finding the end of a style sheet unexpectedly. Thus, when parsing the string "<code title="">rgb(0,0,0</code>" (with a missing close-parenthesis) for a color value, the close
    parenthesis is implied by this error handling rule, and a value is obtained (the color 'black').
    However, the similar construct "<code title="">rgb(0,0,</code>" (with both a missing parenthesis
    and a missing "blue" value) cannot be parsed, as closing the open construct does not result in a
    viable value.</p>

    <p>The term <dfn id="css-element-reference-identifier">CSS element reference identifier</dfn> is used as defined in the <cite>CSS
    Image Values and Replaced Content</cite> specification to define the API that declares
    identifiers for use with the CSS 'element()' function. <a href="#refsCSSIMAGES">[CSSIMAGES]</a></p>

    <p>Similarly, the term <dfn id="provides-a-paint-source">provides a paint source</dfn> is used as defined in the <cite>CSS
    Image Values and Replaced Content</cite> specification to define the interaction of certain HTML

<!--FIXUP dev-html -1-->
  <h4 id="extensibility"><span class="secno">2.2.3 </span>Extensibility</h4>
<!--FIXUP dev-html +1-->

  <p>HTML has a wide number of extensibility mechanisms that can be used for adding semantics in a
  safe manner:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>Authors can use the <code title="attr-class"><a href="#classes">class</a></code> attribute to extend elements,
   effectively creating their own elements, while using the most applicable existing "real" HTML
   element, so that browsers and other tools that don't know of the extension can still support it
   somewhat well. This is the tack used by microformats, for example.</li>

   <li>Authors can include data for inline client-side scripts or server-side site-wide scripts to
   process using the <code title="attr-data-*"><a href="#attr-data-*">data-*=""</a></code> attributes. These are guaranteed to
   never be touched by browsers, and allow scripts to include data on HTML elements that scripts can
   then look for and process.</li>

   <li>Authors can use the <code title="meta"><a href="#the-meta-element">&lt;meta name="" content=""&gt;</a></code> mechanism to
   include page-wide metadata by registering <a href="#concept-meta-extensions" title="concept-meta-extensions">extensions to the
   predefined set of metadata names</a>.</li>

   <li>Authors can use the <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel=""</a></code> mechanism to annotate
   links with specific meanings by registering <a href="#concept-rel-extensions" title="concept-rel-extensions">extensions to
   the predefined set of link types</a>. This is also used by microformats. Additionally, 
   absolute URLs that do not contain any non-ASCII characters, nor 
   characters in the range U+0041 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A) through 
   U+005A (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Z) (inclusive), may be used as link 
   types.</li><!--FORK-->

   <li>Authors can embed raw data using the <code title="script"><a href="#the-script-element">&lt;script type=""&gt;</a></code>
   mechanism with a custom type, for further handling by inline or server-side scripts.</li>

   <li>Authors can create <a href="#plugin" title="plugin">plugins</a> and invoke them using the
   <code><a href="#the-embed-element">embed</a></code> element. This is how Flash works.</li>

   <li>Authors can extend APIs using the JavaScript prototyping mechanism. This is widely used by
   script libraries, for instance.</li>

  </ul>

  <hr>

  <p>Vendor-specific proprietary user agent extensions to this specification are strongly
  discouraged. Documents must not use such extensions, as doing so reduces interoperability and
  fragments the user base, allowing only users of specific user agents to access the content in
  question.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If such extensions are nonetheless needed, e.g. for experimental purposes, then vendors are
  strongly urged to use one of the following extension mechanisms:</p>

  <p>For markup-level features that can be limited to the XML serialization and need not be
  supported in the HTML serialization, vendors should use the namespace mechanism to define custom
  namespaces in which the non-standard elements and attributes are supported.</p>

  <p>For markup-level features that are intended for use with <a href="#syntax">the HTML syntax</a>,
  extensions should be limited to new attributes of the form "<code title="">x-<var title="">vendor</var>-<var title="">feature</var></code>", where <var title="">vendor</var> is a
  short string that identifies the vendor responsible for the extension, and <var title="">feature</var> is the name of the feature. New element names should not be created. Using
  attributes for such extensions exclusively allows extensions from multiple vendors to co-exist on
  the same element, which would not be possible with elements. Using the "<code title="">x-<var title="">vendor</var>-<var title="">feature</var></code>" form allows extensions to be made
  without risk of conflicting with future additions to the specification.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For instance, a browser named "FerretBrowser" could use "ferret" as a vendor prefix, while a
   browser named "Mellblom Browser" could use "mb". If both of these browsers invented extensions
   that turned elements into scratch-and-sniff areas, an author experimenting with these features
   could write:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;This smells of lemons!
&lt;span x-ferret-smellovision x-ferret-smellcode="LEM01"
      x-mb-outputsmell x-mb-smell="lemon juice"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>Attribute names beginning with the two characters "<code title="">x-</code>" are reserved for
  user agent use and are guaranteed to never be formally added to the HTML language. For
  flexibility, attributes names containing underscores (the U+005F LOW LINE character) are also
  reserved for experimental purposes and are guaranteed to never be formally added to the HTML
  language.</p>

  <p class="note">Pages that use such attributes are by definition non-conforming.</p>

  <p>For DOM extensions, e.g. new methods and IDL attributes, the new members should be prefixed by
  vendor-specific strings to prevent clashes with future versions of this specification.</p>

  <p>For events, experimental event types should be prefixed with vendor-specific strings.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, if a user agent called "Pleas<!--e h-->old" were to add an event to indicate when
   the user is going up in an elevator, it could use the prefix "<code title="">pleasold</code>" and
   thus name the event "<code title="">pleasoldgoingup</code>", possibly with an event handler
   attribute named "<code title="">onpleasoldgoingup</code>".</p>

  </div>

  <p>All extensions must be defined so that the use of extensions neither contradicts nor causes the
  non-conformance of functionality defined in the specification.</p> <!-- thanks to QA Framework -->

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, while strongly discouraged from doing so, an implementation "Foo Browser" could
   add a new IDL attribute "<code title="">fooTypeTime</code>" to a control's DOM interface that
   returned the time it took the user to select the current value of a control (say). On the other
   hand, defining a new control that appears in a form's <code title="dom-form-elements"><a href="#dom-form-elements">elements</a></code> array would be in violation of the above requirement,
   as it would violate the definition of <code title="dom-form-elements"><a href="#dom-form-elements">elements</a></code> given in
   this specification.</p>

  </div>

  <p>When adding new <a href="#reflect" title="reflect">reflecting</a> IDL attributes corresponding to content
  attributes of the form "<code title="">x-<var title="">vendor</var>-<var title="">feature</var></code>", the IDL attribute should be named "<code title=""><var title="">vendor</var><var title="">Feature</var></code>" (i.e. the "<code title="">x</code>" is
  dropped from the IDL attribute's name).</p>

  </div>

  <hr>

  <p>When vendor-neutral extensions to this specification are needed, either this specification can
  be updated accordingly, or an extension specification can be written that overrides the
  requirements in this specification. When someone applying this specification to their activities
  decides that they will recognize the requirements of such an extension specification, it becomes an
  <!--CONFORMANCE--><!--FORK-->
  <dfn id="other-applicable-specifications" title="other applicable specifications">applicable
  specification</dfn>.

  </p><p>The conformance terminology for documents depends on the nature
  of the changes introduced by such applicable specifications, and on
  the content and intended interpretation of the document. Applicable
  specifications MAY define new document content (e.g. a foobar
  element), MAY prohibit certain otherwise conforming content (e.g.
  prohibit use of &lt;table&gt;s), or MAY change the semantics, DOM
  mappings, or other processing rules for content defined in this
  specification. Whether a document is or is not a <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming HTML5 document</a> does not
  depend on the use of applicable specifications: if the syntax and
  semantics of a given <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming
  HTML5 document</a> is unchanged by the use of applicable
  specification(s), then that document remains a <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming HTML5 document</a>. If the
  semantics or processing of a given (otherwise conforming) document
  is changed by use of applicable specification(s), then it is not a
  <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming HTML5 document</a>. For
  such cases, the applicable specifications SHOULD define conformance
  terminology.</p>

  <p class="note">As a suggested but not required convention, such
  specifications might define conformance terminology such as:
  "Conforming HTML5+X<!---->XX document", where X<!---->XX is a short
  name for the applicable specification. (Example: "Conforming
  HTML5+AutomotiveExtensions document").</p>
 
  <p class="note">a consequence of the rule given above is that
  certain syntactically correct HTML5 documents may not be <a href="#conforming-documents">conforming HTML5 documents</a> in the
  presence of applicable specifications. (Example: the applicable
  specification defines &lt;table&gt; to be a piece of furniture —
  a document written to that specification and containing a &lt;table&gt;

  <p>User agents must treat elements and attributes that they do not understand as semantically
  neutral; leaving them in the DOM (for DOM processors), and styling them according to CSS (for CSS
  processors), but not inferring any meaning from them.</p>

<!--ADD-TOPIC:Security-->
  <p>When support for a feature is disabled (e.g. as an emergency measure to mitigate a security
  problem, or to aid in development, or for performance reasons), user agents must act as if they
  had no support for the feature whatsoever, and as if the feature was not mentioned in this
  specification. For example, if a particular feature is accessed via an attribute in a Web IDL
  interface, the attribute itself would be omitted from the objects that implement that interface
  — leaving the attribute on the object but making it return null or throw an exception is
  insufficient.</p>

  <p>There are various places in HTML that accept particular data types, such as dates or numbers.
  This section describes what the conformance criteria for content in those formats is, and how to
  parse them.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p class="note">Implementors are strongly urged to carefully examine any third-party libraries
  they might consider using to implement the parsing of syntaxes described below. For example, date
  libraries are likely to implement error handling behavior that differs from what is required in
  this specification, since error-handling behavior is often not defined in specifications that
  describe date syntaxes similar to those used in this specification, and thus implementations tend
  to vary greatly in how they handle errors.</p>

  <p>Some of the micro-parsers described below follow the pattern of having an <var title="">input</var> variable that holds the string being parsed, and having a <var title="">position</var> variable pointing at the next character to parse in <var title="">input</var>.</p>

  <p>For parsers based on this pattern, a step that requires the user agent to <dfn id="collect-a-sequence-of-characters">collect a

  <p>When a user agent is to <dfn id="strip-leading-and-trailing-whitespace">strip leading and trailing whitespace</dfn> from a string, the

  <h4 id="boolean-attributes"><span class="secno">2.4.2 </span>Boolean attributes</h4>

  <p>A number of attributes are <dfn id="boolean-attribute" title="boolean attribute">boolean attributes</dfn>. The
  presence of a boolean attribute on an element represents the true value, and the absence of the
  attribute represents the false value.</p>

  <p>If the attribute is present, its value must either be the empty string or a value that is an
  <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for the attribute's canonical name, with no leading or
  trailing whitespace.</p>

  <p class="note">The values "true" and "false" are not allowed on boolean attributes. To represent
  a false value, the attribute has to be omitted altogether.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here is an example of a checkbox that is checked and disabled. The <code title="attr-input-checked"><a href="#attr-input-checked">checked</a></code> and <code title="attr-fe-disabled"><a href="#attr-fe-disabled">disabled</a></code>
   attributes are the boolean attributes.</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;&lt;input type=checkbox checked name=cheese disabled&gt; Cheese&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>This could be equivalently written as this:

   </p><pre>&lt;label&gt;&lt;input type=checkbox checked=checked name=cheese disabled=disabled&gt; Cheese&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>You can also mix styles; the following is still equivalent:</p>

  </div>



  <h4 id="keywords-and-enumerated-attributes"><span class="secno">2.4.3 </span>Keywords and enumerated attributes</h4>

  <p>Some attributes are defined as taking one of a finite set of keywords. Such attributes are
  called <dfn id="enumerated-attribute" title="enumerated attribute">enumerated attributes</dfn>. The keywords are each
  defined to map to a particular <em>state</em> (several keywords might map to the same state, in
  which case some of the keywords are synonyms of each other; additionally, some of the keywords can
  be said to be non-conforming, and are only in the specification for historical reasons). In
  addition, two default states can be given. The first is the <i>invalid value default</i>, the
  second is the <i>missing value default</i>.</p>

  <p>If an enumerated attribute is specified, the attribute's value must be an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII
  case-insensitive</a> match for one of the given keywords that are not said to be
  non-conforming, with no leading or trailing whitespace.</p>

  <p>When the attribute is specified, if its value is an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match
  for one of the given keywords then that keyword's state is the state that the attribute
  represents. If the attribute value matches none of the given keywords, but the attribute has an
  <i>invalid value default</i>, then the attribute represents that state. Otherwise, if the
  attribute value matches none of the keywords but there is a <i>missing value default</i> state
  defined, then <em>that</em> is the state represented by the attribute. Otherwise, there is no
  default, and invalid values mean that there is no state represented.</p>

  <p>When the attribute is <em>not</em> specified, if there is a <i>missing value default</i> state
  defined, then that is the state represented by the (missing) attribute. Otherwise, the absence of
  the attribute means that there is no state represented.</p>

  <p class="note">The empty string can be a valid keyword.</p>

<!--(percentages are not used in valid html anymore - what would they be percentages of?)
  <p>A string is a <dfn>valid dimension value</dfn> if it consists of a character in the range
  "1" (U+0031) to "9" (U+0039), optionally followed by zero of more <span>ASCII

  <p>A <span>valid dimension value</span> represents the number that is represented in base ten by
  that string of digits, optionally with a fractional component. If the U+0025 PERCENT SIGN is

  <p>Times in dates before the formation of UTC in the mid twentieth century must be expressed and
  interpreted in terms of UT1 (contemporary Earth solar time at the 0° longitude), not UTC (the
  approximation of UT1 that ticks in SI seconds). Time before the formation of time zones must be
  expressed and interpeted as UT1 times with explicit time zones that approximate the contemporary
  difference between the appropriate local time and the time observed at the location of Greenwich,
  London.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following are some examples of dates written as <a href="#valid-global-date-and-time-string" title="valid global date and time
   string">valid global date and time strings</a>.</p>

   <dl>

    <dt>"<code>0037-12-13 00:00Z</code>"</dt>

    <dd>Midnight in areas using London time on the birthday of Nero (the Roman Emperor). See below
    for further discussion on which date this actually corresponds to.</dd>

    <dt>"<code>1979-10-14T12:00:00.001-04:00</code>"</dt>

    <dd>One millisecond after noon on October 14th 1979, in the time zone in use on the east coast
    of the USA during daylight saving time.</dd>

    <dt>"<code>8592-01-01T02:09+02:09</code>"</dt>

    <dd>Midnight UTC on the 1st of January, 8592. The time zone associated with that time is two
    hours and nine minutes ahead of UTC, which is not currently a real time zone, but is nonetheless
    allowed.</dd>

   </dl>

   <p>Several things are notable about these dates:</p>

   <ul>

    <li>Years with fewer than four digits have to be zero-padded. The date "37-12-13" would not be a
    valid date.</li>

    <li>If the "<code title="">T</code>" is replaced by a space, it must be a single space
    character. The string "<code title="">2001-12-21  12:00Z</code>" (with two spaces
    between the components) would not be parsed successfully.</li>

    <li>To unambiguously identify a moment in time prior to the introduction of the Gregorian
    calendar (insofar as moments in time before the formation of UTC can be unambiguously
    identified), the date has to be first converted to the Gregorian calendar from the calendar in
    use at the time (e.g. from the Julian calendar). The date of Nero's birth is the 15th of
    December 37, in the Julian Calendar, which is the 13th of December 37 in the <a href="#proleptic-gregorian-calendar">proleptic
    Gregorian calendar</a>.</li> <!-- This might not be true. I can't find a reference that gives
    his birthday with an explicit statement about the calendar being used. However, it seems
    unlikely that it would be given in the Gregorian calendar, so I assume sites use the Julian one.
    -->

    <li>The time and time-zone offset components are not optional.</li>

    <li>Dates before the year one can't be represented as a datetime in this version of HTML.</li>

    <li>Times of specific events in ancient times are, at best, approximations, since time was not
    well coordinated or measured until relatively recent decades.</li>

    <li>Time-zone offsets differ based on daylight savings time.</li>

  <h5 id="weeks"><span class="secno">2.4.5.8 </span>Weeks</h5>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-week" title="concept-week">week</dfn> consists of a week-year number and a week number
  representing a seven-day period starting on a Monday. Each week-year in this calendaring system
  has either 52 or 53 such seven-day periods, as defined below. The seven-day period starting on the
  Gregorian date Monday December 29th 1969 (1969-12-29) is defined as week number 1 in week-year
  1970. Consecutive weeks are numbered sequentially. The week before the number 1 week in a
  week-year is the last week in the previous week-year, and vice versa. <a href="#refsGREGORIAN">[GREGORIAN]</a></p>

  <p>A week-year with a number <var title="">year</var> has 53 weeks if it corresponds to either a
  year <var title="">year</var> in the <a href="#proleptic-gregorian-calendar">proleptic Gregorian calendar</a> that has a Thursday
  as its first day (January 1st), or a year <var title="">year</var> in the <a href="#proleptic-gregorian-calendar">proleptic
  Gregorian calendar</a> that has a Wednesday as its first day (January 1st) and where <var title="">year</var> is a number divisible by 400, or a number divisible by 4 but not by 100. All
  other week-years have 52 weeks.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="week-number-of-the-last-day">week number of the last day</dfn> of a week-year with 53 weeks is 53; the week number
  of the last day of a week-year with 52 weeks is 52.</p>

  <p class="note">The week-year number of a particular day can be different than the number of the
  year that contains that day in the <a href="#proleptic-gregorian-calendar">proleptic Gregorian calendar</a>. The first week in a
  week-year <var title="">y</var> is the week that contains the first Thursday of the Gregorian year
  <var title="">y</var>.</p>

  <p class="note">For modern purposes, a <a href="#concept-week" title="concept-week">week</a> as defined here is

  <p>Some IDL attributes are defined to <dfn id="reflect">reflect</dfn> a particular content attribute. This
  means that on getting, the IDL attribute returns the current value of the content attribute, and
  on setting, the IDL attribute changes the value of the content attribute to the given value.</p>

<!-- v2 for completeness: (also search for REFLECTIDL)
  <p class="note">A list of <span>reflecting IDL attributes</span> and
  their corresponding content attributes is given in the index.</p>
-->

  <div class="impl">

  <p>In general, on getting, if the content attribute is not present, the IDL attribute must act as
  if the content attribute's value is the empty string; and on setting, if the content attribute is
  not present, it must first be added.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute is a <code>DOMString</code> attribute whose content attribute is
  defined to contain a <a href="#url">URL</a>, then on getting, the IDL attribute must <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">resolve</a> the value of the content attribute relative to the element
  and return the resulting <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> if that was successful, or the empty string
  otherwise; and on setting, must set the content attribute to the specified literal value. If the
  content attribute is absent, the IDL attribute must return the default value, if the content
  attribute has one, or else the empty string.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute is a <code>DOMString</code> attribute whose content attribute is
  defined to contain one or more <a href="#url" title="URL">URLs</a>, then on getting, the IDL attribute
  must <a href="#split-a-string-on-spaces" title="split a string on spaces">split the content attribute on spaces</a> and
  return the concatenation of <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a URL">resolving</a> each token URL to an
  <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> relative to the element, with a single U+0020 SPACE character between
  each URL, ignoring any tokens that did not resolve successfully. If the content attribute is
  absent, the IDL attribute must return the default value, if the content attribute has one, or else
  the empty string. On setting, the IDL attribute must set the content attribute to the specified
  literal value.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute is a <code>DOMString</code> attribute whose content attribute is
  an <a href="#enumerated-attribute">enumerated attribute</a>, and the IDL attribute is <dfn id="limited-to-only-known-values">limited to only known
  values</dfn>, then, on getting, the IDL attribute must return the conforming value associated with
  the state the attribute is in (in its canonical case), if any, or the empty string if the
  attribute is in a state that has no associated keyword value or if the attribute is not in a defined state
  (e.g. the attribute is missing and there is no <i>missing value default</i>); and on setting, the
  content attribute must be set to the specified new value.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute is a <code>DOMString</code> attribute but doesn't fall into any
  of the above categories, then the getting and setting must be done in a transparent,
  case-preserving manner.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute is a <code title="">boolean</code> attribute, then on getting the
  IDL attribute must return true if the content attribute is set, and false if it is absent. On
  setting, the content attribute must be removed if the IDL attribute is set to false, and must be
  set to the empty string if the IDL attribute is set to true. (This corresponds to the rules for
  <a href="#boolean-attribute" title="boolean attribute">boolean content attributes</a>.)</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has a signed integer type (<code>long</code>) then, on getting,
  the content attribute must be parsed according to the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-integers" title="rules for parsing
  integers">rules for parsing signed integers</a>, and if that is successful, and the value is in
  the range of the IDL attribute's type, the resulting value must be returned. If, on the other
  hand, it fails or returns an out of range value, or if the attribute is absent, then the default
  value must be returned instead, or 0 if there is no default value. On setting, the given value
  must be converted to the shortest possible string representing the number as a <a href="#valid-integer">valid
  integer</a> and then that string must be used as the new content attribute value.</p>

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has a signed integer type (<code>long</code>) that is
  <dfn id="limited-to-only-non-negative-numbers">limited to only non-negative numbers</dfn> then, on getting, the content attribute must be
  parsed according to the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-non-negative-integers">rules for parsing non-negative integers</a>, and if that is
  successful, and the value is in the range of the IDL attribute's type, the resulting value must be
  returned. If, on the other hand, it fails or returns an out of range value, or if the attribute is
  absent, the default value must be returned instead, or −1 if there is no default value. On
  setting, if the value is negative, the user agent must throw an <code><a href="#indexsizeerror">IndexSizeError</a></code>
  exception. Otherwise, the given value must be converted to the shortest possible string
  representing the number as a <a href="#valid-non-negative-integer">valid non-negative integer</a> and then that string must be

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has an unsigned integer type (<code>unsigned long</code>) that is
  <dfn id="limited-to-only-non-negative-numbers-greater-than-zero">limited to only non-negative numbers greater than zero</dfn>, then the behavior is similar to

  and the value is in the range 1 to 2147483647 inclusive, the resulting value must be returned. If,
  on the other hand, it fails or returns an out of range value, or if the attribute is absent, the
  default value must be returned instead, or 1 if there is no default value. On setting, if the
  value is zero, the user agent must throw an <code><a href="#indexsizeerror">IndexSizeError</a></code> exception. Otherwise,
  first, if the new value is in the range 1 to 2147483647, then let <var title="">n</var> be the new

  content attribute value.</p>
  <!-- see previous paragraph for note about the weird range -->
 
  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has a floating-point number type (<code>double</code> or
  <code>unrestricted double</code>), then, on getting, the content attribute must be parsed
  according to the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-floating-point-number-values">rules for parsing floating-point number values</a>, and if that is

  value. On setting, the given value must be converted to the <a href="#best-representation-of-the-number-as-a-floating-point-number">best representation of the
  number as a floating-point number</a> and then that string must be used as the new content

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has a floating-point number type (<code>double</code> or
  <code>unrestricted double</code>) that is <dfn id="limited-to-numbers-greater-than-zero">limited to numbers greater than zero</dfn>, then
  the behavior is similar to the previous case, but zero and negative values are not allowed. On
  getting, the content attribute must be parsed according to the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-floating-point-number-values">rules for parsing
  floating-point number values</a>, and if that is successful and the value is greater than 0.0,
  the resulting value must be returned. If, on the other hand, it fails or returns an out of range

  is no default value. On setting, if the value is less than or equal to zero, then the value must

  <p>If a reflecting IDL attribute has the type <code><a href="#domtokenlist">DOMTokenList</a></code> or
  <code><a href="#domsettabletokenlist">DOMSettableTokenList</a></code>, then on getting it must return a <code><a href="#domtokenlist">DOMTokenList</a></code> or
  <code><a href="#domsettabletokenlist">DOMSettableTokenList</a></code> object (as appropriate) whose associated element is the element
  in question and whose associated attribute's local name is the name of the attribute in question.
  The same <code><a href="#domtokenlist">DOMTokenList</a></code> or <code><a href="#domsettabletokenlist">DOMSettableTokenList</a></code> object must be returned

   null.</li>

   the corresponding content attribute.</li>

   <li>If <var title="">candidate</var> is null, or if it is not type-compatible with the IDL
   attribute, then the IDL attribute must return null.</li>

   <li>Otherwise, it must return <var title="">candidate</var>.</li>

  </ol>

  <p>On setting, if the given element has an <code title="attr-id"><a href="#the-id-attribute">id</a></code> attribute, and has the

  the value of that <code title="attr-id"><a href="#the-id-attribute">id</a></code> attribute, then the content attribute must be

    <p>For the purposes of the algorithm above, an object is a particular type of object <var title="">class</var> if its [[Class]] internal property is equal to <var title="">class</var>.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, "<var title="">input</var> is an <code><a href="#the-object-element">Object</a></code> object" if
    <var title="">input</var>'s [[Class]] internal property is equal to the string "<code title="">Object</code>".</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>Add a mapping from <var title="">input</var> (the source object) to <var title="">output</var> (the destination object) to <var title="">memory</var>.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>If <var title="">deep clone</var> is set, then, for each enumerable own property in <var title="">input</var>, run the following steps:</p>

    <ol>

     <li><p>Let <var title="">name</var> be the name of the property.</p></li>

     <li><p>Let <var title="">source value</var> be the result of calling the [[Get]] internal
     method of <var title="">input</var> with the argument <var title="">name</var>. If the [[Get]]
     internal method of a property involved executing script, and that script threw an uncaught
     exception, then abort the overall <a href="#structured-clone">structured clone</a> algorithm, with that exception
     being passed through to the caller.</p></li>

     <li><p>Let <var title="">cloned value</var> be the result of invoking the <a href="#internal-structured-cloning-algorithm">internal
     structured cloning algorithm</a> recursively with <var title="">source value</var> as the
     "<var title="">input</var>" argument and <var title="">memory</var> as the "<var title="">memory</var>" argument. If this results in an exception, then abort the overall
     <a href="#structured-clone">structured clone</a> algorithm, with that exception being passed through to the
     caller.</p></li>

     <li><p>Add a new property to <var title="">output</var> having the name <var title="">name</var>, and having the value <var title="">cloned value</var>.</p></li>

    </ol>

    <p>The order of the properties in the <var title="">input</var> and <var title="">output</var>
    objects must be the same, and any properties whose [[Get]] internal method involves running
    script must be processed in that same order.</p>

    <p class="note">This does not walk the prototype chain.</p>

    <p class="note">Property descriptors, setters, getters, and analogous features are not copied in
    this process. For example, the property in the input could be marked as read-only, but in the
    output it would just have the default state (typically read-write, though that could depend on
    the scripting environment).</p>

    <p class="note">Properties of Array objects are not treated any differently than those of other
    Objects. In particular, this means that non-index properties of arrays are copied as well.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>Return <var title="">output</var>.</p></li>

<!--TOPIC:HTML-->
  <h3 id="elements"><span class="secno">3.2 </span>Elements</h3>

  <h4 id="semantics-0"><span class="secno">3.2.1 </span>Semantics</h4>

  <p>Elements, attributes, and attribute values in HTML are defined (by this specification) to have
  certain meanings (semantics). For example, the <code><a href="#the-ol-element">ol</a></code> element represents an ordered list,
  and the <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> attribute represents the language of the content.</p>

  <p>These definitions allow HTML processors, such as Web browsers or search engines, to present and
  use documents and applications in a wide variety of contexts that the author might not have
  considered.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>As a simple example, consider a Web page written by an author who only considered desktop
   computer Web browsers:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;My Page&lt;/title&gt;
 &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Welcome to my page&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;I like cars and lorries and have a big Jeep!&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;h2&gt;Where I live&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;I live in a small hut on a mountain!&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>

   <p>Because HTML conveys <em>meaning</em>, rather than presentation, the same
   page can also be used by a small browser on a mobile phone, without any change to the page.
   Instead of headings being in large letters as on the desktop, for example, the browser on the
   mobile phone might use the same size text for the whole the page, but with the headings in
   bold.</p>

   <p>But it goes further than just differences in screen size: the same page could equally be used
   by a blind user using a browser based around speech synthesis, which instead of displaying the
   page on a screen, reads the page to the user, e.g. using headphones. Instead of large text for
   the headings, the speech browser might use a different volume or a slower voice.</p>

   <p>That's not all, either. Since the browsers know which parts of the page are the headings, they
   can create a document outline that the user can use to quickly navigate around the document,
   using keys for "jump to next heading" or "jump to previous heading". Such features are especially
   common with speech browsers, where users would otherwise find quickly navigating a page quite
   difficult.</p>

   <p>Even beyond browsers, software can make use of this information. Search engines can use the
   headings to more effectively index a page, or to provide quick links to subsections of the page
   from their results. Tools can use the headings to create a table of contents (that is in fact how
   this very specification's table of contents is generated).</p>

   <p>This example has focused on headings, but the same principle applies to all of the semantics
   in HTML.</p>

  </div>

  <p>Authors must not use elements, attributes, or attribute values for purposes other than their
  appropriate intended semantic purpose, as doing so prevents software from correctly processing the
  page.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, the following document is non-conforming, despite being syntactically
   correct:</p>

   <pre class="bad">&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;html lang="en-GB"&gt;
 &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt; Demonstration &lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;table&gt;
   &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; My favourite animal is the cat. &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;
   &lt;tr&gt;
    &lt;td&gt;
     —&lt;a href="http://example.org/~ernest/"&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Ernest&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,
     in an essay from 1992
    &lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;/table&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>

   <p>...because the data placed in the cells is clearly not tabular data (and the <code><a href="#the-cite-element">cite</a></code>
   element mis-used). This would make software that relies on these semantics fail: for example, a
   speech browser that allowed a blind user to navigate tables in the document would report the
   quote above as a table, confusing the user; similarly, a tool that extracted titles of works from
   pages would extract "Ernest" as the title of a work, even though it's actually a person's name,
   not a title.</p>

   <p>A corrected version of this document might be:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;html lang="en-GB"&gt;
 &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt; Demonstration &lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;blockquote&gt;
   &lt;p&gt; My favourite animal is the cat. &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;
   —&lt;a href="http://example.org/~ernest/"&gt;Ernest&lt;/a&gt;,
   in an essay from 1992
  &lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>

  </div>

 <!--FORK START/END-->

  <p>Authors must not use elements, attributes, or attribute values that are not permitted by this
  specification or <a href="#other-applicable-specifications">other applicable specifications</a>, as doing so makes it significantly
  harder for the language to be extended in the future.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the next example, there is a non-conforming attribute value ("carpet") and a non-conforming
   attribute ("texture"), which is not permitted by this specification:</p>

   <pre class="bad">&lt;label&gt;Carpet: &lt;input type="carpet" name="c" texture="deep pile"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>Here would be an alternative and correct way to mark this up:</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;Carpet: &lt;input type="text" class="carpet" name="c" data-texture="deep pile"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>Through scripting and using other mechanisms, the values of attributes, text, and indeed the
  entire structure of the document may change dynamically while a user agent is processing it. The
  semantics of a document at an instant in time are those represented by the state of the document
  at that instant in time, and the semantics of a document can therefore change over time. User
  agents <span class="impl">must</span> update their presentation of the document as this
  occurs.</p>

  <p class="example">HTML has a <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> element that describes a progress bar. If its
  "value" attribute is dynamically updated by a script, the UA would update the rendering to show
  the progress changing.</p>

  <p class="note">In XML, an <code title="">xmlns</code> attribute is part of the namespace

  <!-- search for title-warning if modifying this paragraph -->
  <p class="note">Relying on the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute is currently

  that the element has no advisory information.</p>

  <p>If the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute's value contains "LF" (U+000A)

  <p>To determine the <dfn id="language">language</dfn> of a node, user agents must look at the nearest ancestor

  namespace</span></a> set or is an <a href="#html-elements" title="HTML elements">HTML element</a> and has a
  <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> in no namespace attribute set. That attribute specifies the
  language of the node (regardless of its value).</p>

  <p>If both the <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> attribute in no namespace and the <a href="#attr-xml-lang" title="attr-xml-lang"><code title="">lang</code> attribute in the <span>XML

  namespace</span></a>, and the <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> attribute in no namespace
  must be <a href="#ignore" title="ignore">ignored</a> for the purposes of determining the element's
  language.</p>

  <p>If both the <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> attribute in no
  namespace and the <a href="#attr-xml-lang" title="attr-xml-lang"><code title="">lang</code> attribute in the <span>XML

  is a <a href="#pragma-set-default-language">pragma-set default language</a> set, then that is the
  language of the node. If there is no <a href="#pragma-set-default-language">pragma-set default

  language instead. In the absence of any such language information,

  <p>If the resulting value is not a recognized language tag, then it must be treated as an unknown

  subsequent services do not interpret the data as another type of language description. <a href="#refsBCP47">[BCP47]</a></p>

  <p class="example">Thus, for instance, an element with <code title="">lang="xyzzy"</code> would be
  matched by the selector <code title="">:lang(xyzzy)</code> (e.g. in CSS), but it would not be
  matched by <code title="">:lang(abcde)</code>, even though both are equally invalid. Similarly, if
  a Web browser and screen reader working in unison communicated about the language of the element,
  the browser would tell the screen reader that the language was "xyzzy", even if it knew it was
  invalid, just in case the screen reader actually supported a language with that tag after all.
  Even if the screen reader supported both BCP 47 and another syntax for encoding language names,
  and in that other syntax the string "xyzzy" was a way to denote the Belarusian language, it would
  be <em>incorrect</em> for the screen reader to then start treating text as Belarusian, because
  "xyzzy" is not how Belarusian is described in BCP 47 codes (BCP 47 uses the code "be" for
  Belarusian).</p>

  <p>If the resulting value is the empty string, then it must be interpreted as meaning that the
  language of the node is explicitly unknown.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-translate" title="attr-translate"><code>translate</code></dfn> attribute is an <a href="#enumerated-attribute">enumerated

  leave them unchanged.</p>

  <p>The attribute's keywords are the empty string, <code title="">yes</code>, and <code title="">no</code>. The empty string and the <code title="">yes</code> keyword map to the
  <i>yes</i> state. The <code title="">no</code> keyword maps to the <i>no</i> state. In addition,

  element's <code title="attr-translate"><a href="#attr-translate">translate</a></code> attribute is in the <i>inherit</i> state,
  or the element is not an <a href="#html-elements" title="HTML elements">HTML element</a> and thus does not have a
  <code title="attr-translate"><a href="#attr-translate">translate</a></code> attribute; in either case, the element's

  <p>When an element is in the <dfn id="no-translate">no-translate</dfn> state, the element's attribute values and the

   <p>Given a suitable style sheet and the default alignment styles for the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element,
   namely to align the text to the <i>start edge</i> of the paragraph, the resulting rendering could
   be as follows:</p>

   <p><img alt="Each paragraph rendered as a separate block, with the paragraphs left-aligned except the second paragraph and the last one, which would  be right aligned, with the usernames ('Student' and 'Teacher' in this example) flush right, with a colon to their left, and the text first to the left of that." height="157" src="images/im.png" width="366"></p>

   <p>As noted earlier, the <code title="attr-dir-auto"><a href="#attr-dir-auto">auto</a></code> value is not a panacea. The
   final paragraph in this example is misinterpreted as being right-to-left text, since it begins

  <h4 id="content-models"><span class="secno">3.2.5 </span><dfn>Content models</dfn></h4>

  <p>Each element defined in this specification has a content model: a description of the element's
  expected <a href="#concept-html-contents" title="concept-html-contents">contents</a>. An <a href="#html-elements" title="HTML elements">HTML
  element</a> must have contents that match the requirements described in the element's content
  model. The <dfn id="concept-html-contents" title="concept-html-contents">contents</dfn> of an element are its children in the
  DOM, except for <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> elements, where the children are those in the <a href="#template-contents">template
  contents</a> (a separate <code><a href="#documentfragment">DocumentFragment</a></code> assigned to the element when the element
  is created).</p>

  <p>The <a href="#space-character" title="space character">space characters</a> are always allowed between elements.
  User agents represent these characters between elements in the source markup as <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code>
  nodes in the DOM.<!-- not a conf criteria since the parser now requires this --> Empty
  <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes and <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes consisting of just sequences of those
  characters are considered <dfn id="inter-element-whitespace">inter-element whitespace</dfn>.</p>

  <p><a href="#inter-element-whitespace">Inter-element whitespace</a>, comment nodes, and processing instruction nodes must be
  ignored when establishing whether an element's contents match the element's content model or not,
  and must be ignored when following algorithms that define document and element semantics.</p>

  <p class="note">Thus, an element <var title="">A</var> is said to be <i>preceded or followed</i>
  by a second element <var title="">B</var> if <var title="">A</var> and <var title="">B</var> have
  the same parent node and there are no other element nodes or <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes (other than
  <a href="#inter-element-whitespace">inter-element whitespace</a>) between them. Similarly, a node is the <i>only child</i> of
  an element if that element contains no other nodes other than <a href="#inter-element-whitespace">inter-element
  whitespace</a>, comment nodes, and processing instruction nodes.</p>

  <p>Authors must not use <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> anywhere except where they are explicitly
  allowed, as defined for each element, or as explicitly required by other specifications. For XML
  compound documents, these contexts could be inside elements from other namespaces, if those
  elements are defined as providing the relevant contexts.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>For example, the Atom specification defines a <code title="">content</code> element. When its
   <code title="">type</code> attribute has the value <code title="">xhtml</code>, the Atom
   specification requires that it contain a single HTML <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element. Thus, a
   <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element is allowed in that context, even though this is not explicitly
   normatively stated by this specification. <a href="#refsATOM">[ATOM]</a></p>
  </div>

  <p>In addition, <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> may be orphan nodes (i.e. without a parent node).</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, creating a <code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code> element and storing it in a global variable in a
   script is conforming, even though <code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code> elements are otherwise only supposed to be used
   inside <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> elements.</p>

   <pre>var data = {

  <h5 id="kinds-of-content"><span class="secno">3.2.5.1 </span>Kinds of content</h5>

  <p>Each element in HTML falls into zero or more <dfn id="content-categories" title="content categories">categories</dfn>
  that group elements with similar characteristics together. The following broad categories are used
  in this specification:</p>

  <ul class="brief">
   <li><a href="#metadata-content-0">Metadata content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#flow-content-1">Flow content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#sectioning-content-0">Sectioning content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#heading-content-0">Heading content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#phrasing-content-1">Phrasing content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#embedded-content-2">Embedded content</a></li>
   <li><a href="#interactive-content-0">Interactive content</a></li>
  </ul>

  <p class="note">Some elements also fall into other categories, which are defined in other parts of
  this specification.</p>

  <p>These categories are related as follows:</p>

  <!-- The following image is decorative; the 'as follows' bit above refers to the paragraph after it, which entirely duplicates the content of
       this image. So setting an alt="" on this would be bogus (indeed, it would be non-conforming and bad for accessibility.) -->
  <p><object data="images/content-venn.svg" height="288" width="1000"><img alt="" height="288" src="images/content-venn.png" width="512"></object></p>

  <p>Sectioning content, heading content, phrasing content, embedded content, and interactive
  content are all types of flow content. Metadata is sometimes flow content. Metadata and
  interactive content are sometimes phrasing content. Embedded content is also a type of phrasing
  content, and sometimes is interactive content.</p>

  <p>Other categories are also used for specific purposes, e.g. form controls are specified using a
  number of categories to define common requirements. Some elements have unique requirements and do
  not fit into any particular category.</p>


  <h6 id="metadata-content"><span class="secno">3.2.5.1.1 </span>Metadata content</h6>

  <p><dfn id="metadata-content-0">Metadata content</dfn> is content that sets up the presentation or behavior of the rest of
  the content, or that sets up the relationship of the document with other documents, or that
  conveys other "out of band" information.</p>

  <!-- when updating this also update the category index -->
  <ul class="brief category-list">
   <li><code><a href="#the-base-element">base</a></code></li>
   <li><code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code></li>

  <p>Elements from other namespaces whose semantics are primarily metadata-related (e.g. RDF) are
  also <a href="#metadata-content-0">metadata content</a>.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Thus, in the XML serialization, one can use RDF, like this:</p>

  <h6 id="palpable-content"><span class="secno">3.2.5.1.8 </span>Palpable content</h6>

  <p>As a general rule, elements whose content model allows any <a href="#flow-content-1">flow content</a> or
  <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a> should have at least one node in its <a href="#concept-html-contents" title="concept-html-contents">contents</a> that is <dfn id="palpable-content-0">palpable
  content</dfn> and that does not have the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute
  specified.</p>

  <p>This requirement is not a hard requirement, however, as there are many cases where an element
  can be empty legitimately, for example when it is used as a placeholder which will later be filled
  in by a script, or when the element is part of a template and would on most pages be filled in but
  on some pages is not relevant.</p>

  <p>Conformance checkers are encouraged to provide a mechanism for authors to find elements that
  fail to fulfill this requirement, as an authoring aid.</p>

  <p>The following elements are palpable content:</p>

  <h6 id="script-supporting-elements"><span class="secno">3.2.5.1.9 </span>Script-supporting elements</h6>

  <p><dfn id="script-supporting-elements-0">Script-supporting elements</dfn> are those that do not <a href="#represents" title="represents">represent</a> anything themselves (i.e. they are not rendered), but are used
  to support scripts, e.g. to provide functionality for the user.</p>

  <p>The following elements are script-supporting elements:</p>

  <!-- when updating this also update the category index -->
  <ul class="brief category-list">
   <li><code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code></li>
   <li><code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code></li>
  </ul>



  <h5 id="transparent-content-models"><span class="secno">3.2.5.2 </span>Transparent content models</h5>

  <p>Some elements are described as <dfn id="transparent">transparent</dfn>; they have "transparent" in the
  description of their content model. The content model of a <a href="#transparent">transparent</a> element is
  derived from the content model of its parent element: the elements required in the part of the
  content model that is "transparent" are the same elements as required in the part of the content
  model of the parent of the transparent element in which the transparent element finds itself.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For instance, an <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> element inside a <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element cannot contain an
   <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code> element, because the part of the <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element's content model that
   allows <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> elements is the part that allows <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>, and the
   <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code> element is not <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>.</p>

  </div>

<!--(as far as I can tell, there's no way to violate this requirement
     without first violating the earlier requirement)
  <p>Furthermore, when a content model includes a part that is "transparent", those parts must not
  contain content that would not be conformant if all transparent elements in the tree were
  replaced, in their parent element, by the <span title="concept-html-contents">contents</span> in the "transparent" part of their content
  model, retaining order.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider the following markup fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p>Hello &lt;a href="world.html">&lt;em>wonderful&lt;/em> world&lt;/a>!&lt;/p></pre>

   <p>Its DOM looks like the following:</p>

   <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code>p</code><ul><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">Hello </span></li><li class="t1"><code>a</code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">href</code>="<code class="attribute value">world.html</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code>em</code><ul><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">wonderful</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title=""> world</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">!</span></li></ul></li></ul>

   <p>The content model of the <code>a</code> element is <span>transparent</span>. To see if its
   contents are conforming, therefore, the element is replaced by its contents:</p>

   <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code>p</code><ul><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">Hello </span></li><li class="t1"><code>em</code><ul><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">wonderful</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title=""> world</span></li><li class="t3"><code>#text</code>: <span title="">!</span></li></ul></li></ul>

   <p>Since that is conforming, the contents of the <code>a</code> are conforming in the original
   fragment (there is no complication regarding the various parts of the <code>p</code> element's
   content model, since that element's content model has only one part).</p>

  </div>
-->

  <p class="note">In some cases, where transparent elements are nested in each other, the process
  has to be applied iteratively.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider the following markup fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;object&gt;&lt;param&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;map&gt;&lt;a href="/"&gt;Apples&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/map&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>To check whether "Apples" is allowed inside the <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element, the content models are
   examined. The <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element's content model is transparent, as is the <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code>
   element's, as is the <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> element's, as is the part of the <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code>
   element's in which the <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> element is found. The <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element is
   found in the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element, whose content model is <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>. Thus,
   "Apples" is allowed, as text is phrasing content.</p>

  </div>

  <p>When a transparent element has no parent, then the part of its content model that is
  "transparent" must instead be treated as accepting any <a href="#flow-content-1">flow content</a>.</p>


  <h5 id="paragraphs"><span class="secno">3.2.5.3 </span>Paragraphs</h5>

  <p class="note">The term <a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a> as defined in this section is used for more than
  just the definition of the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element. The <a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a> concept defined here
  is used to describe how to interpret documents. The <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element is merely one of
  several ways of marking up a <a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a>.</p>

  <!-- note: the actual definition is below -->
  <p>A <dfn id="paragraph">paragraph</dfn> is typically a run of <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a> that forms a block
  of text with one or more sentences that discuss a particular topic, as in typography, but can also
  be used for more general thematic grouping. For instance, an address is also a paragraph, as is a
  part of a form, a byline, or a stanza in a poem.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, there are two paragraphs in a section. There is also a heading,
   which contains phrasing content that is not a paragraph. Note how the comments and
   <a href="#inter-element-whitespace">inter-element whitespace</a> do not form paragraphs.</p>

   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Example of paragraphs&lt;/h1&gt;
  This is the &lt;em&gt;first&lt;/em&gt; paragraph in this example.
  &lt;p&gt;This is the second.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;!-- This is not a paragraph. --&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>Paragraphs in <a href="#flow-content-1">flow content</a> are defined relative to what the document looks like
  without the <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> elements
  complicating matters, since those elements, with their hybrid content models, can straddle
  paragraph boundaries, as shown in the first two examples below.</p>

  <p class="note">Generally, having elements straddle paragraph boundaries is best avoided.
  Maintaining such markup can be difficult.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following example takes the markup from the earlier example and puts <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> and
   <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements around some of the markup to show that the text was changed (though in
   this case, the changes admittedly don't make much sense). Notice how this example has exactly the
   same paragraphs as the previous one, despite the <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements
   — the <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> element straddles the heading and the first paragraph, and the
   <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> element straddles the boundary between the two paragraphs.</p>

   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
  &lt;ins&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Example of paragraphs&lt;/h1&gt;
  This is the &lt;em&gt;first&lt;/em&gt; paragraph in&lt;/ins&gt; this example&lt;del&gt;.
  &lt;p&gt;This is the second.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/del&gt;
  &lt;!-- This is not a paragraph. --&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>Let <var title="">view</var> be a view of the DOM that replaces all <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> elements in the document with their
  <a href="#concept-html-contents" title="concept-html-contents">contents</a>. Then, in <var title="">view</var>, for each run of sibling <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>
  nodes uninterrupted by other types of content, in an element that accepts content other than
  <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a> as well as <a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing content</a>, let <var title="">first</var> be the first node of the run, and let <var title="">last</var> be the last
  node of the run. For each such run that consists of at least one node that is neither
  <a href="#embedded-content-2">embedded content</a> nor <a href="#inter-element-whitespace">inter-element whitespace</a>, a paragraph exists in the
  original DOM from immediately before <var title="">first</var> to immediately after <var title="">last</var>. (Paragraphs can thus span across <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> elements.)</p>

  <p>Conformance checkers may warn authors of cases where they have paragraphs that overlap each
  other (this can happen with <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-video-element">video</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-audio-element">audio</a></code>, and
  <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> elements, and indirectly through elements in other namespaces that allow HTML
  to be further embedded therein, like <code><a href="#svg-0">svg</a></code> or <code><a href="#math">math</a></code>).</p>
  <!-- example below -->

  </div>

  <p>A <a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a> is also formed explicitly by <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element can be used to wrap individual paragraphs when there
  would otherwise not be any content other than phrasing content to separate the paragraphs from
  each other.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, the link spans half of the first paragraph, all of the heading
   separating the two paragraphs, and half of the second paragraph. It straddles the paragraphs and
   the heading.</p>

   <pre>&lt;header&gt;
 Welcome!
 &lt;a href="about.html"&gt;
  This is home of...
  &lt;h1&gt;The Falcons!&lt;/h1&gt;
  The Lockheed Martin multirole jet fighter aircraft!
 &lt;/a&gt;
 This page discusses the F-16 Fighting Falcon's innermost secrets.
&lt;/header&gt;</pre>

   <p>Here is another way of marking this up, this time showing the paragraphs explicitly, and
   splitting the one link element into three:</p>

   <pre>&lt;header&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Welcome! &lt;a href="about.html"&gt;This is home of...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="about.html"&gt;The Falcons!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="about.html"&gt;The Lockheed Martin multirole jet

&lt;/header&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <!-- I don't know if there's a better way to deal with this, but if there is, let me know... -->

   <p>It is possible for paragraphs to overlap when using certain elements that define fallback
   content. For example, in the following section:</p>

   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;My Cats&lt;/h1&gt;
 You can play with my cat simulator.
 &lt;object data="cats.sim"&gt;
  To see the cat simulator, use one of the following links:
  &lt;ul&gt;
   &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="cats.sim"&gt;Download simulator file&lt;/a&gt;
   &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://sims.example.com/watch?v=LYds5xY4INU"&gt;Use online simulator&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
  Alternatively, upgrade to the Mellblom Browser.
 &lt;/object&gt;
 I'm quite proud of it.
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

   <p>There are five paragraphs:</p>

    <li>The paragraph that says "You can play with my cat simulator. <i title="">object</i> I'm
    quite proud of it.", where <i title="">object</i> is the <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element.</li>

    <li>The paragraph that says "To see the cat simulator, use one of the following links:".</li>

    <li>The paragraph that says "Download simulator file".</li>

    <li>The paragraph that says "Use online simulator".</li>

    <li>The paragraph that says "Alternatively, upgrade to the Mellblom Browser.".</li>

   </ol>

   <p>The first paragraph is overlapped by the other four. A user agent that supports the "cats.sim"
   resource will only show the first one, but a user agent that shows the fallback will confusingly
   show the first sentence of the first paragraph as if it was in the same paragraph as the second
   one, and will show the last paragraph as if it was at the start of the second sentence of the
   first paragraph.</p>

   <p>To avoid this confusion, explicit <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements can be used. For example:</p>

   <!-- My Fish -->
   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;My Cats&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;You can play with my cat simulator.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;object data="cats.sim"&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;To see the cat simulator, use one of the following links:&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
   &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="cats.sim"&gt;Download simulator file&lt;/a&gt;
   &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://sims.example.com/watch?v=LYds5xY4INU"&gt;Use online simulator&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Alternatively, upgrade to the Mellblom Browser.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/object&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;I'm quite proud of it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  <h4 id="requirements-relating-to-bidirectional-algorithm-formatting-characters"><span class="secno">3.2.6 </span>Requirements relating to bidirectional-algorithm formatting characters</h4>

  <p><a href="#text-content">Text content</a> in <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> with <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes in their <a href="#concept-html-contents" title="concept-html-contents">contents</a>, and
  text in attributes of <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> that allow free-form text, may contain characters
  in the ranges U+202A to U+202E and U+2066 to U+2069 (the bidirectional-algorithm formatting
  characters). However, the use of these characters is restricted so that any embedding or overrides
  generated by these characters do not start and end with different parent elements, and so that all
  such embeddings and overrides are explicitly terminated by a U+202C POP DIRECTIONAL FORMATTING
  character. This helps reduce incidences of text being reused in a manner that has unforeseen
  effects on the bidirectional algorithm. <a href="#refsBIDI">[BIDI]</a></p>

  <p>The aforementioned restrictions are defined by specifying that certain parts of documents form
  <a href="#bidirectional-algorithm-formatting-character-ranges">bidirectional-algorithm formatting character ranges</a>, and then imposing a requirement
  on such ranges.</p>

  <p>The strings resulting from applying the following algorithm to an <a href="#html-elements" title="HTML

   any, or null otherwise.</p></li>

  <p class="note">While the U+2069 POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE character implicitly also ends open
  embeddings and overrides, text that relies on this implicit scope closure is not conforming to
  this specification. All strings of embeddings, overrides, and isolations need to be explicitly

  <p class="note">Authors are encouraged to use the <code title="attr-dir"><a href="#the-dir-attribute">dir</a></code> attribute, the
  <code><a href="#the-bdo-element">bdo</a></code> element, and the <code><a href="#the-bdi-element">bdi</a></code> element, rather than maintaining the
  bidirectional-algorithm formatting characters manually. The bidirectional-algorithm formatting
  characters interact poorly with CSS.</p>

  <p>ARIA State and Property attributes can be used on any element. They

<!--FORK-->
  <p>The WAI-ARIA specification neither requires or forbids user
  agents from enhancing native presentation and interaction behaviors
  on the basis of WAI- ARIA markup. Even mainstream user agents might
  choose to expose metadata or navigational features directly or via
  user-installed extensions; for example, exposing required form
  fields or landmark navigation. User agents are encouraged to
  maximize their usefulness to users, including users without
  disabilities.</p>
<!-- EDITORIAL --><!--FORK-->

  <p>Conformance checkers are encouraged to phrase errors such that authors are encouraged to use
  more appropriate elements rather than remove accessibility annotations. For example, if an
  <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element is marked as having the <code title="attr-aria-role-button">button</code>
  role, a conformance checker could say "Use a more appropriate element to represent a button, for
  example a <code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code> element or an <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element" rather than "The <code title="attr-aria-role-button">button</code> role cannot be used with <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> elements".</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>These features can be used to make accessibility tools render content to their users in more
   useful ways. For example, ASCII art, which is really an image, appears to be text, and in the
   absence of appropriate annotations would end up being rendered by screen readers as a very
   painful reading of lots of punctuation. Using the features described in this section, one can
   instead make the ATs skip the ASCII art and just read the caption:</p>

  <h3 id="interactions-with-xpath-and-xslt"><span class="secno">3.3 </span>Interactions with XPath and XSLT</h3>

  <p id="xpath-1.0-processors">Implementations of XPath 1.0 that operate on <a href="#html-documents">HTML
  documents</a> parsed or created in the manners described in this specification (e.g. as part of
  the <code title="">document.evaluate()</code> API) must act as if the following edit was applied
  to the XPath 1.0 specification.</p>

  <p>First, remove this paragraph:</p>

  <blockquote cite="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xpath-19991116#node-tests">

   <p>A <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names#NT-QName">QName</a> in the node test is expanded
   into an <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xpath-19991116#dt-expanded-name">expanded-name</a>
   using the namespace declarations from the expression context. This is the same way expansion is
   done for element type names in start and end-tags except that the default namespace declared with
   <code title="">xmlns</code> is not used: if the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names#NT-QName">QName</a> does not have a prefix, then the
   namespace URI is null (this is the same way attribute names are expanded). It is an error if the
   <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names#NT-QName">QName</a> has a prefix for which there is
   no namespace declaration in the expression context.</p>

  </blockquote>

  <p>Then, insert in its place the following:</p>

  <blockquote cite="http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7059#c37">

   <p>A QName in the node test is expanded into an expanded-name using the namespace declarations
   from the expression context. If the QName has a prefix, then there must be a<!-- added 2009-10-27
   - http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8062 --> namespace declaration for this prefix in
   the expression context, and the corresponding<!-- typo fixed 2009-10-27 -
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8063 --> namespace URI is the one that is
   associated with this prefix. It is an error if the QName has a prefix for which there is no
   namespace declaration in the expression context. </p>

   <p>If the QName has no prefix and the principal node type of the axis is element, then the
   default element namespace is used. Otherwise if the QName has no prefix, the namespace URI is
   null. The default element namespace is a member of the context for the XPath expression. The
   value of the default element namespace when executing an XPath expression through the DOM3 XPath
   API is determined in the following way:</p>

   <ol>

    <li>If the context node is from an HTML DOM, the default element namespace is
    "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml".</li>

    <li>Otherwise, the default element namespace URI is null.</li>

   </ol>

   <p class="note">This is equivalent to adding the default element namespace feature of XPath 2.0
   to XPath 1.0, and using the HTML namespace as the default element namespace for HTML documents.
   It is motivated by the desire to have implementations be compatible with legacy HTML content
   while still supporting the changes that this specification introduces to HTML regarding the
   namespace used for HTML elements, and by the desire to use XPath 1.0 rather than XPath 2.0.</p>

  </blockquote>

  <p class="note">This change is a <a href="#willful-violation">willful violation</a> of the XPath 1.0 specification,
  motivated by desire to have implementations be compatible with legacy content while still

  <p id="dom-based-xslt-1.0-processors">XSLT 1.0 processors outputting to a DOM when the output
  method is "html" (either explicitly or via the defaulting rule in XSLT 1.0) are affected as

  <p>If the transformation program outputs an element in no namespace, the processor must, prior to
  constructing the corresponding DOM element node, change the namespace of the element to the
  <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a>, <a href="#converted-to-ascii-lowercase" title="converted to ASCII lowercase">ASCII-lowercase</a> the
  element's local name, and <a href="#converted-to-ascii-lowercase" title="converted to ASCII lowercase">ASCII-lowercase</a> the

  <p class="note">This requirement is a <a href="#willful-violation">willful violation</a> of the XSLT 1.0

  <p>This specification does not specify precisely how XSLT processing interacts with the <a href="#html-parser">HTML

  elements into a <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a>). However, XSLT processors must <a href="#stop-parsing">stop

  <hr>

  <p>This specification does not specify how XSLT interacts with the <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a> algorithm, how it fits in with the <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a>, nor
  how error pages are to be handled (e.g. whether XSLT errors are to replace an incremental XSLT

    is simply ignored, or throws an exception. To make matters worse, the exact behavior of this
    method can in some cases be dependent on network latency<!--

     Namely, in the following case:

        <script>
         document.write('<link rel=stylesheet href=foo.css><script></script>x');
         // at this point, whether the DOM contains an "x" or not depends on how quickly the foo.css file could be processed

  </dl><!--TOPIC:HTML-->

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element allows authors to link their document to other resources.</p>

  <p>The destination of the link(s) is given by the <dfn id="attr-link-href" title="attr-link-href"><code>href</code></dfn> attribute, which must be present and must contain a
  <a href="#valid-non-empty-url-potentially-surrounded-by-spaces">valid non-empty URL potentially surrounded by spaces</a>. <span class="impl">If the <code title="attr-link-href"><a href="#attr-link-href">href</a></code> attribute is absent, then the element does not define a
  link.</span></p>

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element must have either a <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute
  or an <code title="attr-itemprop">itemprop</code> attribute, but not both.</p>

  <p class="note">If the <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute is used, the element is
  restricted to the <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element. When used with the <code title="attr-itemprop">itemprop</code> attribute, the element can be used both in the
  <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element and in the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> of the page, subject to the constraints of
  the microdata model.</p>

  <p>The types of link indicated (the relationships) are given by the value of the <dfn id="attr-link-rel" title="attr-link-rel"><code>rel</code></dfn> attribute, which, if present, must have a value that
  is a <a href="#set-of-space-separated-tokens">set of space-separated tokens</a>. The <a href="#linkTypes">allowed keywords and
  their meanings</a> are defined in a later section. <span class="impl">If the <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute is absent, has no keywords, or if none of the keywords
  used are allowed according to the definitions in this specification, then the element does not
  create any links.</span></p>

  <p>Two categories of links can be created using the <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element: <a href="#external-resource-link" title="external resource link">Links to external resources</a> and <a href="#hyperlink" title="hyperlink">hyperlinks</a>. The <a href="#linkTypes">link types section</a> defines
  whether a particular link type is an external resource or a hyperlink. One <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>
  element can create multiple links (of which some might be external resource links and some might
  be hyperlinks); exactly which and how many links are created depends on the keywords given in the
  <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute. User agents must process the links on a per-link
  basis, not a per-element basis.</p>

  <p class="note">Each link created for a <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element is handled separately. For
  instance, if there are two <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> elements with <code title="">rel="stylesheet"</code>,
  they each count as a separate external resource, and each is affected by its own attributes
  independently. Similarly, if a single <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element has a <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute with the value <code title="">next stylesheet</code>,
  it creates both a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a> (for the <code title="rel-next"><a href="#link-type-next">next</a></code> keyword) and
  an <a href="#external-resource-link">external resource link</a> (for the <code title="rel-stylesheet"><a href="#link-type-stylesheet">stylesheet</a></code>
  keyword), and they are affected by other attributes (such as <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code> or <code title="attr-link-title"><a href="#attr-link-title">title</a></code>)
  differently.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, the following <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element creates two hyperlinks (to the same
   page):</p>

   <pre>&lt;link rel="author license" href="/about"&gt;</pre>

   <p>The two links created by this element are one whose semantic is that the target page has
   information about the current page's author, and one whose semantic is that the target page has
   information regarding the license under which the current page is provided.</p>

  </div>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-link-crossorigin" title="attr-link-crossorigin"><code>crossorigin</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#cors-settings-attribute">CORS
  settings attribute</a>. It is intended for use with external resource links.</p>

  <p>The exact behavior for links to external resources depends on the exact relationship, as
  defined for the relevant link type. Some of the attributes control whether or not the external
  resource is to be applied (as defined below).</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>For external resources that are represented in the DOM (for example, style sheets), the DOM
  representation must be made available (modulo cross-origin restrictions) even if the resource is
  not applied. To <dfn id="concept-link-obtain" title="concept-link-obtain">obtain the resource</dfn>, the user agent must
  run the following steps:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>If the <code title="attr-link-href"><a href="#attr-link-href">href</a></code> attribute's value is the empty string,
   then abort these steps.</p></li>

   <li><p><a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">Resolve</a> the <a href="#url">URL</a> given by the <code title="attr-link-href"><a href="#attr-link-href">href</a></code> attribute, relative to the element.</p></li>

   <li><p>If the previous step fails, then abort these steps.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>Do a <a href="#potentially-cors-enabled-fetch">potentially CORS-enabled fetch</a><!--FETCH--> of the resulting <a href="#absolute-url">absolute
    URL</a>, with the <i>mode</i> being the state of the element's <code title="attr-link-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-link-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> content attribute, the <i title="">origin</i>
    being the <a href="#origin-0">origin</a> of the <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element's <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, and the
    <i>default origin behaviour</i> set to <i>taint</i>.</p>

    <p>The resource obtained in this fashion can be either <a href="#cors-same-origin">CORS-same-origin</a> or
    <a href="#cors-cross-origin">CORS-cross-origin</a>.</p>

   </li>

  </ol>

  <p>User agents may opt to only try to obtain such resources when they are needed, instead of
  pro-actively <a href="#fetch" title="fetch">fetching</a> all the external resources that are not
  applied.</p>

  <p>The semantics of the protocol used (e.g. HTTP) must be followed when fetching external
  resources. (For example, redirects will be followed and 404 responses will cause the external
  resource to not be applied.)</p>

  <!-- the next few paragraph are similar to text in the <style> section -->
  <p>Once the attempts to obtain the resource and its <a href="#critical-subresources">critical subresources</a> are
  complete, the user agent must, if the loads were successful, <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to
  <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-load">load</code> at the
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element, or, if the resource or one of its <a href="#critical-subresources">critical subresources</a>
  failed to completely load for any reason (e.g. DNS error, HTTP 404 response, a connection being
  prematurely closed, unsupported Content-Type), <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple
  event</a> named <code title="event-error">error</code> at the <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element.
  Non-network errors in processing the resource or its subresources (e.g. CSS parse errors, PNG
  decoding errors) are not failures for the purposes of this paragraph.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#task-source">task source</a> for these <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a> is the <a href="#dom-manipulation-task-source">DOM
  manipulation task source</a>.</p>

  <p>The element must <a href="#delay-the-load-event">delay the load event</a> of the element's document until all the
  attempts to obtain the resource and its <a href="#critical-subresources">critical subresources</a> are complete.
  (Resources that the user agent has not yet attempted to obtain, e.g. because it is waiting for the
  resource to be needed, do not <a href="#delay-the-load-event">delay the load event</a>.)</p>

  <p id="linkui">Interactive user agents may provide users with a means to <a href="#following-hyperlinks-0" title="following
  hyperlinks">follow the hyperlinks</a> created using the <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element, somewhere
  within their user interface. The exact interface is not defined by this specification, but it
  could include the following information (obtained from the element's attributes, again as defined
  below), in some form or another (possibly simplified), for each hyperlink created with each
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element in the document:</p>

  <ul> <!-- the order here is the order that makes most sense for a UI -->

   <li>The relationship between this document and the resource (given by the <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute)</li>

   <li>The title of the resource (given by the <code title="attr-link-title"><a href="#attr-link-title">title</a></code>
   attribute).</li>

   <li>The address of the resource (given by the <code title="attr-link-href"><a href="#attr-link-href">href</a></code>
   attribute).</li>

   <li>The language of the resource (given by the <code title="attr-link-hreflang"><a href="#attr-link-hreflang">hreflang</a></code>
   attribute).</li>

   <li>The optimum media for the resource (given by the <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code>
   attribute).</li>

  </ul>

  <p>User agents could also include other information, such as the type of the resource (as given by
  the <code title="attr-link-type"><a href="#attr-link-type">type</a></code> attribute).</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">Hyperlinks created with the <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element and its <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute apply to the whole page. This contrasts with the <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code> attribute of <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements,
  which indicates the type of a link whose context is given by the link's location within the
  document.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-link-media" title="attr-link-media"><code>media</code></dfn> attribute says which media the
  resource applies to. The value must be a <a href="#valid-media-query">valid media query</a>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If the link is a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a> then the <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code>
  attribute is purely advisory, and describes for which media the document in question was
  designed.</p>

  <p>However, if the link is an <a href="#external-resource-link">external resource link</a>, then the <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code> attribute is prescriptive. The user agent must apply the
  external resource when the <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code> attribute's value
  <a href="#matches-the-environment">matches the environment</a> and the other relevant conditions apply, and must not apply
  it otherwise.</p><!-- note similar text in <style> section -->

  <p class="note">The external resource might have further restrictions defined within that limit
  its applicability. For example, a CSS style sheet might have some <code title="">@media</code>
  blocks. This specification does not override such further restrictions or requirements.</p><!--
  note similar text in <style> section -->

  </div>

  <p id="default-media">The default, if the <code title="attr-link-media"><a href="#attr-link-media">media</a></code> attribute is
  omitted, is "<code title="">all</code>", meaning that by default links apply to all media.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-link-hreflang" title="attr-link-hreflang"><code>hreflang</code></dfn> attribute on the
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> element has the same semantics as the <a href="#attr-hyperlink-hreflang" title="attr-hyperlink-hreflang"><code>hreflang</code> attribute on <code>a</code> and
  <code>area</code> elements</a>.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-link-type" title="attr-link-type"><code>type</code></dfn> attribute gives the <a href="#mime-type">MIME
  type</a> of the linked resource. It is purely advisory. The value must be a <a href="#valid-mime-type">valid MIME
  type</a>.</p>

  <p>For <a href="#external-resource-link" title="external resource link">external resource links</a>, the <code title="attr-link-type"><a href="#attr-link-type">type</a></code> attribute is used as a hint to user agents so that they can
  avoid fetching resources they do not support. <span class="impl">If the attribute is present, then
  the user agent must assume that the resource is of the given type (even if that is not a
  <a href="#valid-mime-type">valid MIME type</a>, e.g. the empty string). If the attribute is omitted, but the
  external resource link type has a default type defined, then the user agent must assume that the
  resource is of that type. If the UA does not support the given <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> for the
  given link relationship, then the UA should not <a href="#concept-link-obtain" title="concept-link-obtain">obtain</a>
  the resource; if the UA does support the given <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> for the given link
  relationship, then the UA should <a href="#concept-link-obtain" title="concept-link-obtain">obtain</a> the resource at
  the appropriate time as specified for the <a href="#external-resource-link">external resource link</a>'s particular type.
  If the attribute is omitted, and the external resource link type does not have a default type
  defined, but the user agent would <a href="#concept-link-obtain" title="concept-link-obtain">obtain</a> the resource if
  the type was known and supported, then the user agent should <a href="#concept-link-obtain" title="concept-link-obtain">obtain</a> the resource under the assumption that it will be
  supported.</span></p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents must not consider the <code title="attr-link-type"><a href="#attr-link-type">type</a></code> attribute
  authoritative — upon fetching the resource, user agents must not use the <code title="attr-link-type"><a href="#attr-link-type">type</a></code> attribute to determine its actual type. Only the actual type
  (as defined in the next paragraph) is used to determine whether to <em>apply</em> the resource,
  not the aforementioned assumed type.</p>

  <p id="concept-link-type-sniffing">If the external resource link type defines rules for processing
  the resource's <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a>, then those rules apply.
  Otherwise, if the resource is expected to be an image, user agents may apply the <a href="#content-type-sniffing:-image" title="Content-Type sniffing: image">image sniffing rules</a>, with the <var title="">official
  type</var> being the type determined from the resource's <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type
  metadata</a>, and use the resulting sniffed type of the resource as if it was the actual type.
  Otherwise, if neither of these conditions apply or if the user agent opts not to apply the image
  sniffing rules, then the user agent must use the resource's <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a> to determine the type of the resource. If there
  is no type metadata, but the external resource link type has a default type defined, then the user
  agent must assume that the resource is of that type.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code title="rel-stylesheet"><a href="#link-type-stylesheet">stylesheet</a></code> link type defines rules for
  processing the resource's <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a>.</p>

  <p>Once the user agent has established the type of the resource, the user agent must apply the
  resource if it is of a supported type and the other relevant conditions apply, and must ignore the
  resource otherwise.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>If a document contains style sheet links labeled as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="A" type="text/plain"&gt;
&lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="B" type="text/css"&gt;
&lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="C"&gt;</pre>

   <p>...then a compliant UA that supported only CSS style sheets would fetch the B and C files, and
   skip the A file (since <code>text/plain</code> is not the <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> for CSS style
   sheets).</p>

   <p>For files B and C, it would then check the actual types returned by the server. For those that
   are sent as <code>text/css</code>, it would apply the styles, but for those labeled as
   <code>text/plain</code>, or any other type, it would not.</p>

   <p>If one of the two files was returned without a <a href="#content-type">Content-Type</a> metadata, or with a
   syntactically incorrect type like <code title="">Content-Type: "null"</code>, then the
   default type for <code title="rel-stylesheet"><a href="#link-type-stylesheet">stylesheet</a></code> links would kick in. Since that
   default type is <code title="">text/css</code>, the style sheet <em>would</em> nonetheless be
   applied.</p>

  </div>

  </div>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-link-title" title="attr-link-title"><code>title</code></dfn> attribute gives the title of the
  link. With one exception, it is purely advisory. The value is text. The exception is for style
  sheet links, where the <code title="attr-link-title"><a href="#attr-link-title">title</a></code> attribute defines
  <a href="#alternative-style-sheet-sets">alternative style sheet sets</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code title="attr-link-title"><a href="#attr-link-title">title</a></code> attribute on <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>
  elements differs from the global <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute of most other
  elements in that a link without a title does not inherit the title of the parent element: it
  merely has no title.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-link-sizes"><a href="#attr-link-sizes">sizes</a></code> attribute is used with the <code title="rel-icon"><a href="#rel-icon">icon</a></code> link type. The attribute must not be specified on <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>
  elements that do not have a <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute that specifies the
  <code title="rel-icon"><a href="#rel-icon">icon</a></code> keyword.</p>

  <p class="rep">The <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> various kinds of metadata that cannot be

  <p class="auth">The <dfn id="attr-meta-charset" title="attr-meta-charset"><code>charset</code></dfn> attribute specifies the character

  <p class="note">The <code title="attr-meta-charset"><a href="#attr-meta-charset">charset</a></code> attribute on the
  <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element has no effect in XML documents, and is only allowed in order to

  <p>If a <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element has a <dfn id="attr-meta-name" title="attr-meta-name"><code>name</code></dfn>

  the <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute on the <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element giving the
  name, and the <code title="attr-meta-content"><a href="#attr-meta-content">content</a></code> attribute on the same element giving
  the value. The name specifies what aspect of metadata is being set; valid names and the meaning of
  their values are described in the following sections. If a <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element has no <code title="attr-meta-content"><a href="#attr-meta-content">content</a></code> attribute, then the value part of the metadata name-value

     <p>Here is what a tool called "Frontweaver" could include in its

 &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
  ...</pre>

    </div>

    <p class="note">Many search engines do not consider such keywords,
    because this feature has historically been used unreliably and
    even misleadingly as a way to spam search engine results in a way
    that is not helpful for users.</p>

    <div class="impl">

    <p>To obtain the list of keywords that the author has specified as
    applicable to the page, the user agent must run the following
    steps:</p>

    <ol>

     <li><p>Let <var title="">keywords</var> be an empty
     list.</p></li>

     <li>

      <p>For each <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute and a <code title="attr-meta-content"><a href="#attr-meta-content">content</a></code> attribute and whose
      <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute's value is
      <code title="meta-keywords"><a href="#meta-keywords">keywords</a></code>, run the following
      substeps:</p>

      <ol>

       <li><p><a href="#split-a-string-on-commas" title="split a string on commas">Split the value
       of the element's <code title="attr-meta-content">content</code>
       attribute on commas</a>.</p></li>

       <li><p>Add the resulting tokens, if any, to <var title="">keywords</var>.</p></li>

      </ol>

     </li>

     <li><p>Remove any duplicates from <var title="">keywords</var>.</p></li>

     <li><p>Return <var title="">keywords</var>. This is the list of
     keywords that the author has specified as applicable to the
     page.</p></li>

    </ol>

    <p>User agents should not use this information when there is
    insufficient confidence in the reliability of the value.</p>

    <p class="example">For instance, it would be reasonable for a
    content management system to use the keyword information of pages
    within the system to populate the index of a site-specific search
    engine, but a large-scale content aggregator that used this
    information would likely find that certain users would try to game
    its ranking mechanism through the use of inappropriate
    keywords.</p>

  <ul>

   <li>The character encoding name given must be an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for

  <p class="auth">Encodings in which a series of bytes in the range 0x20 to 0x7E can encode characters other than
  the corresponding characters in the range U+0020 to U+007E represent a potential security
  vulnerability: a user agent that does not support the encoding (or does not support the label used
  to declare the encoding, or does not use the same mechanism to detect the encoding of unlabeled
  content as another user agent) might end up interpreting technically benign plain text content as
  HTML tags and JavaScript. Authors should therefore not use these encodings. For example, this
  applies to encodings in which the bytes corresponding to "<code title="">&lt;script&gt;</code>" in
  ASCII can encode a different string. Authors should not use such encodings, which are known to
  include JIS_C6226-1983<!-- aka JIS-X-0208, x-JIS0208 -->, JIS_X0212-1990<!-- aka JIS-X-0212 -->,

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element allows authors to embed style information in their documents.

  user.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-style-type" title="attr-style-type"><code>type</code></dfn> attribute gives the styling language.
  If the attribute is present, its value must be a <a href="#valid-mime-type">valid MIME type</a> that designates a

  value for the <code title="attr-style-type"><a href="#attr-style-type">type</a></code> attribute, which is used if the attribute

  <p>When a style sheet is ready to be applied, its <a href="#style-sheet-ready">style sheet ready</a> flag must be set.
  If the style sheet referenced no other resources (e.g. it was an internal style sheet given by a
  <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element with no <code title="">@import</code> rules), then the style rules must
  be synchronously made available to script; otherwise, the style rules must only be made available
  to script once the <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> reaches its "update the rendering" step.</p>

  <p>A style sheet in the context of the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of an <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a> or

  up on that particular style sheet yet. A user agent may give up on a style sheet at any time.</p>

  <p class="note">Giving up on a style sheet before the style sheet loads, if the style sheet
  eventually does still load, means that the script might end up operating with incorrect
  information. For example, if a style sheet sets the color of an element to green, but a script
  that inspects the resulting style is executed before the sheet is loaded, the script will find
  that the element is black (or whatever the default color is), and might thus make poor choices
  (e.g. deciding to use black as the color elsewhere on the page, instead of green). Implementors
  have to balance the likelihood of a script using incorrect information with the performance impact
  of doing nothing while waiting for a slow network request to finish.</p>

  <h3 id="scripting-1"><span class="secno">4.3 </span>Scripting</h3>

  <p>Scripts allow authors to add interactivity to their documents.</p>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to use declarative alternatives to scripting where possible, as
  declarative mechanisms are often more maintainable, and many users disable scripting.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, instead of using script to show or hide a section to show more details, the
   <code><a href="#the-details-element">details</a></code> element could be used.</p>

  </div>

  <p>Authors are also encouraged to make their applications degrade gracefully in the absence of
  scripting support.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, if an author provides a link in a table header to dynamically resort the table,
   the link could also be made to function without scripts by requesting the sorted table from the
   server.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element allows authors to include dynamic script and data blocks in
  their documents. The element does not <a href="#represents" title="represents">represent</a> content for the
  user.</p>

  <p>When used to include dynamic scripts, the scripts may either be embedded inline or may be
  imported from an external file using the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute. If
  the language is not that described by "<code title="">text/javascript</code>", then the <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute must be present, as described below. Whatever
  language is used, the contents of the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element must conform with the
  requirements of that language's specification.</p>

  <p>When used to include data blocks (as opposed to scripts), the data must be embedded inline, the
  format of the data must be given using the <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute,
  the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute must not be specified, and the contents of
  the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element must conform to the requirements defined for the format used.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-script-type" title="attr-script-type"><code>type</code></dfn> attribute gives the language of the
  script or format of the data. If the attribute is present, its value must be a <a href="#valid-mime-type">valid MIME
  type</a>. The <code title="">charset</code> parameter must not be specified. The default, which
  is used if the attribute is absent, is "<code title="">text/javascript</code>".</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-script-src" title="attr-script-src"><code>src</code></dfn> attribute, if specified, gives the
  address of the external script resource to use. The value of the attribute must be a <a href="#valid-non-empty-url-potentially-surrounded-by-spaces">valid
  non-empty URL potentially surrounded by spaces</a> identifying a script resource of the type
  given by the <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute, if the attribute is present, or
  of the type "<code title="">text/javascript</code>", if the attribute is absent. A resource is a
  script resource of a given type if that type identifies a scripting language and the resource
  conforms with the requirements of that language's specification.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-script-charset" title="attr-script-charset"><code>charset</code></dfn> attribute gives the character
  encoding of the external script resource. The attribute must not be specified if the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is not present. If the attribute is set, its value
  must be an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for one of the <a href="#encoding-label" title="encoding
  label">labels</a> of an <a href="#encoding">encoding</a>, and must specify the same <a href="#encoding">encoding</a> as
  the <code title="">charset</code> parameter of the <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type
  metadata</a> of the external file, if any. <a href="#refsENCODING">[ENCODING]</a></p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-script-async" title="attr-script-async"><code>async</code></dfn> and <dfn id="attr-script-defer" title="attr-script-defer"><code>defer</code></dfn> attributes are <a href="#boolean-attribute" title="boolean
  attribute">boolean attributes</a> that indicate how the script should be executed. The <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> and <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> attributes
  must not be specified if the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is not
  present.</p>

  <p>There are three possible modes that can be selected using these attributes. If the <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> attribute is present, then the script will be executed
  asynchronously, as soon as it is available. If the <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code>
  attribute is not present but the <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> attribute is
  present, then the script is executed when the page has finished parsing. If neither attribute is
  present, then the script is fetched and executed immediately, before the user agent continues
  parsing the page.</p>

  <p class="note">The exact processing details for these attributes are, for mostly historical
  reasons, somewhat non-trivial, involving a number of aspects of HTML. The implementation
  requirements are therefore by necessity scattered throughout the specification. The algorithms
  below (in this section) describe the core of this processing, but these algorithms reference and
  are referenced by the parsing rules for <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> <a href="#scriptTag">start</a> and <a href="#scriptEndTag">end</a> tags in HTML, <a href="#scriptForeignEndTag">in foreign content</a>,
  and <a href="#scriptTagXML">in XML</a>, the rules for the <code title="dom-document-write"><a href="#dom-document-write">document.write()</a></code> method, the handling of <a href="#scripting">scripting</a>, etc.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> attribute may be specified even if the <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> attribute is specified, to cause legacy Web browsers that
  only support <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> (and not <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code>) to fall back to the <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> behavior instead of the synchronous blocking behavior that
  is the default.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-script-crossorigin" title="attr-script-crossorigin"><code>crossorigin</code></dfn> attribute is a
  <a href="#cors-settings-attribute">CORS settings attribute</a>. It controls, for scripts that are obtained from other <a href="#origin-0" title="origin">origins</a>, whether error information will be exposed.</p>

  <p>Changing the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code>, <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code>, <code title="attr-script-charset"><a href="#attr-script-charset">charset</a></code>, <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code>, <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code>, and <code title="attr-script-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-script-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> attributes dynamically has no direct effect;
  these attribute are only used at specific times described below.</p> <!-- by implication, changes
  to the base URL also have no effect -->

  <div class="impl">

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element has several associated pieces of state.</p>

  <p>The first is a flag indicating whether or not the script block has been <dfn id="already-started">"already
  started"</dfn>. Initially, <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements must have this flag unset (script blocks,
  when created, are not "already started"). The <a href="#concept-node-clone-ext" title="concept-node-clone-ext">cloning
  steps</a> for <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements must set the "already started" flag on the copy if
  it is set on the element being cloned.</p>

  <p>The second is a flag indicating whether the element was <dfn id="parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</dfn>.
  Initially, <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements must have this flag unset. It is set by the <a href="#html-parser">HTML
  parser</a> and the <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a> on <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements they insert and
  affects the processing of those elements.</p>

  <p>The third is a flag indicating whether the element will <dfn id="force-async">"force-async"</dfn>. Initially,
  <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements must have this flag set. It is unset by the <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a>
  and the <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a> on <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements they insert. In addition, whenever
  a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element whose <a href="#force-async">"force-async"</a> flag is set has a <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> content attribute added, the element's
  <a href="#force-async">"force-async"</a> flag must be unset.</p> <!-- there's no need to unset it when the
  attribute is removed since you can't have the attribute and the flag set at once. -->

  <p>The fourth is a flag indicating whether or not the script block is <dfn id="ready-to-be-parser-executed">"ready to be
  parser-executed"</dfn>. Initially, <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements must have this flag unset (script
  blocks, when created, are not "ready to be parser-executed"). This flag is used only for elements
  that are also <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a>, to let the parser know when to execute the
  script.</p>

  <p>The last few pieces of state are <dfn id="the-script-block's-type"><var>the script block's type</var></dfn>, <dfn id="the-script-block's-character-encoding"><var>the
  script block's character encoding</var></dfn>, and <dfn id="the-script-block's-fallback-character-encoding"><var>the script block's fallback character
  encoding</var></dfn>. They are determined when the script is prepared, based on the attributes on
  the element at that time, and the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element that is not marked as being <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a>
  experiences one of the events listed in the following list, the user agent must synchronously
  <a href="#prepare-a-script" title="prepare a script">prepare</a> the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>The <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element gets <a href="#insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an element into a document">inserted
   into a document</a>, at the time the <a href="#nodes-are-inserted" title="nodes are inserted">node is inserted</a>
   according to the DOM, after any other <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements inserted at the same time that
   are earlier in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a>.</li>

   <li>The <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a> and a node or
   document fragment is <a href="#nodes-are-inserted" title="nodes are inserted">inserted</a> into the
   <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element, after any <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements <a href="#nodes-are-inserted" title="nodes are
   inserted">inserted</a> at that time.</li>

   <li>The <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a> and has a <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute set where previously the element had no such
   attribute.</li>

  </ul>

  <p>To <dfn id="prepare-a-script" title="prepare a script">prepare a script</dfn>, the user agent must act as
  follows:</p>

  <ol>

   <li>

    <p>If the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is marked as having <a href="#already-started">"already started"</a>, then
    the user agent must abort these steps at this point. The script is not executed.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>If the element has its <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a> flag set, then set <var title="">was-parser-inserted</var> to true and unset the element's
    <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a> flag. Otherwise, set <var title="">was-parser-inserted</var> to
    false.</p>

    <p class="note">This is done so that if parser-inserted <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements fail to run
    when the parser tries to run them, e.g. because they are empty or specify an unsupported
    scripting language, another script can later mutate them and cause them to run again.</p>

    <!-- q.v. http://hsivonen.iki.fi/test/moz/script-setting-src-on-parser-inserted-script.html -->

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>If <var title="">was-parser-inserted</var> is true and the element does not have an <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> attribute, then set the element's
    <a href="#force-async">"force-async"</a> flag to true.</p>

    <p class="note">This is done so that if a parser-inserted <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element fails to
    run when the parser tries to run it, but it is later executed after a script dynamically updates
    it, it will execute asynchronously even if the <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code>
    attribute isn't set.</p>

   </li>

   <li id="script-processing-empty">

    <p>If the element has no <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute, and its child
    nodes, if any, consist only of comment nodes and empty <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes, then the user
    agent must abort these steps at this point. The script is not executed.</p>

      <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a>, with the <i>mode</i> being the state of the element's <code title="attr-script-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-script-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> content attribute, the <i title="">origin</i> being the <a href="#origin-0">origin</a> of the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element's
      <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, and the <i>default origin behaviour</i> set to <i>taint</i>.</p>

      <p>The resource obtained in this fashion can be either <a href="#cors-same-origin">CORS-same-origin</a> or
      <a href="#cors-cross-origin">CORS-cross-origin</a>. This only affects how error reporting happens.</p>

      <p>For historical reasons, if the <a href="#url">URL</a> is a <a href="#javascript-protocol" title="javascript
      protocol"><code title="">javascript:</code> URL</a>, then the user agent must not, despite
      the requirements in the definition of the <a href="#fetch" title="fetch">fetching</a> algorithm,
      actually execute the script in the URL; instead the user agent must act as if it had received
      an empty HTTP 400 response.</p>

      <p>For performance reasons, user agents may start fetching the script (as defined above) as
      soon as the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is set, instead, in the hope
      that the element will be inserted into the document (and that the <code title="attr-script-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-script-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> attribute won't change value in the
      meantime). Either way, once the element is <a href="#insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an element into a
      document">inserted into the document</a>, the load must have started as described in this
      step. If the UA performs such prefetching, but the element is never inserted in the document,
      or the <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is dynamically changed,<!-- or the
      base URL is dynamically changed,--> or the <code title="attr-script-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-script-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> attribute is dynamically changed, then the
      user agent will not execute the script so obtained, and the fetching process will have been
      effectively wasted.</p>

   <p>In this example, two <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements are used. One embeds an external script, and
   the other includes some data.</p>

   <pre>&lt;script src="game-engine.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script type="text/x-game-map"&gt;
........U.........e
o............A....e
.....A.....AAA....e
.A..AAA...AAAAA...e
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

   <p>The data in this case might be used by the script to generate the map of a video game. The
   data doesn't have to be used that way, though; maybe the map data is actually embedded in other
   parts of the page's markup, and the data block here is just used by the site's search engine to
   help users who are looking for particular features in their game maps.</p>

  <h5 id="scriptTagXSLT"><span class="secno">4.3.1.4 </span>Interaction of <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements and XSLT</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This specification does not define how XSLT interacts with the <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element.
  However, in the absence of another specification actually defining this, here are some guidelines
  for implementors, based on existing implementations:</p>

  <ul>

   <li><p>When an XSLT transformation program is triggered by an <code title="">&lt;?xml-stylesheet?&gt;</code> processing instruction and the browser implements a
   direct-to-DOM transformation, <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements created by the XSLT processor need to
   be marked <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a> and run in document order (modulo scripts marked <code title="attr-script-defer"><a href="#attr-script-defer">defer</a></code> or <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code>),
   asynchronously while the transformation is occurring.</p></li>

   <li><p>The <code title="dom-XSLTProcessor-transformToDocument">XSLTProcessor.transformToDocument()</code> method
   adds elements to a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> that is not in a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>, and,
   accordingly, any <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements they create need to have their <a href="#already-started">"already
   started"</a> flag set in the <a href="#prepare-a-script">prepare a script</a> algorithm and never get executed
   (<a href="#concept-bc-noscript" title="concept-bc-noscript">scripting is disabled</a>). Such <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code>
   elements still need to be marked <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a>, though, such that their <code title="dom-script-async"><a href="#dom-script-async">async</a></code> IDL attribute will return false in the absence of an <code title="attr-script-async"><a href="#attr-script-async">async</a></code> content attribute.</p></li>

   <li><p>The <code title="dom-XSLTProcessor-transformToFragment">XSLTProcessor.transformToFragment()</code> method
   needs to create a fragment that is equivalent to one built manually by creating the elements
   using <code title="dom-document-createElementNS"><a href="#dom-document-createelementns">document.createElementNS()</a></code>. For instance,
   it needs to create <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements that aren't <a href="#parser-inserted">"parser-inserted"</a> and
   that don't have their <a href="#already-started">"already started"</a> flag set, so that they will execute when the
   fragment is inserted into a document.</p></li>

  </ul>

  <p>The main distinction between the first two cases and the last case is that the first two
  operate on <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s and the last operates on a fragment.</p>

  is by essentially "turning off" the parser when scripts are enabled, so that the contents of the

 &lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;script&gt;
  var x = document.getElementById('x');
  var output = document.createElement('p');
  output.textContent = 'Type a number; it will be squared right then!';
  x.form.appendChild(output);
  x.form.onsubmit = function () { return false; }
  x.oninput = function () {
    var v = x.valueAsNumber;
    output.textContent = v + ' squared is ' + v * v;
  };
 &lt;/script&gt;
 &lt;noscript&gt;
  &lt;input type=submit value="Calculate Square"&gt;
 &lt;/noscript&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

   <p>When script is disabled, a button appears to do the calculation on the server side. When
   script is enabled, the value is computed on-the-fly instead.</p>

   <p>The <code><a href="#the-noscript-element">noscript</a></code> element is a blunt instrument. Sometimes, scripts might be enabled,
   but for some reason the page's script might fail. For this reason, it's generally better to avoid
   using <code><a href="#the-noscript-element">noscript</a></code>, and to instead design the script to change the page from being a
   scriptless page to a scripted page on the fly, as in the next example:</p>

   <pre>&lt;form action="calcSquare.php"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;
  &lt;label for=x&gt;Number&lt;/label&gt;:
  &lt;input id="x" name="x" type="number"&gt;
 &lt;/p&gt;
 <strong>&lt;input id="submit" type=submit value="Calculate Square"&gt;</strong>
 &lt;script&gt;
  var x = document.getElementById('x');
  var output = document.createElement('p');
  output.textContent = 'Type a number; it will be squared right then!';
  x.form.appendChild(output);
  x.form.onsubmit = function () { return false; }
  x.oninput = function () {
    var v = x.valueAsNumber;
    output.textContent = v + ' squared is ' + v * v;
  };
<strong>  var submit = document.getElementById('submit');
  submit.parentNode.removeChild(submit);</strong>
 &lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

   <p>The above technique is also useful in XHTML, since <code><a href="#the-noscript-element">noscript</a></code> is not supported in
   <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML syntax</a>.</p>

  <p>This specification does not define how XSLT and XPath interact with the <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code>

  <ul>

   <li><p>An XSLT processor based on an XML parser that acts <a href="#xml-parser" title="xml parser">as described

   descendants their <a href="#template-contents">template contents</a> for the purposes of the transform.</p></li>

   <li><p>An XSLT processor that outputs a DOM needs to ensure that nodes that would go into a
   <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> element are instead placed into the element's <a href="#template-contents">template
   contents</a>.</p></li>

   <li><p>XPath evaluation using the XPath DOM API when applied to a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> parsed

  <a href="#event-handler-content-attributes" title="event handler content attributes">event handler content

  <p>When <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> elements are nested, the inner <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> elements

  <p>Author information associated with an <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> element (q.v. the

  <p>When the main content of the page (i.e. excluding footers, headers, navigation blocks, and

  <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element and the content may also be marked with an <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code>, but

   <p>Notice the use of <code><a href="#the-footer-element">footer</a></code> to give the information for each comment (such as who
   wrote it and when): the <code><a href="#the-footer-element">footer</a></code> element <em>can</em> appear at the start of its
   section when appropriate, such as in this case. (Using <code><a href="#the-header-element">header</a></code> in this case wouldn't
   be wrong either; it's mostly a matter of authoring preference.)</p>

  <p class="rep">The <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a generic section of a document or
  application. A section, in this context, is a thematic grouping of content, typically with a
  heading.</p>

  <p class="example">Examples of sections would be chapters, the various tabbed pages in a tabbed
  dialog box, or the numbered sections of a thesis. A Web site's home page could be split into
  sections for an introduction, news items, and contact information.</p>

  <p class="note">Authors are encouraged to use the <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> element instead of the
  <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> element when it would make sense to syndicate the contents of the
  element.</p>

  <p class="note" id="use-div-for-wrappers">The <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> element is not a generic
  container element. When an element is needed only for styling purposes or as a convenience for
  scripting, authors are encouraged to use the <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element instead. A general rule is
  that the <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> element is appropriate only if the element's contents would be
  listed explicitly in the document's <a href="#outline">outline</a>.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, we see an article (part of a larger Web page) about apples,

  &lt;p&gt;These juicy, green apples make a great filling for
  apple pies.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/section&gt;
&lt;/article&gt;</pre>
 <!--FORK END-->
   <p>Notice how the use of <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> means that the author can use <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code>
   elements throughout, without having to worry about whether a particular section is at the top
   level, the second level, the third level, and so on.</p>

  <p class="note">Not all groups of links on a page need to be in a <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code> element —
  the element is primarily intended for sections that consist of major navigation blocks. In
  particular, it is common for footers to have a short list of links to various pages of a site,
  such as the terms of service, the home page, and a copyright page. The <code><a href="#the-footer-element">footer</a></code> element
  alone is sufficient for such cases; while a <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code> element can be used in such cases, it
  is usually unnecessary.</p>

  <p class="note">User agents (such as screen readers) that are targeted at users who can benefit

Instead use the markup patterns in the <a href="#common-idioms">Common idioms without dedicated elements</a> section of the specification.</p>
 <!--FORK END-->
  <p>Certain elements are said to be <dfn id="sectioning-root" title="sectioning
  root">sectioning roots</dfn>, including <code><a href="#the-blockquote-element">blockquote</a></code> and

     Foo (heading of explicit <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> section, containing the "Grunt" paragraph)

  <p>Sections may contain headings of any <a href="#rank">rank</a>, and

   <p>Both of the documents above are semantically identical and would
   produce the same outline in compliant user agents.</p>

   <p>This third example is also semantically identical, and might be
   easier to maintain (e.g. if sections are often moved around in
   editing):</p>

   <pre>&lt;body&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Apples&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Apples are fruit.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;section&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Taste&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;They taste lovely.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;section&gt;
   &lt;h1&gt;Sweet&lt;/h1&gt;
   &lt;p&gt;Red apples are sweeter than green ones.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/section&gt;
 &lt;/section&gt;
 &lt;section&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;Color&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Apples come in various colors.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/section&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;</pre>

   <p>This final example would need explicit style rules to be
   rendered well in legacy browsers. Legacy browsers without CSS
   support would render all the headings as top-level headings.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <!-- v2 idea: It would be nice if there was a way to use this to
  autogenerate a table of contents or some such -->

  <p>This section defines an algorithm for creating an outline for a
  <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a> element or a <a href="#sectioning-root">sectioning
  root</a> element. It is defined in terms of a walk over the nodes
  of a DOM tree, in tree order, with each node being visited when it
  is <i>entered</i> and when it is <i>exited</i> during the walk.</p>

  </div>

  <p>The <dfn id="outline">outline</dfn> for a <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a>
  element or a <a href="#sectioning-root">sectioning root</a> element consists of a list
  of one or more potentially nested <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">sections</a>. A <dfn id="concept-section" title="concept-section">section</dfn> is a container that
  corresponds to some nodes in the original DOM tree. Each section can
  have one heading associated with it, and can contain any number of
  further nested sections. <span class="impl">The algorithm for the
  outline also associates each node in the DOM tree with a particular
  section and potentially a heading.</span> (The sections in the
  outline aren't <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> elements, though some may
  correspond to such elements — they are merely conceptual
  sections.)</p>

  <div class="example">

 &lt;h2&gt;E&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;F&lt;/p&gt;

  <p>The tree of sections created by the algorithm above, or a proper
  subset thereof, must be used when generating document outlines, for
  example when generating tables of contents.</p>

  <p>The outline created for <a href="#the-body-element-0">the body element</a> of a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is the <a href="#outline">outline</a> of the entire
  document.</p>

  <p>When creating an interactive table of contents, entries should
  jump the user to the relevant <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a>
  element, if the <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">section</a> was
  created for a real element in the original document, or to the
  relevant <a href="#heading-content-0">heading content</a> element, if the <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">section</a> in the tree was generated for
  a heading in the above process.</p>

  <p class="note">Selecting the first <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">section</a> of the document therefore
  always takes the user to the top of the document, regardless of
  where the first heading in the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> is to be found.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="outline-depth">outline depth</dfn> of a <a href="#heading-content-0">heading content</a>
  element associated with a <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">section</a> <var title="">section</var>
  is the number of <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">sections</a> that
  are ancestors of <var title="">section</var> in the outermost
  <a href="#outline">outline</a> that <var title="">section</var> finds itself
  in when the <a href="#outline" title="outline">outlines</a> of its
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s elements are created, plus 1. The
  <a href="#outline-depth">outline depth</a> of a <a href="#heading-content-0">heading content</a> element
  not associated with a <a href="#concept-section" title="concept-section">section</a>
  is 1.</p>

  <p>User agents should provide default headings for sections that do
  not have explicit section headings.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider the following snippet:</p>

   <pre>&lt;body&gt;
 &lt;nav&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/nav&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Hello world.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;aside&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;My cat is cute.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/aside&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;</pre>

   <p>Although it contains no headings, this snippet has three
   sections: a document (the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>) with two subsections
   (a <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code> and an <code><a href="#the-aside-element">aside</a></code>). A user agent could
   present the outline as follows:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li>Untitled document
     <ol>
      <li>Navigation</li>
      <li>Sidebar</li>
     </ol>
    </li>
   </ol>

   <p>These default headings ("Untitled document", "Navigation",
   "Sidebar") are not specified by this specification, and might vary
   with the user's language, the page's language, the user's
   preferences, the user agent implementor's preferences, etc.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="note">

   <p>The following JavaScript function shows how the tree walk could
   be implemented. The <var title="">root</var> argument is the root
   of the tree to walk (either a <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a>

&lt;h3&gt;Cheap things&lt;/h3&gt;

   <p>This book would form the same outline:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li> The Tax Book

     </li></ol>
   </li></ol>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>A document can contain multiple top-level headings:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Alphabetic Fruit&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Apples&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pomaceous.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Bananas&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Carambola&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Star.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>This would form the following simple outline consisting of three top-level sections:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li> Apples
    </li><li> Bananas
    </li><li> Carambola
   </li></ol>

   <p>Effectively, the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element is split into three.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Mixing both the <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code>–<code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h6</a></code> model and the
   <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code>/<code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> model can lead to some unintuitive results.</p>

   <p>Consider for example the following, which is just the previous example but with the contents
   of the (implied) <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> wrapped in a <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code>:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Alphabetic Fruit&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Apples&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Pomaceous.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Bananas&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Edible.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Carambola&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Star.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

   <p>The resulting outline would be:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li> <i>(untitled page)</i>
     <ol class="brief">
      <li> Apples
      </li><li> Bananas
      </li><li> Carambola
     </li></ol>
   </li></ol>

   <p>This result is described as <i>unintuitive</i> because it results in three subsections even
   though there's only one <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> element. Effectively, the <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> is
   split into three, just like the implied <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element in the previous example.</p>

   <p>(In this example, "<i>(untitled page)</i>" is the implied heading for the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>
   element, since it has no explicit heading.)</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Headings never rise above other sections. Thus, in the following example, the first
   <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> does not actually describe the page header; it describes the header for the
   second half of the page:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Feathers on The Site of Encyclopedic Knowledge&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;A plea from our caretakers&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Please, we beg of you, send help! We're stuck in the server room!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Feathers&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Epidermal growths.&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>

   <p>The resulting outline would be:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li> <i>(untitled page)</i>
     <ol class="brief">
      <li> A plea from our caretakers
     </li></ol>
    </li><li> Feathers
   </li></ol>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Thus, when an <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> element starts with a <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code> block and only later
   has its heading, the result is that the <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code> block is not part of the same section as
   the rest of the <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> in the outline. For instance, take this document:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;title&gt;We're adopting a child! — Ray's blog&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Ray's blog&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;main&gt;
 &lt;article&gt;
 &lt;header&gt;
  &lt;nav&gt;
   &lt;a href="?t=-1d"&gt;Yesterday&lt;/a&gt;;
   &lt;a href="?t=-7d"&gt;Last week&lt;/a&gt;;
   &lt;a href="?t=-1m"&gt;Last month&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;/nav&gt;
  &lt;h1&gt;We're adopting a child!&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;/header&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;As of today, Janine and I have signed the papers to become
  the proud parents of baby Diane! We've been looking forward to
  this day for weeks.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/article&gt;
&lt;/main&gt;</pre>

   <p>The resulting outline would be:</p>

   <ol class="brief">
    <li> Ray's blog
     <ol class="brief">
      <li> <i>Untitled article</i>
       <ol class="brief">
        <li> <i>Untitled navigation section</i>
       </li></ol>
      </li><li> We're adopting a child!
     </li></ol>
   </li></ol>

   <p>Also worthy of note in this example is that the <code><a href="#the-header-element">header</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code>
   elements have no effect whatsoever on the document outline.</p>

  <h5 id="article-or-section"><span class="secno">4.4.11.1 </span>Article or section?</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>A <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> forms part of something else. An <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> is its own thing.
  But how does one know which is which? Mostly the real answer is "it depends on author intent".</p>

  <p>For example, one could imagine a book with a "Granny Smith" chapter that just said "These
  juicy, green apples make a great filling for apple pies."; that would be a <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code>
  because there'd be lots of other chapters on (maybe) other kinds of apples.</p>

  <p>On the other hand, one could imagine a tweet or reddit comment or tumblr post or newspaper
  classified ad that just said "Granny Smith. These juicy, green apples make a great filling for
  apple pies."; it would then be <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code>s because that was the whole thing.</p>

  <p>A comment on an article is not part of the <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> on which it is commenting,
  therefore it is its own <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code>.</p>

  <p class="note">While paragraphs are usually represented in visual media by blocks of text that
  are physically separated from adjacent blocks through blank lines, a style sheet or user agent
  would be equally justified in presenting paragraph breaks in a different manner, for instance
  using inline pilcrows (¶).</p>

  <div class="example">

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;There was once an example from Femley,&lt;br&gt;
Whose markup was of dubious quality.&lt;br&gt;
The validator complained,&lt;br&gt;
So the author was pained,&lt;br&gt;
To move the error from the markup to the rhyming.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>
  </div>

  <p class="auth">The <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element should not be used when a more specific element is more
  appropriate.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following example is technically correct:</p>

<pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Last modified: 2001-04-23&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Author: fred@example.com&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

   <p>However, it would be better marked-up as:</p>

<pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
 &lt;footer&gt;Last modified: 2001-04-23&lt;/footer&gt;
 &lt;address&gt;Author: fred@example.com&lt;/address&gt;

 &lt;/footer&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="note">

   <p>List elements (in particular, <code><a href="#the-ol-element">ol</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> elements) cannot be children
   of <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements. When a sentence contains a bulleted list, therefore, one might wonder
   how it should be marked up.</p>

   <div class="example">
    <p>For instance, this fantastic sentence has bullets relating to</p>
    <ul>
     <li>wizards,
     </li><li>faster-than-light travel, and
     </li><li>telepathy,
    </li></ul>
    <p>and is further discussed below.</p>
   </div>

   <p>The solution is to realise that a <i><a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a></i>, in HTML terms, is not a logical concept,
   but a structural one. In the fantastic example above, there are actually <em>five</em> <a href="#paragraph" title="paragraph">paragraphs</a> as defined by this specification: one before the list, one
   for each bullet, and one after the list.</p>

   <div class="example">

    <p>The markup for the above example could therefore be:</p>

    <pre>&lt;p&gt;For instance, this fantastic sentence has bullets relating to&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;wizards,
 &lt;li&gt;faster-than-light travel, and
 &lt;li&gt;telepathy,
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and is further discussed below.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   </div>

   <p>Authors wishing to conveniently style such "logical" paragraphs consisting of multiple
   "structural" paragraphs can use the <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element instead of the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>
   element.</p>

   <div class="example">

    <p>Thus for instance the above example could become the following:</p>

    <pre>&lt;div&gt;For instance, this fantastic sentence has bullets relating to
&lt;ul&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;wizards,
 &lt;li&gt;faster-than-light travel, and
 &lt;li&gt;telepathy,
&lt;/ul&gt;
and is further discussed below.&lt;/div&gt;</pre>

    <p>This example still has five structural paragraphs, but now the author can style just the
    <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> instead of having to consider each part of the example separately.</p>

  a story, or a transition to another topic within a section of a
  reference book.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following fictional extract from a project manual shows two
   sections that use the <code><a href="#the-hr-element">hr</a></code> element to separate topics
   within the section.</p>

 &lt;h1&gt;Communication&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;There are various methods of communication. This section
 covers a few of the important ones used by the project.&lt;/p&gt;
 <strong><a href="#the-hr-element">&lt;hr&gt;</a></strong>
 &lt;p&gt;Communication stones seem to come in pairs and have mysterious
 properties:&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;They can transfer thoughts in two directions once activated
  if used alone.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;If used with another device, they can transfer one's
  consciousness to another body.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;If both stones are used with another device, the
  consciousnesses switch bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 <strong><a href="#the-hr-element">&lt;hr&gt;</a></strong>
 &lt;p&gt;Radios use the electromagnetic spectrum in the meter range and
 longer.&lt;/p&gt;
 <strong><a href="#the-hr-element">&lt;hr&gt;</a></strong>
 &lt;p&gt;Signal flares use the electromagnetic spectrum in the
 nanometer range.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;
&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Food&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;All food at the project is rationed:&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;dl&gt;
  &lt;dt&gt;Potatoes&lt;/dt&gt;
  &lt;dd&gt;Two per day&lt;/dd&gt;
  &lt;dt&gt;Soup&lt;/dt&gt;
  &lt;dd&gt;One bowl per day&lt;/dd&gt;
 &lt;/dl&gt;
 <strong><a href="#the-hr-element">&lt;hr&gt;</a></strong>
 &lt;p&gt;Cooking is done by the chefs on a set rotation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

   <p>There is no need for an <code><a href="#the-hr-element">hr</a></code> element between the
   sections themselves, since the <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code> elements and
   the <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> elements imply thematic changes themselves.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following extract from <cite>Pandora's Star</cite> by Peter
   F. Hamilton shows two paragraphs that precede a scene change and
   the paragraph that follows it. The scene change, represented in the
   printed book by a gap containing a solitary centered star between
   the second and third paragraphs, is here represented using the
   <code><a href="#the-hr-element">hr</a></code> element.</p>

   <pre lang="en-GB">&lt;p&gt;Dudley was ninety-two, in his second life, and fast approaching
time for another rejuvenation. Despite his body having the physical
age of a standard fifty-year-old, the prospect of a long degrading
campaign within academia was one he regarded with dread. For a
supposedly advanced civilization, the Intersolar Commonwealth could be
appallingly backward at times, not to mention cruel.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Maybe it won't be that bad&lt;/i&gt;, he told himself. The lie was
comforting enough to get him through the rest of the night's
shift.&lt;/p&gt;
<strong><a href="#the-hr-element">&lt;hr&gt;</a></strong>
&lt;p&gt;The Carlton AllLander drove Dudley home just after dawn. Like the
astronomer, the vehicle was old and worn, but perfectly capable of
doing its job. It had a cheap diesel engine, common enough on a
semi-frontier world like Gralmond, although its drive array was a
thoroughly modern photoneural processor. With its high suspension and
deep-tread tyres it could plough along the dirt track to the
observatory in all weather and seasons, including the metre-deep snow
of Gralmond's winters.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-ol-element">ol</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a list of

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-ol-reversed" title="attr-ol-reversed"><code>reversed</code></dfn>

  indicates that the list is a descending list (..., 3, 2, 1). If the
  attribute is omitted, the list is an ascending list (1, 2, 3,
  ...).</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-ol-start" title="attr-ol-start"><code>start</code></dfn>
  attribute, if present, must be a <a href="#valid-integer">valid integer</a> giving
  the <a href="#ordinal-value">ordinal value</a> of the first list item.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> an
  association list consisting of zero or more name-value groups (a
  description list). A name-value group consists of one or more names
  (<code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> elements) followed by one or more values
  (<code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> elements), ignoring any nodes other than <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> elements. Within a single <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element,
  there should not be more than one <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> element for each
  name.</p>

  <p>Name-value groups may be terms and definitions, metadata topics
  and values, questions and answers, or any other groups of name-value
  data.</p>

  <p>The values within a group are alternatives; multiple paragraphs
  forming part of the same value must all be given within the same
  <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>The order of the list of groups, and of the names and values
  within each group, may be significant.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If a <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element is empty, it contains no groups.</p>

  (including any <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> elements), do not
  form part of any groups in that <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code>.</p>

  <p>If a <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element has one or more <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code>
  element children but no <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> element children, then it
  consists of one group with names but no values.</p>

  <p>If a <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element has one or more <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code>
  element children but no <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> element children, then it
  consists of one group with values but no names.</p>

  <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> element child is a <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> element, then the
  first group has no associated name.</p>

  <p>If a <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element's last <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> or
  <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code> element child is a <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> element, then the
  last group has no associated value.</p>

  <p class="note">When a <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> element doesn't match its
  content model, it is often due to accidentally using <code><a href="#the-dd-element">dd</a></code>
  elements in the place of <code><a href="#the-dt-element">dt</a></code> elements and vice
  versa. Conformance checkers can spot such mistakes and might be able
  to advise authors how to correctly use the markup.</p>

  <!-- v2: Add a <credit> element for photo credits -->

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> some <a href="#flow-content-1">flow content</a>,
  optionally with a caption, that is self-contained (like a complete sentence) and is typically
  referenced as a single unit from the main flow of the document.</p>

  <p class="note">Self-contained in this context does not necessarily mean independent. For example,
  each sentence in a paragraph is self-contained; an image that is part of a sentence would be
  inappropriate for <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code>, but an entire sentence made of images would be fitting.</p>

  <div class="note">

   <p>When a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> is referred to from the main content of the document by identifying
   it by its caption (e.g. by figure number), it enables such content to be easily moved away from
   that primary content, e.g. to the side of the page, to dedicated pages, or to an appendix, without
   affecting the flow of the document.</p>

   <p>If a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element is referenced by its relative position, e.g. "in the
   photograph above" or "as the next figure shows", then moving the figure would disrupt the page's
   meaning. Authors are encouraged to consider using labels to refer to figures, rather than using
   such relative references, so that the page can easily be restyled without affecting the page's
   meaning.</p>

  </div>

  <p>The <span class="impl">first</span> <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element child of the element, if
  any, represents the caption of the <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element's contents. If there is no child
  <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element, then there is no caption.</p>

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element's contents are part of the surrounding flow. If the purpose of
  the page is to display the figure, for example a photograph on an image sharing site, the
  <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> elements can be used to explicitly provide a
  caption for that figure. For content that is only tangentially related, or that serves a separate
  purpose than the surrounding flow, the <code><a href="#the-aside-element">aside</a></code> element should be used (and can itself
  wrap a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code>). For example, a pull quote that repeats content from an
  <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code> would be more appropriate in an <code><a href="#the-aside-element">aside</a></code> than in a
  <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code>, because it isn't part of the content, it's a repetition of the content for
  the purposes of enticing readers or highlighting key topics.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element has no special meaning at all. It
  <a href="#represents">represents</a> its children. It can be used with the <code title="attr-class"><a href="#classes">class</a></code>, <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code>, and <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attributes to mark up semantics
  common to a group of consecutive elements.</p>

  <p class="note">Authors are strongly encouraged to view the
  <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element as an element of last resort, for when no
  other element is suitable. Use of more appropriate elements instead
  of the <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element leads to better accessibility for
  readers and easier maintainability for authors.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, a blog post would be marked up using
   <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code>, a chapter using <code><a href="#the-section-element">section</a></code>, a
   page's navigation aids using <code><a href="#the-nav-element">nav</a></code>, and a group of form
   controls using <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code>.</p>

   <p>On the other hand, <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> elements can be useful for
   stylistic purposes or to wrap multiple paragraphs within a section
   that are all to be annotated in a similar way. In the following
   example, we see <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> elements used as a way to set the
   language of two paragraphs at once, instead of setting the language
   on the two paragraph elements separately:</p>

   <pre>&lt;article lang="en-US"&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;My use of language and my cats&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;My cat's behavior hasn't changed much since her absence, except
 that she plays her new physique to the neighbors regularly, in an
 attempt to get pets.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;div lang="en-GB"&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;My other cat, coloured black and white, is a sweetie. He followed
  us to the pool today, walking down the pavement with us. Yesterday
  he apparently visited our neighbours. I wonder if he recognises that
  their flat is a mirror image of ours.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Hm, I just noticed that in the last paragraph I used British
  English. But I'm supposed to write in American English. So I
  shouldn't say "pavement" or "flat" or "colour"...&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;I should say "sidewalk" and "apartment" and "color"!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/article&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> the <dfn id="main-content">main content</dfn> of the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> 
  of a document or application. The main content area consists of content that is directly related to or expands upon
  the central topic of a document or central functionality of an application.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element is not <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a> and has no effect 
  on the document <a href="#outline">outline</a></p>
  <p>The main content area of a document includes content that is unique to that document and 
  excludes content that is repeated  across a set of documents such as site navigation links, 
  copyright information, site logos and banners and search forms (unless the document or 
  applications main function is that of a search form).</p>  

  <p class="note">User agents that support keyboard navigation of content are strongly encouraged to provide 
  a method to navigate to the <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element and once navigated to, ensure the next 
  element in the focus order is the first focusable element within the <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element. 
  This will provide a simple method for keyboard users to bypass  blocks of content such as navigation links. </p>

  <p class="auth">Authors must not include more than one <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element in a document. </p>
  <p class="auth">Authors must not include the <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element as a descendant of an <code><a href="#the-article-element">article</a></code>,

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element is not suitable for use to identify the main content areas of sub sections of a 
  document or application. The simplest solution is to not mark up the main content of a sub section at all, and just leave it 
  as implicit, but an author could use a <span>grouping content</span> or <a href="#sectioning-content-0">sectioning content</a> element as appropriate.</p> 
  <p class="note">Authors are advised to use ARIA <code>role="main"</code> attribute on the 
  <code><a href="#the-main-element">main</a></code> element until user agents implement the required role mapping.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, we see 2 articles about skateboards (the main topic of a

  &lt;article&gt;
  &lt;h2&gt;Longboards&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Longboards are a type of skateboard with a longer 
  wheelbase and larger, softer wheels.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/article&gt;

  &lt;article&gt;
  &lt;h2&gt;Electric Skateboards&lt;/h2&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;These no longer require the propelling of the skateboard
  by means of the feet; rather an electric motor propels the board, 
  fed by an electric battery.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;... &lt;/p&gt;

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> stress emphasis of its contents.</p>

  <p>The level of stress that a particular piece of content has is given by its number of ancestor
  <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> elements.</p>

  <p>The placement of stress emphasis changes the meaning of the sentence. The element thus forms an
  integral part of the content. The precise way in which stress is used in this way depends on the
  language.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>These examples show how changing the stress emphasis changes the meaning. First, a general
   statement of fact, with no stress:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;Cats are cute animals.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>By emphasizing the first word, the statement implies that the kind of animal under discussion
   is in question (maybe someone is asserting that dogs are cute):</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Cats&lt;/em&gt; are cute animals.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>Moving the stress to the verb, one highlights that the truth of the entire sentence is in
   question (maybe someone is saying cats are not cute):</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;Cats &lt;em&gt;are&lt;/em&gt; cute animals.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>By moving it to the adjective, the exact nature of the cats is reasserted (maybe someone
   suggested cats were <em>mean</em> animals):</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;Cats are &lt;em&gt;cute&lt;/em&gt; animals.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>Similarly, if someone asserted that cats were vegetables, someone correcting this might
   emphasize the last word:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;Cats are cute &lt;em&gt;animals&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>By emphasizing the entire sentence, it becomes clear that the speaker is fighting hard to get
   the point across. This kind of stress emphasis also typically affects the punctuation, hence the
   exclamation mark here.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Cats are cute animals!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>Anger mixed with emphasizing the cuteness could lead to markup such as:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Cats are &lt;em&gt;cute&lt;/em&gt; animals!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>The <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element isn't a generic "italics" element. Sometimes, text is intended to

   the <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element is more appropriate.</p>

   <p>The <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element also isn't intended to convey importance; for that purpose, the

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> side
  comments such as small print.</p>

  <p class="note">Small print typically features disclaimers, caveats,
  legal restrictions, or copyrights. Small print is also sometimes
  used for attribution, or for satisfying licensing requirements.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code> element does not
  "de-emphasize" or lower the importance of text emphasized by the
  <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element or marked as important with the
  <code><a href="#the-strong-element">strong</a></code> element. To mark text as not emphasized or
  important, simply do not mark it up with the <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> or
  <code><a href="#the-strong-element">strong</a></code> elements respectively.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code> element should not be used for extended
  spans of text, such as multiple paragraphs, lists, or sections of
  text. It is only intended for short runs of text. The text of a page
  listing terms of use, for instance, would not be a suitable
  candidate for the <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code> element: in such a case, the
  text is not a side comment, it is the main content of the page.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, the <code><a href="#the-small-element">small</a></code> element is used to
   indicate that value-added tax is not included in a price of a hotel

second quarter &lt;small&gt;(Full Disclosure: Foo News is a subsidiary of
Example Corp)&lt;/small&gt;, leading to speculation about a third quarter
merger with Demo Group.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>This is distinct from a sidebar, which might be multiple
   paragraphs long and is removed from the main flow of text. In the
   following example, we see a sidebar from the same article. This
   sidebar also has small print, indicating the source of the

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-cite-element">cite</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> the title
  of a work (e.g.
  a book,
  a paper,
  an essay,
  a poem,
  a score,
  a song,
  a script,
  a film,
  a TV show,
  a game,
  a sculpture,
  a painting,
  a theatre production,
  a play,
  an opera,
  a musical,
  an exhibition,
  a legal case report,
  etc). This can be a work that is being quoted or
  referenced in detail (i.e. a citation), or it can just be a work
  that is mentioned in passing.</p>

  <p>A person's name is not the title of a work — even if people
  call that person a piece of work — and the element must
  therefore not be used to mark up people's names. (In some cases, the
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element might be appropriate for names; e.g. in a
  gossip article where the names of famous people are keywords
  rendered with a different style to draw attention to them. In other
  cases, if an element is <em>really</em> needed, the
  <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> element can be used.)</p>

  <p>If an abbreviation is pluralized, the expansion's grammatical

  <p>Abbreviations do not have to be marked up using this element. It
  is expected to be useful in the following cases:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>Abbreviations for which the author wants to give expansions,
   where using the <code><a href="#the-abbr-element">abbr</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute is an alternative to
   including the expansion inline (e.g. in parentheses).</li>

   <li>Abbreviations that are likely to be unfamiliar to the
   document's readers, for which authors are encouraged to either mark
   up the abbreviation using an <code><a href="#the-abbr-element">abbr</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute or include the expansion
   inline in the text the first time the abbreviation is used.</li>

   <li>Abbreviations whose presence needs to be semantically
   annotated, e.g. so that they can be identified from a style sheet
   and given specific styles, for which the <code><a href="#the-abbr-element">abbr</a></code> element
   can be used without a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
   attribute.</li>

  </ul>

  <p title="note">Providing an expansion in a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute once will not necessarily
  cause other <code><a href="#the-abbr-element">abbr</a></code> elements in the same document with the
  same contents but without a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
  attribute to behave as if they had the same expansion. Every

    specifying a time zone offset, because geographic locations change time zone offsets with
    daylight savings time. In some cases, geographic locations even change time zone, e.g. when the
    boundaries of those time zones are redrawn, as happened with Samoa at the end of 2011. There

    series of meetings held at 1400 UTC every day, regardless of whether any particular part of the
    world is observing daylight savings time or not. For events where the precise time varies by the

   <p>The <code><a href="#the-time-element">time</a></code> element can be used to encode dates, for example in microformats. The

   <p>Here, a fictional microdata vocabulary based on the Atom vocabulary is used with the

   <p>A script loaded by the page (and thus privy to the page's internal convention of marking up

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-code-element">code</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a fragment
  of computer code. This could be an XML element name, a file name, a
  computer program, or any other string that a computer would
  recognize.</p>

  <p>There is no formal way to indicate the language of computer code being marked up. Authors who
  wish to mark <code><a href="#the-code-element">code</a></code> elements with the language used, e.g. so that syntax highlighting
  scripts can use the right rules, can use the <code title="attr-class"><a href="#classes">class</a></code> attribute, e.g.
  by adding a class prefixed with "<code title="">language-</code>" to the element.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following example shows how the element can be used in a
   paragraph to mark up element names and computer code, including
   punctuation.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;code&gt;code&lt;/code&gt; element represents a fragment of computer

the start of a statement block. It is paired with an &lt;code&gt;end&lt;/code&gt;
keyword, which is followed by the &lt;code&gt;.&lt;/code&gt; punctuation character
(full stop) to indicate the end of the program.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> user input
  (typically keyboard input, although it may also be used to represent
  other input, such as voice commands).</p>

  <p>When the <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element is nested inside a
  <code><a href="#the-samp-element">samp</a></code> element, it represents the input as it was echoed
  by the system.</p>

  <p>When the <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element <em>contains</em> a
  <code><a href="#the-samp-element">samp</a></code> element, it represents input based on system
  output, for example invoking a menu item.</p>

  <p>When the <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element is nested inside another
  <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element, it represents an actual key or other
  single unit of input as appropriate for the input mechanism.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>Here the <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element is used to indicate keys to press:</p>
   <pre>&lt;p&gt;To make George eat an apple, press &lt;kbd&gt;&lt;kbd&gt;Shift&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;F3&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>In this second example, the user is told to pick a particular
   menu item. The outer <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> element marks up a block of
   input, with the inner <code><a href="#the-kbd-element">kbd</a></code> elements representing each
   individual step of the input, and the <code><a href="#the-samp-element">samp</a></code> elements
   inside them indicating that the steps are input based on something
   being displayed by the system, in this case menu labels:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;To make George eat an apple, select
    &lt;kbd&gt;&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;samp&gt;File&lt;/samp&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;|&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;samp&gt;Eat Apple...&lt;/samp&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>Such precision isn't necessary; the following is equally fine:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;To make George eat an apple, select &lt;kbd&gt;File | Eat Apple...&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  superscript and the <code><a href="#the-sub-and-sup-elements">sub</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a>
  a subscript.</p>

  <p class="auth">These elements must be used only to mark up typographical
  conventions with specific meanings, not for typographical
  presentation for presentation's sake. For example, it would be
  inappropriate for the <code><a href="#the-sub-and-sup-elements">sub</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-sub-and-sup-elements">sup</a></code> elements
  to be used in the name of the LaTeX document preparation system. In
  general, authors should use these elements only if the
  <em>absence</em> of those elements would change the meaning of the

  <p>In certain languages, superscripts are part of the typographical

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-sub-and-sup-elements">sub</a></code> element can be used inside a

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here, the <code><a href="#the-sub-and-sup-elements">sub</a></code> element is used to represents the
   subscript that identifies the variable in a family of
   variables:</p>

(&lt;var&gt;x&lt;sub&gt;&lt;var&gt;i&lt;/var&gt;&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/var&gt;, &lt;var&gt;y&lt;sub&gt;&lt;var&gt;i&lt;/var&gt;&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/var&gt;).
For example, the 10th point has coordinate
(&lt;var&gt;x&lt;sub&gt;10&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/var&gt;, &lt;var&gt;y&lt;sub&gt;10&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/var&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a span of text in an alternate voice or
  mood, or otherwise offset from the normal prose in a manner indicating a different quality of
  text, such as a taxonomic designation, a technical term, an idiomatic phrase from another
  language, transliteration, a thought, or a ship name in Western texts.</p>

  <p>Terms in languages different from the main text should be
  annotated with <code title="attr-lang"><a href="#attr-lang">lang</a></code> attributes (or,
  in XML, <a href="#attr-xml-lang" title="attr-xml-lang"><code title="">lang</code>

  <p>Authors can use the <code title="attr-class"><a href="#classes">class</a></code>
  attribute on the <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element to identify why the element
  is being used, so that if the style of a particular use (e.g. dream
  sequences as opposed to taxonomic terms) is to be changed at a later
  date, the author doesn't have to go through the entire document (or
  series of related documents) annotating each use.</p>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to consider whether other elements might
  be more applicable than the <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element, for instance the
  <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element for marking up stress emphasis, or the
  <code><a href="#the-dfn-element">dfn</a></code> element to mark up the defining instance of a
  term.</p>

  <p class="note">Style sheets can be used to format <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>
  elements, just like any other element can be restyled. Thus, it is
  not the case that content in <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> elements will

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a span of text
  to which attention is being drawn for utilitarian purposes without
  conveying any extra importance and with no implication of an
  alternate voice or mood, such as key words in a document abstract,
  product names in a review, actionable words in interactive
  text-driven software, or an article lede.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>The following example shows a use of the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element
   to highlight key words without marking them up as important:</p>
   <pre>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;b&gt;frobonitor&lt;/b&gt; and &lt;b&gt;barbinator&lt;/b&gt; components are fried.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">
   <p>Another case where the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is appropriate is

  <p>As with the <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element, authors can use the <code title="attr-class"><a href="#classes">class</a></code> attribute on the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>
  element to identify why the element is being used, so that if the
  style of a particular use is to be changed at a later date, the
  author doesn't have to go through annotating each use.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element should be used as a last resort when
  no other element is more appropriate. In particular, headings should
  use the <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code> to <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h6</a></code> elements, stress emphasis
  should use the <code><a href="#the-em-element">em</a></code> element, importance should be denoted
  with the <code><a href="#the-strong-element">strong</a></code> element, and text marked or highlighted
  should use the <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> element.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>The following would be <em>incorrect</em> usage:</p>
   <pre class="bad">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;WARNING!&lt;/b&gt; Do not frob the barbinator!&lt;/p&gt;</pre>
   <p>In the previous example, the correct element to use would have

  <p class="note">Style sheets can be used to format <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>

  <p>In most cases, another element is likely to be more appropriate:

  used; for marking key words or phrases either the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>

  <!-- v2: attribute that means "highlight this on the scrollbar" -->

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a run of text in one document marked or
  highlighted for reference purposes, due to its relevance in another context. When used in a
  quotation or other block of text referred to from the prose, it indicates a highlight that was not
  originally present but which has been added to bring the reader's attention to a part of the text
  that might not have been considered important by the original author when the block was originally
  written, but which is now under previously unexpected scrutiny. When used in the main prose of a
  document, it indicates a part of the document that has been highlighted due to its likely
  relevance to the user's current activity.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>This example shows how the <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> element can be used
   to bring attention to a particular part of a quotation:</p>
   <pre>&lt;p lang="en-US"&gt;Consider the following quote:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote lang="en-GB"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Look around and you will find, no-one's really
 &lt;mark&gt;colour&lt;/mark&gt; blind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p lang="en-US"&gt;As we can tell from the &lt;em&gt;spelling&lt;/em&gt; of the word,
the person writing this quote is clearly not American.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>
   <p>(If the goal was to mark the element as misspelt, however, the
   <code><a href="#the-u-element">u</a></code> element, possibly with a class, would be more
   appropriate.)</p>
  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Another example of the <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> element is highlighting parts of a document that are
   matching some search string. If someone looked at a document, and the server knew that the user
   was searching for the word "kitten", then the server might return the document with one paragraph
   modified as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;I also have some &lt;mark&gt;kitten&lt;/mark&gt;s who are visiting me
these days. They're really cute. I think they like my garden! Maybe I
should adopt a &lt;mark&gt;kitten&lt;/mark&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following snippet, a paragraph of text refers to a specific part of a code
   fragment.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;The highlighted part below is where the error lies:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;var i: Integer;
begin
   i := &lt;mark&gt;1.1&lt;/mark&gt;;
end.&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;</pre>

   <p>This is separate from <em>syntax highlighting</em>, for which <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> is more
   appropriate. Combining both, one would get:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;The highlighted part below is where the error lies:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class=keyword&gt;var&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=ident&gt;i&lt;/span&gt;: &lt;span class=type&gt;Integer&lt;/span&gt;;

   &lt;span class=ident&gt;i&lt;/span&gt; := &lt;span class=literal&gt;&lt;mark&gt;1.1&lt;/mark&gt;&lt;/span&gt;;
&lt;span class=keyword&gt;end&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>This is another example showing the use of <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> to highlight a part of quoted
   text that was originally not emphasized. In this example, common typographic conventions have led
   the author to explicitly style <code><a href="#the-mark-element">mark</a></code> elements in quotes to render in italics.</p>

   <pre>&lt;article&gt;
 &lt;style scoped&gt;
  blockquote mark, q mark {
    font: inherit; font-style: italic;
    text-decoration: none;
    background: transparent; color: inherit;
  }
  .bubble em {
    font: inherit; font-size: larger;
    text-decoration: underline;
  }
 &lt;/style&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;She knew&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Did you notice the subtle joke in the joke on panel 4?&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p class="bubble"&gt;I didn't &lt;em&gt;want&lt;/em&gt; to believe. &lt;mark&gt;Of course
  on some level I realized it was a known-plaintext attack.&lt;/mark&gt; But I
  couldn't admit it until I saw for myself.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/blockquote&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;(Emphasis mine.) I thought that was great. It's so pedantic, yet it
 explains everything neatly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;mark&gt;A wormhole in normal conditions can be held open for a
maximum of just under 39 minutes.&lt;/mark&gt; Conditions that can increase
the time include a powerful energy source coupled to one or both of
the gates connecting the wormhole, and a large gravity well (such as a
black hole).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;mark&gt;Momentum is preserved across the wormhole. Electromagnetic
radiation can travel in both directions through a wormhole,
but matter cannot.&lt;/mark&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When a wormhole is created, a vortex normally forms.
&lt;strong&gt;Warning: The vortex caused by the wormhole opening will
annihilate anything in its path.&lt;/strong&gt; Vortexes can be avoided when
using sufficiently advanced dialing technology.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;mark&gt;An obstruction in a gate will prevent it from accepting a
wormhole connection.&lt;/mark&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element allows one or more spans of phrasing content to be marked with
  ruby annotations. Ruby annotations are short runs of text presented alongside base text, primarily
  used in East Asian typography as a guide for pronunciation or to include other annotations. In
  Japanese, this form of typography is also known as <i>furigana</i>.</p>

  <p>The content model of <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> elements consists of one or more of the following
  sequences:</p>

  <ol class="brief">
   <li>One or the other of the following:
    <ul class="brief">
     <li><a href="#phrasing-content-1">Phrasing content</a>, but with no <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> elements and with no <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element descendants

  </li></ol>

  <!-- ( ( phrasing-content | <ruby> ) ( <rt>+ | <rp> ( <rt> <rp> )+ ) )+ // with further ruby descendant restrictions -->

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code> elements can be used for a variety of kinds of
  annotations, including in particular (though by no means limited to) those described below. For
  more details on Japanese Ruby in particular, and how to render Ruby for Japanese, see
  <cite>Requirements for Japanese Text Layout</cite>. <a href="#refsJLREQ">[JLREQ]</a></p>

  <p class="note">At the time of writing, CSS does not yet provide a way to fully control the
  rendering of the HTML <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element. It is hoped that CSS will be extended to support
  the styles described below in due course.</p>

   <dt>Mono-ruby for individual base characters in Japanese

   </dt><dd>

    <p>One or more hiragana or katakana characters (the ruby
    annotation) are placed with each ideographic character (the base
    text). This is used to provide readings of kanji characters.

    </p><div class="example"> <!-- B as in BASE -->
     <pre>&lt;ruby&gt;B&lt;rt&gt;annotation&lt;/ruby&gt;</pre>
    </div>

    <div class="example">
     <p>In this example, notice how each annotation corresponds to a single base character.
     </p><pre>&lt;ruby&gt;君&lt;rt&gt;くん&lt;/ruby&gt;&lt;ruby&gt;子&lt;rt&gt;し&lt;/ruby&gt;は&lt;ruby&gt;和&lt;rt&gt;わ&lt;/ruby&gt;して&lt;ruby&gt;同&lt;rt&gt;どう&lt;/ruby&gt;ぜず。</pre>

     </p><p>This example can also be written as follows, using one <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element with two
     segments of base text and two annotations (one for each) rather than two back-to-back
     <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> elements each with one base text segment and annotation (as in the markup
     above):
     </p><pre>&lt;ruby&gt;君&lt;rt&gt;くん&lt;/rt&gt;子&lt;rt&gt;し&lt;/ruby&gt;は&lt;ruby&gt;和&lt;rt&gt;わ&lt;/ruby&gt;して&lt;ruby&gt;同&lt;rt&gt;どう&lt;/ruby&gt;ぜず。</pre>
    </div>

   </dd>


   <dt>Mono-ruby for compound words (jukugo)

   </dt><dd>

    <p>This is similar to the previous case: each ideographic character in the compound word (the
    base text) has its reading given in hiragana or katakana characters (the ruby annotation). The
    difference is that the base text segments form a compound word rather than being separate from
    each other.

    </p><div class="example"> <!-- B as in BASE -->
     <pre>&lt;ruby&gt;B&lt;rt&gt;annotation&lt;/rt&gt;B&lt;rt&gt;annotation&lt;/ruby&gt;</pre>
    </div>

    <div class="example">
     <p>In this example, notice again how each annotation corresponds to a single base character. In this example, each compound word (jukugo) corresponds to a single <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element.</p>
     <p>The rendering here is expected to be that each annotation be placed over (or next to, in vertical text) the corresponding base character, with the annotations not overhanging any of the adjacent characters.</p>
     <pre>&lt;ruby&gt;鬼&lt;rt&gt;き&lt;/rt&gt;門&lt;rt&gt;もん&lt;/rt&gt;&lt;/ruby&gt;の&lt;ruby&gt;方&lt;rt&gt;ほう&lt;/rt&gt;角&lt;rt&gt;がく&lt;/rt&gt;&lt;/ruby&gt;を&lt;ruby&gt;凝&lt;rt&gt;ぎょう&lt;/rt&gt;視&lt;rt&gt;し&lt;/rt&gt;&lt;/ruby&gt;する</pre>

    <p>This is semantically identical to the previous case (each individual ideographic character in

    characters), but the rendering is the more complicated Jukugo Ruby rendering.

    </p><div class="example">

    <p>The annotation describes the meaning of the base text, rather than (or in addition to) the

  <p>Within a <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element that does not have a <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element ancestor,
  content is segmented and segments are placed into three categories: base text segments, annotation
  segments, and ignored segments. Ignored segments do not form part of the document's semantics
  (they consist of some <a href="#inter-element-whitespace">inter-element whitespace</a> and <code><a href="#the-rp-element">rp</a></code> elements, the
  latter of which are used for legacy user agents that do not support ruby at all). Base text
  segments can overlap (with a limit of two segments overlapping any one position in the DOM, and
  with any segment having an earlier start point than an overlapping segment also having an equal or
  later end point, and any segment have a later end point than an overlapping segment also having an
  equal or earlier start point<!-- if anyone can find a better way of phrasing this parenthetical,
  do let me know! -->). Annotation segments correspond to <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code> elements. Each annotation
  segment can be associated with a base text segment, and each base text segment can have annotation
  segments associated with it. (In a conforming document, each base text segment is associated with
  at least one annotation segment, and each annotation segment is associated with one base text
  segment.) A <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> the union of the segments of base
  text it contains, along with the mapping from those base text segments to annotation segments.
  Segments are described in terms of DOM ranges; annotation segment ranges always consist of exactly
  one element. <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a></p>

  <p>At any particular time, the segmentation and categorisation of content of a <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>For the purposes of applying the bidirectional algorithm to the paragraph-level container that
  a <code><a href="#the-wbr-element">wbr</a></code> element finds itself within, the <code><a href="#the-wbr-element">wbr</a></code> element must be treated like
  a U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE (i.e. it has no effect).</p>

  <p>The requirements on handling the <code><a href="#the-wbr-element">wbr</a></code> element for the bidirectional algorithm may
  be implemented indirectly through the style layer, e.g. by implementing the suggestions in the <a href="#rendering">rendering</a> section.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, someone is quoted as saying something
   which, for effect, is written as one long word. However, to ensure

  <h4 id="edits-and-paragraphs"><span class="secno">4.7.4 </span>Edits and paragraphs</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Since the <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements do not
  affect <a href="#paragraph" title="paragraph">paragraphing</a>, it is possible,
  in some cases where paragraphs are <a href="#paragraph" title="paragraph">implied</a> (without explicit <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>
  elements), for an <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> element to
  span both an entire paragraph or other non-<a href="#phrasing-content-1">phrasing
  content</a> elements and part of another paragraph. For
  example:</p>

  <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;ins&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;
   This is a paragraph that was inserted.
  &lt;/p&gt;
  This is another paragraph whose first sentence was inserted
  at the same time as the paragraph above.
 &lt;/ins&gt;
 This is a second sentence, which was there all along.
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  <p>By only wrapping some paragraphs in <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements, one
  can even get the end of one paragraph, a whole second paragraph,
  and the start of a third paragraph to be covered by the same
  <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> element (though this is very
  confusing, and not considered good practice):</p>

  <pre class="bad">&lt;section&gt;
 This is the first paragraph. &lt;ins&gt;This sentence was
 inserted.
 &lt;p&gt;This second paragraph was inserted.&lt;/p&gt;
 This sentence was inserted too.&lt;/ins&gt; This is the
 third paragraph in this example.
 &lt;!-- (don't do this) --&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  <p>However, due to the way <a href="#paragraph" title="paragraph">implied
  paragraphs</a> are defined, it is not possible to mark up the
  end of one paragraph and the start of the very next one using the
  same <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> element. You instead have
  to use one (or two) <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element(s) and two
  <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements, as for example:</p>

  <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;This is the first paragraph. &lt;del&gt;This sentence was

  <p>The content models of the <code><a href="#the-ol-element">ol</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code>
  elements do not allow <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements

  that would otherwise have been marked as deleted.</p>

  <p>To indicate that an item is inserted or deleted, an
  <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> element can be wrapped around
  the contents of the <code><a href="#the-li-element">li</a></code> element. To indicate that an
  item has been replaced by another, a single <code><a href="#the-li-element">li</a></code> element
  can have one or more <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements followed by one or
  more <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> elements.</p>

   <p>In the following example, a list that started empty had items

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The elements that form part of the table model have complicated
  content model requirements that do not allow for the
  <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements, so indicating edits
  to a table can be difficult.</p>

  <p>To indicate that an entire row or an entire column has been added
  or removed, the entire contents of each cell in that row or column
  can be wrapped in <code><a href="#the-ins-element">ins</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-del-element">del</a></code> elements
  (respectively).</p>

  <p>Generally speaking, there is no good way to indicate more
  complicated edits (e.g. that a cell was removed, moving all
  subsequent cells up or to the left).</p>

  <p>An <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element represents an image.</p>

  <!-- v2 ideas for <img>:

     * Maps sites would like to know which images are already cached,
       so that they can use images that are vaguely suitable while
       they wait for the most appropriate image to download.

       Almost like lowsrc="", except that many images might be
       appropriate.

       Slight hitch: their images are at a different origin, and we
       don't want to allow arbitrary cross-origin inspection (privacy
       leak risk). So it will require them to do CORS opt-in.

     * See note at rel=noreferrer.

  <p>The image given by the <dfn id="attr-img-src" title="attr-img-src"><code>src</code></dfn>

  the <dfn id="attr-img-alt" title="attr-img-alt"><code>alt</code></dfn> attribute provides equivalent content for
  those who cannot process images or who have image loading disabled<!--

  <p>The requirements on the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute's value are described
  <a href="#alt">in the next section</a>.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-img-src"><a href="#attr-img-src">src</a></code> attribute must be present, and must contain a
  <a href="#valid-non-empty-url-potentially-surrounded-by-spaces">valid non-empty URL potentially surrounded by spaces</a> referencing a non-interactive,
  optionally animated, image resource that is neither paged nor scripted.</p>



  <p class="note">The requirements above imply that images can be static bitmaps (e.g. PNGs, GIFs,
  JPEGs), single-page vector documents (single-page PDFs, XML files with an SVG root element),
  animated bitmaps (APNGs, animated GIFs), animated vector graphics (XML files with an SVG root
  element that use declarative SMIL animation), and so forth. However, these definitions preclude

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-img-crossorigin" title="attr-img-crossorigin"><code>crossorigin</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#cors-settings-attribute">CORS

  <p>In a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> where <a href="#concept-bc-noscript" title="concept-bc-noscript">scripting is

  context</a> where <a href="#concept-bc-noscript" title="concept-bc-noscript">scripting is enabled</a>, user agents
  must obtain images immediately.</p>

  <p>A user agent that obtains images immediately must synchronously <a href="#update-the-image-data">update the image
  data</a> of an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element whenever that element is created with a <code title="attr-img-src"><a href="#attr-img-src">src</a></code> attribute.

  <a href="#update-the-image-data">update the image data</a> of an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element whenever that element has its
  <code title="attr-img-src"><a href="#attr-img-src">src</a></code> or <code title="attr-img-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-img-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> attribute set, changed, or removed.</p> <!-- Note

  <p>A user agent that obtains images on demand must <a href="#update-the-image-data">update the image data</a> of an
  <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element whenever it needs the image data (i.e. on demand), but only if the

  <p>Each <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element has a <dfn id="last-selected-source">last selected source</dfn>, which must initially be
  null, and a <dfn id="current-pixel-density">current pixel density</dfn>, which must initially be undefined.</p>

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element has a <a href="#current-pixel-density">current pixel density</a> that is not 1.0, the
  element's image data must be treated as if its resolution, in device pixels per CSS pixels, was
  the <a href="#current-pixel-density">current pixel density</a>.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if the <a href="#current-pixel-density">current pixel density</a> is 3.125, that means

  intrinsic dimension of 96 CSS pixels by 192 CSS pixels.</p>

  <p>Each <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object must have a <dfn id="list-of-available-images">list of available images</dfn>. Each image
  in this list is identified by a tuple consisting of an <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a>, a <a href="#cors-settings-attribute">CORS

  other <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s), but must not change the keys of entries copied in this way when
  doing so. User agents may also remove images from such lists at any time (e.g. to save
  memory).</p>

  <p>When the user agent is to <dfn id="update-the-image-data">update the image data</dfn> of an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element, it

   <li><p>If the user agent cannot support images, or its support for images has been disabled, then
   abort these steps.</p></li>

   <li>



    Otherwise, if the element has a <code title="attr-img-src"><a href="#attr-img-src">src</a></code> attribute specified and
    its value is not the empty string, let <var title="">selected source</var> be the value of the

  <p class="note">This allows servers to return images with error responses, and have them

  <p>The user agent should apply the <a href="#content-type-sniffing:-image" title="Content-Type sniffing: image">image sniffing

  <p>User agents must not support non-image resources with the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element (e.g. XML

 <p><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#text-altdef">Text alternatives</a>, <a href="#refsWCAG">[WCAG]</a> 
 are a primary way of making visual information accessible, because they can be rendered through any 
 sensory modality (for example, visual, auditory or tactile) to match the needs of the user. Providing text alternatives allows 
 the information to be rendered in a variety of ways by a variety of user agents. For example, a person who cannot see a picture 
 can have the text alternative read aloud using synthesized speech.</p>
 
 <p class="note">The <code>alt</code> attribute on images is a very important accessibility attribute 
 (it is supported by all browsers, most authoring tools and is the most well known accessibility

 to view images on a page to comprehend and make use of that page as much as those who can.</p>

  <p>Except where otherwise specified, the <code>alt</code> attribute must be specified and its value must not be empty; 
  the value must be an appropriate functional replacement for the image. The specific requirements for the <code>alt</code> attribute content
  depend on the image's function in the page, as described in the following sections.</p>
  
  <p>To determine an appropriate text alternative it is important to think about why an image is being included in a page. 
  What is its purpose? Thinking like this will help you to understand what is important about the image for the 
  intended audience. Every image has a reason for being on a page, because it provides useful information, performs a 
  function, labels an interactive element, enhances aesthetics or is purely decorative. Therefore, knowing what the image 
  is for, makes writing an appropriate text alternative easier.</p>
  
  <h6 id="a-link-or-button-containing-nothing-but-an-image"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.3 </span>A link or button containing nothing but an image</h6>

 but contains one or more images, include text in the <code>alt</code> attribute(s) that together convey the purpose of the link or button.</p>

  <p>Users can benefit when content is presented in graphical form, for example as a 
  flowchart, a diagram, a graph, or a map showing directions. Users also benefit when 
  content presented in a graphical form is also provided in a textual format, these users include 
  those who are unable to view the image (e.g. because they have a very slow connection, 
  or because they are using a text-only browser, or because they are listening to the page 
  being read out by a hands-free automobile voice Web browser, or because they have a 
  visual impairment and use an assistive technology to render the text to speech).</p>

  <div class="example">
  <p>In the following example we have an image of a pie chart, with text in the <code>alt</code> attribute 
  representing the data shown in the pie chart:</p>
  <p><img alt="Browser Share: Internet Explorer 25%, Firefox 40%, Chrome 25%, Safari 6% and Opera 4%." height="299" src="images/browserShare.png" width="380"></p>

   <p>In the case where an image repeats the previous paragraph in graphical form. The <code>alt</code> attribute content labels the image.</p>

   <pre> &lt;p&gt;According to a recent study Firefox has a 40% browser share, Internet Explorer has 25%, Chrome has 25%, Safari has 6% and Opera has 4%.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="piechart.gif" <strong>alt="Pie chart representing the data in the previous paragraph."</strong>&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>
  <p>It can bee seen that when the image is not available, for example because the <code>src</code> attribute value is incorrect, the text alternative provides the user with a brief description of the image content:</p>
   <p><img alt="Representation of the code snippet above." src="images/brokenimg.png"></p>
  </div>
  
  <p class="note">In cases where the text alternative is lengthy, more than a sentence or two, or would benefit from 
 the use of structured markup, provide a brief description or label using the <code>alt</code> 
 attribute, and an associated text alternative.
  
  </p><div class="example">
  <p>Here's an example of a flowchart image, with a short text alternative 
  included in the <code>alt</code> attribute, in this case the text alternative is a description of the link target

  process represented in the flowchart.</p>

  <div class="example">
  <p>In this example, there is an image of a chart. It would be inappropriate to provide the information depicted in
  the chart as a plain text alternative in an <code>alt</code> attribute as the information is a data set. Instead a 
  structured text alternative is provided below the image in the form of a data table using the data that is represented 
  in the chart image.</p>

  <h6 id="images-of-text"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.5 </span>Images of text</h6>

  <p>Sometimes, an image only contains  text, and the purpose of the image 
  is to display text  using visual effects and /or fonts.  It is <em>strongly</em> 
  recommended that text styled using CSS be used, but if this is not possible, provide 
  the same text in the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute as is in the image.</p>

  <div class="example">

  <p>This example shows an image of the text "Get Happy!" written in a fancy multi colored freehand style.
   The image makes up the content of a heading. In this case the text alternative for the image is "Get Happy!".</p>

   <p><img alt="Get Happy!" height="77" src="images/text.png" width="275"></p>

<pre>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;img src="gethappy.gif" <strong>alt="Get Happy!"</strong>&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;</pre>
      </div>
    <div class="example">  
    <p>In this example we have an advertising image consisting of text, the phrase "The BIG sale" is 
     repeated 3 times, each time the text gets smaller and fainter, the last line reads "...ends Friday" 
     In the context of use, as an advertisement, it is recommended that the image's text alternative only include the text "The BIG sale" 
     once as the repetition is for visual effect and the repetition of the text for users who cannot view 
     the image is unnecessary and could be confusing.</p>

        <p><img alt="The big sale ...ends Friday." height="190" src="images/sale.png" width="400"></p>
    <pre>    &lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="sale.gif" <strong>alt="The BIG sale ...ends Friday."</strong>&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
    </pre>
   <p class="note">In situations where there is also a photo or other graphic along with the image of text, 
    ensure that the words in the image text are included in the text alternative, along with any other description 
    of the image that conveys meaning to users who can view the image, so the information is also 
    available to users who cannot view the image.</p>
    </div>
<h6 id="images-that-include-text"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.6 </span>Images that include text</h6>
  <p>Sometimes, an image consists of a graphics such as a chart and associated text. 
  In this case it is recommended that the text in the image is included in the text alternative.</p>
<div class="example">
  <p>Consider an image containing  a pie chart and associated text. It is recommended wherever 
  possible to provide any associated text as text, not an image of text. 
  If this is not possible include the text in the text alternative along with the pertinent information
  conveyed in the image.</p>

  Pie chart: Language=68%, Education=14% and Science=18%."</strong>&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>
  </div>

  <div class="example">
  <p>Here's another example of the same <a href="#piechart">pie chart</a> image, 
  showing a short text alternative included in the <code>alt</code> attribute 
  and a longer text alternative in text. The <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> 
  elements are used to associate the longer text alternative with the image. The <code>alt</code> attribute is used
  to label the image.</p>

  <pre>  &lt;figure&gt;
  &lt;img src="figure1.gif" <strong>alt="Figure 1"</strong>&gt;
  &lt;figcaption&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Figure 1.&lt;/strong&gt; Distribution of Articles by Journal Category. 
  Pie chart: Language=68%, Education=14% and Science=18%.&lt;/figcaption&gt;
  &lt;/figure&gt;

  <p class="note">The advantage of this method over the previous example is that the text alternative 
  is available to all users at all times. It also allows structured mark up to be used in the text 
  alternative, where as a text alternative provided using the <code>alt</code> attribute does not.</p>

  <p>An image that isn't discussed directly by the surrounding text but still has 
  some relevance can be included in a page using the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element. Such images 
  are more than mere decoration, they may augment the themes or subject matter of the page 
  content and so still form part of the content. In these cases, it is recommeneded that a 
  text alternative be provided. </p>

  <p>Here is an example of an image closely related to the subject matter of the page content 
  but not directly discussed. An image of a painting inspired by a poem, on a page reciting that poem. 
  The following snippet shows an example. The image is a painting titled the "Lady of Shallot", it is 
  inspired by the poem and its subject matter is derived from the poem. Therefore it is strongly 
  recommended that a text alternative is provided. There is a short description of the content of 
  the image in the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute and 
  a link below the image to a longer description located at the bottom of the document. At the end

  <p>Purely decorative images are visual enhancements, decorations or embellishments that provide no

  <p>Mark up purely decorative images so they can be ignored by assistive technology by using an empty <code>alt</code>

  <p class="note">Generally, <a href="#image-map" title="image map">image maps</a> should be
  used instead of slicing an image for links.</p>

  <p>Sometimes, when you create a composite picture from multiple images, you may wish to 
  link one or more of the images. Provide an <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute 
  for each linked image to describe the purpose of the link.
  </p>
  <div class="example">
  In the following example, a composite picture is used to represent a "crocoduck"; a fictional creature which 
  defies evolutionary principles by being part crocodile and part duck. You are asked to interact with the 
  crocoduck, but you need to exercise caution...

    <p><img alt="crocodile's angry, chomping head" src="images/crocoduck1.png"><img alt="duck's soft, feathery body" src="images/crocoduck2.png"></p>
  <pre>  &lt;h1&gt;The crocoduck&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;You encounter a strange creature called a "crocoduck". 
  The creature seems angry! Perhaps some friendly stroking will help to calm 
  it, but be careful not to stroke any crocodile parts. This would just enrage 
  the beast further.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;a href="?stroke=head"&gt;&lt;img src="crocoduck1.png" <strong>alt="Stroke crocodile's angry, chomping head"</strong>&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

  <p>Images of pictures or graphics include visual representations of objects, people, scenes, abstractions, etc.  
  This <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#non-text-contentdef">non-text content</a>, <a href="#refsWCAG">[WCAG]</a> can convey a significant amount of

  a sighted person. Examples include photographs, paintings, drawings and artwork.</p>
  
  <p>An appropriate text alternative for a picture is a brief description, or <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#namedef">name</a> <a href="#refsWCAG">[WCAG]</a>. As in all text alternative authoring decisions, writing suitable text alternatives for pictures requires 
  human judgment. The text value is subjective to the context where the image is used and the page author's writing style. Therefore, 
  there is no single 'right' or 'correct' piece of <code>alt</code> text for any particular image. In  addition to providing a short text 
  alternative that gives a brief description of the non-text content, also providing supplemental content through another means when 
  appropriate may be useful.</p>
  
  <div class="example">
  <p>This first example shows an image uploaded to a photo-sharing site. The photo is of a cat, sitting in the bath. The image has a 
  text alternative provided using the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element's <code>alt</code> attribute. It also has a caption provided by including 
  the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element in a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element and using a <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element to identify the caption text.</p>

  <p>This example is of an image that defies a complete description, as the subject of the image is open to interpretation.

   <h6 id="webcam-images"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.13 </span>Webcam images</h6>
   <p>Webcam images are static images that are automatically updated periodically. Typically the images are 
   from a fixed viewpoint, the images may update on the page automatically as each new image is uploaded from 
   the camera or the user may be required to refresh the page to view an updated image. Examples include traffic 
   and weather cameras.</p>
   
   <div class="example">
    <p>This example is fairly typical; the title and a time stamp are included in the image, automatically generated 
    by the webcam software. It would be better if the text information was not included in the image, but as it is part 
   of the image, include it part of the text alternative. A caption is also provided using the <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> 
   and <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> elements.  As the image is provided to give a visual indication of the current weather near a building,
   a link to a local weather forecast is provided, as with automatically generated and uploaded webcam images it may be impractical to 
   provide such information as a text alternative. </p>
   
   <p>The text of the <code>alt</code> attribute includes a prose version of the timestamp, designed to make the text more 
   understandable when announced by text to speech software.  The text alternative also includes a description of some aspects 
   of what can be seen in the image which are unchanging, although weather conditions and time of day change.</p>

  <h6 id="when-a-text-alternative-is-not-available-at-the-time-of-publication"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.14 </span>When a text alternative is not available at the time of publication</h6>
  <p>In some cases an image is included in a published document, but the author is unable to provide an appropriate text alternative. 
  In such cases the minimum requirement is to provide a caption for the image using the <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> 
  elements under the following conditions:</p>

  <ul id="figcaption-as-alt-condition">
  <li>The <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element is in a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element
  </li><li>The <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element contains a <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element
  </li><li>The <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element contains content other than inter-element whitespace
  </li><li>Ignoring the <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element and its descendants, the <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> 
  element has no <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node descendants other than inter-element whitespace, and no 
  embedded content descendant other than the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element.
  </li></ul>

  <p class="note">In other words, the only content of the <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> is an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element and a <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> 
  element, and the <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element must include (caption) content.</p>
  <p class="note">Such cases are to be kept to an absolute
    minimum. If there is even the slightest possibility of the author
    having the ability to provide real alternative text, then it would
    not be acceptable to omit the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code>
    attribute.</p>
  
  <div class="example">
  <p>In this example, a person uploads a photo, as part of a bulk upoad of many images, to a photo sharing site. The user has not
  provided a text alternative or a caption for the image. The site's authoring tool inserts a caption automatically using whatever useful
  information it has for the image. In this case it's the file name and date the photo was taken.</p> 
  
  <p><img alt="no text alternative provided" height="258" src="images/clara.png" width="300"></p>

  &lt;/figure&gt;
  </pre>
  <p>Notice that even in this example, as much useful information
    as possible is still included in the <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> element.</p>
</div>

<div class="example">
  <p>In this second example, a person uploads a photo to a photo sharing site. She has provided
  a caption for the image but not a text alternative. This may be because the site does not provide users with the ability
  to add a text alternative in the <code>alt</code> attribute.</p> 
  
  <p><img alt="no text alternative provided" height="250" src="images/elo.png" width="205"></p>
  <p><strong>Eloisa with Princess Belle</strong></p>

</div>

<div class="example">

     <p>Sometimes the entire point of the image is that a textual
     description is not available, and the user is to provide the
     description. For example, software that displays images and
     asks for alternative text precisely for the purpose of then
     writing a page with correct alternative text. Such a page could
     have a table of images, like this:</p>

     <pre>&lt;table&gt;
   &lt;tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt; Image &lt;th&gt; Description&lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;

   &lt;img src="2421.png"&gt;
   &lt;figcaption&gt;Image 640 by 100, filename 'banner.gif'&lt;/figcaption&gt;
   &lt;/figure&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; &lt;input name="alt2421"&gt;
   &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; &lt;figure&gt;
   &lt;img src="2422.png"&gt;
   &lt;figcaption&gt;Image 200 by 480, filename 'ad3.gif'&lt;/figcaption&gt;
   &lt;/figure&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; &lt;input name="alt2422"&gt;
   &lt;/table&gt;</pre>

   

    </div>
  <p class="note">Since some users cannot use images at all (e.g. because they are blind) the 
  <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute is only allowed to be omitted when no text

  <p>If an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element is being used for purposes other
  than showing an image, e.g. as part of a service to count page

  <h6 id="icon-images"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.16 </span>Icon Images</h6>
  <p>An icon is usually a simple picture representing a program, action, data file or a concept. 
  Icons are intended to help users of visual browsers to recognize features at a glance.</p>

  <p>Use an empty <a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a> attribute when an icon is supplemental to  
  text conveying the same meaning.</p>

 <div class="example">
 <p>In this example, we have a link pointing to a site's home page, the link contains a 
 house icon image and the text "home". The image has an empty <code>alt</code> text. 
 Where images are used in this way, it would also appropriate to add the image using CSS</p>
        
  <p><img alt="A house icon next to the word 'home'." height="38" src="images/home.png" width="100"></p>

  { 
  content: url(home.png);
  }

  &lt;a href="home.html" id="home"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;
  </pre>
 </div>

 <div class="example">
 <p>In this example, there is a warning message, with a warning icon. The word "Warning!" is in emphasized 
 text next to the icon. As the information conveyed by the icon is redundant the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element is given an an empty <code>alt</code> attribute.</p>

 <p><img alt="Warning!" height="34" src="images/warning.png" width="38"> <strong>Warning!</strong> Your session is about to expire.</p>

  <p>Many pages include logos, insignia, flags, or emblems, which stand for a company, organization, project,

  like all images, the context in which the image is being used and what function it serves in the given context.</p>
  
  <p>If a logo is the sole content of a link, provide a brief description of the link target in the <code>alt</code> attribute.</p>

  <p>If a logo is being used to represent the entity, e.g. as a page heading, provide the name of the 
  entity being represented by the logo as the text alternative.</p>
  <div class="example">

  <h6 id="captcha-images"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.18 </span>CAPTCHA Images</h6>
  <p>CAPTCHA stands for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart".
  CAPTCHA images are used for security purposes to confirm that content is being accessed by a person
  rather than a computer. This authentication is done through visual verification of an image. CAPTCHA 
  typically presents an image with characters or words in it that the user is to re-type. The image is 
  usually distorted and has some noise applied to it to make the characters difficult to read.</p>
  
  <p>To improve the accessibility of CAPTCHA provide text alternatives that identify and describe the purpose of the image, and provide alternative 
  forms of the CAPTCHA using output modes for different types of sensory perception. For instance provide 
  an audio alternative along with the visual image. Place the audio option right next to the visual one. 
  This helps but is still problematic for people without sound cards, the deaf-blind, and some people with limited hearing. 
  Another method is to include a form that asks a question along with the visual image. This helps but can be 
  problematic for people with cognitive impairments.</p>
  <p class="note">It is strongly recommended that alternatives to CAPTCHA be used, as all forms of CAPTCHA introduce 
  unacceptable barriers to entry for users with disabilities. Further information is available in 
  <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/turingtest/">Inaccessibility of CAPTCHA</a>.</p>

  <h6 id="guidance-for-markup-generators"><span class="secno">4.8.1.1.19 </span>Guidance for markup generators</h6>

  <p>Markup generators (such as WYSIWYG authoring tools) should,
  wherever possible, obtain a text alternative from their
  users. However, it is recognized that in many cases, this will not
  be possible.</p>

  <p>For images that are the sole contents of links, markup generators
  should examine the link target to determine the title of the target,
  or the URL of the target, and use information obtained in this
  manner as the text alternative.</p>

  <!--FORK--><!-- WHATWG recommend use of @title -->
  <p>For images that have captions, markup generators should use the
  <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> elements to provide the
  image's caption.</p>

  <p>As a last resort, implementors should either set the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute to the empty string, under
  the assumption that the image is a purely decorative image that
  doesn't add any information but is still specific to the surrounding
  content, or omit the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute
  altogether, under the assumption that the image is a key part of the
  content.</p>

  <p>Markup generators may specify a <dfn id="attr-img-generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt" title="attr-img-generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt"><code>generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt</code></dfn>
  attribute on <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> elements for which they have been
  unable to obtain a text alternative and for which they have therefore
  omitted the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute. The
  value of this attribute must be the empty string. Documents
  containing such attributes are not conforming, but conformance
  checkers will <a href="#guidance-for-conformance-checkers">silently
  ignore</a> this error.</p>

  <p class="note">This is intended to avoid markup generators from
  being pressured into replacing the error of omitting the <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute with the even more
  egregious error of providing phony text alternatives, because
  state-of-the-art automated conformance checkers cannot distinguish
  phony text alternatives from correct text alternatives.</p>

  <p>Markup generators should generally avoid using the image's own
  file name as the text alternative. Similarly, markup generators
  should avoid generating text alternatives from any content that will
  be equally available to presentation user agents (e.g. Web
  browsers).</p>

  <p class="note">This is because once a page is generated, it will
  typically not be updated, whereas the browsers that later read the
  page can be updated by the user, therefore the browser is likely to
  have more up-to-date and finely-tuned heuristics than the markup
  generator did when generating the page.</p>

   attribute whose value is the empty string. A conformance checker
   that is not reporting the lack of an <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute as an error must also not

   the document is conforming, only that the generator could not
   determine appropriate alternative text — validators are not
   required to show an error in this case, because such an error might
   encourage markup generators to include bogus alternative text
   purely in an attempt to silence validators. Naturally, conformance
   checkers <em>may</em> report the lack of an <code title="attr-img-alt"><a href="#attr-img-alt">alt</a></code> attribute as an error even in the
   presence of the <code title="attr-img-generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt"><a href="#attr-img-generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt">generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt</a></code>
   attribute; for example, there could be a user option to report
   <em>all</em> conformance errors even those that might be the more
   or less inevitable result of using a markup generator.)</p></li>

 &lt;h1&gt;I got my own magazine!&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;After much effort, I've finally found a publisher, and so now I
 have my own magazine! Isn't that awesome?! The first issue will come
 out in September, and we have articles about getting food, and about
 getting in boxes, it's going to be great!&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;footer&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Written by &lt;a href="/users/cap"&gt;cap&lt;/a&gt;, 1 hour ago.
 &lt;/footer&gt;
 &lt;article&gt;
  &lt;footer&gt; Thirteen minutes ago, &lt;a href="/users/ch"&gt;ch&lt;/a&gt; wrote: &lt;/footer&gt;
  &lt;iframe seamless sandbox srcdoc="&lt;p&gt;did you get a cover picture yet?"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
 &lt;/article&gt;

  &lt;footer&gt; Nine minutes ago, &lt;a href="/users/cap"&gt;cap&lt;/a&gt; wrote: &lt;/footer&gt;
  &lt;iframe seamless sandbox srcdoc="&lt;p&gt;Yeah, you can see it &lt;a href=&amp;quot;/gallery?mode=cover&amp;amp;amp;page=1&amp;quot;&gt;in my gallery&lt;/a&gt;."&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;

&lt;p&gt;you should get earl&amp;amp;amp;me on the next cover."&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
 &lt;/article&gt;</pre>

   <p>Notice the way that quotes have to be escaped (otherwise the <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc"><a href="#attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</a></code> attribute would end prematurely), and the way raw
   ampersands (e.g. in URLs or in prose) mentioned in the sandboxed content have to be
   <em>doubly</em> escaped — once so that the ampersand is preserved when originally parsing
   the <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc"><a href="#attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</a></code> attribute, and once more to prevent the
   ampersand from being misinterpreted when parsing the sandboxed content.</p>

   <p>Furthermore, notice that since the <a href="#syntax-doctype" title="syntax-doctype">DOCTYPE</a> is optional in
   <a href="#an-iframe-srcdoc-document" title="an iframe srcdoc document"><code>iframe</code> <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</code> documents</a>, and the <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>,
   <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> elements have <a href="#syntax-tag-omission">optional
   start and tags</a>, and the <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code> element is also optional in <a href="#an-iframe-srcdoc-document" title="an iframe
   srcdoc document"><code>iframe</code> <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</code>
   documents</a>, the markup in a <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc"><a href="#attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</a></code> attribute can be
   relatively succint despite representing an entire document, since only the contents of the
   <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element need appear literally in the syntax. The other elements are still
   present, but only by implication.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">In <a href="#syntax">the HTML syntax</a>, authors need only remember to use """ (U+0022) characters to wrap the attribute contents and then to escape all """ (U+0022) and U+0026 AMPERSAND (&amp;) characters, and to specify the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox">sandbox</a></code> attribute, to ensure safe embedding of content.</p>

  <p class="note">Due to restrictions of <a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML syntax</a>, in XML the "&lt;" (U+003C) character needs to be escaped as well. In order to prevent <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#AVNormalize">attribute-value normalization</a>, some of XML's
  whitespace characters — specifically "tab" (U+0009), "LF" (U+000A), and "CR" (U+000D) — also need to be escaped. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></p>

  <p class="note">If the <code title="attr-iframe-src"><a href="#attr-iframe-src">src</a></code> attribute and the <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc"><a href="#attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</a></code> attribute are both specified together, the <code title="attr-iframe-srcdoc"><a href="#attr-iframe-srcdoc">srcdoc</a></code> attribute takes priority. This allows authors to provide

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, some completely-unknown, potentially hostile, user-provided HTML content is
   embedded in a page. Because it is served from a separate domain, it is affected by all the normal
   cross-site restrictions. In addition, the embedded page has scripting disabled, plugins disabled,
   forms disabled, and it cannot navigate any frames or windows other than itself (or any frames or
   windows it itself embeds).</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;We're not scared of you! Here is your content, unedited:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;iframe sandbox src="http://usercontent.example.net/getusercontent.cgi?id=12193"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>

   <p class="warning">It is important to use a separate domain so that if the attacker convinces the
   user to visit that page directly, the page doesn't run in the context of the site's origin, which
   would make the user vulnerable to any attack found in the page.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, a gadget from another site is embedded. The gadget has scripting and forms
   enabled, and the origin sandbox restrictions are lifted, allowing the gadget to communicate with
   its originating server. The sandbox is still useful, however, as it disables plugins and popups,
   thus reducing the risk of the user being exposed to malware and other annoyances.</p>

   <pre>&lt;iframe sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-forms allow-scripts"
        src="http://maps.example.com/embedded.html"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Suppose a file A contained the following fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;iframe sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-forms" src=B&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>

   <p>Suppose that file B contained an iframe also:</p>

   <pre>&lt;iframe sandbox="allow-scripts" src=C&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>

   <p>Further, suppose that file C contained a link:</p>

   <pre>&lt;a href=D&gt;Link&lt;/a&gt;</pre>

   <p>For this example, suppose all the files were served as <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code>.</p>

   <p>Page C in this scenario has all the sandboxing flags set. Scripts are disabled, because the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in A has scripts disabled, and this overrides the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-scripts"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-scripts">allow-scripts</a></code> keyword set on the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in B. Forms are also disabled, because the inner <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> (in B)
   does not have the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-forms"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-forms">allow-forms</a></code> keyword
   set.</p>

   <p>Suppose now that a script in A removes all the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox">sandbox</a></code> attributes in A <!--grammar-check-override--> and B.
   This would change nothing immediately. If the user clicked the link in C, loading page D into the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in B, page D would now act as if the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in B had the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-same-origin"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-same-origin">allow-same-origin</a></code> and <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-forms"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox-allow-forms">allow-forms</a></code> keywords set, because that was the
   state of the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> in the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in A when page B was
   loaded.</p>

   <p>Generally speaking, dynamically removing or changing the <code title="attr-iframe-sandbox"><a href="#attr-iframe-sandbox">sandbox</a></code> attribute is ill-advised, because it can make it quite
   hard to reason about what will be allowed and what will not.</p>

    </li></ul>

   </li>

  </ul>

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element is <a href="#in-seamless-mode">in seamless mode</a>, the following

  <ul>

   <li><p>The user agent must set the <dfn id="seamless-browsing-context-flag">seamless browsing context flag</dfn> to true for that

   parent browsing context</a> unless an <a href="#explicit-self-navigation-override">explicit self-navigation override</a> is used
   (<code title="">target="_self"</code>).</p></li>

   <li><p>Media queries in the context of the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>'s <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>
   (e.g. on <code title="attr-style-media"><a href="#attr-style-media">media</a></code> attributes of <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> elements in
   <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s in that <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>) must be evaluated with respect to the nearest

   mode</a>. <a href="#refsMQ">[MQ]</a></p></li>

   <li><p>In a CSS-supporting user agent: the user agent must add all the style sheets that apply to
   the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element to the cascade of the <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element's <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>, at the appropriate cascade
   levels, before any style sheets specified by the document itself.</p></li>

   <li><p>In a CSS-supporting user agent: the user agent must, for the purpose of CSS property
   inheritance only, treat the root element of the <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element's <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> as being a child of the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element. (Thus inherited properties on the root element of the document in
   the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> will inherit the computed values of those properties on the
   <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element instead of taking their initial values.)</p></li>

   <li><p>In visual media, in a CSS-supporting user agent: the user agent should set the intrinsic
   width of the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> to the width that the element would have if it was a
   non-replaced block-level element with 'width: auto', unless that width would be zero (e.g. if the
   element is floating or absolutely positioned), in which case the user agent should set the
   intrinsic width of the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> to the shrink-to-fit width of the root element (if
   any) of the content rendered in the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>.</p></li>

   <li><p>In visual media, in a CSS-supporting user agent: the user agent should set the intrinsic
   height of the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> to the shortest height that would make the content rendered in
   the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> at its current width (as given in the previous bullet point) have no
   scrollable overflow at its bottom edge<!--, if the scrolling position was such that the top of
   the viewport for the content rendered in the <code>iframe</code> was aligned with the origin of
   that content's canvas-->. Scrollable overflow is any overflow that would increase the range to
   which a scrollbar or other scrolling mechanism can scroll.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>In visual media, in a CSS-supporting user agent: the user agent must force the height of the
    initial containing block of the <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing
    context</a> of the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> to zero.</p>

    <p class="note">This is intended to get around the otherwise circular dependency of percentage
    dimensions that depend on the height of the containing block, thus affecting the height of the
    document's bounding box, thus affecting the height of the viewport, thus affecting the size of
    the initial containing block.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>In speech media, the user agent should render the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>
   without announcing that it is a separate document.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>User agents should, in general, act as if the <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the
    <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>'s <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> was part of the document that the
    <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> is in, if any.</p>

    <p class="example">For example if the user agent supports listing all the links in a document,
    links in "seamlessly" nested documents would be included in that list without being
    significantly distinguished from links in the document itself.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>The <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>'s <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object's
   <a href="#cross-boundary-event-parent">cross-boundary event parent</a> is the <a href="#browsing-context-container">browsing context container</a>. <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a></p></li>

  </ul>

  <p>If the attribute is not specified, or if the <a href="#origin-0">origin</a> conditions listed above are
  not met, then the user agent should render the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> in a manner
  that is clearly distinguishable as a separate <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>, and the
  <a href="#seamless-browsing-context-flag">seamless browsing context flag</a> must be set to false for that <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>.</p>

  <p class="warning">It is important that user agents recheck the above conditions whenever the
  <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> of the
  <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> changes, such that the <a href="#seamless-browsing-context-flag">seamless browsing context flag</a> gets unset

 we have all kinds of quirks we should define if they come up during

 http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/generic/nsObjectFrame.cpp
 http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebCore/html/HTMLEmbedElement.cpp
 http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebCore/rendering/RenderPartObject.cpp (updateWidget)
 e.g. - 240x200 default
      - the attributes/params are sent in a name-value pair list as follows (for Gecko):
         + attributes of the element, in source order
         + a synthesised 'src' attribute, if there was no 'src' but
           there was a 'data', with the value of the 'data' attribute
         + the params, in source order
        (WebKit does something different still)

  <p><a href="#media-element" title="media element">Media elements</a> are used to present audio data, or video and
  audio data, to the user. This is referred to as <dfn id="media-data">media data</dfn> in this section, since this
  section applies equally to <a href="#media-element" title="media element">media elements</a> for audio or for
  video.

  The term <dfn id="media-resource">media resource</dfn> is used to refer to the complete set of media data, e.g. the
  complete video file, or complete audio file.

  </p>

  <p>A <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> can have multiple audio and video tracks. For the purposes of a
  <a href="#media-element">media element</a>, the video data of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is only that of the
  currently selected track (if any) given by the element's <code title="dom-media-videoTracks"><a href="#dom-media-videotracks">videoTracks</a></code> attribute, and the audio data of the <a href="#media-resource">media
  resource</a> is the result of mixing all the currently enabled tracks (if any) given by the
  element's <code title="dom-media-audioTracks"><a href="#dom-media-audiotracks">audioTracks</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p class="note">Both <code><a href="#the-audio-element">audio</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-video-element">video</a></code> elements can be used for both audio
  and video. The main difference between the two is simply that the <code><a href="#the-audio-element">audio</a></code> element has
  no playback area for visual content (such as video or captions), whereas the <code><a href="#the-video-element">video</a></code>
  element does.</p>

  <h5 id="mime-types"><span class="secno">4.8.10.3 </span>MIME types</h5>

  <p>A <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> can be described in terms of its <em>type</em>, specifically a
  <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>, in some cases with a <code title="">codecs</code> parameter. (Whether the
  <code title="">codecs</code> parameter is allowed or not depends on the MIME type.) <a href="#refsRFC4281">[RFC4281]</a></p>

  <p>Types are usually somewhat incomplete descriptions; for example "<code title="">video/mpeg</code>" doesn't say anything except what the container type is, and even a
  type like "<code title="">video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"</code>" doesn't
  include information like the actual bitrate (only the maximum bitrate). Thus, given a type, a user
  agent can often only know whether it <em>might</em> be able to play media of that type (with
  varying levels of confidence), or whether it definitely <em>cannot</em> play media of that
  type.</p>

  <p><dfn id="a-type-that-the-user-agent-knows-it-cannot-render">A type that the user agent knows it cannot render</dfn> is one that describes a resource
  that the user agent definitely does not support, for example because it doesn't recognize the
  container type, or it doesn't support the listed codecs.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> "<code>application/octet-stream</code>" with no parameters is never
  <a href="#a-type-that-the-user-agent-knows-it-cannot-render">a type that the user agent knows it cannot render</a>. User agents must treat that type
  as equivalent to the lack of any explicit <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a>
  when it is used to label a potential <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">Only the <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> "<code>application/octet-stream</code>" with no
  parameters is special-cased here; if any parameter appears with it, it will be treated just like
  any other <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>. This is a deviation from the rule <!-- in RFC 2046, section 1,
  paragraph 3 --> that unknown <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> parameters should be ignored.</p> <!-- but not
  really a "willful violation" since it's not that the types are not being ignored, just that before

    When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s download has been blocked altogether, the user agent must
    act as if it was stalled (as opposed to acting as if the connection was closed). The rate of the
    download may also be throttled automatically by the user agent, e.g. to balance the download
    with other connections sharing the same bandwidth.</p>

    <p id="resourceSuspend">User agents may decide to not download more content at any time, e.g.
    after buffering five minutes of a one hour media resource, while waiting for the user to decide
    whether to play the resource or not, while waiting for user input in an interactive resource, or
    when the user navigates away from the page. When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s download has
    been suspended, the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a>, using the <a href="#dom-manipulation-task-source">DOM manipulation
    task source</a>, to set the <code title="dom-media-networkState"><a href="#dom-media-networkstate">networkState</a></code> to <code title="dom-media-NETWORK_IDLE"><a href="#dom-media-network_idle">NETWORK_IDLE</a></code> and <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named
    <code title="event-media-suspend"><a href="#event-media-suspend">suspend</a></code> at the element. If and when downloading of the
    resource resumes, the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to set the <code title="dom-media-networkState"><a href="#dom-media-networkstate">networkState</a></code> to <code title="dom-media-NETWORK_LOADING"><a href="#dom-media-network_loading">NETWORK_LOADING</a></code>. Between the queuing of these tasks,
    the load is suspended (so <code title="event-media-progress"><a href="#event-media-progress">progress</a></code> events don't fire,
    as described above).</p>

    <p class="note">The <code title="attr-media-preload"><a href="#attr-media-preload">preload</a></code> attribute provides a hint
    regarding how much buffering the author thinks is advisable, even in the absence of the <code title="attr-media-autoplay"><a href="#attr-media-autoplay">autoplay</a></code> attribute.</p>

    <p>When a user agent decides to completely stall a download, e.g. if it is waiting until the
    user starts playback before downloading any further content, the element's
    <a href="#delaying-the-load-event-flag">delaying-the-load-event flag</a> must be set to false. This stops <a href="#delay-the-load-event" title="delay
    the load event">delaying the load event</a>.</p>

    <p>The user agent may use whatever means necessary to fetch the resource (within the constraints
    put forward by this and other specifications); for example, reconnecting to the server in the
    face of network errors, using HTTP range retrieval requests, or switching to a streaming
    protocol. The user agent must consider a resource erroneous only if it has given up trying to
    fetch it.</p>

    <p class="critical">This specification does not currently say whether or how to check the MIME
    types of the media resources, or whether or how to perform file type sniffing using the actual
    file data. Implementors differ in their intentions on this matter and it is therefore unclear
    what the right solution is. In the absence of any requirement here, the HTTP specification's
    strict requirement to follow the Content-Type header prevails ("Content-Type specifies the media
    type of the underlying data." ... "If and only if the media type is not given by a Content-Type
    field, the recipient MAY attempt to guess the media type via inspection of its content
    and<!---->/<!---->or the name extension(s) of the URI used to identify the resource.").</p>

  <p>The empty string is also a valid keyword, and maps to the <a href="#attr-media-preload-auto-state" title="attr-media-preload-auto-state">Automatic</a> state. The attribute's <i>missing value

  <div class="impl">

  <p>A <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> has a <dfn id="media-timeline">media timeline</dfn> that maps times (in seconds) to
  positions in the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>. The origin of a timeline is its earliest defined
  position. The duration of a timeline is its last defined position.</p>

  <p><dfn id="defineTimeline" title="establish the media timeline">Establishing the media
  timeline</dfn>: If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> somehow specifies an explicit timeline whose
  origin is not negative (i.e. gives each frame a specific time offset and gives the first frame a
  zero or positive offset), then the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a> should be that timeline. (Whether
  the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> can specify a timeline or not depends on the <a href="#media-resource" title="media
  resource">media resource's</a> format.) If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> specifies an
  explicit start time <em>and date</em>, then that time and date should be considered the zero point
  in the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>; the <a href="#timeline-offset">timeline offset</a> will be the time and date,
  exposed using the <code title="dom-media-getStartDate"><a href="#dom-media-getstartdate">getStartDate()</a></code> method.</p>

  <p>If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> has a discontinuous timeline, the user agent must extend the
  timeline used at the start of the resource across the entire resource, so that the <a href="#media-timeline">media
  timeline</a> of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> increases linearly starting from the
  <a href="#earliest-possible-position">earliest possible position</a> (as defined below), even if the underlying <a href="#media-data">media
  data</a> has out-of-order or even overlapping time codes.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if two clips have been concatenated into one video file, but the
  video format exposes the original times for the two clips, the video data might expose a timeline
  that goes, say, 00:15..00:29 and then 00:05..00:38. However, the user agent would not expose those
  times; it would instead expose the times as 00:15..00:29 and 00:29..01:02, as a single video.</p>

  <p>In the rare case of a <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> that does not have an explicit timeline, the
  zero time on the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a> should correspond to the first frame of the
  <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>. In the even rarer case of a <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> with no
  explicit timings of any kind, not even frame durations, the user agent must itself determine the
  time for each frame in a user-agent-defined manner.
  <a class="fingerprint" href="#fingerprinting-vector" title="fingerprinting vector"><img alt="(This is a fingerprinting vector.)" height="64" src="images/fingerprint.png" width="46"></a>
  </p>

  <p class="note">An example of a file format with no explicit timeline but with explicit frame
  durations is the Animated GIF format. An example of a file format with no explicit timings at all
  is the JPEG-push format (<code><a href="#multipart/x-mixed-replace">multipart/x-mixed-replace</a></code> with JPEG frames, often
  used as the format for MJPEG streams).</p>

  <p>If, in the case of a resource with no timing information, the user agent will nonetheless be
  able to seek to an earlier point than the first frame originally provided by the server, then the
  zero time should correspond to the earliest seekable time of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>;
  otherwise, it should correspond to the first frame received from the server (the point in the
  <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> at which the user agent began receiving the stream).</p>

  <p class="note">At the time of writing, there is no known format that lacks explicit frame time
  offsets yet still supports seeking to a frame before the first frame sent by the server.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider a stream from a TV broadcaster, which begins streaming on a sunny Friday afternoon in
   October, and always sends connecting user agents the media data on the same media timeline, with
   its zero time set to the start of this stream. Months later, user agents connecting to this
   stream will find that the first frame they receive has a time with millions of seconds. The <code title="dom-media-getStartDate"><a href="#dom-media-getstartdate">getStartDate()</a></code> method would always return the date that the
   broadcast started; this would allow controllers to display real times in their scrubber (e.g.
   "2:30pm") rather than a time relative to when the broadcast began ("8 months, 4 hours, 12
   minutes, and 23 seconds").</p>

   <p>Consider a stream that carries a video with several concatenated fragments, broadcast by a
   server that does not allow user agents to request specific times but instead just streams the
   video data in a predetermined order, with the first frame delivered always being identified as
   the frame with time zero. If a user agent connects to this stream and receives fragments defined
   as covering timestamps 2010-03-20 23:15:00 UTC to 2010-03-21 00:05:00 UTC and 2010-02-12 14:25:00
   UTC to 2010-02-12 14:35:00 UTC, it would expose this with a <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a> starting
   at 0s and extending to 3,600s (one hour). Assuming the streaming server disconnected at the end
   of the second clip, the <code title="dom-media-duration"><a href="#dom-media-duration">duration</a></code> attribute would then
   return 3,600. The <code title="dom-media-getStartDate"><a href="#dom-media-getstartdate">getStartDate()</a></code> method would return a
   <code>Date</code> object with a time corresponding to 2010-03-20 23:15:00 UTC. However, if a
   different user agent connected five minutes later, <em>it</em> would (presumably) receive
   fragments covering timestamps 2010-03-20 23:20:00 UTC to 2010-03-21 00:05:00 UTC and 2010-02-12
   14:25:00 UTC to 2010-02-12 14:35:00 UTC, and would expose this with a <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>
   starting at 0s and extending to 3,300s (fifty five minutes). In this case, the <code title="dom-media-getStartDate"><a href="#dom-media-getstartdate">getStartDate()</a></code> method would return a <code>Date</code> object
   with a time corresponding to 2010-03-20 23:20:00 UTC.</p>

   <p>In both of these examples, the <code title="dom-media-seekable"><a href="#dom-media-seekable">seekable</a></code> attribute
   would give the ranges that the controller would want to actually display in its UI; typically, if
   the servers don't support seeking to arbitrary times, this would be the range of time from the
   moment the user agent connected to the stream up to the latest frame that the user agent has
   obtained; however, if the user agent starts discarding earlier information, the actual range
   might be shorter.</p>

  <p>In any case, the user agent must ensure that the <a href="#earliest-possible-position">earliest possible position</a> (as
  defined below) using the established <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>, is greater than or equal to
  zero.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a> also has an associated clock. Which clock is used is user-agent

  <p><a href="#media-element" title="media element">Media elements</a> also have an <dfn id="official-playback-position">official playback

  <p><a href="#media-element" title="media element">Media elements</a> also have a <dfn id="default-playback-start-position">default playback start
  position</dfn>, which must initially be set to zero seconds. This time is used to allow the
  element to be seeked even before the media is loaded.</p>

  <p>Each <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <dfn id="show-poster-flag">show poster flag</dfn>. When a <a href="#media-element">media

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-media-currenttime" title="dom-media-currentTime"><code>currentTime</code></dfn> attribute must, on

  unless that is zero, in which case it must return the element's <a href="#official-playback-position">official playback

  <p>If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is a streaming resource, then the user agent might be unable

  <p class="note">The <a href="#earliest-possible-position">earliest possible position</a> is not explicitly exposed in the API;

  <!-- see https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14492 -->
  <!-- basically this is to handle very-long-running streams that use different video and audio
       tracks per TV show -->

  <p>If at any time the user agent learns that an audio or video track has ended and all <a href="#media-data">media
  data</a> relating to that track corresponds to parts of the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a> that
  are <em>before</em> the <a href="#earliest-possible-position">earliest possible position</a>, the user agent may <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a
  task</a> to first remove the track from the <code title="dom-media-audioTracks"><a href="#dom-media-audiotracks">audioTracks</a></code>
  attribute's <code><a href="#audiotracklist">AudioTrackList</a></code> object or the <code title="dom-media-videoTracks"><a href="#dom-media-videotracks">videoTracks</a></code> attribute's <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code> object as
  appropriate and then <a href="#concept-event-fire" title="concept-event-fire">fire</a> a <a href="#concept-events-trusted" title="concept-events-trusted">trusted</a> event with the name <code title="event-media-removetrack"><a href="#event-media-removetrack">removetrack</a></code>, that does not bubble and is not cancelable, and that
  uses the <code><a href="#trackevent">TrackEvent</a></code> interface, with the <code title="dom-TrackEvent-track"><a href="#dom-trackevent-track">track</a></code> attribute initialized to the <code><a href="#audiotrack">AudioTrack</a></code> or
  <code><a href="#videotrack">VideoTrack</a></code> object representing the track, at the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s
  aforementioned <code><a href="#audiotracklist">AudioTrackList</a></code> or <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code> object.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-media-duration" title="dom-media-duration"><code>duration</code></dfn> attribute must return the time
  of the end of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>, in seconds, on the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>. If
  no <a href="#media-data">media data</a> is available, then the attributes must return the Not-a-Number (NaN)
  value. If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is not known to be bounded (e.g. streaming radio, or a
  live event with no announced end time), then the attribute must return the positive Infinity
  value.</p>

  <p>The user agent must determine the duration of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> before playing
  any part of the <a href="#media-data">media data</a> and before setting <code title="dom-media-readyState"><a href="#dom-media-readystate">readyState</a></code> to a value equal to or greater than <code title="dom-media-HAVE_METADATA"><a href="#dom-media-have_metadata">HAVE_METADATA</a></code>, even if doing so requires fetching multiple
  parts of the resource.</p>

  <p id="durationChange">When the length of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> changes to a known value
  (e.g. from being unknown to known, or from a previously established length to a new length) the
  user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-media-durationchange"><a href="#event-media-durationchange">durationchange</a></code> at the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>. (The
  event is not fired when the duration is reset as part of loading a new media resource.) If the
  duration is changed such that the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a> ends up being greater
  than the time of the end of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>, then the user agent must also <a href="#dom-media-seek" title="dom-media-seek">seek</a> to the time of the end of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>.</p>

  <p class="example">If an "infinite" stream ends for some reason, then the duration would change
  from positive Infinity to the time of the last frame or sample in the stream, and the <code title="event-media-durationchange"><a href="#event-media-durationchange">durationchange</a></code> event would be fired. Similarly, if the
  user agent initially estimated the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>'s duration instead of determining
  it precisely, and later revises the estimate based on new information, then the duration would
  change and the <code title="event-media-durationchange"><a href="#event-media-durationchange">durationchange</a></code> event would be
  fired.</p>

  <p>Some video files also have an explicit date and time corresponding to the zero time in the
  <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>, known as the <dfn id="timeline-offset">timeline offset</dfn>. Initially, the
  <a href="#timeline-offset">timeline offset</a> must be set to Not-a-Number (NaN).</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-media-getstartdate" title="dom-media-getStartDate"><code>getStartDate()</code></dfn> method must return <a href="#create-a-date-object" title="create a Date object">a new <code>Date</code> object</a> representing the current

  of media time per unit time of the <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>'s clock. (This specification always
  refers to this as an <i>increase</i>, but that increase could actually be a <em>de</em>crease if
  the <a href="#effective-playback-rate">effective playback rate</a> is negative.)</p>

  <p class="note">The <a href="#effective-playback-rate">effective playback rate</a> can be 0.0, in which case the

  <p class="note">This specification doesn't define how the user agent achieves the appropriate
  playback rate — depending on the protocol and media available, it is plausible that the user
  agent could negotiate with the server to have the server provide the media data at the appropriate
  rate, so that (except for the period between when the rate is changed and when the server updates
  the stream's playback rate) the client doesn't actually have to drop or interpolate any
  frames.</p>
 
  <p>Any time the user agent <a href="#provide-a-stable-state" title="provide a stable state">provides a stable state</a>,
  the <a href="#official-playback-position">official playback position</a> must be set to the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback
  position</a>.</p>

  <p>When the <a href="#direction-of-playback">direction of playback</a> is backwards, any corresponding audio must be
  muted. When the <a href="#effective-playback-rate">effective playback rate</a> is so low or so high that the user agent
  cannot play audio usefully, the corresponding audio must also be muted. If the <a href="#effective-playback-rate">effective
  playback rate</a> is not 1.0, the user agent may apply pitch adjustments to the audio as
  necessary to render it faithfully.</p>

  by that element may the element be garbage collected.</p>

  <p class="note">It is possible for an element to which no explicit references exist to play audio,

  <p>When the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a> of a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> changes (e.g.
  due to playback or seeking), the user agent must run the <i><a href="#time-marches-on">time marches on</a></i> steps. If the
  <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a> changes while the steps are running, then the user agent
  must wait for the steps to complete, and then must immediately rerun the steps. (These steps are
  thus run as often as possible or needed — if one iteration takes a long time, this can cause
  certain <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">cues</a> to be skipped over as the user agent rushes ahead
  to "catch up".)</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="time-marches-on"><i>time marches on</i></dfn> steps are as follows:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>Let <var title="">last time</var> be the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a> at the
   time this algorithm was last run for this <a href="#media-element">media element</a>, if this is not the first
   time it has run.</p></li>

   <li><p>If the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a> has, since the last time this algorithm was
   run, only changed through its usual monotonic increase during normal playback, then let <var title="">missed cues</var> be the list of <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">cues</a> in <var title="">other cues</var> whose <a href="#text-track-cue-start-time" title="text track cue start time">start times</a> are

   time">end times</a> are less than or equal to the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a>.
   Otherwise, let <var title="">missed cues</var> be an empty list.</p></li>

   <li><p>Remove all the <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">cues</a> in <var title="">missed cues</var>
   that are also in the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s <a href="#list-of-newly-introduced-cues">list of newly introduced cues</a>, and
   then empty the element's <a href="#list-of-newly-introduced-cues">list of newly introduced cues</a>.</p></li>

   <li><p>If the time was reached through the usual monotonic increase of the <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback

   is not still running event handlers for such an event, then the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a
   task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-media-timeupdate"><a href="#event-media-timeupdate">timeupdate</a></code> at the element. (In the other cases, such as
   explicit seeks, relevant events get fired as part of the overall process of changing the
   <a href="#current-playback-position">current playback position</a>.)</p>

   <p class="note">The event thus is not to be fired faster than about 66Hz or slower than 4Hz
   (assuming the event handlers don't take longer than 250ms to run). User agents are encouraged to
   vary the frequency of the event based on the system load and the average cost of processing the
   event each time, so that the UI updates are not any more frequent than the user agent can
   comfortably handle while decoding the video.</p></li>

   <li><p>If all of the <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">cues</a> in <var title="">current cues</var>
   have their <a href="#text-track-cue-active-flag">text track cue active flag</a> set, none of the <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track

    So, no need to couch all this in a task. --></p>

    <p class="note">In the other cases, such as explicit seeks, playback is not paused by going past
    the end time of a <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">cue</a>, even if that <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track

  <p>A <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code> object represents a dynamic list of zero or more video tracks, of

  <p>Tracks in <code><a href="#audiotracklist">AudioTrackList</a></code> and <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code> objects must be

  <p>The <code><a href="#audiotrack">AudioTrack</a></code> and <code><a href="#videotrack">VideoTrack</a></code> objects represent specific tracks of a
  <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>. Each track can have an identifier, category, label, and language.
  These aspects of a track are permanent for the lifetime of the track; even if a track is removed
  from a <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>'s <code><a href="#audiotracklist">AudioTrackList</a></code> or <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code>
  objects, those aspects do not change.</p>

  <p>In addition, <code><a href="#audiotrack">AudioTrack</a></code> objects can each be enabled or disabled; this is the audio
  track's <i>enabled state</i>. When an <code><a href="#audiotrack">AudioTrack</a></code> is created, its <i>enabled state</i>
  must be set to false (disabled). The <a href="#concept-media-load-resource" title="concept-media-load-resource">resource fetch

  <p>Similarly, a single <code><a href="#videotrack">VideoTrack</a></code> object per <code><a href="#videotracklist">VideoTrackList</a></code> object can
  be selected, this is the video track's <i>selection state</i>. When a <code><a href="#videotrack">VideoTrack</a></code> is

  of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise. If the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is
  in a format that supports the <cite>Media Fragments URI</cite> fragment identifier syntax, the
  identifier returned for a particular track must be the same identifier that would enable the track
  if used as the name of a track in the track dimension of such a fragment identifier. <a href="#refsMEDIAFRAG">[MEDIAFRAG]</a></p>

  <p class="example">For example, in Ogg files, this would be the Name header field of the track. <a href="#refsOGGSKELETONHEADERS">[OGGSKELETONHEADERS]</a></p>

  of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise.</p>

  <p>The category of a track is the string given in the first column of the table below that is the
  most appropriate for the track based on the definitions in the table's second and third columns,
  as determined by the metadata included in the track in the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>. The cell
  in the third column of a row says what the category given in the cell in the first column of that
  row applies to; a category is only appropriate for an audio track if it applies to audio tracks,
  and a category is only appropriate for video tracks if it applies to video tracks. Categories must
  only be returned for <code><a href="#audiotrack">AudioTrack</a></code> objects if they are appropriate for audio, and must
  only be returned for <code><a href="#videotrack">VideoTrack</a></code> objects if they are appropriate for video.</p>

  <p>For Ogg files, the Role header field of the track gives the relevant metadata. For DASH media
  resources, the <code title="">Role</code> element conveys the information. For WebM, only the

  <h5 id="synchronising-multiple-media-elements"><span class="secno">4.8.10.11 </span>Synchronising multiple media elements</h5>

  <h6 id="introduction-0"><span class="secno">4.8.10.11.1 </span>Introduction</h6>

  <p>Each <a href="#media-element">media element</a> can have a <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>. A
  <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> is an object that coordinates the playback of multiple <a href="#media-element" title="media element">media elements</a>, for instance so that a sign-language interpreter
  track can be overlaid on a video track, with the two being kept in sync.</p>

  <p>By default, a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has no <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>. An implicit
  <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> can be assigned using the <code title="attr-media-mediagroup"><a href="#attr-media-mediagroup">mediagroup</a></code> content attribute. An explicit
  <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> can be assigned directly using the <code title="dom-media-controller"><a href="#dom-media-controller">controller</a></code> IDL attribute.</p>

  <p><a href="#media-element" title="media element">Media elements</a> with a <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> are said
  to be <i>slaved</i> to their controller. The <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> modifies the playback
  rate and the playback volume of each of the <a href="#media-element" title="media element">media elements</a>
  slaved to it, and ensures that when any of its slaved <a href="#media-element" title="media element">media
  elements</a> unexpectedly stall, the others are stopped at the same time.</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> is slaved to a <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>, its playback
  rate is fixed to that of the other tracks in the same <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>, and any
  looping is disabled.</p>

<!-- v2: add control to loop, add control to playback rate
  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, two audio elements are slaved to the same (implicit) controller so that a
   waltz played by one audio element is kept exactly synchronised to the "tick tock tock" sound of
   the metronome played by the second element:</p>

   <pre>&lt;audio src="The%20Amelia%20Earhart%20Waltz.wav" controls autoplay mediagroup="song">&lt;/audio>
&lt;audio src="metronomes/3-4.wav" autoplay loop mediagroup="song">&lt;/audio></pre>

   <p>Assuming the song keeps a regular tempo throughout and assuming the metronome has the same
   tempo, this works even though if the metronome file only has one measure's worth of "tick tock
   tock", because the controller (implied by the <code
   title="attr-media-mediagroup">mediagroup</code> attribute) guarantees that the two elements will
   be kept synchronised, even if the user rewinds, jumps to a different part of the song, etc (the
   user agent controls made available by the <code title="attr-media-controls">controls</code>
   attribute on the song's <code>audio</code> element affect the <code>MediaController</code>'s
   state).</p>

   <p>If the metronome has the wrong rate, its rate can be adjusted by script separately from the
   song's (using the <code title="dom-media-playbackRate">audio.playbackRate</code> IDL attribute).
   The two elements will play back their <span>media data</span> at different rates, but the ratio
   will again be controlled by the <code>MediaController</code>.</p>

  </ol>

  <p>A <a href="#text-track">text track</a> consists of:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt><dfn id="text-track-kind" title="text track kind">The kind of text track</dfn>

   </dt><dd>

    <p>This decides how the track is handled by the user agent. The kind is represented by a string.

    <p>The <a href="#text-track-kind" title="text track kind">kind of track</a> can change dynamically, in the case of

   </dd>

   <dt><dfn id="text-track-label" title="text track label">A label</dfn>

    <p>This is a human-readable string intended to identify the track for the user.</p>

    <p>The <a href="#text-track-label" title="text track label">label of a track</a> can change dynamically, in the
    case of a <a href="#text-track">text track</a> corresponding to a <code><a href="#the-track-element">track</a></code> element.</p>

    <p>When a <a href="#text-track-label">text track label</a> is the empty string, the user agent should automatically
    generate an appropriate label from the text track's other properties (e.g. the kind of text
    track and the text track's language) for use in its user interface. This automatically-generated
    label is not exposed in the API.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt><dfn id="text-track-in-band-metadata-track-dispatch-type" title="text track in-band metadata track dispatch type">An in-band metadata track dispatch type</dfn>

   </dt><dd>

    <p>This is a string extracted from the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> specifically for in-band
    metadata tracks to enable such tracks to be dispatched to different scripts in the document.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, a traditional TV station broadcast streamed on the Web and
    augmented with Web-specific interactive features could include text tracks with metadata for ad
    targeting, trivia game data during game shows, player states during sports games, recipe
    information during food programs, and so forth. As each program starts and ends, new tracks
    might be added or removed from the stream, and as each one is added, the user agent could bind
    them to dedicated script modules using the value of this attribute.</p>

    <p>Other than for in-band metadata text tracks, the <a href="#text-track-in-band-metadata-track-dispatch-type" title="text track in-band metadata
    track dispatch type">in-band metadata track dispatch type</a> is the empty string. How this

  <p>A <dfn id="text-track-cue">text track cue</dfn> is the unit of time-sensitive data in a <a href="#text-track">text track</a>,

  <p>Each <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> consists of:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt><dfn id="text-track-cue-identifier" title="text track cue identifier">An identifier</dfn>
   </dt><dd>
    <p>An arbitrary string.</p>
   </dd>

   </dd>

   <dt><dfn id="text-track-cue-end-time" title="text track cue end time">An end time</dfn>

    <p>A boolean indicating whether playback of the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is to pause when the

   </dd>

   <dt>Some additional format-specific data</dt>
   <dd>
    <p>Additional fields, as needed for the format. For example, WebVTT has a <a href="#text-track-cue-writing-direction">text track cue

  though, so cues entirely before time zero cannot be active.)</p>

  <p>Each <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> has a corresponding <code><a href="#texttrackcue">TextTrackCue</a></code> object (or more
  specifically, an object that inherits from <code><a href="#texttrackcue">TextTrackCue</a></code> — for example, WebVTT
  cues use the <code>VTTCue</code> interface). A <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a>'s in-memory
  representation can be dynamically changed through this <code><a href="#texttrackcue">TextTrackCue</a></code> API. <a href="#refsWEBVTT">[WEBVTT]</a></p>

  <p>A <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> is associated with <a href="#rules-for-updating-the-text-track-rendering">rules for updating the text track
  rendering</a>, as defined by the specification for the specific kind of <a href="#text-track-cue">text track

  method.</p>

  <p>In addition, each <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> has two pieces of dynamic information:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>The <dfn id="text-track-cue-active-flag" title="text track cue active flag">active flag</dfn>
   </dt><dd>

    <p>This flag must be initially unset. The flag is used to ensure events are fired appropriately
    when the cue becomes active or inactive, and to make sure the right cues are rendered.</p>

    <p>The user agent must synchronously unset this flag whenever the <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> is
    removed from its <a href="#text-track">text track</a>'s <a href="#text-track-list-of-cues">text track list of cues</a>; whenever the

    or more cues in <a href="#text-track" title="text track">text tracks</a> that were <a href="#text-track-showing" title="text track

   <dt>The <dfn id="text-track-cue-display-state" title="text track cue display state">display state</dfn>

    <p>This is used as part of the rendering model, to keep cues in a consistent position. It must

  <p>The <a href="#text-track-cue" title="text track cue">text track cues</a> of a <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s <a href="#text-track" title="text track">text tracks</a> are ordered relative to each other in the <dfn id="text-track-cue-order">text track

  <p>How a specific format's text track cues are to be interpreted for the purposes of processing by
  an HTML user agent is defined by that format. In the absence of such a specification, this section
  provides some constraints within which implementations can attempt to consistently expose such
  formats.</p>

  <p>To support the <a href="#text-track">text track</a> model of HTML, each unit of timed data is converted to a
  <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a>. Where the mapping of the format's features to the aspects of a
  <a href="#text-track-cue">text track cue</a> as defined in this specification are not defined, implementations must
  ensure that the mapping is consistent with the definitions of the aspects of a <a href="#text-track-cue">text track
  cue</a> as defined above, as well as with the following constraints:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>The <a href="#text-track-cue-identifier">text track cue identifier</a>
   </dt><dd>
    <p>Should be set to the empty string if the format has no obvious analogue to a per-cue
    identifier.</p>
   </dd>

   <dt>The <a href="#text-track-cue-pause-on-exit-flag">text track cue pause-on-exit flag</a>
   </dt><dd>
    <p>Should be set to false.</p>

  <h5 id="user-interface"><span class="secno">4.8.10.13 </span>User interface</h5>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-media-controls" title="attr-media-controls"><code>controls</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean
  attribute</a>. If present, it indicates that the author has not provided a scripted controller
  and would like the user agent to provide its own set of controls.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If the attribute is present, or if <a href="#concept-n-noscript" title="concept-n-noscript">scripting is
  disabled</a> for the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>, then the user agent should <dfn id="expose-a-user-interface-to-the-user">expose a user
  interface to the user</dfn>. This user interface should include features to begin playback, pause
  playback, seek to an arbitrary position in the content (if the content supports arbitrary
  seeking), change the volume, change the display of closed captions or embedded sign-language
  tracks, select different audio tracks or turn on audio descriptions, and show the media content in
  manners more suitable to the user (e.g. full-screen video or in an independent resizable window).
  Other controls may also be made available.</p>

  <p>If the <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>, then the user
  agent should expose audio tracks from all the <a href="#slaved-media-elements">slaved media elements</a> (although
  avoiding duplicates if the same <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a> is being used several times). If a
  <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>'s audio track exposed in this way has no known name, and it is the
  only audio track for a particular <a href="#media-element">media element</a>, the user agent should use the
  element's <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute, if any, as the name (or as part of the
  name) of that track.</p>

  <p>Even when the attribute is absent, however, user agents may provide controls to affect playback
  of the media resource (e.g. play, pause, seeking, and volume controls), but such features should
  not interfere with the page's normal rendering. For example, such features could be exposed in the
  <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s context menu. The user agent may implement this simply by <a href="#expose-a-user-interface-to-the-user" title="expose a user interface to the user">exposing a user interface to the user</a> as
  described above (as if the <code title="attr-media-controls"><a href="#attr-media-controls">controls</a></code> attribute was
  present).</p>

  <p>If the user agent <a href="#expose-a-user-interface-to-the-user" title="expose a user interface to the user">exposes a user interface to
  the user</a> by displaying controls over the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>, then the user agent
  should suppress any user interaction events while the user agent is interacting with this
  interface. (For example, if the user clicks on a video's playback control, <code title="event-mousedown">mousedown</code> events and so forth would not simultaneously be fired at
  elements on the page.)</p>

  <p>Where possible (specifically, for starting, stopping, pausing, and unpausing playback, for
  seeking, for changing the rate of playback, for fast-forwarding or rewinding, for listing,
  enabling, and disabling text tracks, and for muting or changing the volume of the audio), user
  interface features exposed by the user agent must be implemented in terms of the DOM API described
  above, so that, e.g., all the same events fire.</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>, the user agent's
  user interface for pausing and unpausing playback, for seeking, for changing the rate of playback,
  for fast-forwarding or rewinding, and for muting or changing the volume of audio of the entire
  group must be implemented in terms of the <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> API exposed on that
  <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>. When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media
  controller</a>, and all the <a href="#slaved-media-elements">slaved media elements</a> of that
  <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> are paused, the user agent should also unpause all the <a href="#slaved-media-elements">slaved
  media elements</a> when the user invokes a user agent interface control for beginning
  playback.</p>

  <p>The "play" function in the user agent's interface must set the <code title="">playbackRate</code> attribute to the value of the <code title="">defaultPlaybackRate</code> attribute before invoking the <code title="">play()</code>
  method. When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>, the
  attributes and method with those names on that <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> object must be used.
  Otherwise, the attributes and method with those names on the <a href="#media-element">media element</a> itself
  must be used. </p>

  <p>Features such as fast-forward or rewind must be implemented by only changing the <code title="">playbackRate</code> attribute (and not the <code title="">defaultPlaybackRate</code>
  attribute). Again, when a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>,
  the attributes with those names on that <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> object must be used;
  otherwise, the attributes with those names on the <a href="#media-element">media element</a> itself must be used.</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>, seeking must be
  implemented in terms of the <code title="dom-MediaController-currentTime"><a href="#dom-mediacontroller-currenttime">currentTime</a></code>
  attribute on that <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code> object. Otherwise, the user agent must directly
  <a href="#dom-media-seek" title="dom-media-seek">seek</a> to the requested position in the <a href="#media-element">media
  element</a>'s <a href="#media-timeline">media timeline</a>. For media resources where seeking to an arbitrary
  position would be slow, user agents are encouraged to use the <i>approximate-for-speed</i> flag
  when seeking in response to the user manipulating an approximate position interface such as a seek
  bar.</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> has a <a href="#current-media-controller">current media controller</a>, user agents may
  additionally provide the user with controls that directly manipulate an individual <a href="#media-element">media
  element</a> without affecting the <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>, but such features are
  considered relatively advanced and unlikely to be useful to most users.</p>

  <p>For the purposes of listing chapters in the <a href="#media-resource">media resource</a>, only <a href="#text-track" title="text
  track">text tracks</a> in the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>'s <a href="#list-of-text-tracks">list of text tracks</a>
  that are <a href="#text-track-showing" title="text track showing">showing</a> and whose <a href="#text-track-kind">text track kind</a> is
  <code title="dom-TextTrack-kind-chapters"><a href="#dom-texttrack-kind-chapters">chapters</a></code> should be used. Such tracks must be
  interpreted according to the <a href="#rules-for-constructing-the-chapter-tree-from-a-text-track">rules for constructing the chapter tree from a text
  track</a>. When seeking in response to a user maniplating a chapter selection interface, user
  agents should not use the <i>approximate-for-speed</i> flag.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-media-controls" title="dom-media-controls"><code>controls</code></dfn> IDL attribute must
  <a href="#reflect">reflect</a> the content attribute of the same name.</p>

  (loudest). Initially, the volume should be 1.0, but user agents may remember the last set value

  setting, if the new value is in the range 0.0 to 1.0 inclusive, the playback volume of any audio
  portions of the <a href="#media-element">media element</a> must be set to the new value. If the new value is

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-media-muted" title="dom-media-muted"><code>muted</code></dfn> attribute must return true if the

   <li><p>If the element's audio output is muted, the element's <a href="#effective-media-volume">effective media volume</a>

  <div class="impl">

  <h5 id="security-and-privacy-considerations"><span class="secno">4.8.10.17 </span>Security and privacy considerations</h5>

  <p>The main security and privacy implications of the
  <code><a href="#the-video-element">video</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-audio-element">audio</a></code> elements come from the
  ability to embed media cross-origin. There are two directions that
  threats can flow: from hostile content to a victim page, and from a
  hostile page to victim content.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>If a victim page embeds hostile content, the threat is that the
  content might contain scripted code that attempts to interact with
  the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> that embeds the content. To avoid this,
  user agents must ensure that there is no access from the content to
  the embedding page. In the case of media content that uses DOM
  concepts, the embedded content must be treated as if it was in its
  own unrelated <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a>.</p>

  <p class="example">For instance, if an SVG animation was embedded in
  a <code><a href="#the-video-element">video</a></code> element, the user agent would not give it
  access to the DOM of the outer page. From the perspective of scripts
  in the SVG resource, the SVG file would appear to be in a lone
  top-level browsing context with no parent.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>If a hostile page embeds victim content, the threat is that the
  embedding page could obtain information from the content that it
  would not otherwise have access to. The API does expose some
  information: the existence of the media, its type, its duration, its
  size, and the performance characteristics of its host. Such
  information is already potentially problematic, but in practice the
  same information can more or less be obtained using the
  <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element, and so it has been deemed acceptable.</p>

  <p>However, significantly more sensitive information could be
  obtained if the user agent further exposes metadata within the
  content such as subtitles or chapter titles. Such information is
  therefore only exposed if the video resource passes a CORS
  <a href="#resource-sharing-check">resource sharing check</a>. The <code title="attr-media-crossorigin"><a href="#attr-media-crossorigin">crossorigin</a></code> attribute allows
  authors to control how this check is performed. <a href="#refsCORS">[CORS]</a></p>

  <p class="example">Without this restriction, an attacker could trick
  a user running within a corporate network into visiting a site that
  attempts to load a video from a previously leaked location on the
  corporation's intranet. If such a video included confidential plans
  for a new product, then being able to read the subtitles would
  present a serious confidentiality breach.</p>

  <h5 id="best-practices-for-authors-using-media-elements"><span class="secno">4.8.10.18 </span>Best practices for authors using media elements</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Playing audio and video resources on small devices such as
  set-top boxes or mobile phones is often constrained by limited
  hardware resources in the device. For example, a device might only
  support three simultaneous videos. For this reason, it is a good
  practice to release resources held by <a href="#media-element" title="media
  element">media elements</a> when they are done playing, either by
  being very careful about removing all references to the element and
  allowing it to be garbage collected, or, even better, by removing
  the element's <code title="attr-media-src"><a href="#attr-media-src">src</a></code> attribute and
  any <code><a href="#the-source-element">source</a></code> element descendants, and invoking the
  element's <code title="dom-media-load"><a href="#dom-media-load">load()</a></code> method.</p>

  <p>Similarly, when the playback rate is not exactly 1.0, hardware,
  software, or format limitations can cause video frames to be dropped
  and audio to be choppy or muted.</p>


  <div class="impl">

  <h5 id="best-practices-for-implementors-of-media-elements"><span class="secno">4.8.10.19 </span>Best practices for implementors of media elements</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>How accurately various aspects of the <a href="#media-element">media element</a> API are implemented is
  considered a quality-of-implementation issue.</p>

  <p>For example, when implementing the <code title="attr-media-buffered">buffered</code> attribute,
  how precise an implementation reports the ranges that have been buffered depends on how carefully
  the user agent inspects the data. Since the API reports ranges as times, but the data is obtained
  in byte streams, a user agent receiving a variable-bit-rate stream might only be able to determine
  precise times by actually decoding all of the data. User agents aren't required to do this,
  however; they can instead return estimates (e.g. based on the average bit rate seen so far) which
  get revised as more information becomes available.</p>

  <p>As a general rule, user agents are urged to be conservative rather than optimistic. For
  example, it would be bad to report that everything had been buffered when it had not.</p>

  <p>Another quality-of-implementation issue would be playing a video backwards when the codec is
  designed only for forward playback (e.g. there aren't many key frames, and they are far apart, and
  the intervening frames only have deltas from the previous frame). User agents could do a poor job,
  e.g. only showing key frames; however, better implementations would do more work and thus do a
  better job, e.g. actually decoding parts of the video forwards, storing the complete frames, and
  then playing the frames backwards.</p>

  <p>Similarly, while implementations are allowed to drop buffered data at any time (there is no
  requirement that a user agent keep all the media data obtained for the lifetime of the media
  element), it is again a quality of implementation issue: user agents with sufficient resources to
  keep all the data around are encouraged to do so, as this allows for a better user experience. For
  example, if the user is watching a live stream, a user agent could allow the user only to view the
  live video; however, a better user agent would buffer everything and allow the user to seek
  through the earlier material, pause it, play it forwards and backwards, etc.</p>

  <p>When multiple tracks are synchronised with a <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>, it is possible for
  scripts to add and remove media elements from the <code><a href="#mediacontroller">MediaController</a></code>'s list of
  <a href="#slaved-media-elements">slaved media elements</a>, even while these tracks are playing. How smoothly the media
  plays back in such situations is another quality-of-implementation issue.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>When a <a href="#media-element">media element</a> that is paused is <a href="#remove-an-element-from-a-document" title="remove an element from a
  document">removed from a document</a> and not reinserted before the next time the <a href="#event-loop">event
  loop</a> spins, implementations that are resource constrained are encouraged to take that
  opportunity to release all hardware resources (like video planes, networking resources, and data
  buffers) used by the <a href="#media-element">media element</a>. (User agents still have to keep track of the
  playback position and so forth, though, in case playback is later restarted.)</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element provides scripts with a resolution-dependent bitmap canvas,
  which can be used for rendering graphs, game graphics, art, or other visual images on the fly.</p>

  <p class="auth">Authors should not use the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element in a document when a more suitable
  element is available. For example, it is inappropriate to use a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element to
  render a page heading: if the desired presentation of the heading is graphically intense, it
  should be marked up using appropriate elements (typically <code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code>) and then styled using
  CSS and supporting technologies such as XBL.</p>

  <p class="auth">When authors use the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element, they must also provide content that, when
  presented to the user, conveys essentially the same function or purpose as the
  <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code>' bitmap. This content may be placed as content of the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code>
  element. The contents of the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element, if any, are the element's <a href="#fallback-content">fallback
  content</a>.</p>

  <p>In interactive visual media, if <a href="#concept-n-script" title="concept-n-script">scripting is enabled</a> for
  the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element, and if support for <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> elements has been enabled,
  the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> <a href="#embedded-content-2">embedded content</a> consisting
  of a dynamically created image, the element's bitmap.</p>

  <p>In non-interactive, static, visual media, if the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element has been
  previously associated with a rendering context (e.g. if the page was viewed in an interactive
  visual medium and is now being printed, or if some script that ran during the page layout process
  painted on the element), then the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a>
  <a href="#embedded-content-2">embedded content</a> with the element's current bitmap and size. Otherwise, the element
  represents its <a href="#fallback-content">fallback content</a> instead.</p>

  <p>In non-visual media, and in visual media if <a href="#concept-n-noscript" title="concept-n-noscript">scripting is
  disabled</a> for the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element or if support for <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> elements

  <!-- CANVAS-FOCUS-FALLBACK -->
  <p class="auth">When a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> <a href="#embedded-content-2">embedded content</a>, the
  user can still focus descendants of the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element (in the <a href="#fallback-content">fallback
  content</a>). When an element is focused, it is the target of keyboard interaction events (even
  though the element itself is not visible). This allows authors to make an interactive canvas
  keyboard-accessible: authors should have a one-to-one mapping of interactive regions to focusable
  elements in the <a href="#fallback-content">fallback content</a>. (Focus has no effect on mouse interaction events.)

  <p>There are two ways for a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element to acquire a rendering context: the

  rendering context can be taken out of the <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element's hands and passed to a
  <code><a href="#canvasproxy">CanvasProxy</a></code> object, which itself can then be assigned a rendering context using its

  <h5 id="color-spaces-and-color-correction"><span class="secno">4.8.11.2 </span>Color spaces and color correction</h5>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> APIs must perform color correction at only two points: when rendering
  images with their own gamma correction and color space information onto a bitmap, to convert the
  image to the color space used by the bitmaps (e.g. using the 2D Context's <code title="dom-context-2d-drawImage">drawImage()</code> method with an <code><a href="#htmlimageelement">HTMLImageElement</a></code>
  object), and when rendering the actual canvas bitmap to the output device.</p>

  <p class="note">Thus, in the 2D context, colors used to draw shapes onto the canvas will exactly
  match colors obtained through the <code title="dom-context-2d-getImageDataHD">getImageDataHD()</code> method.</p>

  <p>The <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURL"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurl">toDataURL()</a></code> and <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURLHD"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurlhd">toDataURLHD()</a></code> methods must not include color space
  information in the resources they return. Where the output format allows it, the color of pixels
  in resources created by <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURL"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurl">toDataURL()</a></code> must match those
  returned by the <code title="dom-context-2d-getImageData">getImageData()</code> method, and the
  color of pixels in resources created by <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURLHD"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurlhd">toDataURLHD()</a></code>
  must match those returned by the <code title="dom-context-2d-getImageDataHD">getImageDataHD()</code> method.</p>

  <p>In user agents that support CSS, the color space used by a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element must
  match the color space used for processing any colors for that element in CSS.</p>

  <p>The gamma correction and color space information of images must be handled in such a way that
  an image rendered directly using an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element would use the same colors as one
  painted on a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element that is then itself rendered. Furthermore, the rendering
  of images that have no color correction information (such as those returned by the <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURL"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurl">toDataURL()</a></code> method) must be rendered with no color
  correction.</p>

  <p class="note">Thus, in the 2D context, calling the <code title="dom-context-2d-drawImage">drawImage()</code> method to render the output of the <code title="dom-canvas-toDataURLHD"><a href="#dom-canvas-todataurlhd">toDataURLHD()</a></code> method to the canvas, given the appropriate
  dimensions, has no visible effect.</p>

  <h5 id="serializing-bitmaps-to-a-file"><span class="secno">4.8.11.3 </span>Serializing bitmaps to a file</h5>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>When a user agent is to create <dfn id="a-serialization-of-the-bitmap-as-a-file">a serialization of the bitmap as a file</dfn>, optionally
  with some given <var title="">arguments</var>, and optionally with a <var title="">native</var>
  flag set, it must create an image file in the format given by the first value of <var title="">arguments</var>, or, if there are no <var title="">arguments</var>, in the PNG format. <a href="#refsPNG">[PNG]</a></p>

  <p>If the <var title="">native</var> flag is set, or if the bitmap has one pixel per coordinate
  space unit, then the image file must have the same pixel data (before compression, if applicable)
  as the bitmap, and if the file format used supports encoding resolution metadata, the resolution
  of that bitmap (device pixels per coordinate space units being interpreted as image pixels per CSS
  pixel) must be given as well.</p>

  <p>Otherwise, the image file's pixel data must be the bitmap's pixel data scaled to one image
  pixel per coordinate space unit, and if the file format used supports encoding resolution
  metadata, the resolution must be given as 96dpi (one image pixel per CSS pixel).</p>

  <p>If <var title="">arguments</var> is not empty, the first value must be interpreted as a <a href="#mime-type" title="MIME type">MIME type</a> giving the format to use. If the type has any parameters, it
  must be treated as not supported.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, the value "<code>image/png</code>" would mean to generate a PNG
  image, the value "<code>image/jpeg</code>" would mean to generate a JPEG image, and the value
  "<code>image/svg+xml</code>" would mean to generate an SVG image (which would require that the
  user agent track how the bitmap was generated, an unlikely, though potentially awesome,
  feature).</p>

  <p>User agents must support PNG ("<code>image/png</code>"). User agents may support other types.
  If the user agent does not support the requested type, it must create the file using the PNG
  format. <a href="#refsPNG">[PNG]</a></p>

  <p>User agents must <a href="#converted-to-ascii-lowercase" title="converted to ASCII lowercase">convert the provided type to ASCII
  lowercase</a> before establishing if they support that type.</p>

  <p>For image types that do not support an alpha channel, the serialized image must be the bitmap
  image composited onto a solid black background using the source-over operator.</p>

  <p>If the first argument in <var title="">arguments</var> gives a type corresponding to one of the
  types given in the first column of the following table, and the user agent supports that type,
  then the subsequent arguments, if any, must be treated as described in the second cell of that
  row.</p>

  </div>

  <table id="canvas-serialization-arguments">
   <caption>Arguments for serialization methods</caption>
   <thead>
    <tr> <th> Type </th><th> Other arguments </th><th> Reference
   </th></tr></thead><tbody>
    <tr>
     <td> <code>image/jpeg</code>
     </td><td> The second argument<span class="impl">, if it</span> is a number in the range 0.0 to 1.0
     inclusive<span class="impl">, must be</span> treated as the desired quality level. <span class="impl">If it is not a number or is outside that range, the user agent must use its
     default value, as if the argument had been omitted.</span>
     </td><td> <a href="#refsJPEG">[JPEG]</a>
  </td></tr></tbody></table>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>For the purposes of these rules, an argument is considered to be a number if it is converted to
  an IDL double value by the rules for handling arguments of type <code title="">any</code> in the
  Web IDL specification. <a href="#refsWEBIDL">[WEBIDL]</a></p>

  <p>Other arguments must be ignored and must not cause the user agent to throw an exception. A
  future version of this specification will probably define other parameters to be passed to these
  methods to allow authors to more carefully control compression settings, image metadata, etc.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> either a hyperlink with some text and a
  corresponding area on an <a href="#image-map">image map</a>, or a dead area on an image map.</p>

  <p>An <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element with a parent node must have a <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> element ancestor
  or a <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> element ancestor.</p>

  <p>If the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element has an <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code>
  attribute, then the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element represents a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a>. In this case,
  the <dfn id="attr-area-alt" title="attr-area-alt"><code>alt</code></dfn> attribute must be present. It specifies the
  text of the hyperlink. Its value must be text that, when presented with the texts specified for
  the other hyperlinks of the <a href="#image-map">image map</a>, and with the alternative text of the image,
  but without the image itself, provides the user with the same kind of choice as the hyperlink
  would when used without its text but with its shape applied to the image. The <code title="attr-area-alt"><a href="#attr-area-alt">alt</a></code> attribute may be left blank if there is another <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>
  element in the same <a href="#image-map">image map</a> that points to the same resource and has a non-blank
  <code title="attr-area-alt"><a href="#attr-area-alt">alt</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>If the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element has no <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code>
  attribute, then the area represented by the element cannot be selected, and the <code title="attr-area-alt"><a href="#attr-area-alt">alt</a></code> attribute must be omitted.</p>

  <p>In both cases, the <code title="attr-area-shape"><a href="#attr-area-shape">shape</a></code> and <code title="attr-area-coords"><a href="#attr-area-coords">coords</a></code> attributes specify the area.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-area-shape" title="attr-area-shape"><code>shape</code></dfn> attribute is an <a href="#enumerated-attribute">enumerated

  <p>An <dfn id="image-map">image map</dfn> allows geometric areas on an image to be
  associated with <a href="#hyperlink" title="hyperlink">hyperlinks</a>.</p>

  <p>An image, in the form of an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element or an
  <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element representing an image, may be associated
  with an image map (in the form of a <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> element) by
  specifying a <dfn id="attr-hyperlink-usemap" title="attr-hyperlink-usemap"><code>usemap</code></dfn> attribute on
  the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element. The <code title="attr-hyperlink-usemap"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-usemap">usemap</a></code> attribute, if specified,
  must be a <a href="#valid-hash-name-reference">valid hash-name reference</a> to a
  <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> element.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider an image that looks as follows:</p>

   <p>If we wanted just the colored areas to be clickable, we could
   do it as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;
 Please select a shape:
 &lt;img src="shapes.png" usemap="#shapes"
      alt="Four shapes are available: a red hollow box, a green circle, a blue triangle, and a yellow four-pointed star."&gt;
 &lt;map name="shapes"&gt;
  &lt;area shape=rect coords="50,50,100,100"&gt; &lt;!-- the hole in the red box --&gt;
  &lt;area shape=rect coords="25,25,125,125" href="red.html" alt="Red box."&gt;

  <p>If an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element or an <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element
  representing an image has a <code title="attr-hyperlink-usemap"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-usemap">usemap</a></code> attribute specified,
  user agents must process it as follows:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>First, <a href="#rules-for-parsing-a-hash-name-reference">rules for parsing a hash-name reference</a>
   to a <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> element must be followed. This will return
   either an element (the <var title="">map</var>) or null.</p></li>

   <li><p>If that returned null, then abort these steps. The image is
   not associated with an image map after all.</p></li>

   <li><p>Otherwise, the user agent must collect all the
   <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements that are descendants of the <var title="">map</var>. Let those be the <var title="">areas</var>.</p></li>

  </ol>

  <p>Having obtained the list of <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements that form
  the image map (the <var title="">areas</var>), interactive user
  agents must process the list in one of two ways.</p>

  <p>If the user agent intends to show the text that the
  <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element represents, then it must use the following
  steps.</p>

  <p class="note">In user agents that do not support images, or that
  have images disabled, <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> elements cannot represent
  images, and thus this section never applies (the <a href="#fallback-content">fallback
  content</a> is shown instead). The following steps therefore only
  apply to <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> elements.</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>Remove all the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements in <var title="">areas</var> that have no <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute.</p></li>

   <li><p>Remove all the <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements in <var title="">areas</var> that have no <code title="attr-area-alt"><a href="#attr-area-alt">alt</a></code> attribute, or whose <code title="attr-area-alt"><a href="#attr-area-alt">alt</a></code> attribute's value is the empty

   <p>In this context, user agents may represent <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> and

  <p>If the user agent intends to show the image and allow interaction

  <p>Each <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element in <var title="">areas</var> must

  <p>Pointing device interaction with an image associated with a set

  point. User agents may also allow individual <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>
  elements representing <a href="#hyperlink" title="hyperlink">hyperlinks</a> to
  be selected and activated (e.g. using a keyboard).</p>

  <p class="note">Because a <code><a href="#the-map-element">map</a></code> element (and its

  <p>The specified dimensions given may differ from the dimensions

  <p>Tables should not be used as layout aids.

  Historically, many Web authors have tables in HTML as a way to
  control their page layout making it difficult to extract tabular
  data from such documents.

  In particular, users of accessibility tools, like screen readers,
  are likely to find it very difficult to navigate pages with tables
  used for layout.

  If a table is to be used for layout it must be marked with the
  attribute role="presentation" for a user agent to properly represent
  the table to an assistive technology and to properly convey the
  intent of the author to tools that wish to extract tabular data from
  the document.</p>

<!--FORK-->

  <p class="note">There are a variety of alternatives to using HTML
  tables for layout, primarily using CSS positioning and the CSS table
  model. <a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a></p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-table-border" title="attr-table-border"><code>border</code></dfn>
  attribute may be specified on a <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element to
  explicitly indicate that the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element is not being
  used for layout purposes. If specified, the attribute's value must
  either be the empty string or the value "<code title="">1</code>".
  The attribute is used by certain user agents as an indication that
  borders should be drawn around cells of the table.</p>

  <p>Tables can be complicated to understand and navigate. To help
  users with this, user agents should clearly delineate cells in a
  table from each other, unless the user agent has classified the
  table as a

  <p class="note">Authors <span class="impl">and implementors</span>

  described below to make tables easier to navigate for users.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents, especially those that do table analysis on arbitrary
  content, are encouraged to find heuristics to determine which tables
  actually contain data and which are merely being used for layout.
  This specification does not define a precise heuristic, but the
  following are suggested as possible indicators:</p>

  <table>
   <thead>
    <tr>
     <th>Feature
     </th><th>Indication

    <tr>
     <td>The use of the <code title="attr-aria-role"><a href="#attr-aria-role">role</a></code> attribute with the value <code title="attr-aria-role-presentation">presentation</code>

     </td><td>Probably a layout table
   </td></tr></tbody><tbody>
    <tr>
     <td>The use of <code><a href="#the-caption-element">caption</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-thead-element">thead</a></code>, or <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> elements        
     </td><td>Probably a non-layout table
    </td></tr><tr>
     <td>The use of the <code title="attr-tdth-headers"><a href="#attr-tdth-headers">headers</a></code> and <code title="attr-th-scope"><a href="#attr-th-scope">scope</a></code> attributes

  <h5 id="table-descriptions-techniques"><span class="secno">4.9.1.1 </span>Techniques for describing tables</h5>

  <p class="auth" id="table-descriptions">For tables that consist of more than just
  a grid of cells with headers in the first row and headers in the
  first column, and for any table in general where the reader might
  have difficulty understanding the content, authors should include
  explanatory information introducing the table. This information is
  useful for all users, but is especially useful for users who cannot
  see the table, e.g. users of screen readers.</p>

  <p>Such explanatory information should introduce the purpose of the
  table, outline its basic cell structure, highlight any trends or
  patterns, and generally teach the user how to use the table.</p>

  <!--Describing the conclusions of the data in a table is useful to
  everyone; explaining how to read the table, if not obvious from the
  headers alone, is useful to everyone; describing the structure of
  the table, if it is easy to grasp visually, might not be useful to
  everyone, but it might also not be useful to users who can quickly
  navigate the table with an accessibility tool.-->

  <p>For instance, the following table:</p>

  <table>
   <caption>Characteristics with positive and negative sides</caption>
   <thead>
    <tr>
     <th id="n"> Negative
     </th><th> Characteristic
     </th><th> Positive
   </th></tr></thead><tbody>
    <tr>
     <td headers="n r1"> Sad
     </td><th id="r1"> Mood
     </th><td> Happy
    </td></tr><tr>
     <td headers="n r2"> Failing
     </td><th id="r2"> Grade
     </th><td> Passing
  </td></tr></tbody></table>

  <p>...might benefit from a description explaining the way the table
  is laid out, something like "Characteristics are given in the
  second column, with the negative side in the left column and the
  positive side in the right column".</p>

  <p>There are a variety of ways to include this information, such as:</p>

  <dl>
<!-- FORK -->
   <dt>In prose, surrounding the table</dt>

   <dd>
    <div class="example"><pre>&lt;p id="summary"&gt;In the following table, characteristics are 
given in the second column, with the negative side in the left column and the positive
side in the right column.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table aria-describedby="summary"&gt;
 &lt;caption&gt;Characteristics with positive and negative sides&lt;/caption&gt;
 &lt;thead&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;th id="n"&gt; Negative
   &lt;th&gt; Characteristic
   &lt;th&gt; Positive
 &lt;tbody&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td headers="n r1"&gt; Sad
   &lt;th id="r1"&gt; Mood
   &lt;td&gt; Happy

   &lt;td headers="n r2"&gt; Failing

   <p class="note">In the example above the 
   <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-describedby">
   <code title="attr-aria-*">aria-describedby</code></a> attribute is used to explicitly associate the information

  <p class="auth">Authors may also use other techniques, or combinations of the
  above techniques, as appropriate.</p>

  <p>The best option, of course, rather than writing a description
  explaining the way the table is laid out, is to adjust the table
  such that no explanation is needed.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the case of the table used in the examples above, a simple
   rearrangement of the table so that the headers are on the top and
   left sides removes the need for an explanation as well as removing
   the need for the use of <code title="attr-tdth-headers"><a href="#attr-tdth-headers">headers</a></code> attributes:</p>

  <h5 id="table-layout-techniques"><span class="secno">4.9.1.2 </span>Techniques for table design</h5>

  <p>Good table design is key to making tables more readable and usable.</p>

  <p>In visual media, providing column and row borders and alternating
  row backgrounds can be very effective to make complicated tables
  more readable.</p>

  <p>For tables with large volumes of numeric content, using
  monospaced fonts can help users see patterns, especially in
  situations where a user agent does not render the borders.
  (Unfortunately, for historical reasons, not rendering borders on
  tables is a common default.)</p>

  <p>In speech media, table cells can be distinguished by reporting
  the corresponding headers before reading the cell's contents, and by
  allowing users to navigate the table in a grid fashion, rather than
  serializing the entire contents of the table in source order.</p>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to use CSS to achieve these effects.</p>

  <div class="impl">
  <p>User agents are encouraged to render tables using these
  techniques whenever the page does not use CSS and the table is not
  classified as a layout table.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-caption-element">caption</a></code> element takes part in the <a href="#table-model">table model</a>.</p>

  </div>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element is the only content in a <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element other

  the <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code>.</p>

  <p>A caption can introduce context for a table, making it significantly easier to understand.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider, for instance, the following table:</p>

   <table class="dice-example">
    <tbody><tr> <th>   </th><th> 1 </th><th> 2 </th><th> 3 </th><th> 4 </th><th> 5 </th><th> 6

    </td></tr><tr> <th> 6 </th><td> 7 </td><td> 8 </td><td> 9 </td><td> 10 </td><td> 11 </td><td> 12
   </td></tr></tbody></table>

   <p>In the abstract, this table is not clear. However, with a caption giving the table's number
   (for reference in the main prose) and explaining its use, it makes more sense:</p>

   <pre>&lt;caption&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Table 1.
&lt;p&gt;This table shows the total score obtained from rolling two
six-sided dice. The first row represents the value of the first die,
the first column the value of the second die. The total is given in
the cell that corresponds to the values of the two dice.
&lt;/caption&gt;</pre>

   <p>This provides the user with more context:</p>

  <p>The various table elements and their content attributes together define the <dfn id="table-model">table
  model</dfn>.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-table" title="concept-table">table</dfn> consists of cells aligned on a two-dimensional grid of
  <dfn id="concept-slots" title="concept-slots">slots</dfn> with coordinates (<var title="">x</var>, <var title="">y</var>). The grid is finite, and is either empty or has one or more slots. If the grid
  has one or more slots, then the <var title="">x</var> coordinates are always in the range <span title="">0 ≤ <var title="">x</var> &lt; <var title="">x<sub title="">width</sub></var></span>, and the <var title="">y</var> coordinates are always in the
  range <span title="">0 ≤ <var title="">y</var> &lt; <var title="">y<sub title="">height</sub></var></span>. If one or both of <var title="">x<sub title="">width</sub></var> and <var title="">y<sub title="">height</sub></var> are zero, then the
  table is empty (has no slots). Tables correspond to <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> elements.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-cell" title="concept-cell">cell</dfn> is a set of slots anchored at a slot (<var title="">cell<sub title="">x</sub></var>, <var title="">cell<sub title="">y</sub></var>), and with
  a particular <var title="">width</var> and <var title="">height</var> such that the cell covers
  all the slots with coordinates (<var title="">x</var>, <var title="">y</var>) where <span title=""><var title="">cell<sub title="">x</sub></var> ≤ <var title="">x</var> &lt; <var title="">cell<sub title="">x</sub></var>+<var title="">width</var></span> and <span title=""><var title="">cell<sub title="">y</sub></var> ≤ <var title="">y</var> &lt; <var title="">cell<sub title="">y</sub></var>+<var title="">height</var></span>. Cells can either be <em>data cells</em>
  or <em>header cells</em>. Data cells correspond to <code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code> elements, and header cells
  correspond to <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> elements. Cells of both types can have zero or more associated
  header cells.</p>

  <p>It is possible, in certain error cases, for two cells to occupy the same slot.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-row" title="concept-row">row</dfn> is a complete set of slots from <span title=""><var title="">x</var>=0</span> to <span title=""><var title="">x</var>=<var title="">x<sub title="">width</sub></var>-1</span>, for a particular value of <var title="">y</var>. Rows usually

  can have some implied <a href="#concept-row" title="concept-row">rows</a> at the end in some cases involving
  <a href="#concept-cell" title="concept-cell">cells</a> spanning multiple rows.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-column" title="concept-column">column</dfn> is a complete set of slots from <span title=""><var title="">y</var>=0</span> to <span title=""><var title="">y</var>=<var title="">y<sub title="">height</sub></var>-1</span>, for a particular value of <var title="">x</var>. Columns can
  correspond to <code><a href="#the-col-element">col</a></code> elements. In the absence of <code><a href="#the-col-element">col</a></code> elements, columns are
  implied.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="concept-row-group" title="concept-row-group">row group</dfn> is a set of <a href="#concept-row" title="concept-row">rows</a> anchored at a slot (0, <var title="">group<sub title="">y</sub></var>) with a particular <var title="">height</var> such that the row group
  covers all the slots with coordinates (<var title="">x</var>, <var title="">y</var>) where <span title="">0 ≤ <var title="">x</var> &lt; <var title="">x<sub title="">width</sub></var></span> and <span title=""><var title="">group<sub title="">y</sub></var> ≤ <var title="">y</var> &lt; <var title="">group<sub title="">y</sub></var>+<var title="">height</var></span>. Row groups correspond to

  <p>To make a column sortable in a <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> with a <code><a href="#the-thead-element">thead</a></code>, the column needs
  to have <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> element that does not <a href="#attr-tdth-colspan" title="attr-tdth-colspan">span multiple
  columns</a> in a <code><a href="#the-thead-element">thead</a></code> above any rows that it is to sort.</p>

  <p>To make a column sortable in a <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> without a <code><a href="#the-thead-element">thead</a></code>, the column
  needs to have <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> element that does not <a href="#attr-tdth-colspan" title="attr-tdth-colspan">span multiple
  columns</a> in the first <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> element of the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code>, where that
  <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> element is not in a <code><a href="#the-tfoot-element">tfoot</a></code>.</p>

  <p>When the user selects a column by which to sort, the user agent sets the <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code>
  element's <dfn id="attr-th-sorted" title="attr-th-sorted"><code>sorted</code></dfn> attribute. This attribute can also
  be set manually, to indicate that the table should be automatically sorted, even when scripts
  modify the page on when the page is loaded.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-th-sorted"><a href="#attr-th-sorted">sorted</a></code> attribute, if specified, must have a value that
  is a <a href="#set-of-space-separated-tokens">set of space-separated tokens</a> consisting of optionally a token whose value is an
  <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for the string "<dfn id="attr-th-sorted-reversed" title="attr-th-sorted-reversed"><code>reversed</code></dfn>", and optionally a token whose value
  is a <a href="#valid-non-negative-integer">valid non-negative integer</a> greater than zero, in either order.</p>

  <p class="note">In other words, ignoring spaces and case, the <code title="attr-th-sorted"><a href="#attr-th-sorted">sorted</a></code> attribute's value can be empty, "<code title="">reversed</code>", "<code title="">1</code>", "<code title="">reversed 1</code>", or
  "<code title="">1 reversed</code>", where "1" is any number equal to or greater than 1.</p>

  <p>While one or more <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> elements in the table have a <code title="attr-th-sorted"><a href="#attr-th-sorted">sorted</a></code> attribute, the user agent will keep the table's data rows
  sorted. The value of the attribute controls how the column is used in determining the sort order.
  The <code title="attr-th-sorted-reversed"><a href="#attr-th-sorted-reversed">reversed</a></code> keyword means that the <dfn id="column-sort-direction">column sort
  direction</dfn> is <i>reversed</i>, rather than <i>normal</i>, which is the default if the keyword
  is omitted. The number, if present, indicates the <dfn id="column-key-ordinality">column key ordinality</dfn>; if the number
  is omitted, the column is the primary key, as if the value 1 had been specified.</p>

  <p class="note">Thus, <code title="">sorted="1"</code> indicates the table's primary key, <code title="">sorted="2"</code> its secondary key, and so forth.</p>

  <h3 id="forms"><span class="secno">4.10 </span>Forms</h3>

  <h4 id="introduction-1"><span class="secno">4.10.1 </span>Introduction</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>A form is a component of a Web page that has form controls, such as text fields, buttons,
  checkboxes, range controls, or color pickers. A user can interact with such a form, providing data
  that can then be sent to the server for further processing (e.g. returning the results of a search
  or calculation). No client-side scripting is needed in many cases, though an API is available so
  that scripts can augment the user experience or use forms for purposes other than submitting data
  to a server.</p>

  <p>Writing a form consists of several steps, which can be performed in any order: writing the user
  interface, implementing the server-side processing, and configuring the user interface to
  communicate with the server.</p>


  <h5 id="writing-a-form's-user-interface"><span class="secno">4.10.1.1 </span>Writing a form's user interface</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>For the purposes of this brief introduction, we will create a pizza ordering form.</p>

  <p>Any form starts with a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element, inside which are placed the controls. Most
  controls are represented by the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element, which by default provides a one-line
  text field. To label a control, the <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element is used; the label text and the
  control itself go inside the <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element. Each part of a form is considered a
  <a href="#paragraph">paragraph</a>, and is typically separated from other parts using <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements.
  Putting this together, here is how one might ask for the customer's name:</p>

  <pre><strong>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</strong></pre>

  <p>To let the user select the size of the pizza, we can use a set of radio buttons. Radio buttons
  also use the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element, this time with a <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute with the value <code title="attr-input-type-radio"><a href="#radio-button-state-(type=radio)">radio</a></code>. To make the radio buttons work as a group, they are
  given a common name using the <code title="attr-fe-name"><a href="#attr-fe-name">name</a></code> attribute. To group a batch
  of controls together, such as, in this case, the radio buttons, one can use the
  <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code> element. The title of such a group of controls is given by the first element
  in the <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code>, which has to be a <code><a href="#the-legend-element">legend</a></code> element.</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
<strong> &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;</strong>
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p class="note">Changes from the previous step are highlighted.</p>

  <p>To pick toppings, we can use checkboxes. These use the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute with the value <code title="attr-input-type-checkbox"><a href="#checkbox-state-(type=checkbox)">checkbox</a></code>:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
<strong> &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;</strong>
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>The pizzeria for which this form is being written is always making mistakes, so it needs a way
  to contact the customer. For this purpose, we can use form controls specifically for telephone
  numbers (<code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements with their <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code>
  attribute set to <code title="attr-input-type-tel"><a href="#telephone-state-(type=tel)">tel</a></code>) and e-mail addresses
  (<code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements with their <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute set to
  <code title="attr-input-type-email"><a href="#e-mail-state-(type=email)">email</a></code>):</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
<strong> &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</strong>
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>We can use an <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element with its <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code>
  attribute set to <code title="attr-input-type-time"><a href="#time-state-(type=time)">time</a></code> to ask for a delivery time. Many
  of these form controls have attributes to control exactly what values can be specified; in this
  case, three attributes of particular interest are <code title="attr-input-min"><a href="#attr-input-min">min</a></code>, <code title="attr-input-max"><a href="#attr-input-max">max</a></code>, and <code title="attr-input-step"><a href="#attr-input-step">step</a></code>. These set the
  minimum time, the maximum time, and the interval between allowed values (in seconds). This
  pizzeria only delivers between 11am and 9pm, and doesn't promise anything better than 15 minute
  increments, which we can mark up as follows:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
<strong> &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</strong>
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> element can be used to provide a free-form text field. In this
  instance, we are going to use it to provide a space for the customer to give delivery
  instructions:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
<strong> &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Delivery instructions: &lt;textarea&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</strong>
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>Finally, to make the form submittable we use the <code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code> element:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Delivery instructions: &lt;textarea&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
<strong> &lt;p&gt;&lt;button&gt;Submit order&lt;/button&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</strong>
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The exact details for writing a server-side processor are out of scope for this specification.
  For the purposes of this introduction, we will assume that the script at <code title="">https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi</code> is configured to accept submissions using the
  <code title="attr-fs-enctype-urlencoded"><a href="#attr-fs-enctype-urlencoded">application/x-www-form-urlencoded</a></code> format,
  expecting the following parameters sent in an HTTP POST body:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt><code title="">custtel</code></dt>

  <h5 id="configuring-a-form-to-communicate-with-a-server"><span class="secno">4.10.1.3 </span>Configuring a form to communicate with a server</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Form submissions are exposed to servers in a variety of ways, most commonly as HTTP GET or POST
  requests. To specify the exact method used, the <code title="attr-fs-method"><a href="#attr-fs-method">method</a></code>
  attribute is specified on the <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element. This doesn't specify how the form data is
  encoded, though; to specify that, you use the <code title="attr-fs-enctype"><a href="#attr-fs-enctype">enctype</a></code>
  attribute. You also have to specify the <a href="#url">URL</a> of the service that will handle the
  submitted data, using the <code title="attr-fs-action"><a href="#attr-fs-action">action</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>For each form control you want submitted, you then have to give a name that will be used to
  refer to the data in the submission. We already specified the name for the group of radio buttons;
  the same attribute (<code title="attr-fe-name"><a href="#attr-fe-name">name</a></code>) also specifies the submission name.
  Radio buttons can be distinguished from each other in the submission by giving them different
  values, using the <code title="attr-input-value"><a href="#attr-input-value">value</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>Multiple controls can have the same name; for example, here we give all the checkboxes the same
  name, and the server distinguishes which checkbox was checked by seeing which values are submitted
  with that name — like the radio buttons, they are also given unique values with the <code title="attr-input-value"><a href="#attr-input-value">value</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>Given the settings in the previous section, this all becomes:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form<strong> method="post"
      enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      action="https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi"</strong>&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input<strong> name="custname"</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel<strong> name="custtel"</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email<strong> name="custemail"</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size<strong> value="medium"</strong>&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size<strong> value="large"</strong>&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox<strong> name="topping" value="bacon"</strong>&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox<strong> name="topping" value="cheese"</strong>&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox<strong> name="topping" value="onion"</strong>&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox<strong> name="topping" value="mushroom"</strong>&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900"<strong> name="delivery"</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Delivery instructions: &lt;textarea<strong> name="comments"</strong>&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;button&gt;Submit order&lt;/button&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p class="note">There is no particular significance to the way some
  of the attributes have their values quoted and others don't. The
  HTML syntax allows a variety of equally valid ways to specify
  attributes, as discussed <a href="#syntax-attributes" title="syntax-attributes">in the
  syntax section</a>.</p>

  <p>For example, if the customer entered "Denise Lawrence" as their
  name, "555-321-8642" as their telephone number, did not specify an
  e-mail address, asked for a medium-sized pizza, selected the Extra
  Cheese and Mushroom toppings, entered a delivery time of 7pm, and
  left the delivery instructions text field blank, the user agent
  would submit the following to the online Web service:</p>

  <pre>custname=Denise+Lawrence&amp;custtel=555-321-8624&amp;custemail=&amp;size=medium&amp;topping=cheese&amp;topping=mushroom&amp;delivery=19%3A00&amp;comments=</pre>


  <h5 id="client-side-form-validation"><span class="secno">4.10.1.4 </span>Client-side form validation</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Forms can be annotated in such a way that the user agent will
  check the user's input before the form is submitted. The server
  still has to verify the input is valid (since hostile users can
  easily bypass the form validation), but it allows the user to avoid
  the wait incurred by having the server be the sole checker of the
  user's input.</p>

  <p>The simplest annotation is the <code title="attr-input-required"><a href="#attr-input-required">required</a></code> attribute, which can be
  specified on <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements to indicate that the form
  is not to be submitted until a value is given. By adding this
  attribute to the customer name, pizza size, and delivery time
  fields, we allow the user agent to notify the user when the user
  submits the form without filling in those fields:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form method="post"
      enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      action="https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input name="custname"<strong> required</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel name="custtel"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email name="custemail"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size<strong> required</strong> value="small"&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size<strong> required</strong> value="medium"&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size<strong> required</strong> value="large"&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Toppings &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="bacon"&gt; Bacon &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="cheese"&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="onion"&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="mushroom"&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900" name="delivery"<strong> required</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Delivery instructions: &lt;textarea name="comments"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;button&gt;Submit order&lt;/button&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>It is also possible to limit the length of the input, using the
  <code title="attr-fe-maxlength"><a href="#attr-fe-maxlength">maxlength</a></code> attribute. By
  adding this to the <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> element, we can limit users
  to 1000 characters, preventing them from writing huge essays to the
  busy delivery drivers instead of staying focused and to the
  point:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form method="post"
      enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      action="https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input name="custname" required&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Telephone: &lt;input type=tel name="custtel"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;E-mail address: &lt;input type=email name="custemail"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="onion"&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="mushroom"&gt; Mushroom &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Preferred delivery time: &lt;input type=time min="11:00" max="21:00" step="900" name="delivery" required&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Delivery instructions: &lt;textarea name="comments"<strong> maxlength=1000</strong>&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;button&gt;Submit order&lt;/button&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p class="note">When a form is submitted, <code title="event-invalid">invalid</code> events are
  fired at each form control that is invalid, and then at the <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element itself. This
  can be useful for displaying a summary of the problems with the form, since typically the browser
  itself will only report one problem at a time.</p>



  <h5 id="enabling-client-side-automatic-filling-of-form-controls"><span class="secno">4.10.1.5 </span>Enabling client-side automatic filling of form controls</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Some browsers attempt to aid the user by automatically filling
  form controls rather than having the user reenter their information
  each time. For example, a field asking for the user's telephone
  number can be automatically filled with the user's phone number.</p>

  <p>To help the user agent with this, we can tell it what the field
  is using the <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code>
  attribute. In the case of this form, we have three fields that can
  be usefully annotated in this way: the information about who the
  pizza is to be delivered to. Adding this information looks like
  this:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form method="post"
      enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      action="https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi"&gt;

 &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; Pizza Size &lt;/legend&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size required value="small"&gt; Small &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size required value="medium"&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  <h5 id="improving-the-user-experience-on-mobile-devices"><span class="secno">4.10.1.6 </span>Improving the user experience on mobile devices</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Some devices, in particular those with on-screen keyboards and those in locales with languages
  with many characters (e.g. Japanese), can provide the user with multiple input modalities. For
  example, when typing in a credit card number the user may wish to only see keys for digits 0-9,
  while when typing in their name they may wish to see a form field that by default capitalises each
  word.</p>

  <p>Using the <code title="attr-fe-inputmode"><a href="#attr-fe-inputmode">inputmode</a></code> attribute we can select appropriate
  input modalities:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form method="post"
      enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      action="https://pizza.example.com/order.cgi"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Customer name: &lt;input name="custname" required autocomplete="shipping name" <strong>inputmode="latin-name"</strong>&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size required value="medium"&gt; Medium &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=radio name=size required value="large"&gt; Large &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="cheese"&gt; Extra Cheese &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt; &lt;input type=checkbox name="topping" value="onion"&gt; Onion &lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/form&gt;</pre>



  <h5 id="the-difference-between-the-field-type,-the-autofill-field-name,-and-the-input-modality"><span class="secno">4.10.1.7 </span>The difference between the field type, the autofill field name, and the input modality</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code>, <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code>, and <code title="attr-fe-inputmode"><a href="#attr-fe-inputmode">inputmode</a></code> attributes can seem confusingly similar. For instance,
  in all three cases, the string "<code title="">email</code>" is a valid value. This section
  attempts to illustrate the difference between the three attributes and provides advice suggesting
  how to use them.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute on <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements decides
  what kind of control the user agent will use to expose the field. Choosing between different
  values of this attribute is the same choice as choosing whether to use an <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code>
  element, a <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> element, a <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element, a <code><a href="#the-keygen-element">keygen</a></code>
  element, etc.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code> attribute, in contrast, describes
  what the value that the user will enter actually represents. Choosing between different values of
  this attribute is the same choice as choosing what the label for the element will be.</p>

  <p>First, consider telephone numbers. If a page is asking for a telephone number from the user,
  the right form control to use is <code title="attr-input-type-tel"><a href="#telephone-state-(type=tel)">&lt;input type=tel&gt;</a></code>.
  However, which <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code> value to use depends on
  which phone number the page is asking for, whether they expect a telephone number in the
  international format or just the local format, and so forth.</p>

  <p>For example, a page that forms part of a checkout process on an e-commerce site for a customer
  buying a gift to be shipped to a friend might need both the buyer's telephone number (in case of
  payment issues) and the friend's telephone number (in case of delivery issues). If the site
  expects international phone numbers (with the country code prefix), this could thus look like
  this:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Your phone number: &lt;input type=tel name=custtel autocomplete="billing tel"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Recipient's phone number: &lt;input type=tel name=shiptel autocomplete="shipping tel"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please enter complete phone numbers including the country code prefix, as in "+1 555 123 4567".</pre>

  <p>But if the site only supports British customers and recipients, it might instead look like this
  (notice the use of <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-tel-national"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-tel-national">tel-national</a></code> rather than
  <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-tel"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-tel">tel</a></code>):</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Your phone number: &lt;input type=tel name=custtel autocomplete="billing tel-national"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Recipient's phone number: &lt;input type=tel name=shiptel autocomplete="shipping tel-national"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please enter complete UK phone numbers, as in "(01632) 960 123".</pre>

  <p>Now, consider a person's preferred languages. The right <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code> value is <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-language"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-language">language</a></code>. However, there could be a number of
  different form controls used for the purpose: a free text field (<code title="attr-input-type-text"><a href="#text-(type=text)-state-and-search-state-(type=search)">&lt;input type=text&gt;</a></code>), a drop-down list (<code title="select"><a href="#the-select-element">&lt;select&gt;</a></code>), radio buttons (<code title="attr-input-type-radio"><a href="#radio-button-state-(type=radio)">&lt;input
  type=radio&gt;</a></code>), etc. It only depends on what kind of interface is desired.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-fe-inputmode"><a href="#attr-fe-inputmode">inputmode</a></code> decides what kind of input modality (e.g.
  keyboard) to use, when the control is a free-form text field.</p>

  <p>Consider names. If a page just wants one name from the user, then the relevant control is <code title="attr-input-type-text"><a href="#text-(type=text)-state-and-search-state-(type=search)">&lt;input type=text&gt;</a></code>. If the page is asking for the user's
  full name, then the relevant <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code> value is <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-name"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-name">name</a></code>. But if the user is Japanese, and the page is asking
  for the user's Japanese name and the user's romanized name, then it would be helpful to the user
  if the first field defaulted to a Japanese input modality, while the second defaulted to a Latin
  input modality (ideally with automatic capitalization of each word). This is where the <code title="attr-fe-inputmode"><a href="#attr-fe-inputmode">inputmode</a></code> attribute can help:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Japanese name: &lt;input name="j" type="text" autocomplete="section-jp name" inputmode="kana"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;label&gt;Romanized name: &lt;input name="e" type="text" autocomplete="section-en name" inputmode="latin-name"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

  <p>In this example, the "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-section">section-*</code>" keywords in
  the <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete">autocomplete</a></code> attributes' values tell the user agent
  that the two fields expect <em>different</em> names. Without them, the user agent could
  automatically fill the second field with the value given in the first field when the user gave a
  value to the first field.</p>

  <p class="note">The "<code title="">-jp</code>" and "<code title="">-en</code>" parts of the
  keywords are opaque to the user agent; the user agent cannot guess, from those, that the two names
  are expected to be in Japanese and English respectively.</p>


  <h5 id="input-author-notes"><span class="secno">4.10.1.8 </span>Date, time, and number formats</h5>
  <!-- ID referenced from other parts of the spec -->

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>In this pizza delivery example, the times are specified in the format "HH:MM": two digits for
  the hour, in 24-hour format, and two digits for the time. (Seconds could also be specified, though
  they are not necessary in this example.)</p>

  <p>In some locales, however, times are often expressed differently when presented to users. For
  example, in the United States, it is still common to use the 12-hour clock with an am/pm
  indicator, as in "2pm". In France, it is common to separate the hours from the minutes using an
  "h" character, as in "14h00".</p>

  <p>Similar issues exist with dates, with the added complication that even the order of the
  components is not always consistent — for example, in Cyprus the first of February 2003
  would typically be written "1/2/03", while that same date in Japan would typically be written as
  "2003年02月01日" — and even with numbers, where locales differ, for
  example, in what punctuation is used as the decimal separator and the thousands separator.</p>

  <p>It is therefore important to distinguish the time, date, and number formats used in HTML and in
  form submissions, which are always the formats defined in this specification (and based on the
  well-established ISO 8601 standard for computer-readable date and time formats), from the time,
  date, and number formats presented to the user by the browser and accepted as input from the user
  by the browser.</p>

  <p>The format used "on the wire", i.e. in HTML markup and in form submissions, is intended to be
  computer-readable and consistent irrespective of the user's locale. Dates, for instance, are
  always written in the format "YYYY-MM-DD", as in "2003-02-01". Users are not expected to ever see
  this format.</p>

  <p>The time, date, or number given by the page in the wire format is then translated to the user's
  preferred presentation (based on user preferences or on the locale of the page itself), before
  being displayed to the user. Similarly, after the user inputs a time, date, or number using their
  preferred format, the user agent converts it back to the wire format before putting it in the DOM
  or submitting it.</p>

  <p>This allows scripts in pages and on servers to process times, dates, and numbers in a
  consistent manner without needing to support dozens of different formats, while still supporting
  the users' needs.</p>

  <!--
    This ridiculous setup is intended to do as much of the right thing
    while still supporting code written to work in IE7. IE versions
    prior to IE8 do not update the names on the <form> element
    collection to match new names when elements are renamed, and there
    are enough pages that rename elements and then access them by
    their old name that we have to support this.

    But we still want to expose them using the new names, so as far as
    possible we pretend the legacy names aren't there except if
    there's no other element actually named that way.

    Removing the element did remove the legacy name in IE7:
    http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E...%3Cform%20action%3D%22%2F%22%3E%3Cinput%20name%3Dsubmit%3E%3C%2Fform%3E%0A%3Cscript%3E%0A%20w(document.forms%5B0%5D.submit)%3B%0A%20w(document.forms%5B0%5D.removeChild(document.getElementsByTagName('input')%5B0%5D))%3B%0A%20w(document.forms%5B0%5D.length)%3B%0A%20try%20%7B%20document.forms%5B0%5D.submit()%3B%20%7D%20catch%20(e)%20%20%7B%20w(e.message)%20%7D%0A%3C%2Fscript%3E

    There's no interop on what happens when the name was originally a
    duplicate name, so we don't persist such accesses - at the time
    of writing, Safari returned the first element, Firefox returned
    null (as we do), and IE7 returned the original collection:
    http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E...%3Cform%20action%3D%22%2F%22%3E%3Cinput%20name%3Da%20id%3Dfirst%3E%3Cinput%20name%3Da%20id%3Dsecond%3E%3C%2Fform%3E%0A%3Cscript%3E%0A%20w%28document.forms[0].a%29%3B%0A%20document.getElementsByTagName%28%27input%27%29[0].name%20%3D%20%27b%27%3B%0A%20document.getElementsByTagName%28%27input%27%29[1].name%20%3D%20%27b%27%3B%0A%20w%28document.forms[0].length%29%3B%0A%20w%28document.forms[0].a.id%29%3B%0A%3C%2Fscript%3E

    In addition, the <img> fallback nonsense is similarly here for
    legacy reasons. As is the exclusion of <input type=image>.

   <p>You can also nest <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code> elements. Here is an example expanding on the previous

   &lt;input type=radio checked name=clubtype onchange="form.numfields.disabled = !checked"&gt;
   My card has numbers on it

 &lt;/fieldset&gt;
 &lt;fieldset name="letfields" disabled&gt;
  &lt;legend&gt; &lt;label&gt;
   &lt;input type=radio name=clubtype onchange="form.letfields.disabled = !checked"&gt;

&lt;/fieldset&gt;</pre>

   <p>In this example, if the outer "Use Club Card" checkbox is not checked, everything inside the
   outer <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code>, including the two radio buttons in the legends of the two nested
   <code><a href="#the-fieldset-element">fieldset</a></code>s, will be disabled. However, if the checkbox is checked, then the radio

  <a href="#category-label" title="category-label">labelable element</a>, then that element is the <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code>
  element's <a href="#labeled-control">labeled control</a>.</span></p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If the <code title="attr-label-for"><a href="#attr-label-for">for</a></code> attribute is not specified, but the
  <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element has a <a href="#category-label" title="category-label">labelable element</a> descendant,
  then the first such descendant in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a> is the <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element's
  <a href="#labeled-control">labeled control</a>.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element's exact default presentation and behavior, in particular what
  its <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> might be, if anything, should match the platform's label
  behavior. The <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> of a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element for events targeted
  at <a href="#interactive-content-0">interactive content</a> descendants of a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element, and any
  descendants of those <a href="#interactive-content-0">interactive content</a> descendants, must be to do nothing.</p>

  <!-- activation behaviour need not be dependent on whether the
  labeled control is being rendered:
   http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/saved/371
  -->

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, on platforms where clicking a checkbox label checks the checkbox, clicking the
   <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> in the following snippet could trigger the user agent to <a href="#run-synthetic-click-activation-steps">run synthetic
   click activation steps</a> on the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element, as if the element itself had
   been triggered by the user:</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;&lt;input type=checkbox name=lost&gt; Lost&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>On other platforms, the behavior might be just to focus the control, or do nothing.</p>

  </div>

  </div>

  <p>The <code title="attr-fae-form"><a href="#attr-fae-form">form</a></code> attribute is used to explicitly associate the
  <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element with its <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a>.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following example shows three form controls each with a label, two of which have small
   text showing the right format for users to use.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Full name: &lt;input name=fn&gt; &lt;small&gt;Format: First Last&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Age: &lt;input name=age type=number min=0&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   <p>The first four URLs in this sample consist of the four URLs in the author-specified list that

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here is an example of using a numeric input control:</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;How much do you want to charge? $&lt;input type=number min=0 step=0.01 name=price&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>As described above, a user agent might support numeric input in the user's local format,
   converting it to the format required for submission as described above. This might include
   handling grouping separators (as in "872,000,000,000") and various decimal separators (such as
   "3,99" vs "3.99") or using local digits (such as those in Arabic, Devanagari, Persian, and
   Thai).</p>

  <p class="note">The <code title="">type=number</code> state is not appropriate for input that
  happens to only consist of numbers but isn't strictly speaking a number. For example, it would be
  inappropriate for credit card numbers or US postal codes. A simple way of determining whether to
  use <code title="">type=number</code> is to consider whether it would make sense for the input
  control to have a spinbox interface (e.g. with "up" and "down" arrows). Getting a credit card
  number wrong by 1 in the last digit isn't a minor mistake, it's as wrong as getting every digit
  incorrect. So it would not make sense for the user to select a credit card number using "up" and
  "down" buttons. When a spinbox interface is not appropriate, <code title="">type=text</code> is
  probably the right choice (possibly with a <code title="attr-input-pattern"><a href="#attr-input-pattern">pattern</a></code>

   <code class="no-backref" title="dom-textarea/input-setSelectionRange"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-setselectionrange">setSelectionRange()</a></code> methods.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here is an example of a range control using an autocomplete list with the <code title="attr-input-list"><a href="#attr-input-list">list</a></code> attribute. This could be useful if there are values along the
   full range of the control that are especially important, such as preconfigured light levels or
   typical speed limits in a range control used as a speed control. The following markup
   fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input type="range" min="-100" max="100" value="0" step="10" name="power" list="powers"&gt;
&lt;datalist id="powers"&gt;
 &lt;option value="0"&gt;
 &lt;option value="-30"&gt;
 &lt;option value="30"&gt;
<span class="bad"> &lt;option value="++50"&gt;</span>
&lt;/datalist&gt;
</pre>

   <p>...with the following style sheet applied:</p>

   <pre>input { height: 75px; width: 49px; background: #D5CCBB; color: black; }</pre>

   <p>...might render as:</p>

   <p><img alt="A vertical slider control whose primary color is black and whose background color is beige, with the slider having five tick marks, one long one at each extremity, and three short ones clustered around the midpoint." height="75" src="images/sample-range.png" width="49">

   </p><p>Note how the UA determined the orientation of the control from the ratio of the
   style-sheet-specified height and width properties. The colors were similarly derived from the
   style sheet. The tick marks, however, were derived from the markup. In particular, the <code title="attr-input-step"><a href="#attr-input-step">step</a></code> attribute has not affected the placement of tick marks, the
   UA deciding to only use the author-specified completion values and then adding longer tick marks
   at the extremes.</p>

   <p>Note also how the invalid value <code title="">++50</code> was completely ignored.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For another example, consider the following markup fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input name=x type=range min=100 max=700 step=9.09090909 value=509.090909&gt;</pre>

   <p>A user agent could display in a variety of ways, for instance:</p>

   <p><img alt="As a dial." height="57" src="images/sample-range-2a.png" width="231"></p>

   <p>Or, alternatively, for instance:</p>

   <p><img alt="As a long horizontal slider with tick marks." height="56" src="images/sample-range-2b.png" width="445"></p>

   <p>The user agent could pick which one to display based on the dimensions given in the style
   sheet. This would allow it to maintain the same resolution for the tick marks, despite the
   differences in width.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Finally, here is an example of a range control with two labeled values:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input type="range" name="a" list="a-values"&gt;
&lt;datalist id="a-values"&gt;
 &lt;option value="10" label="Low"&gt;
 &lt;option value="90" label="High"&gt;
&lt;/datalist&gt;
</pre>

   <p>With styles that make the control draw vertically, it might look as follows:</p>

   <p><img alt="A vertical slider control with two tick marks, one near the top labeled 'High', and one near the bottom labeled 'Low'." height="164" src="images/sample-range-labels.png" width="103">

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-input-accept" title="attr-input-accept"><code>accept</code></dfn> attribute may be specified to
  provide user agents with a hint of what file types will be accepted.</p>

  <p>If specified, the attribute must consist of a <a href="#set-of-comma-separated-tokens">set of comma-separated tokens</a>, each
  of which must be an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for one of the following:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>The string <code title="">audio/*</code></dt>

   <dd>Indicates that sound files are accepted.</dd>

   <dt>The string <code title="">video/*</code></dt>

   <dd>Indicates that video files are accepted.</dd>

   <dt>The string <code title="">image/*</code></dt>

   <dd>Indicates that image files are accepted.</dd>

   <dt>A <a href="#valid-mime-type-with-no-parameters">valid MIME type with no parameters</a></dt>

   <dd>Indicates that files of the specified type are accepted.</dd>

   <dt>A string whose first character is a "." (U+002E) character</dt>

   <dd>Indicates that files with the specified file extension are accepted.</dd>

  </dl>

  <p>The tokens must not be <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> matches for any of the other tokens
  (i.e. duplicates are not allowed). <span class="impl">To obtain the list of tokens from the
  attribute, the user agent must <a href="#split-a-string-on-commas" title="split a string on commas">split the attribute value on
  commas</a>.</span></p>

  <p>User agents may use the value of this attribute to display a more appropriate user interface
  than a generic file picker. For instance, given the value <code title="">image/*</code>, a user
  agent could offer the user the option of using a local camera or selecting a photograph from their
  photo collection; given the value <code title="">audio/*</code>, a user agent could offer the user
  the option of recording a clip using a headset microphone.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents should prevent the user from selecting files that are not accepted by one (or more)
  of these tokens.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">Authors are encouraged to specify both any MIME types and any corresponding
  extensions when looking for data in a specific format.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, consider an application that converts Microsoft Word documents to Open Document
   Format files. Since Microsoft Word documents are described with a wide variety of MIME types and
   extensions, the site can list several, as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input type="file" accept=".doc,.docx,.xml,application/msword,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"&gt;</pre>

   <p>On platforms that only use file extensions to describe file types, the extensions listed here
   can be used to filter the allowed documents, while the MIME types can be used with the system's
   type registration table (mapping MIME types to extensions used by the system), if any, to
   determine any other extensions to allow. Similarly, on a system that does not have file names or
   extensions but labels documents with MIME types internally, the MIME types can be used to pick
   the allowed files, while the extensions can be used if the system has an extension registration
   table that maps known extensions to MIME types used by the system.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="warning">Extensions tend to be ambiguous (e.g. there are an untold number of formats
  that use the "<code title="">.dat</code>" extension, and users can typically quite easily rename
  their files to have a "<code title="">.doc</code>" extension even if they are not Microsoft Word
  documents), and MIME types tend to be unreliable (e.g. many formats have no formally registered
  types, and many formats are in practice labeled using a number of different MIME types). Authors
  are reminded that, as usual, data received from a client should be treated with caution, as it may
  not be in an expected format even if the user is not hostile and the user agent fully obeyed the
  <code title="attr-input-accept"><a href="#attr-input-accept">accept</a></code> attribute's requirements.</p>

  <div class="example" id="fakepath-srsly">

   <p>For historical reasons, the <code title="dom-input-value"><a href="#dom-input-value">value</a></code> IDL attribute prefixes
   the file name with the string "<code title="">C:\fakepath\</code>". Some legacy user agents
   actually included the full path (which was a security vulnerability). As a result of this,
   obtaining the file name from the <code title="dom-input-value"><a href="#dom-input-value">value</a></code> IDL attribute in a
   backwards-compatible way is non-trivial. The following function extracts the file name in a
   suitably compatible manner:</p>

   <pre>function extractFilename(path) {
  if (path.substr(0, 12) == "C:\\fakepath\\")
    return path.substr(12); // modern browser
  var x;
  x = path.lastIndexOf('/');
  if (x &gt;= 0) // Unix-based path
    return path.substr(x+1);
  x = path.lastIndexOf('\\');
  if (x &gt;= 0) // Windows-based path
    return path.substr(x+1);
  return path; // just the file name
}</pre>

   <p>This can be used as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;input type=file name=image onchange="updateFilename(this.value)"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The name of the file you picked is: &lt;span id="filename"&gt;(none)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
 function updateFilename(path) {
   var name = extractFilename(path);
   document.getElementById('filename').textContent = name;
 }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The formats shown to the user in date, time, and number controls is independent of the format
  used for form submission.</p>

  <p>Browsers are encouraged to use user interfaces that present dates, times, and numbers according
  to the conventions of either the locale implied by the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element's
  <a href="#language">language</a> or the user's preferred locale. Using the page's locale will ensure
  consistency with page-provided data.

  </p><p class="example">For example, it would be confusing to users if an American English page claimed
  that a Cirque De Soleil show was going to be showing on 02/03<!-- Feb 3 (year) -->, but their
  browser, configured to use the British English locale, only showed the date 03/02<!-- 3 Feb (year)
  --> in the ticket purchase date picker. Using the page's locale would at least ensure that the
  date was presented in the same format everywhere. (There's still a risk that the user would end up
  arriving a month late, of course, but there's only so much that can be done about such cultural
  differences...)</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-input-multiple" title="attr-input-multiple"><code>multiple</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean
  attribute</a> that indicates whether the user is to be allowed to specify more than one
  value.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following extract shows how an e-mail client's "Cc" field could accept multiple e-mail
   addresses.</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;Cc: &lt;input type=email multiple name=cc&gt;&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

   <p>If the user had, amongst many friends in his user contacts database, two friends "Arthur Dent"
   (with address "art@example.net") and "Adam Josh" (with address "adamjosh@example.net"), then,
   after the user has typed "a", the user agent might suggest these two e-mail addresses to the
   user.</p>

  <p class="auth">When an <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element has a <code title="attr-input-pattern"><a href="#attr-input-pattern">pattern</a></code>
  attribute specified, authors should provide a description of the pattern in text near the
  control. Authors may also include a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
  attribute to give a description of the pattern. User agents may use
  the contents of this attribute, if it is present, when informing the
  user that the pattern is not matched, or at any other suitable time,
  such as in a tooltip or read out by assistive technology when the
  control gains focus.</p>

  <p class="note">Relying on the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
  attribute alone is currently discouraged as many user agents do not expose the attribute in an
  accessible manner as required by this specification (e.g. requiring a pointing device such as a
  mouse to cause a tooltip to appear, which excludes keyboard-only users and touch-only users,
  such as anyone with a modern phone or tablet).</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>For example, the following snippet includes the pattern description in text below the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code>, 
   the pattern description is also included in the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute:</p>
   
   <pre>&lt;label&gt; Part number:
        &lt;input pattern="[0-9][A-Z]{3}" name="part"
        title="A part number is a digit followed by three uppercase letters."/&gt;
        &lt;/label&gt;
        &lt;p&gt;A part number is a digit followed by three uppercase letters.&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>
    <p>The presence of the pattern description in text makes the advice available to any user regardless of device.</p>
    <p>The presence of the pattern description in the title attribute, results in the description being announced by 
    assistive technology such as screen readers when the input receives focus.</p> 
	<p>If the user has attempted to submit the form with incorrect information, the presence of the title attribute text 
	could also cause the UA to display an alert such as:</p>
    <pre><samp>A part number is a digit followed by three uppercase letters.
    You cannot submit this form when the field is incorrect.</samp></pre>
  
   <p>In this example, the pattern description is in text below the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code>, 
   but not in the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute. The 
   <code><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-describedby">aria-describedby</a></code> attribute 
   is used to explicitly associate the text description with the control, the description is announced by 
   assistive technology such as screen readers when the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> receives focus: 
   </p>
    <pre>&lt;label&gt; Part number:
        &lt;input pattern="[0-9][A-Z]{3}" name="part" aria-describedby="description"&gt;
        &lt;/label&gt;
        &lt;p id="description"&gt;A part number is a digit followed by three uppercase letters.&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>
  </div>

  <p>When a control has a <code title="attr-input-pattern"><a href="#attr-input-pattern">pattern</a></code> attribute, the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute, if used, must describe the pattern. Additional
  information could also be included, so long as it assists the user in filling in the control.
  Otherwise, assistive technology would be impaired.</p>

  <p class="example">For instance, if the title attribute contained the caption of the control,
  assistive technology could end up saying something like <samp>The text you have entered does not
  match the required pattern. Birthday</samp>, which is not useful.</p>

  <p class="auth">UAs may still show the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> in non-error situations (for
  example, as a tooltip when hovering over the control), so authors should be careful not to word
  <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>s as if an error has necessarily occurred.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>This URL field offers some suggestions.</p>

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;Homepage: &lt;input name=hp type=url list=hpurls&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;datalist id=hpurls&gt;
 &lt;option value="http://www.google.com/" label="Google"&gt;
 &lt;option value="http://www.reddit.com/" label="Reddit"&gt;
&lt;/datalist&gt;</pre>

   <p>Other URLs from the user's history might show also; this is up to the user agent.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>This example demonstrates how to design a form that uses the autocompletion list feature while
   still degrading usefully in legacy user agents.</p>

   <p>If the autocompletion list is merely an aid, and is not important to the content, then simply
   using a <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element with children <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> elements is enough. To
   prevent the values from being rendered in legacy user agents, they need to be placed inside the
   <code title="attr-option-value"><a href="#attr-option-value">value</a></code> attribute instead of inline.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;
  Enter a breed:
  &lt;input type="text" name="breed" list="breeds"&gt;
  &lt;datalist id="breeds"&gt;
   &lt;option value="Abyssinian"&gt;
   &lt;option value="Alpaca"&gt;
   &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
  &lt;/datalist&gt;
 &lt;/label&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>However, if the values need to be shown in legacy UAs, then fallback content can be placed
   inside the <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element, as follows:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;
  Enter a breed:
  &lt;input type="text" name="breed" list="breeds"&gt;
 &lt;/label&gt;
 &lt;datalist id="breeds"&gt;
  &lt;label&gt;
   or select one from the list:
   &lt;select name="breed"&gt;
    &lt;option value=""&gt; (none selected)
    &lt;option&gt;Abyssinian
    &lt;option&gt;Alpaca
    &lt;!-- ... --&gt;
   &lt;/select&gt;
  &lt;/label&gt;
 &lt;/datalist&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>

   <p>The fallback content will only be shown in UAs that don't support <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code>. The
   options, on the other hand, will be detected by all UAs, even though they are not children of the
   <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element.</p>

   <p>Note that if an <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element used in a <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> is <code title="attr-option-selected"><a href="#attr-option-selected">selected</a></code>, it will be selected by default by legacy UAs
   (because it affects the <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code>), but it will not have any effect on the
   <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element in UAs that support <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code>.</p>

  <h6 id="the-placeholder-attribute"><span class="secno">4.10.7.3.10 </span>The <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> attribute</h6>

  <!-- substantially similar text in the <textarea> section -->

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-input-placeholder" title="attr-input-placeholder"><code>placeholder</code></dfn> attribute represents a
  <em>short</em> hint (a word or short phrase) intended to aid the user with data entry when the
  control has no value. A hint could be a sample value or a brief description of the expected
  format. The attribute, if specified, must have a value that contains no "LF" (U+000A) or
  "CR" (U+000D) characters.</p>

<!-- FORK -->
  <p>The <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> attribute should not be used as a
  replacement for a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code>. For a longer hint or other advisory text, place the text
  next to the control.</p>
 
   <p class="note">Use of the <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> 
   attribute as a replacement for a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> can reduce the 
   accessibility and usability of the control for a range of users including older 
   users and users with cognitive, mobility, fine motor skill or vision impairments. 
   While the hint given by the control's <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> is shown at all times, the short 
   hint given in the <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> 
   attribute is only shown before the user enters a value. Furthermore,
   <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> text may be mistaken for 
   a pre-filled value, and as commonly implemented the default color of the placeholder text 
   provides insufficient contrast and the lack of a separate visible <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> 
   reduces the size of the hit region available for setting focus on the control.</p>
<!-- FORK -->

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents should present this hint to the user, after having <a href="#strip-line-breaks" title="strip line
  breaks">stripped line breaks</a> from it, when the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> is the empty string and the control is not focused,
  i.e., by displaying it inside a blank unfocused control and hiding it otherwise.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here is an example of a mail configuration user interface that uses the <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> attribute:</p>

   <pre>&lt;fieldset&gt;
 &lt;legend&gt;Mail Account&lt;/legend&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Name: &lt;input type="text" name="fullname" placeholder="John Ratzenberger"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Address: &lt;input type="email" name="address" placeholder="john@example.net"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Password: &lt;input type="password" name="password"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Description: &lt;input type="text" name="desc" placeholder="My Email Account"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In situations where the control's content has one directionality but the placeholder needs to
   have a different directionality, Unicode's bidirectional-algorithm formatting characters can be
   used in the attribute value:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input name=t1 type=tel placeholder="<strong>&amp;#x202B;</strong> <bdo dir="rtl">رقم الهاتف 1</bdo> <strong>&amp;#x202E;</strong>"&gt;
&lt;input name=t2 type=tel placeholder="<strong>&amp;#x202B;</strong> <bdo dir="rtl">رقم الهاتف 2</bdo> <strong>&amp;#x202E;</strong>"&gt;</pre>

   <p>For slightly more clarity, here's the same example using numeric character references instead of inline Arabic:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input name=t1 type=tel placeholder="<strong>&amp;#x202B;</strong>&amp;#1585;&amp;#1602;&amp;#1605; &amp;#1575;&amp;#1604;&amp;#1607;&amp;#1575;&amp;#1578;&amp;#1601; 1<strong>&amp;#x202E;</strong>"&gt;
&lt;input name=t2 type=tel placeholder="<strong>&amp;#x202B;</strong>&amp;#1585;&amp;#1602;&amp;#1605; &amp;#1575;&amp;#1604;&amp;#1607;&amp;#1575;&amp;#1578;&amp;#1601; 2<strong>&amp;#x202E;</strong>"&gt;</pre>

  <h5 id="common-event-behaviors"><span class="secno">4.10.7.5 </span>Common event behaviors</h5>

  <p>When the <dfn id="event-input-input" title="event-input-input"><code>input</code></dfn> event <a href="#concept-input-apply" title="concept-input-apply">applies</a>, any time the
  user causes the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> to change, the user agent
  must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named <code title="event-input">input</code> at the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element. User agents may wait for a
  suitable break in the user's interaction before queuing the task; for example, a user agent could
  wait for the user to have not hit a key for 100ms, so as to only fire the event when the user
  pauses, instead of continuously for each keystroke.</p> <!-- same text is present in the
  <textarea> section -->

  <p class="example">Examples of a user changing the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> would include the user typing into a text field, pasting a
  new value into the field, or undoing an edit in that field. Some user interactions do not cause
  changes to the value, e.g. hitting the "delete" key in an empty text field, or replacing some text
  in the field with text from the clipboard that happens to be exactly the same text.</p>

  <p>When the <dfn id="event-input-change" title="event-input-change"><code>change</code></dfn> event <a href="#concept-input-apply" title="concept-input-apply">applies</a>, if the
  element does not have an <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> defined but uses a user interface that
  involves an explicit commit action, then any time the user commits a change to the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> or list of <a href="#concept-input-type-file-selected" title="concept-input-type-file-selected">selected files</a>, the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a
  task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named <code title="event-change">change</code> at the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element.</p>

  <p class="example">An example of a user interface with a commit action would be a <a href="#file-upload-state-(type=file)" title="attr-input-type-file">File Upload</a> control that consists of a single button that
  brings up a file selection dialog: when the dialog is closed, if that the <a href="#concept-input-type-file-selected" title="concept-input-type-file-selected">file selection</a> changed as a result, then the user
  has committed a new <a href="#concept-input-type-file-selected" title="concept-input-type-file-selected">file selection</a>.</p>

  <p class="example">Another example of a user interface with a commit action would be a <a href="#date-state-(type=date)" title="attr-input-type-date">Date</a> control that allows both text-based user input and user
  selection from a drop-down calendar: while text input might not have an explicit commit step,
  selecting a date from the drop down calendar and then dismissing the drop down would be a commit
  action.</p>

  <p class="example">A third example of a user interface with a commit action would be a <a href="#range-state-(type=range)" title="attr-input-type-range">Range</a> controls that use a slider. While the user is dragging
  the control's knob, <code title="event-input">input</code> events would fire whenever the position
  changed, whereas the <code title="event-change">change</code> event would only fire when the user
  let go of the knob, committing to a specific value.</p>

  <p>When the user agent changes the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> on behalf
  of the user (e.g. as part of a form prefilling feature), the user agent must follow these
  steps:</p>

  <ol>

   <li>If the <code title="event-input-input"><a href="#event-input-input">input</a></code> event <a href="#concept-input-apply" title="concept-input-apply">applies</a>, <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a>
   to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named <code title="event-input">input</code> at
   the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element.</li>

   <li>If the <code title="event-input-change"><a href="#event-input-change">change</a></code> event <a href="#concept-input-apply" title="concept-input-apply">applies</a>, <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a
   task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named <code title="event-change">change</code> at the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element.</li>

  </ol>

  <p class="note">In addition, when the <code title="event-input-change"><a href="#event-input-change">change</a></code> event
  <a href="#concept-input-apply" title="concept-input-apply">applies</a>, <code title="event-change">change</code> events can also be fired as part of the
  element's <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> and as part of the <a href="#unfocusing-steps">unfocusing steps</a>.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#task-source">task source</a> for these <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a> is the

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element represents a set of
  <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> elements that represent predefined options for
  other controls. In the rendering,
  the <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a>
  nothing<span class="impl"> and it, along with its children, should
  be hidden</span>.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element can be used in two ways. In the simplest case, the
  <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element has just <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element children.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;

 &lt;/datalist&gt;
&lt;/label&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>In the more elaborate case, the <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element can be given contents that are to
  be displayed for down-level clients that don't support <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code>. In this case, the
  <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> elements are provided inside a <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element inside the
  <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <pre>&lt;label&gt;
 Sex:
 &lt;input name=sex list=sexes&gt;
&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;datalist id=sexes&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;
  or select from the list:
  &lt;select name=sex&gt;
   &lt;option value=""&gt;
   &lt;option&gt;Female
   &lt;option&gt;Male
  &lt;/select&gt;
 &lt;/label&gt;
&lt;/datalist&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element is hooked up to an

  element or as part of a list of suggestions in a <code><a href="#the-datalist-element">datalist</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>In certain circumstances described in the definition of the <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element, an
  <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element can be a <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element's <a href="#placeholder-label-option">placeholder label
  option</a>. A <a href="#placeholder-label-option">placeholder label option</a> does not represent an actual option, but
  instead represents a label for the <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> control.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-option-disabled" title="attr-option-disabled"><code>disabled</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean

An <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element is <dfn id="concept-option-disabled" title="concept-option-disabled">disabled</dfn> if its <code title="attr-option-disabled"><a href="#attr-option-disabled">disabled</a></code> attribute is present or if it is a child of an
  <code><a href="#the-optgroup-element">optgroup</a></code> element whose <code title="attr-optgroup-disabled"><a href="#attr-optgroup-disabled">disabled</a></code> attribute

  </div>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-option-label" title="attr-option-label"><code>label</code></dfn> attribute provides a label for

  <p>The <code title="attr-option-label"><a href="#attr-option-label">label</a></code> content attribute, if specified, must not be
  empty. If the attribute is not specified, then the element itself must not be empty.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-option-value" title="attr-option-value"><code>value</code></dfn> attribute provides a value for
  element. The <dfn id="concept-option-value" title="concept-option-value">value</dfn> of an <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element is
  the value of the <code title="attr-option-value"><a href="#attr-option-value">value</a></code> content attribute, if there is one,
  or, if there is not, the value of the element's <code title="dom-option-text"><a href="#dom-option-text">text</a></code> IDL
  attribute.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-option-selected" title="attr-option-selected"><code>selected</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean
  attribute</a>. It represents the default <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> of the element.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>The <dfn id="concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</dfn> of an <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code>
  element is a boolean state, initially false. Except where otherwise specified, when the element is
  created, its <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> must be set to true if
  the element has a <code title="attr-option-selected"><a href="#attr-option-selected">selected</a></code> attribute. Whenever an
  <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> element's <code title="attr-option-selected"><a href="#attr-option-selected">selected</a></code> attribute is
  added, its <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> must be set to true.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code title="dom-option"><a href="#dom-option">Option()</a></code> constructor, when called with three
  or fewer arguments, overrides the initial state of the <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> state to always be false even if the third
  argument is true (implying that a <code title="attr-option-selected"><a href="#attr-option-selected">selected</a></code> attribute is
  to be set). The fourth argument can be used to explicitly set the initial <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> state when using the constructor.</p>

If the <var title="">selected</var> argument is true, the new object must have its <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> set to true; otherwise the <a href="#concept-option-selectedness" title="concept-option-selectedness">selectedness</a> must be set to false, even if the <var title="">defaultSelected</var> argument is true.

  <p>When a <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> is <a href="#concept-fe-mutable" title="concept-fe-mutable">mutable</a>, its <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> should be

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> element has a <dfn id="concept-textarea-dirty" title="concept-textarea-dirty">dirty value flag</dfn>, which must be

  <p>For historical reasons, the element's value is normalised in
  three different ways for three different purposes. The <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> is the value as
  it was originally set. It is not normalized. The <a href="#concept-textarea-api-value" title="concept-textarea-api-value">API value</a> is the value
  used in the <code title="dom-textarea-value"><a href="#dom-textarea-value">value</a></code> IDL
  attribute. It is normalized so that line breaks use "LF" (U+000A) characters. Finally, there is the form submission <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a>. It is normalized so that line
  breaks use U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN "CRLF" (U+000A) character
  pairs, and in addition, if necessary given the element's <code title="attr-textarea-wrap"><a href="#attr-textarea-wrap">wrap</a></code> attribute, additional line
  breaks are inserted to wrap the text at the given width.</p>

  <p>The element's <dfn id="concept-textarea-api-value" title="concept-textarea-api-value">API
  value</dfn> is defined to be the element's <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> with the

   character pair from the <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> with a single
   "LF" (U+000A) character.</p></li>

   <li><p>Replace every remaining U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN character from
   the <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> with
   a single "LF" (U+000A) character.</p></li>

  </ol>

  <p>The element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> is
  defined to be the element's <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw value</a> with the
  following transformation applied:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>Replace every occurrence of a "CR" (U+000D)
   character not followed by a "LF" (U+000A) character, and
   every occurrence of a "LF" (U+000A) character not preceded
   by a "CR" (U+000D) character, by a two-character
   string consisting of a U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN "CRLF" (U+000A) character pair.</p></li>

   into the string using a UA-defined algorithm so that each line has
   no more than <a href="#attr-textarea-cols-value" title="attr-textarea-cols-value">character
   width</a> characters. For the purposes of this requirement,
   lines are delimited by the start of the string, the end of the

   character pairs.</p></li>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-textarea-placeholder" title="attr-textarea-placeholder"><code>placeholder</code></dfn>
  attribute represents a <em>short</em> hint (a word or short phrase)

  characters.</p>
  
  <!-- FORK -->
  <p>The <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> attribute 
  should not be used as a replacement for a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code>. For a

   <p class="note">Use of the <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> 
   attribute as a replacement for a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> can reduce the 
   accessibility and usability of the control for a range of users including older 
   users and users with cognitive, mobility, fine motor skill or vision impairments. 
   While the hint given by the control's <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> is shown at all times, the short 
   hint given in the <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> 
   attribute is only shown before the user enters a value. Furthermore, 
   <code title="attr-input-placeholder"><a href="#attr-input-placeholder">placeholder</a></code> text may be mistaken for 
   a pre-filled value, and as commonly implemented the default color of the placeholder text 
   provides insufficient contrast and the lack of a separate visible <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> 
   reduces the size of the hit region available for setting focus on the control.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents should present this hint to the user, after having
  <a href="#strip-line-breaks" title="strip line breaks">stripped line breaks</a> from it,
  when the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> is

  The <code title="attr-fe-name"><a href="#attr-fe-name">name</a></code> attribute represents the element's name.

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-keygen-element">keygen</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a key
  pair generator control. When the control's form is submitted, the
  private key is stored in the local keystore, and the public key is
  packaged and sent to the server.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-keygen-challenge" title="attr-keygen-challenge"><code>challenge</code></dfn> attribute

  <p class="note">This specification does not specify how the private

  <code><a href="#signedpublickeyandchallenge">SignedPublicKeyAndChallenge</a></code> (SPKAC) structure, the
  server will generate a client certificate and offer it back to the
  user for download; this certificate, once downloaded and stored in
  the key store along with the private key, can then be used to
  authenticate to services that use TLS and certificate
  authentication.</p>

  <!-- how does the UA know which private key is associated with a
  certificate it gets back after the server has taken the public key
  created by <keygen> and turned it into a client cert? -->

  <div class="example">

   <p>To generate a key pair, add the private key to the user's key
   store, and submit the public key to the server, markup such as the
   following can be used:</p>

   <pre>&lt;form action="processkey.cgi" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;keygen name="key"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type=submit value="Submit key..."&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

   <p>The server will then receive a form submission with a packaged
   RSA public key as the value of "<code title="">key</code>". This
   can then be used for various purposes, such as generating a client
   certificate, as mentioned above.</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> the
  completion progress of a task. The progress is either indeterminate,
  indicating that progress is being made but that it is not clear how
  much more work remains to be done before the task is complete (e.g.
  because the task is waiting for a remote host to respond), or the
  progress is a number in the range zero to a maximum, giving the
  fraction of work that has so far been completed.</p>

  <p>There are two attributes that determine the current task
  completion represented by the element. The <dfn id="attr-progress-value" title="attr-progress-value"><code>value</code></dfn> attribute
  specifies how much of the task has been completed, and the <dfn id="attr-progress-max" title="attr-progress-max"><code>max</code></dfn> attribute specifies
  how much work the task requires in total. The units are arbitrary
  and not specified.</p>

  <p class="note">To make a determinate progress bar, add a <code title="attr-progress-value"><a href="#attr-progress-value">value</a></code> attribute with the current
  progress (either a number from 0.0 to 1.0, or, if the <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attribute is specified, a
  number from 0 to the value of the <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attribute). To make an
  indeterminate progress bar, remove the <code title="attr-progress-value"><a href="#attr-progress-value">value</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to also include the current value and the
  maximum value inline as text inside the element, so that the
  progress is made available to users of legacy user agents.</p>

  <div class="example">
   <p>Here is a snippet of a Web application that shows the progress
   of some automated task:</p>
   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h2&gt;Task Progress&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Progress: &lt;progress id="p" max=100&gt;&lt;span&gt;0&lt;/span&gt;%&lt;/progress&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;script&gt;
  var progressBar = document.getElementById('p');
  function updateProgress(newValue) {
    progressBar.value = newValue;
    progressBar.getElementsByTagName('span')[0].textContent = newValue;
  }
 &lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>
   <p>(The <code>updateProgress()</code> method in this example would
   be called by some other code on the page to update the actual
   progress bar as the task progressed.)</p>
  </div>

  <p>The <code title="attr-progress-value"><a href="#attr-progress-value">value</a></code> and <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attributes, when present, must

  floating-point numbers</a>. The <code title="attr-progress-value"><a href="#attr-progress-value">value</a></code> attribute, if present, must
  have a value equal to or greater than zero, and less than or equal
  to the value of the <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code>
  attribute, if present, or 1.0, otherwise. The <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attribute, if present, must
  have a value greater than zero.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> element is the wrong
  element to use for something that is just a gauge, as opposed to
  task progress. For instance, indicating disk space usage using
  <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> would be inappropriate. Instead, the
  <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element is available for such use cases.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>If the progress bar is a determinate progress bar and the element
  has a <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attribute, the user

  bar is that value. Otherwise, if the element has no <code title="attr-progress-max"><a href="#attr-progress-max">max</a></code> attribute, or if it has one but
  parsing it resulted in an error, or if the parsed value was less
  than or equal to zero, then the <a href="#concept-progress-maximum" title="concept-progress-maximum">maximum value</a> of the

  <p><strong>UA requirements for showing the progress bar</strong>:

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> a scalar measurement within a known
  range, or a fractional value; for example disk usage, the relevance of a query result, or the
  fraction of a voting population to have selected a particular candidate.</p>

  <p>This is also known as a gauge.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element should not be used to indicate progress (as in a
  progress bar). For that role, HTML provides a separate <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> element.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element also does not represent a scalar value of arbitrary
  range — for example, it would be wrong to use this to report a weight, or height, unless
  there is a known maximum value.</p>

  <p>There are six attributes that determine the semantics of the gauge represented by the
  element.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-meter-min" title="attr-meter-min"><code>min</code></dfn> attribute specifies the lower bound of
  the range, and the <dfn id="attr-meter-max" title="attr-meter-max"><code>max</code></dfn> attribute specifies the
  upper bound. The <dfn id="attr-meter-value" title="attr-meter-value"><code>value</code></dfn> attribute specifies the
  value to have the gauge indicate as the "measured" value.</p>

  <p>The other three attributes can be used to segment the gauge's range into "low", "medium", and
  "high" parts, and to indicate which part of the gauge is the "optimum" part. The <dfn id="attr-meter-low" title="attr-meter-low"><code>low</code></dfn> attribute specifies the range that is considered to
  be the "low" part, and the <dfn id="attr-meter-high" title="attr-meter-high"><code>high</code></dfn> attribute
  specifies the range that is considered to be the "high" part. The <dfn id="attr-meter-optimum" title="attr-meter-optimum"><code>optimum</code></dfn> attribute gives the position that is
  "optimum"; if that is higher than the "high" value then this indicates that the higher the value,
  the better; if it's lower than the "low" mark then it indicates that lower values are better, and
  naturally if it is in between then it indicates that neither high nor low values are good.</p>

  <p><span class="impl"><strong>Authoring requirements</strong>:</span> The <code title="attr-meter-value"><a href="#attr-meter-value">value</a></code> attribute must be specified. The <code title="attr-meter-value"><a href="#attr-meter-value">value</a></code>, <code title="attr-meter-min"><a href="#attr-meter-min">min</a></code>, <code title="attr-meter-low"><a href="#attr-meter-low">low</a></code>, <code title="attr-meter-high"><a href="#attr-meter-high">high</a></code>, <code title="attr-meter-max"><a href="#attr-meter-max">max</a></code>, and <code title="attr-meter-optimum"><a href="#attr-meter-optimum">optimum</a></code> attributes,
  when present, must have values that are <a href="#valid-floating-point-number" title="valid floating-point number">valid
  floating-point numbers</a>.</p>

  <p>In addition, the attributes' values are further constrained:</p>

  <p>Let <var title="">value</var> be the <code title="attr-meter-value"><a href="#attr-meter-value">value</a></code> attribute's
  number.</p>

  <p>If the <code title="attr-meter-min"><a href="#attr-meter-min">min</a></code> attribute is specified, then let <var title="">minimum</var> be that attribute's value; otherwise, let it be zero.</p>

  <p>If the <code title="attr-meter-max"><a href="#attr-meter-max">max</a></code> attribute is specified, then let <var title="">maximum</var> be that attribute's value; otherwise, let it be 1.0.</p>

  <p>The following inequalities must hold, as applicable:</p>

  <ul class="brief">
   <li><var title="">minimum</var> ≤ <var title="">value</var> ≤ <var title="">maximum</var></li>
   <li><var title="">minimum</var> ≤ <code title="attr-meter-low"><a href="#attr-meter-low">low</a></code> ≤ <var title="">maximum</var> (if <code title="attr-meter-low"><a href="#attr-meter-low">low</a></code> is specified)</li>
   <li><var title="">minimum</var> ≤ <code title="attr-meter-high"><a href="#attr-meter-high">high</a></code> ≤ <var title="">maximum</var> (if <code title="attr-meter-high"><a href="#attr-meter-high">high</a></code> is specified)</li>
   <li><var title="">minimum</var> ≤ <code title="attr-meter-optimum"><a href="#attr-meter-optimum">optimum</a></code> ≤ <var title="">maximum</var> (if <code title="attr-meter-optimum"><a href="#attr-meter-optimum">optimum</a></code> is specified)</li>
   <li><code title="attr-meter-low"><a href="#attr-meter-low">low</a></code> ≤ <code title="attr-meter-high"><a href="#attr-meter-high">high</a></code> (if both <code title="attr-meter-low"><a href="#attr-meter-low">low</a></code> and <code title="attr-meter-high"><a href="#attr-meter-high">high</a></code> are specified)</li>
  </ul>

  <p class="note">If no minimum or maximum is specified, then the range is assumed to be 0..1, and
  the value thus has to be within that range.</p>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to include a textual representation of the gauge's state in the
  element's contents, for users of user agents that do not support the <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code>
  element.</p>

  <p>When used with <span>microdata</span>, the <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element's <code title="attr-meter-value"><a href="#attr-meter-value">value</a></code> attribute provides the element's machine-readable value.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following examples show three gauges that would all be
   three-quarters full:</p>

   <pre>Storage space usage: &lt;meter value=6 max=8&gt;6 blocks used (out of 8 total)&lt;/meter&gt;
Voter turnout: &lt;meter value=0.75&gt;&lt;img alt="75%" src="graph75.png"&gt;&lt;/meter&gt;
Tickets sold: &lt;meter min="0" max="100" value="75"&gt;&lt;/meter&gt;</pre>

   <p>The following example is incorrect use of the element, because it doesn't give a range (and
   since the default maximum is 1, both of the gauges would end up looking maxed out):</p>

   <pre class="bad">&lt;p&gt;The grapefruit pie had a radius of &lt;meter value=12&gt;12cm&lt;/meter&gt;
and a height of &lt;meter value=2&gt;2cm&lt;/meter&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;!-- <strong>BAD!</strong> --&gt;</pre>

   <p>Instead, one would either not include the meter element, or use the meter element with a
   defined range to give the dimensions in context compared to other pies:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;The grapefruit pie had a radius of 12cm and a height of
2cm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt;Radius: &lt;dd&gt; &lt;meter min=0 max=20 value=12&gt;12cm&lt;/meter&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt;Height: &lt;dd&gt; &lt;meter min=0 max=10 value=2&gt;2cm&lt;/meter&gt;
&lt;/dl&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>There is no explicit way to specify units in the <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code> element, but the units may
  be specified in the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code> attribute in free-form text.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The example above could be extended to mention the units:</p>

   <pre>&lt;dl&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt;Radius: &lt;dd&gt; &lt;meter min=0 max=20 value=12 title="centimeters"&gt;12cm&lt;/meter&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt;Height: &lt;dd&gt; &lt;meter min=0 max=10 value=2 title="centimeters"&gt;2cm&lt;/meter&gt;

    <p>If the candidate optimum point is less than the minimum value, then the optimum point is the
    minimum value.</p>

    <p>Otherwise, if the candidate optimum point is greater than the maximum value, then the optimum
    point is the maximum value.</p>

    <p>Otherwise, the optimum point is the candidate optimum point.</p>

   </dd>

  </dl>

  <p>All of which will result in the following inequalities all being true:</p>

  <ul class="brief">
   <li>minimum value ≤ actual value ≤ maximum value</li>
   <li>minimum value ≤ low boundary ≤ high boundary ≤ maximum value</li>
   <li>minimum value ≤ optimum point ≤ maximum value</li>
  </ul>

  <p><strong>UA requirements for regions of the gauge</strong>: If the optimum point is equal to the
  low boundary or the high boundary, or anywhere in between them, then the region between the low
  and high boundaries of the gauge must be treated as the optimum region, and the low and high
  parts, if any, must be treated as suboptimal. Otherwise, if the optimum point is less than the low
  boundary, then the region between the minimum value and the low boundary must be treated as the
  optimum region, the region from the low boundary up to the high boundary must be treated as a
  suboptimal region, and the remaining region must be treated as an even less good region. Finally,
  if the optimum point is higher than the high boundary, then the situation is reversed; the region
  between the high boundary and the maximum value must be treated as the optimum region, the region
  from the high boundary down to the low boundary must be treated as a suboptimal region, and the
  remaining region must be treated as an even less good region.</p>

  <p><strong>UA requirements for showing the gauge</strong>: When representing a <code><a href="#the-meter-element">meter</a></code>
  element to the user, the UA should indicate the relative position of the actual value to the
  minimum and maximum values, and the relationship between the actual value and the three regions of
  the gauge.</p>

  <h5 id="a-form-control's-value"><span class="secno">4.10.18.1 </span>A form control's value</h5>

  <p>Form controls have a <dfn id="concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</dfn>
  and a <dfn id="concept-fe-checked" title="concept-fe-checked">checkedness</dfn>. (The latter
  is only used by <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements.) These are used to
  describe how the user interacts with the control.</p>

  <p>To define the behaviour of constraint validation in the face of
  the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element's <code title="attr-input-multiple"><a href="#attr-input-multiple">multiple</a></code> attribute,
  <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements can also have separately defined <dfn id="concept-fe-values" title="concept-fe-values">value<em>s</em></dfn>.</p>


  <h5 id="mutability"><span class="secno">4.10.18.2 </span>Mutability</h5>

  <p>A form control can be designated as <dfn id="concept-fe-mutable" title="concept-fe-mutable"><i>mutable</i></dfn>.</p>

  <p class="note">This determines (by means of definitions and
  requirements in this specification that rely on whether an element
  is so designated) whether or not the user can modify the <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> or <a href="#concept-fe-checked" title="concept-fe-checked">checkedness</a> of a form control, or
  whether or not a control can be automatically prefilled.</p>


  <h5 id="association-of-controls-and-forms"><span class="secno">4.10.18.3 </span>Association of controls and forms</h5>

  <p>A <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> can have a relationship with a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code>
  element, which is called the element's <dfn id="form-owner">form owner</dfn>. If a <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated
  element</a> is not associated with a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element, its <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> is
  said to be null.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> is, by default, associated with its <span class="impl">nearest</span> ancestor <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element<span class="impl"> (as described
  below)</span>, but, if it is <a href="#category-form-attr" title="category-form-attr">reassociateable</a>, may have a
  <dfn id="attr-fae-form" title="attr-fae-form"><code>form</code></dfn> attribute specified to override this.</p>

  <p class="note">This feature allows authors to work around the lack of support for nested
  <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> elements.</p>

  <p>If a <a href="#category-form-attr" title="category-form-attr">reassociateable</a> <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> has a <code title="attr-fae-form"><a href="#attr-fae-form">form</a></code>

  a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element in the element's owner <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p class="note">The rules in this section are complicated by the fact that although conforming
  documents will never contain nested <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> elements, it is quite possible (e.g. using a
  script that performs DOM manipulation) to generate documents that have such nested elements. They
  are also complicated by rules in the HTML parser that, for historical reasons, can result in a
  <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> being associated with a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element that is not
  its ancestor.</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> is created, its <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> must be
  initialized to null (no owner).</p>

  <p>When a <a href="#form-associated-element">form-associated element</a> is to be <dfn id="concept-form-association" title="concept-form-association">associated</dfn> with a form, its <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> must be

  <p>When an element is <a href="#remove-an-element-from-a-document" title="remove an element from a document">removed from a

   <p>The <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> of "d" would be the inner nested form "c", while the <a href="#form-owner">form

   <p>This happens as follows: First, the "e" node gets associated with "c" in the <a href="#html-parser">HTML

  <p>The "<dfn id="attr-fe-autocomplete-off" title="attr-fe-autocomplete-off"><code>off</code></dfn>" keyword
  indicates either that the control's input data is particularly
  sensitive (for example the activation code for a nuclear weapon); or
  that it is a value that will never be reused (for example a
  one-time-key for a bank login) and the user will therefore have to
  explicitly enter the data each time, instead of being able to rely
  on the UA to prefill the value for him; or that the document
  provides its own autocomplete mechanism and does not want the user
  agent to provide autocompletion values.</p>

  <p>The "<dfn id="attr-fe-autocomplete-on" title="attr-fe-autocomplete-on"><code>on</code></dfn>"
  keyword indicates that the user agent is allowed to provide the user
  with autocompletion values, but does not provide any further
  information about what kind of data the user might be expected to
  enter. User agents would have to use heuristics to decide what
  autocompletion values to suggest.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="autofill-field" title="autofill field">autofill fields</dfn> names
  listed above indicate that the user agent is allowed to provide the
  user with autocompletion values, and specifies what kind of value is
  expected. The keywords relate to each other as described in the
  table below. Each field name listed on a row of this table
  corresponds to the meaning given in the cell for that row in the
  column labeled "Meaning". Some fields correspond to subparts of
  other fields; for example, a credit card expiry date can be
  expressed as one field giving both the month and year of expiry
  ("<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp">cc-exp</a></code>"), or as
  two fields, one giving the month ("<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-month"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-month">cc-exp-month</a></code>") and
  one the year ("<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-year"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-year">cc-exp-year</a></code>"). In
  such cases, the names of the broader fields cover multiple rows, in
  which the narrower fields are defined.</p>

  <p class="note">Generally, authors are encouraged to use the broader
  fields rather than the narrower fields, as the narrower fields tend
  to expose Western biases. For example, while it is common in some
  Western cultures to have a given name and a family name, in that
  order (and thus often referred to as a <i>first name</i> and a
  <i>surname</i>), many cultures put the family name first and the
  given name second, and many others simply have one name (a
  <i>mononym</i>). Having a single field is therefore more
  flexible.</p>

  <p>When an element's <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field name</a> is "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-off"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-off">off</a></code>", the user agent should

  values to the user.</p>

  <p class="note">In addition, when an element's <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field

   <pre>&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;Account: &lt;input type="text" name="ac" autocomplete="off"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;label&gt;PIN: &lt;input type="password" name="pin" autocomplete="off"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>When an element's <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field name</a> is
  <em>not</em> "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-off"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-off">off</a></code>",
  the user agent may store the control's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a>, and may offer previously
  stored values to the user.</p>

  <p>When the <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field name</a> is "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-on"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-on">on</a></code>", the user agent should
  attempt to use heuristics to determine the most appropriate values
  to offer the user, e.g. based on the element's <code title="attr-fe-name"><a href="#attr-fe-name">name</a></code> value, the position of the element
  in the document's DOM, what other fields exist in the form, and so
  forth.</p>

  <p>When the <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field name</a> is one of the names of
  the <a href="#autofill-field" title="autofill field">autofill fields</a> described
  above, the user agent should provide suggestions that match the
  meaning of the field name as given in the table earlier in this
  section. The <a href="#autofill-hint-set">autofill hint set</a> should be used to select
  amongst multiple possible suggestions.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if a user once entered one address
  into fields that used the "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-shipping"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-shipping">shipping</a></code>" keyword, and
  another address into fields that used the "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-billing"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-billing">billing</a></code>" keyword, then
  in subsequent forms only the first address would be suggested for
  form controls whose <a href="#autofill-hint-set">autofill hint set</a> contains the
  keyword "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-shipping"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-shipping">shipping</a></code>". Both
  addresses might be suggested, however, for address-related form
  controls whose <a href="#autofill-hint-set">autofill hint set</a> does not contain
  either keyword.</p>

  <p>When the user agent autofills form controls, elements with the same <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> and
  the same <a href="#autofill-scope">autofill scope</a> must use data relating to the same person, address, payment
  instrument, and contact details. <span id="autofill-country" title="">When a user agent autofills
  "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-country"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-country">country</a></code>" and "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-country-name"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-country-name">country-name</a></code>" fields with the same <a href="#form-owner">form
  owner</a> and <a href="#autofill-scope">autofill scope</a>, and the user agent has a value for the <code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-country"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-country">country</a></code>" field(s), then the "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-country-name"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-country-name">country-name</a></code>" field(s) must be filled using a
  human-readable name for the same country.</span> When a user agent fills in multiple fields at
  once, all fields with the same <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field name</a>, <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> and
  <a href="#autofill-scope">autofill scope</a> must be filled with the same value.</p>

  <p class="example">Suppose a user agent knows of two phone numbers,
  +1 555 123 1234 and +1 555 666 7777. It would not be conforming for
  the user agent to fill a field with <code title="">autocomplete="shipping tel-local-prefix"</code> with the
  value "123" and another field in the same form with <code title="">autocomplete="shipping tel-local-suffix"</code> with the
  value "7777". The only valid prefilled values given the
  aforementioned information would be "123" and "1234", or "666" and
  "7777", respectively.</p>

  <p class="example">Similarly, if a form for some reason contained
  both a "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp">cc-exp</a></code>"
  field and a "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-month"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-cc-exp-month">cc-exp-month</a></code>"
  field, and the user agent prefilled the form, then the month
  component of the former would have to match the latter.</p>

  <p>The autocompletion mechanism must be implemented by the user
  agent acting as if the user had modified the element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a>, and must be done at a time
  where the element is <i title="concept-fe-mutable"><a href="#concept-fe-mutable">mutable</a></i> (e.g.
  just after the element has been inserted into the document, or when
  the user agent <a href="#stop-parsing" title="stop parsing">stops parsing</a>).
  User agents must only prefill controls using values that the user
  could have entered.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if a <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element
  only has <code><a href="#the-option-element">option</a></code> elements with values "Steve" and
  "Rebecca", "Jay", and "Bob", and has an <a href="#autofill-field-name">autofill field
  name</a> "<code title="attr-fe-autocomplete-given-name"><a href="#attr-fe-autocomplete-given-name">given-name</a></code>", but the
  user agent's only idea for what to prefill the field with is "Evan",
  then the user agent cannot prefill the field. It would not be
  conforming to somehow set the <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element to the
  value "Evan", since the user could not have done so themselves.</p>

  <p>A user agent prefilling a form control's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> must not cause that control to
  <a href="#suffering-from-a-type-mismatch" title="suffering from a type mismatch">suffer from a type
  mismatch</a>, <a href="#suffering-from-a-pattern-mismatch" title="suffering from a pattern
  mismatch">suffer from a pattern mismatch</a>, <a href="#suffering-from-being-too-long" title="suffering from being too long">suffer from being too
  long</a>, <a href="#suffering-from-an-underflow" title="suffering from an underflow">suffer from
  an underflow</a>, <a href="#suffering-from-an-overflow" title="suffering from an overflow">suffer
  from an overflow</a>, or <a href="#suffering-from-a-step-mismatch" title="suffering from a step
  mismatch">suffer from a step mismatch</a>. Where possible given the control's constraints, user
  agents must use the format given as canonical in the aforementioned table. Where it's not possible
  for the canonical format to be used, user agents should use heuristics to attempt to convert values so that
  they can be used.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, if the user agent knows that the user's middle name
   is "Ines", and attempts to prefill a form control that looks like this:</p>

   <pre>&lt;input name=middle-initial maxlength=1 autocomplete="additional-name"&gt;</pre>

   <p>...then the user agent could convert "Ines" to "I" and prefill
   it that way.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>A more elaborate example would be with month values. If the user
   agent knows that the user's birthday is the 27th of July 2012, then
   it might try to prefill all of the following controls with slightly
   different values, all driven from this information:</p>

   <table>
    <tbody><tr>
     <td>
      <pre>&lt;input name=b type=month autocomplete="bday"&gt;</pre>
     </td><td>
      2012-07
     </td><td>
      The day is dropped since the <a href="#month-state-(type=month)" title="attr-input-type-month">Month</a> state only accepts a
      month/year combination.
    </td></tr><tr>
     <td>
      <pre>&lt;select name=c autocomplete="bday"&gt;
 &lt;option&gt;Jan

 &lt;option&gt;Jul
 &lt;option&gt;Aug
 <em>...</em>
&lt;/select&gt;</pre>
     </td><td>
      July
     </td><td>
      The user agent picks the month from the listed options, either
      by noticing there are twelve options and picking the 7th, or by
      recognising that one of the strings (three characters "Jul"
      followed by a newline and a space) is a close match for the name
      of the month (July) in one of the user agent's supported
      languages, or through some other similar mechanism.

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements define
  the following members in their DOM interfaces for handling their
  selection:</p>

  <pre class="idl extract">  void <a href="#dom-textarea/input-select" title="dom-textarea/input-select">select</a>();

  <!-- v2: also add textLength? it seems to be widely used -->

  <p>The <code title="dom-textarea/input-setRangeText"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-setrangetext">setRangeText</a></code> method
  uses the following enumeration:</p>

  <pre class="idl">enum <dfn id="selectionmode">SelectionMode</dfn> {

  "<a href="#dom-selectionmode-preserve" title="dom-SelectionMode-preserve">preserve</a>",
};</pre>

  <p>These methods and attributes expose and control the selection of
  <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> text fields.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>For <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements, calling these methods while they <a href="#do-not-apply" title="do not
  apply">don't apply</a>, and getting or setting these attributes while they <a href="#do-not-apply" title="do not
  apply">don't apply</a>, must throw an <code><a href="#invalidstateerror">InvalidStateError</a></code> exception. Otherwise, they
  must act as described below.</p>

  <p>For <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements, these methods and attributes must operate on the element's
  <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a>. For <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements, these methods and
  attributes must operate on the element's <a href="#concept-textarea-raw-value" title="concept-textarea-raw-value">raw
  value</a>.</p>

  <p>Where possible, user interface features for changing the text selection in <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code>
  and <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements must be implemented in terms of the DOM API described in this
  section, so that, e.g., all the same events fire.</p>


  <p>The selections of <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements have a
  <i>direction</i>, which is either <i>forward</i>, <i>backward</i>, or <i>none</i>. This direction
  is set when the user manipulates the selection. The exact meaning of the selection direction
  depends on the platform.</p>

  <p class="note">On Windows, the direction indicates the position of the caret relative to the
  selection: a <i>forward</i> selection has the caret at the end of the selection and a
  <i>backward</i> selection has the caret at the start of the selection. Windows has no <i>none</i>
  direction. On Mac, the direction indicates which end of the selection is affected when the user
  adjusts the size of the selection using the arrow keys with the Shift modifier: the forward
  direction means the end of the selection is modified, and the backwards direction means the start
  of the selection is modified. The none direction is the default on Mac, it indicates that no
  particular direction has yet been selected. The user sets the direction implicitly when first
  adjusting the selection, based on which directional arrow key was used.</p>


  <p>The <dfn id="dom-textarea/input-select" title="dom-textarea/input-select"><code>select()</code></dfn> method must cause the
  contents of the text field to be fully selected, with the selection direction being none, if the
  platform support selections with the direction <i>none</i>, or otherwise <i>forward</i>. The user
  agent must then <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named
  <code title="event-select">select</code> at the element, using the <a href="#user-interaction-task-source">user interaction task
  source</a> as the task source.</p>


  <p>The <dfn id="dom-textarea/input-selectionstart" title="dom-textarea/input-selectionStart"><code>selectionStart</code></dfn> attribute
  must, on getting, return the offset (in logical order) to the character that immediately follows
  the start of the selection. If there is no selection, then it must return the offset (in logical
  order) to the character that immediately follows the text entry cursor.</p>

  <p>On setting, it must act as if the <code title="dom-textarea/input-setSelectionRange"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-setselectionrange">setSelectionRange()</a></code> method had been called,
  with the new value as the first argument; the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionEnd"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectionend">selectionEnd</a></code> attribute as the second argument,
  unless the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionEnd"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectionend">selectionEnd</a></code>
  is less than the new value, in which case the second argument must also be the new value; and the
  current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionDirection"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectiondirection">selectionDirection</a></code>
  as the third argument.</p>


  <p>The <dfn id="dom-textarea/input-selectionend" title="dom-textarea/input-selectionEnd"><code>selectionEnd</code></dfn> attribute
  must, on getting, return the offset (in logical order) to the character that immediately follows
  the end of the selection. If there is no selection, then it must return the offset (in logical
  order) to the character that immediately follows the text entry cursor.</p>

  <p>On setting, it must act as if the <code title="dom-textarea/input-setSelectionRange"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-setselectionrange">setSelectionRange()</a></code> method had been called,
  with the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionStart"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectionstart">selectionStart</a></code> attribute as the first argument,
  the new value as the second argument, and the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionDirection"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectiondirection">selectionDirection</a></code> as the third argument.</p>


  <p>The <dfn id="dom-textarea/input-selectiondirection" title="dom-textarea/input-selectionDirection"><code>selectionDirection</code></dfn>
  attribute must, on getting, return the string corresponding to the current selection direction: if
  the direction is <i>forward</i>, "<code title="">forward</code>"; if the direction is
  <i>backward</i>, "<code title="">backward</code>"; and otherwise, "<code title="">none</code>".</p>

  <p>On setting, it must act as if the <code title="dom-textarea/input-setSelectionRange"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-setselectionrange">setSelectionRange()</a></code> method had been called,
  with the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionStart"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectionstart">selectionStart</a></code> attribute as the first argument,
  the current value of the <code title="dom-textarea/input-selectionEnd"><a href="#dom-textarea/input-selectionend">selectionEnd</a></code>
  attribute as the second argument, and the new value as the third argument.</p>


  <p>The <dfn id="dom-textarea/input-setselectionrange" title="dom-textarea/input-setSelectionRange"><code>setSelectionRange(<var title="">start</var>, <var title="">end</var>, <var title="">direction</var>)</code></dfn> method
  must set the selection of the text field to the sequence of characters starting with the character
  at the <var title="">start</var>th position (in logical order) and ending with the character at
  the <span title="">(<var title="">end</var>-1)</span>th position. Arguments greater than the
  length of the value of the text field must be treated as pointing at the end of the text field. If
  <var title="">end</var> is less than or equal to <var title="">start</var> then the start of the
  selection and the end of the selection must both be placed immediately before the character with
  offset <var title="">end</var>. In UAs where there is no concept of an empty selection, this must
  set the cursor to be just before the character with offset <var title="">end</var>. The direction
  of the selection must be set to <i>backward</i> if <var title="">direction</var> is a
  <a href="#case-sensitive">case-sensitive</a> match for the string "<code title="">backward</code>", <i>forward</i>
  if <var title="">direction</var> is a <a href="#case-sensitive">case-sensitive</a> match for the string "<code title="">forward</code>" or if the platform does not support selections with the direction
  <i>none</i>, and <i>none</i> otherwise (including if the argument is omitted). The user agent must
  then <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> that bubbles named <code title="event-select">select</code> at the element, using the <a href="#user-interaction-task-source">user interaction task

  either a <i>positive</i> result (all the controls in the form are valid) or a <i>negative</i>
  result (there are invalid controls) along with a (possibly empty) list of elements that are
  invalid and for which no script has claimed responsibility:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>Let <var title="">controls</var> be a list of all the <a href="#category-submit" title="category-submit">submittable elements</a> whose <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> is <var title="">form</var>, in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a>.</p></li>

  </div>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>When a form is submitted, the data in the form is converted into
  the structure specified by the <a href="#concept-fs-enctype" title="concept-fs-enctype">enctype</a>, and then sent to the
  destination specified by the <a href="#concept-fs-action" title="concept-fs-action">action</a> using the given <a href="#concept-fs-method" title="concept-fs-method">method</a>.</p>

  <p>For example, take the following form:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form action="/find.cgi" method=get&gt;
 &lt;input type=text name=t&gt;
 &lt;input type=search name=q&gt;
 &lt;input type=submit&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>If the user types in "cats" in the first field and "fur" in the
  second, and then hits the submit button, then the user agent will
  load <code title="">/find.cgi?t=cats&amp;q=fur</code>.</p>

  <p>On the other hand, consider this form:</p>

  <pre>&lt;form action="/find.cgi" method=post enctype="multipart/form-data"&gt;
 &lt;input type=text name=t&gt;
 &lt;input type=search name=q&gt;
 &lt;input type=submit&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

  <p>Given the same user input, the result on submission is quite
  different: the user agent instead does an HTTP POST to the given
  URL, with as the entity body something like the following text:</p>

  <pre>------kYFrd4jNJEgCervE
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="t"

cats
------kYFrd4jNJEgCervE
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="q"

  <h5 id="implicit-submission"><span class="secno">4.10.22.2 </span>Implicit submission</h5>

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element's <dfn id="default-button">default button</dfn> is the
  first <a href="#concept-submit-button" title="concept-submit-button">submit button</a> in
  <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a> whose <a href="#form-owner">form owner</a> is that
  <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>If the user agent supports letting the user submit a form
  implicitly (for example, on some platforms hitting the "enter" key
  while a text field is focused implicitly submits the form), then
  doing so for a form whose <a href="#default-button">default button</a> has a defined
  <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> must cause the user agent to
  <a href="#run-synthetic-click-activation-steps">run synthetic click activation steps</a> on that
  <a href="#default-button">default button</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">Consequently, if the <a href="#default-button">default button</a> is
  <a href="#concept-fe-disabled" title="concept-fe-disabled">disabled</a>, the form is not
  submitted when such an implicit submission mechanism is used. (A
  button has no <a href="#activation-behavior">activation behavior</a> when disabled.)</p>

  <p class="note">There are pages on the Web that are only usable if
  there is a way to implicitly submit forms, so user agents are
  strongly encouraged to support this.</p>

  <p><!-- For Web compatibility reasons caused by obscure historical
  accidents, -->If the form has no <a href="#concept-submit-button" title="concept-submit-button">submit button</a>, then the
  implicit submission mechanism must do nothing if the form has more
  than one <i>field that blocks implicit submission</i>, and must

  <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element from the <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element itself
  otherwise.</p>

  <p>For the purpose of the previous paragraph, an element is a
  <i>field that blocks implicit submission</i> of a <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code>

    return the resulting byte stream. <a href="#refsRFC2388">[RFC2388]</a></p>

    <p>Each entry in the <var title="">form data set</var> is a
    <i>field</i>, the name of the entry is the <i>field name</i> and
    the value of the entry is the <i>field value</i>.</p>

    <p>The order of parts must be the same as the order of fields in
    the <var title="">form data set</var>. Multiple entries with the
    same name must be treated as distinct fields.</p>

    <p class="note">In particular, this means that multiple files
    submitted as part of a single <code title="">&lt;input type=file multiple&gt;</code> element
    will result in each file having its own field; the "sets of files"
    feature ("<code title="">multipart/mixed</code>") of RFC 2388 is
    not used.</p>

    <p>The parts of the generated <code title="">multipart/form-data</code> resource that correspond to
    non-file fields must not have a <code><a href="#content-type">Content-Type</a></code> header
    specified. Their names and values must be encoded using the
    character encoding selected above (field names in particular do
    not get converted to a 7-bit safe encoding as suggested in RFC
    2388).</p>

    <p>File names included in the generated <code title="">multipart/form-data</code> resource (as part of file
    fields) must use the character encoding selected above, though the
    precise name may be approximated if necessary (e.g. newlines could
    be removed from file names, quotes could be changed to "%22", and
    characters not expressible in the selected character encoding
    could be replaced by other characters). User agents must not use
    the RFC 2231 encoding suggested by RFC 2388.</p> <!-- this isn't a
    willful violation since 2388 doesn't make it a requirement, it
    just vaguely suggests it -->

    <p>The boundary used by the user agent in generating the return
    value of this algorithm is the <dfn id="multipart/form-data-boundary-string"><code title="">multipart/form-data</code> boundary string</dfn>. (This

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-menuitem-element">menuitem</a></code> element represents a command that the user can invoke from a popup

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-menuitem-element">menuitem</a></code> element that uses one or more of the

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-menuitem-element">menuitem</a></code> element that uses the <code title="attr-menuitem-command"><a href="#attr-menuitem-command">command</a></code> attribute defines a command by reference to another

  disabled) in one place, and have all references to that command in the user interface change at
  the same time.</p>

  <p>If the <code title="attr-menuitem-command"><a href="#attr-menuitem-command">command</a></code> attribute is specified, the element
  is in the <dfn id="indirect-command">indirect command</dfn> mode. If it is not specified, it is in the <dfn id="explicit-command">explicit

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-menuitem-label" title="attr-menuitem-label"><code>label</code></dfn> attribute gives the name of the
  command, as shown to the user. The <code title="attr-menuitem-label"><a href="#attr-menuitem-label">label</a></code> attribute must
  be specified if the element is in the <a href="#explicit-command">explicit command</a> mode. If the attribute is
  specified, it must have a value that is not the empty string.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-menuitem-icon" title="attr-menuitem-icon"><code>icon</code></dfn> attribute gives a picture that
  represents the command. If the attribute is specified, the attribute's value must contain a
  <a href="#valid-non-empty-url-potentially-surrounded-by-spaces">valid non-empty URL potentially surrounded by spaces</a>. <span class="impl">To obtain
  the <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> of the icon when the attribute's value is not the empty string, the

  When the attribute is absent, or its value is the empty string, or <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a

  <p class="note">The distinction between <code title="attr-menuitem-disabled"><a href="#attr-menuitem-disabled">disabled</a></code> and
  <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> is subtle. A command would be disabled if, in the same
  context, it could be enabled if only certain aspects of the situation were changed. A command
  would be marked as hidden if, in that situation, the command will never be enabled. For example,
  in the context menu for a water faucet, the command "open" might be disabled if the faucet is
  already open, but the command "eat" would be marked hidden since the faucet could never be
  eaten.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-menuitem-checked" title="attr-menuitem-checked"><code>checked</code></dfn> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean
  attribute</a> that, if present, indicates that the command is selected. The attribute must be

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-menuitem-radiogroup" title="attr-menuitem-radiogroup"><code>radiogroup</code></dfn> attribute gives the
  name of the group of commands that will be toggled when the command itself is toggled, for
  commands whose <code title="attr-menuitem-type"><a href="#attr-menuitem-type">type</a></code> attribute has the value "<code title="">radio</code>". The scope of the name is the child list of the parent element. The

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-contextmenu" title="attr-contextmenu"><code>contextmenu</code></dfn> attribute gives the element's
  context menu. The value must be the <a href="#concept-id" title="concept-id">ID</a> of a <code><a href="#the-menu-element">menu</a></code>
  element in the same <a href="#home-subtree">home subtree</a> whose <code title="attr-menu-type"><a href="#attr-menu-type">type</a></code>
  attribute is in the <a href="#popup-menu-state" title="popup menu state">popup menu</a> state.</p>

  <p class="note">When a user requests a context menu for an element (for example by using a pointing 
  device or keyboard key to make the request) and the element has a <code title="attr-contextmenu"><a href="#attr-contextmenu">contextmenu</a></code> attribute, the user agent will first fire a <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code> event at the element, and then, if that event is not
  canceled, a <code title="event-show">show</code> event at the <code><a href="#the-menu-element">menu</a></code> element.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here is an example of a context menu for an input control:</p>

   <pre>&lt;form name="npc"&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;Character name: &lt;input name=char type=text contextmenu=namemenu required&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
 &lt;menu type=popup id=namemenu&gt;
  &lt;menuitem label="Pick random name" onclick="document.forms.npc.elements.char.value = getRandomName()"&gt;
  &lt;menuitem label="Prefill other fields based on name" onclick="prefillFields(document.forms.npc.elements.char.value)"&gt;
 &lt;/menu&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</pre>

   <p>This adds two items to the control's context menu, one called "Pick random name", and one
   called "Prefill other fields based on name". They invoke scripts that are not shown in the
   example above.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <h5 id="processing-model-2"><span class="secno">4.11.5.2 </span>Processing model</h5>

  <p>Each element has an <dfn id="assigned-context-menu">assigned context menu</dfn>, which can be null. If an element <var title="">A</var> has a <code title="attr-contextmenu"><a href="#attr-contextmenu">contextmenu</a></code> attribute, and there is
  an element with the ID given by <var title="">A</var>'s <code title="attr-contextmenu"><a href="#attr-contextmenu">contextmenu</a></code> attribute's value in <var title="">A</var>'s
  <a href="#home-subtree">home subtree</a>, and the first such element in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a> is a
  <code><a href="#the-menu-element">menu</a></code> element whose <code title="attr-menu-type"><a href="#attr-menu-type">type</a></code> attribute is in the <a href="#popup-menu-state" title="popup menu state">popup menu</a> state, then <var title="">A</var>'s <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned
  context menu</a> is that element. Otherwise, if <var title="">A</var> has a parent element,
  then <var title="">A</var>'s <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context menu</a> is the <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context
  menu</a> of its parent element. Otherwise, <var title="">A</var>'s <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context
  menu</a> is null.</p>

  <p>When an element's context menu is requested (e.g. by the user right-clicking the element, or
  pressing a context menu key), the user agent must apply the appropriate rules from the following
  list:</p>

  <dl class="switch">

   <dt>If the user requested a context menu using a pointing device</dt>

   <dd><p>The user agent must <a href="#concept-event-fire" title="concept-event-fire">fire</a> a <a href="#concept-events-trusted" title="concept-events-trusted">trusted</a> event with the name <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code>, that bubbles and is cancelable, and that uses the
   <code><a href="#mouseevent">MouseEvent</a></code> interface, at the element for which the menu was requested. The context
   information of the event must be initialized to the same values as the last
   <code><a href="#mouseevent">MouseEvent</a></code> user interaction event that was fired as part of the gesture that
   was interpreted as a request for the context menu.</p></dd>

   <dt>Otherwise</dt>

   <dd><p>The user agent must <a href="#fire-a-synthetic-mouse-event" title="fire a synthetic mouse event">fire a synthetic mouse
   event named <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code></a> that bubbles and is
   cancelable at the element for which the menu was requested.</p></dd>

  </dl>

  <p class="note">Typically, therefore, the firing of the <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code> event will be the default action of a <code title="mouseup">mouseup</code> or <code title="event-keyup">keyup</code> event. The exact sequence
  of events is UA-dependent, as it will vary based on platform conventions.</p>

  <p>The default action of the <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code> event depends on
  whether or not the element for which the menu was requested has a non-null <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context
  menu</a> when the event dispatch has completed, as follows.</p>

  <p>If the <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context menu</a> of the element for which the menu was requested is
  null, the default action must be for the user agent to show its default context menu, if it has
  one.</p>

  <p>Otherwise, let <var title="">subject</var> be the element for which the menu was requested, and
  let <var title="">menu</var> be the <a href="#assigned-context-menu">assigned context menu</a> of <var title="">target</var> immediately after the <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code>
  event's dispatch has completed. The user agent must <a href="#concept-event-fire" title="concept-event-fire">fire</a> a
  <a href="#concept-events-trusted" title="concept-events-trusted">trusted</a> event with the name <code title="event-show">show</code> at <var title="">menu</var>, using the <code><a href="#relatedevent">RelatedEvent</a></code>
  interface, with the <code title="dom-RelatedEvent-relatedTarget"><a href="#dom-relatedevent-relatedtarget">relatedTarget</a></code> attribute
  initialized to <var title="">subject</var>. The event must be cancelable. <!-- v2: include
  modifier key information --></p>

  <p>If <em>this</em> event (the <code title="event-show">show</code> event) is not canceled, then
  the user agent must <a href="#construct-and-show-a-menu" title="construct and show a menu">construct and show</a> the menu for
  <var title="">menu</var> with <var title="">subject</var> as the subject.</p>

  <p>The user agent may also provide access to its default context menu, if any, with the context
  menu shown. For example, it could merge the menu items from the two menus together, or provide the
  page's context menu as a submenu of the default menu. In general, user agents are encouraged to
  de-emphasize their own contextual menu items, so as to give the author's context menu the
  appearance of legitimacy — to allow documents to feel like "applications" rather than "mere
  Web pages".</p>

  <p>User agents may provide means for bypassing the context menu processing model, ensuring that
  the user can always access the UA's default context menus. For example, the user agent could
  handle right-clicks that have the Shift key depressed in such a way that it does not fire the
  <code title="event-contextmenu">contextmenu</code> event and instead always shows the default
  context menu.</p>

 &lt;menuitem label="Pet the kittens" onclick="kittens.pet()"&gt;

  &lt;menuitem label="Chicken" onclick="kittens.feed(chicken)"&gt;
 &lt;/menu&gt;
&lt;/menu&gt;</pre>

   <p>When a user of a mouse-operated visual Web browser right-clicks on the image, the browser

   <p><img alt="A context menu, shown over a picture of cats, with four lines: the first two offering the menu items described in the markup above ('Pet the kittens' and 'Cuddle with the kittens'), the third giving a submenu labeled 'Feed the kittens', and the fourth, after a horizontal splitter, consisting of only a downwards-pointing disclosure triangle." src="images/contextmenu-collapsed.png">

   </p><p>When the user clicks the disclosure triangle, such a user agent would expand the context menu
   in place, to show the browser's own commands:</p>

   <p><img alt="This would result in the same basic interface, but with a longer menu; the disclosure triangle having been replaced by items such as 'View Image', 'Copy Image', 'Copy Image Location', and so forth." src="images/contextmenu-expanded.png">

  <p>The containing block of all <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> elements that are <i>absolutely positioned</i>

  <p>All <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> elements are always in one of two modes: <dfn id="mundanely-aligned">mundanely aligned</dfn>,
  or <dfn id="magically-aligned">magically aligned</dfn>. When a <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element is created, it must be placed

  position</a> for that element, without an anchor.</p>

  <p>When a user agent is to <dfn id="set-up-the-default-static-position">set up the default static position</dfn> of an element <var title="">subject</var> without an anchor, if that element is <a href="#being-rendered">being rendered</a>, it must
  set up the element such that its top static position, for the purposes of calculating the used
  value of the 'top' property, is the value that would place the element's top margin edge as far
  from the top of the viewport as the element's bottom margin edge from the bottom of the viewport,
  if the element's height is less than the height of the viewport, and otherwise is the value that
  would place the element's top margin edge at the top of the viewport.</p>

  <p>If there is a <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element that is <a href="#mundanely-aligned">mundanely aligned</a> and that is
  <a href="#being-rendered">being rendered</a> when its <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> changes viewport width (as
  measured in CSS pixels), then the user agent must <a href="#set-up-the-default-static-position">set up the default static position</a>
  of all such elements in that <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> again, still without anchors.</p>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element that is <a href="#mundanely-aligned">mundanely aligned</a> starts <a href="#being-rendered">being

  element, without an anchor.</p>

  <p>This top static position of a <a href="#mundanely-aligned">mundanely aligned</a> <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element must
  remain the element's top static position until the <a href="#set-up-the-default-static-position">set up the default static position</a>
  algorithm is once again invoked for that element. (The element's static position is only used in
  calculating the used value of the 'top' property in certain situations; it's not used, for
  instance, to position the element if its 'position' property is set to 'static'.)</p>

  <p>When a user agent is to <dfn id="set-up-the-position">set up the position</dfn> of an element <var title="">subject</var> using an anchor <var title="">anchor</var>, it must run the following
  steps:</p>

  <ol>

    <p>If <var title="">anchor</var> is a <code><a href="#mouseevent">MouseEvent</a></code> object, then run these
    substeps:</p>

    <ol>

     <li><p>If <var title="">anchor</var>'s target element does not have a rendered box, or is in a
     different document than <var title="">subject</var>, then let <var title="">subject</var> be
     <a href="#mundanely-aligned">mundanely aligned</a>, <a href="#set-up-the-default-static-position">set up the default static position</a> of <var title="">subject</var> without an anchor, and abort the <a href="#set-up-the-position">set up the position</a>
     steps.</p></li>

     <li><p>Let <var title="">anchor element</var> be an anonymous element rendered as a box with
     zero height and width (so its margin and border boxes both just form a point), positioned so
     that its top and left are at the coordinate identified by the event, and whose properties all
     compute to their initial values.</p></li>

    </ol>

    <p>Otherwise, let <var title="">anchor element</var> be <var title="">anchor</var>.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>Let <var title="">subject</var> be <a href="#magically-aligned">magically aligned</a> to <var title="">anchor

    <p class="note">The rules above generally use <var title="">A</var>'s <em>margin</em> box, but
    <var title="">B</var>'s <em>border</em> box. This is because while <var title="">A</var> always
    has a margin box, and using the margin box allows for the dialog to be positioned offset from
    the box it is annotating, <var title="">B</var> sometimes does not have a margin box (e.g. if it
    is a table-cell), or has a margin box whose position may be not entirely clear (e.g. in the face
    of margin collapsing and 'clear' handling of in-flow blocks).</p>

    <p>In cases where <var title="">B</var> does not have a border box but its border box is used by
    the algorithm above, user agents must use its first box's content area instead. (This is in
    particular an issue with boxes in tables that have 'border-collapse' set to 'collapse'.)</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>When an element's 'position' property computes to '<dfn id="css-position-absolute-anchored" title="css-position-absolute-anchored">absolute-anchored</dfn>', the 'float' property does not
    apply and must compute to 'none', the 'display' property must compute to a value as described by
    the table in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#dis-pos-flo">the section of CSS
    2.1 describing the <cite>relationships between 'display', 'position', and 'float'</cite></a>,
    and the element's box must be positioned using the rules for absolute positioning but with its
    static position set such that if the box is positioned in its static position, its anchor point
    is exactly aligned over the anchor point of the element to which it is <a href="#magically-aligned">magically
    aligned</a>. Elements aligned in this way are <i>absolutely positioned</i>. For the purposes
    of determining the containing block of other elements, the '<a href="#css-position-absolute-anchored" title="css-position-absolute-anchored">absolute-anchored</a>' keyword must be treated like
    the 'absolute' keyword.</p>

   </li>

  </ul>

  <p class="note">The trivial example of an element that does not have a rendered box is one whose
  'display' property computes to 'none'. However, there are many other cases; e.g. table columns do
  not have boxes (their properties merely affect other boxes).</p>

  <p class="note">If an element to which another element is anchored changes rendering, the anchored
  element will be be repositioned accordingly. (In other words, the requirements above are live,
  they are not just calculated once per anchored element.)</p>

  <p class="note">The '<a href="#css-position-absolute-anchored" title="css-position-absolute-anchored">absolute-anchored</a>'
  keyword is not a keyword that can be specified in CSS; the 'position' property can only compute to
  this value if the <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element is positioned via the APIs described above.</p>

  <p class="note">Elements positioned in this way are not clipped by the 'overflow' property of
  ancestors (nor moved by the resulting scrolling mechanisms), since the containing block is the
  initial containing block. Anchoring to an element that <em>is</em> so clipped (and shifted) can
  therefore result in unexpected effects (where the anchored element moves along with the clipped
  element, but isn't itself clipped).</p>

  <p>The 'anchor-point' property specifies a point to which dialog boxes are to be aligned.</p>

  the horizontal position and its height for the vertical position). <a href="#refsCSSVALUES">[CSSVALUES]</a> <a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a></p>

  <h3 id="links"><span class="secno">4.12 </span>Links</h3>

  <h4 id="introduction-3"><span class="secno">4.12.1 </span>Introduction</h4>

  <p>Links are a conceptual construct, created by <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> elements, that <a href="#represents" title="represents">represent</a> a connection between two
  resources, one of which is the current <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>. There
  are two kinds of links in HTML:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt><dfn id="external-resource-link" title="external resource link">Links to external
   resources</dfn></dt>

   <dd><p>These are links to resources that are to be used to augment
   the current document, generally automatically processed by the user
   agent.</p></dd>

   <dt><dfn id="hyperlink" title="hyperlink">Hyperlinks</dfn></dt>

   <dd><p>These are links to other resources that are generally
   exposed to the user by the user agent so that the user can cause
   the user agent to <a href="#navigate">navigate</a> to those resources, e.g. to
   visit them in a browser or download them.</p></dd>

  </dl>

  <p>For <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> elements with an <code title="attr-link-href"><a href="#attr-link-href">href</a></code> attribute and a <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code> attribute, links must be created
  for the keywords of the <code title="attr-link-rel"><a href="#attr-link-rel">rel</a></code>
  attribute, as defined for those keywords in the <a href="#linkTypes">link types</a> section.</p>

  <p>Similarly, for <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> elements with
  an <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute and a
  <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code> attribute, links must be
  created for the keywords of the <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code> attribute as defined for those
  keywords in the <a href="#linkTypes">link types</a> section. Unlike
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code> elements, however, <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> and
  <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element with an <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute that either do not
  have a <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code> attribute, or

  linking the element's document to the resource given by the
  element's <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code>
  attribute.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a> can have one or more <dfn id="hyperlink-annotation" title="hyperlink annotation">hyperlink annotations</dfn> that modify

   <li>

    <p>Act in a user-agent-defined manner to safeguard the user from a      <!-- no C-D: a header on cross-origin raises red flags -->
    potentially hostile cross-origin download. If the download is not
    to be aborted, then let <var title="">filename</var> be set to the
    user's preferred file name or to a file name selected by the user
    agent, and jump to the step labeled <i>sanitize</i> below.</p>

    <div class="warning">

     <p>If the algorithm reaches this step, then a download was begun
     from a different origin than the resource being downloaded, and
     the origin did not mark the file as suitable for downloading, and
     the download was not initiated by the user. This could be because
     a <code title="attr-hyperlink-download"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-download">download</a></code> attribute
     was used to trigger the download, or because the resource in
     question is not of a type that the user agent supports.</p>

     <p>This could be dangerous, because, for instance, a hostile
     server could be trying to get a user to unknowingly download
     private information and then re-upload it to the hostile server,
     by tricking the user into thinking the data is from the hostile
     server.</p>

     <p>Thus, it is in the user's interests that the user be somehow
     notified that the resource in question comes from quite a
     different source, and to prevent confusion, any suggested
     file name from the potentially hostile <var title="">interface
     origin</var> should be ignored.</p>

    </div>

   </li>

   <li><p><i>Sanitize</i>: Optionally, allow the user to influence <var title="">filename</var>. For example, a user agent could prompt the
   user for a file name, potentially providing the value of <var title="">filename</var> as determined above as a default
   value.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>Adjust <var title="">filename</var> to be suitable for the
    local file system.</p>

    <p class="example">For example, this could involve removing
    characters that are not legal in file names, or trimming leading
    and trailing whitespace.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>If the platform conventions do not in any way use <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extensions</a> to determine the types
   of file on the file system, then return <var title="">filename</var> as the file name and abort these
   steps.</p></li>

   <li><p>Let <var title="">claimed type</var> be the type given by
   the resource's <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type
   metadata</a>, if any is known. Let <var title="">named
   type</var> be the type given by <var title="">filename</var>'s
   <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</a>, if any is known.
   For the purposes of this step, a <i>type</i> is a mapping of a
   <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> to an <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</a>.</p></li>

   <li><p>If <var title="">named type</var> is consistent with the
   user's preferences (e.g. because the value of <var title="">filename</var> was determined by prompting the user), then
   return <var title="">filename</var> as the file name and abort
   these steps.</p></li>

   <li><p>If <var title="">claimed type</var> and <var title="">named
   type</var> are the same type (i.e. the type given by the resource's
   <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a> is
   consistent with the type given by <var title="">filename</var>'s
   <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</a>), then return <var title="">filename</var> as the file name and abort these
   steps.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>If the <var title="">claimed type</var> is known, then alter
    <var title="">filename</var> to add an <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</a> corresponding to <var title="">claimed type</var>.</p>

    <p>Otherwise, if <var title="">named type</var> is known to be
    potentially dangerous (e.g. it will be treated by the platform
    conventions as a native executable, shell script, HTML
    application, or executable-macro-capable document) then optionally
    alter <var title="">filename</var> to add a known-safe <a href="#concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</a> (e.g. "<code title="">.txt</code>").</p>

    <p class="note">This last step would make it impossible to
    download executables, which might not be desirable. As always,
    implementors are forced to balance security and usability in this
    matter.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>Return <var title="">filename</var> as the file
   name.</p></li>

  </ol>

  <p>For the purposes of this algorithm, a file <dfn id="concept-extension" title="concept-extension">extension</dfn> consists of any part of
  the file name that platform conventions dictate will be used for
  identifying the type of the file. For example, many operating
  systems use the part of the file name following the last dot ("<code title="">.</code>") in the file name to determine the type of the
  file, and from that the manner in which the file is to be opened or
  executed.</p>

  <p>User agents should ignore any directory or path information
  provided by the resource itself, its <a href="#url">URL</a>, and any <code title="attr-hyperlink-download"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-download">download</a></code> attribute, in
  deciding where to store the resulting file in the user's file
  system.</p>

  <p>The following table summarizes the link types that are defined by
  this specification. This table is non-normative; the actual
  definitions for the link types are given in the next few
  sections.</p>

  <p>In this section, the term <i>referenced document</i> refers to
  the resource identified by the element representing the link, and
  the term <i>current document</i> refers to the resource within
  which the element representing the link finds itself.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>To determine which link types apply to a <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>, or <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code> element, the element's <code title="">rel</code> attribute must be <a href="#split-a-string-on-spaces" title="split a string on
  spaces">split on spaces</a>. The resulting tokens are the link
  types that apply to that element.</p>

  </div>

  <p>Except where otherwise specified, a keyword must not be specified
  more than once per <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code>
  attribute.</p>

  <p>Link types are always <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a><span class="impl">, and must be compared as such</span>.</p>

  <h5 id="sequential-link-types"><span class="secno">4.12.5.13 </span>Sequential link types</h5>

  <p>Some documents form part of a sequence of documents.</p>

  <p>A sequence of documents is one where each document can have a
  <em>previous sibling</em> and a <em>next sibling</em>. A document
  with no previous sibling is the start of its sequence, a document
  with no next sibling is the end of its sequence.</p>

  <p>A document may be part of multiple sequences.</p>


  <h6 id="link-type-next"><span class="secno">4.12.5.13.1 </span>Link type "<dfn title="rel-next"><code>next</code></dfn>"</h6>

  <p>The <code title="rel-next"><a href="#link-type-next">next</a></code> keyword may be used with
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>
  elements. This keyword creates a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a>.</p>

  <p>The <code title="rel-next"><a href="#link-type-next">next</a></code> keyword indicates that the
  document is part of a sequence, and that the link is leading to the
  document that is the next logical document in the sequence.</p>


  <h6 id="link-type-prev"><span class="secno">4.12.5.13.2 </span>Link type "<dfn title="rel-prev"><code>prev</code></dfn>"</h6>

  <p>The <code title="rel-prev"><a href="#link-type-prev">prev</a></code> keyword may be used with
  <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>
  elements. This keyword creates a <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a>.</p>

  <p>The <code title="rel-prev"><a href="#link-type-prev">prev</a></code> keyword indicates that the
  document is part of a sequence, and that the link is leading to the
  document that is the previous logical document in the sequence.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <!--FORK START-->
  <h4 id="sub-head"><span class="secno">4.13.1 </span>Subheadings, subtitles, alternative titles and taglines</h4>
  <p>HTML does not have a dedicated mechanism for marking up subheadings, alternative titles or taglines. Here are the suggested alternatives.</p>
 <p><code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h1</a></code>–<code><a href="#the-h1,-h2,-h3,-h4,-h5,-and-h6-elements">h6</a></code> elements must not be used to markup subheadings, subtitles, alternative titles and taglines unless intended to be the heading for a new section or subsection.</p>
  <div class="example">
   <p>In the following example the title and subtitles of a web page are grouped using a <code><a href="#the-header-element">header</a></code> element. 
   As the author does not want the subtitles to be included the table of contents and they are not intended to signify 
   the start of a new section, they are marked up using <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements. A sample CSS styled rendering of the
   title and subtitles is provided below the code example.</p>
   <pre>   &lt;header&gt;
   &lt;h1&gt;HTML 5.1 Nightly&lt;/h1&gt;

   place the album title on a new line. A sample CSS styled rendering of the heading is provided 
   below the code example.</p>

  <h4 id="tag-clouds"><span class="secno">4.13.3 </span>Tag clouds</h4>

  <p id="tag-cloud">This specification does not define any markup specifically for marking up lists
  of keywords that apply to a group of pages (also known as <i>tag clouds</i>). In general, authors
  are encouraged to either mark up such lists using <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> elements with explicit inline
  counts that are then hidden and turned into a presentational effect using a style sheet, or to use
  SVG.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Here, three tags are included in a short tag cloud:</p>

   <pre>&lt;style&gt;
@media screen, print, handheld, tv {
  /* should be ignored by non-visual browsers */
  .tag-cloud &gt; li &gt; span { display: none; }
  .tag-cloud &gt; li { display: inline; }
  .tag-cloud-1 { font-size: 0.7em; }
  .tag-cloud-2 { font-size: 0.9em; }
  .tag-cloud-3 { font-size: 1.1em; }
  .tag-cloud-4 { font-size: 1.3em; }
  .tag-cloud-5 { font-size: 1.5em; }
}
&lt;/style&gt;
...
&lt;ul class="tag-cloud"&gt;
 &lt;li class="tag-cloud-4"&gt;&lt;a title="28 instances" href="/t/apple"&gt;apple&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;(popular)&lt;/span&gt;
 &lt;li class="tag-cloud-2"&gt;&lt;a title="6 instances"  href="/t/kiwi"&gt;kiwi&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;(rare)&lt;/span&gt;
 &lt;li class="tag-cloud-5"&gt;&lt;a title="41 instances" href="/t/pear"&gt;pear&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;(very popular)&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</pre>

   <p>The actual frequency of each tag is given using the <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
   attribute. A CSS style sheet is provided to convert the markup into a cloud of differently-sized
   words, but for user agents that do not support CSS or are not visual, the markup contains
   annotations like "(popular)" or "(rare)" to categorize the various tags by frequency, thus
   enabling all users to benefit from the information.</p>

   <p>The <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> element is used (rather than <code><a href="#the-ol-element">ol</a></code>) because the order is not
   particularly important: while the list is in fact ordered alphabetically, it would convey the
   same information if ordered by, say, the length of the tag.</p>

   <p>The <code title="rel-tag"><a href="#link-type-tag">tag</a></code> <code title="attr-hyperlink-rel"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-rel">rel</a></code>-keyword is
   <em>not</em> used on these <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> elements because they do not represent tags that apply
   to the page itself; they are just part of an index listing the tags themselves.</p>

  <p>This specification does not define a specific element for marking
  up conversations, meeting minutes, chat transcripts, dialogues in
  screenplays, instant message logs, and other situations where
  different players take turns in discourse.</p>

  <p>Instead, authors are encouraged to mark up conversations using
  <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements and punctuation. Authors who need to mark
  the speaker for styling purposes are encouraged to use
  <code><a href="#the-span-element">span</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>. Paragraphs with their text
  wrapped in the <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element can be used for marking up
  stage directions.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>This example demonstrates this using an extract from Abbot and
   Costello's famous sketch, <cite>Who's on first</cite>:</p>

<pre>&lt;p&gt; Costello: Look, you gotta first baseman?
&lt;p&gt; Abbott: Certainly.
&lt;p&gt; Costello: Who's playing first?
&lt;p&gt; Abbott: That's right.
&lt;p&gt; Costello becomes exasperated.
&lt;p&gt; Costello: When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money?
&lt;p&gt; Abbott: Every dollar of it.</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The following extract shows how an IM conversation log could be
   marked up, using the <code><a href="#the-data-element">data</a></code> element to provide Unix
   timestamps for each line. Note that the timestamps are provided in
   a format that the <code><a href="#the-time-element">time</a></code> element does not support, so
   the <code><a href="#the-data-element">data</a></code> element is used instead (namely, Unix <code title="">time_t</code> timestamps). Had the author wished to mark
   up the data using one of the date and time formats supported by the
   <code><a href="#the-time-element">time</a></code> element, that element could have been used
   instead of <code><a href="#the-data-element">data</a></code>. This could be advantageous as it
   would allow data analysis tools to detect the timestamps
   unambiguously, without coordination with the page author.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt; &lt;data value="1319898155"&gt;14:22&lt;/data&gt; &lt;b&gt;egof&lt;/b&gt; I'm not that nerdy, I've only seen 30% of the star trek episodes
&lt;p&gt; &lt;data value="1319898192"&gt;14:23&lt;/data&gt; &lt;b&gt;kaj&lt;/b&gt; if you know what percentage of the star trek episodes you have seen, you are inarguably nerdy
&lt;p&gt; &lt;data value="1319898200"&gt;14:23&lt;/data&gt; &lt;b&gt;egof&lt;/b&gt; it's unarguably
&lt;p&gt; &lt;data value="1319898228"&gt;14:23&lt;/data&gt; &lt;i&gt;* kaj blinks&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;data value="1319898260"&gt;14:24&lt;/data&gt; &lt;b&gt;kaj&lt;/b&gt; you are not helping your case</pre>

  <div class="example">

   <p>HTML does not have a good way to mark up graphs, so descriptions
   of interactive conversations from games are more difficult to mark
   up. This example shows one possible convention using
   <code><a href="#the-dl-element">dl</a></code> elements to list the possible responses at each
   point in the conversation. Another option to consider is describing
   the conversation in the form of a DOT file, and outputting the
   result as an SVG image to place in the document. <a href="#refsDOT">[DOT]</a></p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt; Next, you meet a fisherman. You can say one of several greetings:
&lt;dl&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt; "Hello there!"
 &lt;dd&gt;
  &lt;p&gt; He responds with "Hello, how may I help you?"; you can respond with:
  &lt;dl&gt;
   &lt;dt&gt; "I would like to buy a fish."
   &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; He sells you a fish and the conversation finishes.
   &lt;dt&gt; "Can I borrow your boat?"
   &lt;dd&gt;
    &lt;p&gt; He is surprised and asks "What are you offering in return?".
    &lt;dl&gt;
     &lt;dt&gt; "Five gold." (if you have enough)
     &lt;dt&gt; "Ten gold." (if you have enough)
     &lt;dt&gt; "Fifteen gold." (if you have enough)
     &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; He lends you his boat. The conversation ends.
     &lt;dt&gt; "A fish." (if you have one)
     &lt;dt&gt; "A newspaper." (if you have one)
     &lt;dt&gt; "A pebble." (if you have one)
     &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; "No thanks", he replies. Your conversation options        
     at this point are the same as they were after asking to borrow
     his boat, minus any options you've suggested before.
    &lt;/dl&gt;
   &lt;/dd&gt;
  &lt;/dl&gt;
 &lt;/dd&gt;
 &lt;dt&gt; "Vote for me in the next election!"
 &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; He turns away. The conversation finishes.
 &lt;dt&gt; "Sir, are you aware that your fish are running away?"
 &lt;dd&gt;
  &lt;p&gt; He looks at you skeptically and says "Fish cannot run, sir".
  &lt;dl&gt;
   &lt;dt&gt; "You got me!"
   &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; The fisherman sighs and the conversation ends.
   &lt;dt&gt; "Only kidding."
   &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; "Good one!" he retorts. Your conversation options at this
   point are the same as those following "Hello there!" above.
   &lt;dt&gt; "Oh, then what are they doing?"
   &lt;dd&gt; &lt;p&gt; He looks at his fish, giving you an opportunity to steal
   his boat, which you do. The conversation ends.
  &lt;/dl&gt;
 &lt;/dd&gt;
&lt;/dl&gt;</pre>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In some games, conversations are simpler: each character merely has a fixed set of lines that
   they say. In this example, a game FAQ/walkthrough lists some of the known possible responses for
   each character:</p>

   <pre>&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;h1&gt;Dialogue&lt;/h1&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;&lt;small&gt;Some characters repeat their lines in order each time you interact
 with them, others randomly pick from amongst their lines. Those who respond in
 order have numbered entries in the lists below.&lt;/small&gt;
 &lt;h2&gt;The Shopkeeper&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;How may I help you?
  &lt;li&gt;Fresh apples!
  &lt;li&gt;A loaf of bread for madam?
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 &lt;h2&gt;The pilot&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Before the accident:
 &lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;I'm about to fly out, sorry!
  &lt;/li&gt;Sorry, I'm just waiting for flight clearance and then I'll be off!
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;After the accident:
 &lt;ol&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;I'm about to fly out, sorry!
  &lt;li&gt;Ok, I'm not leaving right now, my plane is being cleaned.
  &lt;li&gt;Ok, it's not being cleaned, it needs a minor repair first.
  &lt;li&gt;Ok, ok, stop bothering me! Truth is, I had a crash.
 &lt;/ol&gt;
 &lt;h2&gt;Clan Leader&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;During the first clan meeting:
 &lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Hey, have you seen my daughter? I bet she's up to something nefarious again...
  &lt;li&gt;Nice weather we're having today, eh?
  &lt;li&gt;The name is Bailey, Jeff Bailey. How can I help you today?
  &lt;li&gt;A glass of water? Fresh from the well!
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;After the earthquake:
 &lt;ol&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Everyone is safe in the shelter, we just have to put out the fire!
  &lt;li&gt;I'll go and tell the fire brigade, you keep hosing it down!

  <h4 id="footnotes"><span class="secno">4.13.5 </span>Footnotes</h4>

  <p>HTML does not have a dedicated mechanism for marking up
  footnotes. Here are the suggested alternatives.</p>

<!--FORK--><!--TITLE-->

  <hr>

  <p>For
<!--FORK--><!--TITLE-->
  annotations, the <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element should be used, pointing to
  an element later in the document. The convention is that the
  contents of the link be a number in square brackets.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, a footnote in the dialogue links to a paragraph
   below the dialogue. The paragraph then reciprocally links back to the
   dialogue, allowing the user to return to the location of the
   footnote.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt; Announcer: Number 16: The &lt;i&gt;hand&lt;/i&gt;.
&lt;p&gt; Interviewer: Good evening. I have with me in the studio tonight
Mr Norman St John Polevaulter, who for the past few years has been
contradicting people. Mr Polevaulter, why &lt;em&gt;do&lt;/em&gt; you
contradict people?
&lt;p&gt; Norman: I don't. &lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href="#fn1" id="r1"&gt;[1]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Interviewer: You told me you did!
<em>...</em>
&lt;section&gt;
 &lt;p id="fn1"&gt;&lt;a href="#r1"&gt;[1]&lt;/a&gt; This is, naturally, a lie,
 but paradoxically if it were true he could not say so without
 contradicting the interviewer and thus making it false.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <hr>

  <p>For side notes, longer annotations that apply to entire sections
  of the text rather than just specific words or sentences, the
  <code><a href="#the-aside-element">aside</a></code> element should be used.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, a sidebar is given after a dialogue, giving it
   some context.</p>

   <pre>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="speaker"&gt;Customer&lt;/span&gt;: I will not buy this record, it is scratched.
&lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="speaker"&gt;Shopkeeper&lt;/span&gt;: I'm sorry?
&lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="speaker"&gt;Customer&lt;/span&gt;: I will not buy this record, it is scratched.
&lt;p&gt; &lt;span class="speaker"&gt;Shopkeeper&lt;/span&gt;: No no no, this's'a tobacconist's.

 &lt;p&gt;In 1970, the British Empire lay in ruins, and foreign
 nationalists frequented the streets — many of them Hungarians
 (not the streets — the foreign nationals). Sadly, Alexander
 Yalt has been publishing incompetently-written phrase books.
&lt;/aside&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <hr>

  <p>For figures or tables, footnotes can be included in the relevant
  <code><a href="#the-figcaption-element">figcaption</a></code> or <code><a href="#the-caption-element">caption</a></code> element, or in
  surrounding prose.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, a <!-- round --> table has cells with footnotes
   that are given in prose. A <code><a href="#the-figure-element">figure</a></code> element is used to
   give a single legend to the combination of the table and its
   footnotes.</p>

   <pre>&lt;figure&gt;
 &lt;figcaption&gt;Table 1. Alternative activities for knights.&lt;/figcaption&gt;
 &lt;table&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;th&gt; Activity
   &lt;th&gt; Location
   &lt;th&gt; Cost
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; Dance
   &lt;td&gt; Wherever possible
   &lt;td&gt; £0&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href="#fn1"&gt;1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; Routines, chorus scenes&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href="#fn2"&gt;2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; Undisclosed
   &lt;td&gt; Undisclosed
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; Dining&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href="#fn3"&gt;3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
   &lt;td&gt; Camelot
   &lt;td&gt; Cost of ham, jam, and spam&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href="#fn4"&gt;4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 &lt;/table&gt;
 &lt;p id="fn1"&gt;1. Assumed.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p id="fn2"&gt;2. Footwork impeccable.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p id="fn3"&gt;3. Quality described as "well".&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p id="fn4"&gt;4. A lot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;</pre>

  </div>



  <h3 id="windows"><span class="secno">5.1 </span>Browsing contexts</h3>

  <p>A <dfn id="browsing-context">browsing context</dfn> is an environment in which <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects are
  presented to the user.</p>

  <p class="note">A tab or window in a Web browser typically contains a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>, as does an <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code><span class="impl"> or <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code>s in a
  <code><a href="#frameset">frameset</a></code></span>.</p>

  <p>Each <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> has a corresponding <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> has a <a href="#session-history">session history</a>, which lists the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects that that <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> has presented, is
  presenting, or will present. At any time, one <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> in each <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> is designated the <dfn id="active-document">active document</dfn>. A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> is that <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> whose <a href="#session-history">session
  history</a> contains the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, if any. (A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> created using
  an API such as <code title="dom-DOMImplementation-createDocument"><a href="#dom-domimplementation-createdocument">createDocument()</a></code> has no
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>.)</p>

  <p>Each <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> in a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> is
  <dfn id="concept-document-window" title="concept-document-window">associated</dfn> with a <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object. A <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>'s <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object forwards everything to the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>'s <a href="#active-document">active document</a>'s <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object.</p>

  <p class="note">In general, there is a 1-to-1 mapping from the <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object to the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object. There are two exceptions. First, a <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> can be reused
  for the presentation of a second <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> in the same <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>,
  such that the mapping is then 1-to-2. This occurs when a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> is <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigated</a> from the initial <code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code> <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>
  to another, with <a href="#replacement-enabled">replacement enabled</a>. Second, a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> can end up
  being reused for several <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> objects when the <code title="dom-document-open"><a href="#dom-document-open">document.open()</a></code> method is used, such that the mapping is then
  many-to-1.</p>

  <p class="note">A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> does not necessarily have a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>
  associated with it. In particular, data mining tools are likely to never instantiate browsing
  contexts.</p>

  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> that was responsible for its creation. If a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> has a <a href="#parent-browsing-context">parent browsing context</a>, then that is its <a href="#creator-browsing-context">creator browsing
  context</a>. Otherwise, if the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> has an <a href="#opener-browsing-context">opener browsing
  context</a>, then <em>that</em> is its <a href="#creator-browsing-context">creator browsing context</a>. Otherwise, the

  <p>Certain elements (for example, <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> elements) can instantiate further <a href="#browsing-context" title="browsing context">browsing contexts</a>. These are called <dfn id="nested-browsing-context" title="nested browsing

  Otherwise, the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> <var title="">C</var> has no <a href="#parent-browsing-context">parent

  <p>A browsing context <var title="">A</var> is said to be an <dfn id="ancestor-browsing-context" title="ancestor browsing

  <p>A browsing context that is not a <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> has no <a href="#parent-browsing-context">parent

  contexts for which it is an <a href="#ancestor-browsing-context">ancestor browsing context</a>.</p>

  <p>The transitive closure of <a href="#parent-browsing-context" title="parent browsing context">parent browsing contexts</a>
  for a <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> gives the list of <a href="#ancestor-browsing-context" title="ancestor browsing

  <p>A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is said to be <dfn id="fully-active">fully active</dfn> when it is the <a href="#active-document">active

  <p>Because they are nested through an element, <a href="#child-browsing-context" title="child browsing context">child browsing

  not themselves <a href="#fully-active">fully active</a>.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> can have a <a href="#seamless-browsing-context-flag">seamless browsing context flag</a>
  set, if it is embedded through an <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-iframe-seamless"><a href="#attr-iframe-seamless">seamless</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> can be put into a <dfn id="delaying-load-events-mode">delaying <code title="event-load">load</code> events mode</dfn>. This is used when it is <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigated</a>, to <a href="#delay-the-load-event">delay the load event</a> of the <a href="#browsing-context-container">browsing

  created.</p>

<!--(There's no current way for this to happen, since removing an iframe from a document discards its browsing context)
  <p class="note">A <span>nested browsing context</span> can in some cases be taken out of its
  <span>parent browsing context</span> (e.g. if an <code>iframe</code> element is removed from its

  <p><dfn id="the-rules-for-choosing-a-browsing-context-given-a-browsing-context-name">The rules for choosing a browsing context given a browsing context name</dfn> are as

  <ol>

   <li>

    <p>If the given browsing context name is the empty string or <code title="">_self</code>, then
    the chosen browsing context must be the current one.</p>

    <p>If the given browsing context name is <code title="">_self</code>, then this is an

   </li>

   <li><p>If the given browsing context name is <code title="">_parent</code>, then the chosen
   browsing context must be the <a href="#parent-browsing-context"><em>parent</em> browsing context</a> of the current one,
   unless there isn't one, in which case the chosen browsing context must be the current browsing
   context.</p></li>

   <li><p>If the given browsing context name is <code title="">_top</code>, then the chosen browsing
   context must be the <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a> of the current one, if there is one,
   or else the current browsing context.</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>If the given browsing context name is not <code title="">_blank</code> and there exists a
    browsing context whose <a href="#browsing-context-name" title="browsing context name">name</a> is the same as the given
    browsing context name, and the current browsing context is <a href="#familiar-with">familiar with</a> that
    browsing context, and the user agent determines that the two browsing contexts are related
    enough that it is ok if they reach each other, then that browsing context must be the chosen
    one. If there are multiple matching browsing contexts, the user agent should select one in some
    arbitrary consistent manner, such as the most recently opened, most recently focused, or more
    closely related.</p>

    <p>If the browsing context is chosen by this step to be the current browsing context, then this
    is also an <a href="#explicit-self-navigation-override">explicit self-navigation override</a>.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>Otherwise, a new browsing context is being requested, and what happens depends on the user
    agent's configuration and abilities — it is determined by the rules given for the first
    applicable option from the following list:</p>

    <dl class="switch">

     <dt id="popup-blocker">If the algorithm is not <a href="#allowed-to-show-a-popup">allowed to show a popup</a> and the

     <dd>

      <p>There is no chosen browsing context. The user agent may inform the user that a popup has
      been blocked.</p>

     context flag</a> set.</dt>

     <dd>

      <p>Typically, there is no chosen browsing context.</p>

      <p>The user agent may offer to create a new <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a> or reuse
      an existing <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a>. If the user picks one of those options,
      then the designated browsing context must be the chosen one (the browsing context's name isn't
      set to the given browsing context name). The default behaviour (if the user agent doesn't
      offer the option to the user, or if the user declines to allow a browsing context to be used)
      must be that there must not be a chosen browsing context.</p>

      <p class="warning">If this case occurs, it means that an author has explicitly sandboxed the
      document that is trying to open a link.</p>

  <!-- This whole section should be rewritten to use algorithmic style -->

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-open" title="dom-open"><code>open()</code></dfn> method on <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> objects
  provides a mechanism for <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigating</a> an existing <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> or opening and navigating an <a href="#auxiliary-browsing-context">auxiliary browsing context</a>.</p>

  <p>The method has four arguments, though they are all optional.</p>

  <p>The first argument, <var title="">url</var>, must be a <a href="#valid-non-empty-url">valid non-empty URL</a> for a
  page to load in the browsing context. If the first argument is the empty string, then the <var title="">url</var> argument must be interpreted as "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>". Otherwise, the
  argument must be <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">resolved</a> to an <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> (or
  an error), relative to the <a href="#entry-script">entry script</a>'s <a href="#script's-base-url" title="script's base URL">base
  URL</a>, when the method is invoked.</p>

  <p>The second argument, <var title="">target</var>, specifies the <a href="#browsing-context-name" title="browsing context
  name">name</a> of the browsing context that is to be navigated. It must be a <a href="#valid-browsing-context-name-or-keyword">valid
  browsing context name or keyword</a>.</p>

  <p>The third argument, <var title="">features</var>, has no defined effect and is mentioned for
  historical reasons only. User agents may interpret this argument as instructions to set the size
  and position of the browsing context, but are encouraged to instead ignore the argument
  entirely.</p>

  <p>The fourth argument, <var title="">replace</var>, specifies whether or not the new page will
  <a href="#replacement-enabled" title="replacement enabled">replace</a> the page currently loaded in the browsing
  context, when <var title="">target</var> identifies an existing browsing context (as opposed to
  leaving the current page in the browsing context's <a href="#session-history">session history</a>).</p>

  <p>When the method is invoked, the user agent must first select a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> to
  navigate by applying <a href="#the-rules-for-choosing-a-browsing-context-given-a-browsing-context-name">the rules for choosing a browsing context given a browsing context
  name</a> using the <var title="">target</var> argument as the name and the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> of the script as the context in which the algorithm is executed, unless the user
  has indicated a preference, in which case the browsing context to navigate may instead be the one
  indicated by the user.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, suppose there is a user agent that supports control-clicking a
  link to open it in a new tab. If a user clicks in that user agent on an element whose <code title="handler-onclick"><a href="#handler-onclick">onclick</a></code> handler uses the <code title="dom-open"><a href="#dom-open">window.open()</a></code> API to open a page in an iframe, but, while doing so, holds
  the control key down, the user agent could override the selection of the target browsing context
  to instead target a new tab.</p>

  <p>If applying <a href="#the-rules-for-choosing-a-browsing-context-given-a-browsing-context-name">the rules for choosing a browsing context given a browsing context
  name</a> using the <var title="">target</var> argument would result in there not being a chosen
  browsing context, then throw an <code><a href="#invalidaccesserror">InvalidAccessError</a></code> exception and abort these
  steps.</p>

  <p>Otherwise, if <var title="">url</var> is not "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>", the user agent must
  <a href="#navigate">navigate</a><!--DONAV window.open()--> the selected <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> to the
  <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> obtained from <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">resolving</a> <var title="">url</var> earlier. If the <var title="">replace</var> is true or if the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> was just created as part of <a href="#the-rules-for-choosing-a-browsing-context-given-a-browsing-context-name">the rules for choosing a browsing context given a
  browsing context name</a>, then <a href="#replacement-enabled" title="replacement enabled">replacement must be
  enabled</a>. The navigation must be done with the <a href="#script's-browsing-context" title="script's browsing
  context">browsing context</a> of the <a href="#incumbent-script">incumbent script</a> as the <a href="#source-browsing-context">source browsing
  context</a>. If the <a href="#resolve-a-url">resolve a URL</a> algorithm failed, then the user agent may either
  instead <a href="#navigate">navigate</a> to an inline error page, using the same replacement behavior and
  source browsing context behavior as described earlier in this paragraph; or treat the <var title="">url</var> as "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>", acting as described in the next paragraph.</p>

  <p>If <var title="">url</var> <em>is</em> "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>", and the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> was just created as part of <a href="#the-rules-for-choosing-a-browsing-context-given-a-browsing-context-name">the rules for choosing a browsing context given a
  browsing context name</a>, then the user agent must instead <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to
  <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-load">load</code> at the selected
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>'s <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object, but with its <code title="dom-event-target"><a href="#dom-event-target">target</a></code> set to the selected <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>'s <a href="#concept-document-window" title="concept-document-window"><code>Window</code> object's <code>Document</code></a> object
  (and the <code title="dom-event-currentTarget">currentTarget</code> set to the <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code>
  object).</p>

  <p>The method must return the <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object of the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>

  <h4 id="the-windowproxy-object"><span class="secno">5.2.8 </span>The <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object</h4>


  <p>As mentioned earlier, each <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> has a
  <dfn id="windowproxy"><code>WindowProxy</code></dfn> object. This object is unusual in that all operations that
  would be performed on it must be performed on the <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object of the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>'s <a href="#active-document">active document</a> instead. It is thus indistinguishable from that
  <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object in every way until the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> is navigated.</p>

  <p>There is no <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> interface object.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object allows scripts to act as if each
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> had a single <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object, while still keeping
  separate <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> objects for each <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, the variable <var title="">x</var> is set to the
   <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object returned by the <code title="dom-window"><a href="#dom-window">window</a></code> accessor
   on the global object. All of the expressions following the assignment return true, because in
   every respect, the <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object acts like the underlying <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code>
   object.</p>

  <h3 id="origin"><span class="secno">5.3 </span>Origin</h3>
  <!-- Hallowed are the Ori -->

  <p>Origins are the fundamental currency of the Web's security model. Two actors in the Web
  platform that share an origin are assumed to trust each other and to have the same authority.
  Actors with differing origins are considered potentially hostile versus each other, and are
  isolated from each other to varying degrees.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, if Example Bank's Web site, hosted at <code title="">bank.example.com</code>, tries to examine the DOM of Example Charity's Web site, hosted
  at <code title="">charity.example.org</code>, a <code><a href="#securityerror">SecurityError</a></code> exception will be
  raised.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>The <dfn id="origin-0">origin</dfn> of a resource and the <dfn id="effective-script-origin">effective script origin</dfn> of a resource
  are both either opaque identifiers or tuples consisting of a scheme component, a host component, a
  port component, and optionally extra data.</p>

  <p class="note">The extra data could include the certificate of the
  site when using encrypted connections, to ensure that if the site's
  secure certificate changes, the origin is considered to change as
  well.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="the-session-history-of-browsing-contexts"><span class="secno">5.5.1 </span>The session history of browsing contexts</h4>

  <p>The sequence of <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s in a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a> is its <dfn id="session-history">session history</dfn>.</p>

  <p><code><a href="#history-1">History</a></code> objects provide a representation of the
  pages in the session history of <a href="#browsing-context" title="browsing
  context">browsing contexts</a>. Each <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>, including <a href="#nested-browsing-context" title="nested browsing
  context">nested browsing contexts</a>, has a distinct session
  history.</p>

  <p>Each <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object in a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>'s <a href="#session-history">session history</a> is associated with a
  unique instance of the <code><a href="#history-1">History</a></code> object, although they
  all must model the same underlying <a href="#session-history">session history</a>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>The <dfn id="dom-history" title="dom-history"><code>history</code></dfn> attribute
  of the <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> interface must return the object
  implementing the <code><a href="#history-1">History</a></code> interface for that
  <a href="#concept-document-window" title="concept-document-window"><code>Window</code> object's newest <code>Document</code></a>.</p>

  </div>

  <p><code><a href="#history-1">History</a></code> objects represent their <a href="#browsing-context">browsing
  context</a>'s session history as a flat list of <a href="#session-history-entry" title="session history entry">session history entries</a>. Each
  <dfn id="session-history-entry">session history entry</dfn> consists of a <a href="#url">URL</a> and
  optionally a <a href="#state-object">state object</a><span class="impl">, and may
  in addition have a title, a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object, form data,
  a scroll position, and other information associated with
  it</span>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p class="note">This does not imply that the user interface need be
  linear. See the <a href="#history-notes">notes below</a>.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">Titles associated with <a href="#session-history-entry" title="session history
  entry">session history entries</a> need not have any relation
  with the current <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code> of the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>. The title of a <a href="#session-history-entry">session history
  entry</a> is intended to explain the state of the document at
  that point, so that the user can navigate the document's
  history.</p>

  <p>URLs without associated <a href="#state-object" title="state object">state
  objects</a> are added to the session history as the user (or
  script) navigates from page to page.</p>

  <p>A <dfn id="state-object">state object</dfn> is an object representing a user
  interface state.</p>

  <p>Pages can <a href="#dom-history-pushstate" title="dom-history-pushState">add</a> <a href="#state-object" title="state object">state
  objects</a> to the session history. These are then <a href="#event-popstate" title="event-popstate">returned to the
  script</a> when the user (or script) goes back in the history, thus enabling authors to use the
  "navigation" metaphor even in one-page applications.</p>

  <div class="note">

   <p><a href="#state-object" title="state object">State objects</a> are intended to
   be used for two main purposes: first, storing a preparsed
   description of the state in the <a href="#url">URL</a> so that in the
   simple case an author doesn't have to do the parsing (though one
   would still need the parsing for handling <a href="#url" title="URL">URLs</a> passed around by users, so it's only a minor
   optimization), and second, so that the author can store state that
   one wouldn't store in the URL because it only applies to the current
   <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> instance and it would have to be reconstructed
   if a new <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> were opened.</p>

   <p>An example of the latter would be something like keeping track of
   the precise coordinate from which a pop-up <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> was made
   to animate, so that if the user goes back, it can be made to animate
   to the same location. Or alternatively, it could be used to keep a
   pointer into a cache of data that would be fetched from the server
   based on the information in the <a href="#url">URL</a>, so that when going
   back and forward, the information doesn't have to be fetched
   again.</p>

  </div>

  <hr>

  <p>At any point, one of the entries in the session history is the
  <dfn id="current-entry">current entry</dfn>. This is the entry representing the
  <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>.
  Which entry is the <a href="#current-entry">current entry</a> is changed by the
  algorithms defined in this specification, e.g. during <a href="#traverse-the-history" title="traverse the history">session history traversal</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">The <a href="#current-entry">current entry</a> is usually an entry
  for the <a href="#the-document's-address" title="the document's address">address</a> of the
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>. However, it can also be one of the entries
  for <a href="#state-object" title="state object">state objects</a> added to the
  history by that document.</p>

  <p><dfn id="an-entry-with-persisted-user-state">An entry with persisted user state</dfn> is one that also
  has user-agent defined state. This specification does not specify
  what kind of state can be stored.</p>
  
  <p class="example">For example, some user agents might want to
  persist the scroll position, or the values of form controls.</p>

  <p class="note">User agents that persist the value of form controls
  are encouraged to also persist their directionality (the value of
  the element's <code title="attr-dir"><a href="#the-dir-attribute">dir</a></code> attribute). This
  prevents values from being displayed incorrectly after a history
  traversal when the user had originally entered the values with an
  explicit, non-default directionality.</p>

  <p>Entries that consist of <a href="#state-object" title="state object">state
  objects</a> share the same <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> as the entry for
  the page that was active when they were added.</p>

  <p>Contiguous entries that differ just by fragment identifier also
  share the same <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p class="note">All entries that share the same
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> (and that are therefore merely different
  states of one particular document) are contiguous by definition.</p>

  <p>Each <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> in a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> can
  also have a <dfn id="latest-entry">latest entry</dfn>. This is the entry or that
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> that was most the recently traversed to. When
  a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is created, it initially has no <a href="#latest-entry">latest
  entry</a>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>User agents may <a href="#discard-a-document" title="discard a Document">discard</a>
  the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects of entries other than the
  <a href="#current-entry">current entry</a> that are not referenced from any script,
  reloading the pages afresh when the user or script navigates back to
  such pages. This specification does not specify when user agents
  should discard <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects and when they should
  cache them.</p>

  <p>Entries that have had their <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> objects
  discarded must, for the purposes of the algorithms given below, act
  as if they had not. When the user or script navigates back or
  forwards to a page which has no in-memory DOM objects, any other
  entries that shared the same <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object with it
  must share the new object as well.</p>

  <p class="note">The <var title="">title</var> is purely advisory. User agents might use the title
  in the user interface.</p>

  <p>User agents may limit the number of state objects added to the session history per page. If a
  page hits the UA-defined limit, user agents must remove the entry immediately after the first
  entry for that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object in the session history after having added the new
  entry. (Thus the state history acts as a FIFO buffer for eviction, but as a LIFO buffer for
  navigation.)</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider a game where the user can navigate along a line, such that the user is always at some
   coordinate, and such that the user can bookmark the page corresponding to a particular
   coordinate, to return to it later.</p>

   <p>A static page implementing the x=5 position in such a game could look like the following:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;!-- this is http://example.com/line?x=5 --&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Line Game - 5&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are at coordinate 5 on the line.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 &lt;a href="?x=6"&gt;Advance to 6&lt;/a&gt; or
 &lt;a href="?x=4"&gt;retreat to 4&lt;/a&gt;?
&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>The problem with such a system is that each time the user clicks, the whole page has to be
   reloaded. Here instead is another way of doing it, using script:</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;!-- this starts off as http://example.com/line?x=5 --&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Line Game - 5&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are at coordinate &lt;span id="coord"&gt;5&lt;/span&gt; on the line.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 &lt;a href="?x=6" onclick="go(1); return false;"&gt;Advance to 6&lt;/a&gt; or
 &lt;a href="?x=4" onclick="go(-1); return false;"&gt;retreat to 4&lt;/a&gt;?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
 var currentPage = 5; // prefilled by server
 function go(d) {
   setupPage(currentPage + d);
   history.pushState(currentPage, document.title, '?x=' + currentPage);
 }
 onpopstate = function(event) {
   setupPage(event.state);
 }
 function setupPage(page) {
   currentPage = page;
   document.title = 'Line Game - ' + currentPage;
   document.getElementById('coord').textContent = currentPage;
   document.links[0].href = '?x=' + (currentPage+1);
   document.links[0].textContent = 'Advance to ' + (currentPage+1);
   document.links[1].href = '?x=' + (currentPage-1);
   document.links[1].textContent = 'retreat to ' + (currentPage-1);
 }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

   <p>In systems without script, this still works like the previous example. However, users that
   <em>do</em> have script support can now navigate much faster, since there is no network access
   for the same experience. Furthermore, contrary to the experience the user would have with just a
   naïve script-based approach, bookmarking and navigating the session history still work.</p>

   <p>In the example above, the <var title="">data</var> argument to the <code title="dom-history-pushState"><a href="#dom-history-pushstate">pushState()</a></code> method is the same information as would be sent
   to the server, but in a more convenient form, so that the script doesn't have to parse the URL
   each time the user navigates.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Applications might not use the same title for a <a href="#session-history-entry">session history entry</a> as the
   value of the document's <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code> element at that time. For example, here is a simple
   page that shows a block in the <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code> element. Clearly, when navigating backwards to
   a previous state the user does not go back in time, and therefore it would be inappropriate to
   put the time in the session history title.</p>

   <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
&lt;TITLE&gt;Line&lt;/TITLE&gt;
&lt;SCRIPT&gt;
 setInterval(function () { document.title = 'Line - ' + new Date(); }, 1000);
 var i = 1;
 function inc() {
   set(i+1);
   history.pushState(i, 'Line - ' + i);
 }
 function set(newI) {
   i = newI;
   document.forms.F.I.value = newI;
 }
&lt;/SCRIPT&gt;
&lt;BODY ONPOPSTATE="set(event.state)"&gt;
&lt;FORM NAME=F&gt;
State: &lt;OUTPUT NAME=I&gt;1&lt;/OUTPUT&gt; &lt;INPUT VALUE="Increment" TYPE=BUTTON ONCLICK="inc()"&gt;

  <p>The <code><a href="#history-1">History</a></code> interface is not meant to place
  restrictions on how implementations represent the session history to
  the user.</p>

  <p>For example, session history could be implemented in a tree-like
  manner, with each page having multiple "forward" pages. This
  specification doesn't define how the linear list of pages in the
  <code title="dom-history"><a href="#dom-history">history</a></code> object are derived from the
  actual session history as seen from the user's perspective.</p>

  <p>Similarly, a page containing two <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>s has a <code title="dom-history"><a href="#dom-history">history</a></code> object distinct from the
  <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>s' <code title="dom-history"><a href="#dom-history">history</a></code>
  objects, despite the fact that typical Web browsers present the user
  with just one "Back" button, with a session history that interleaves
  the navigation of the two inner frames and the outer page.</p>

<!--ADD-TOPIC:Security-->
  <p><strong>Security</strong>: It is suggested that to avoid letting
  a page "hijack" the history navigation facilities of a UA by abusing
  <code title="dom-history-pushState"><a href="#dom-history-pushstate">pushState()</a></code>, the UA
  provide the user with a way to jump back to the previous page
  (rather than just going back to the previous state). For example,
  the back button could have a drop down showing just the pages in the
  session history, and not showing any of the states. Similarly, an
  aural browser could have two "back" commands, one that goes back to
  the previous state, and one that jumps straight back to the previous
  page.</p>

  <p>In addition, a user agent could ignore calls to <code title="dom-history-pushState"><a href="#dom-history-pushstate">pushState()</a></code> that are invoked on
  a timer, or from event listeners that are not triggered in response
  to a clear user action, or that are invoked in rapid succession.</p>

  <p>Certain actions cause the <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> to <i><a href="#navigate">navigate</a></i> to a new resource.
  Navigation always involves <dfn id="source-browsing-context">source browsing context</dfn>, which is the browsing context which
  was responsible for starting the navigation.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, <a href="#following-hyperlinks-0" title="following hyperlinks">following a hyperlink</a>,
  <a href="#concept-form-submit" title="concept-form-submit">form submission</a>, and the <code title="dom-open"><a href="#dom-open">window.open()</a></code> and <code title="dom-location-assign"><a href="#dom-location-assign">location.assign()</a></code> methods can all cause a browsing context to

    <p>If these steps are aborted here, the user agent may instead offer to open the new resource in a
    new <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a> or in the <a href="#top-level-browsing-context">top-level browsing context</a> of

    found to redirect to "<code title="">https://example.com/</code>", the URL of the new resource
    will be "<code title="">https://example.com/#!sample</code>".</p>

    <p>Otherwise, if fetching the resource results in a redirect but the <a href="#url">URL</a> of the
    target of the redirect does not have the <a href="#same-origin">same origin</a> as the original resource and
    the resource is being obtained using a method that is neither the POST method nor a safe method

    <p>If <var title="">candidate</var> is not marked as <a href="#concept-appcache-foreign" title="concept-appcache-foreign">foreign</a>, then the user agent must discard the failed

    The user agent may indicate to the user that the original page load failed, and that the page
    used was a previously cached resource.</p>

    <p class="note">This does not affect the <i>address of the resource from which Request-URIs are

    <a href="#the-document's-address">The document's address</a>, if appropriate, will still be the originally requested URL,
    not the fallback URL, but the user agent may indicate to the user that the original page load

    actually is.</p>

    <p class="note">This does not affect the <i>address of the resource from which Request-URIs are

    perform that processing and abort these steps.</p>

    <div class="note">
     <p>Such processing might be triggered by, amongst other things, the following:</p>

    Similarly, user agents should allow the user to authenticate (in a non-modal fashion) against

  <p class="note">The <a href="#the-input-byte-stream">input byte stream</a> converts bytes into characters for use in the

  <h4 id="read-xml"><span class="secno">5.6.3 </span><dfn title="navigate-xml">Page load processing model for XML files</dfn></h4>

  <p>When faced with displaying an XML file inline, user agents must first <a href="#create-a-document-object">create a
  <code>Document</code> object</a>, following the requirements of the XML and Namespaces in XML
  recommendations, RFC 3023, DOM, and other relevant specifications. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a> <a href="#refsXMLNS">[XMLNS]</a> <a href="#refsRFC3023">[RFC3023]</a> <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a></p>

  <p>The actual HTTP headers and other metadata, not the headers as mutated or implied by the
  algorithms given in this specification, are the ones that must be used when determining the
  character encoding according to the rules given in the above specifications. Once the character
  encoding is established, the <a href="#document's-character-encoding">document's character encoding</a> must be set to that
  character encoding.</p>

  <p>If the root element, as parsed according to the XML specifications cited above, is found to be
  an <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code> element with an attribute <code title="attr-html-manifest"><a href="#attr-html-manifest">manifest</a></code>
  whose value is not the empty string, then, as soon as the element is <a href="#insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an
  element into a document">inserted into the document</a>, the user agent must <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">resolve</a> the value of that attribute relative to that element, and if
  that is successful, must apply the <a href="#concept-url-serializer" title="concept-url-serializer">URL serializer</a> algorithm to the resulting
  <a href="#parsed-url">parsed URL</a> with the <i>exclude fragment flag</i> set to obtain <var title="">manifest
  URL</var>, and then run the <a href="#concept-appcache-init" title="concept-appcache-init">application cache selection
  algorithm</a> with <var title="">manifest URL</var> as the manifest URL, passing in the
  newly-created <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>. Otherwise, if the attribute is absent, its value is the empty
  string, or resolving its value fails, then as soon as the root element is <a href="#insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an
  element into a document">inserted into the document</a>, the user agent must run the <a href="#concept-appcache-init" title="concept-appcache-init">application cache selection algorithm</a> with no manifest, and
  passing in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p class="note">Because the processing of the <code title="attr-html-manifest"><a href="#attr-html-manifest">manifest</a></code>
  attribute happens only once the root element is parsed, any URLs referenced by processing
  instructions before the root element (such as <code title="">&lt;?xml-stylesheet?&gt;</code> and
  <code title="">&lt;?xbl?&gt;</code> PIs) will be fetched from the network and cannot be
  cached.</p><!-- v2: fix this somehow -->

  <p>User agents may examine the namespace of the root <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code> node of this
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object to perform namespace-based dispatch to alternative processing tools,
  e.g. determining that the content is actually a syndication feed and passing it to a feed handler.
  If such processing is to take place, abort the steps in this section, and jump to <a href="#navigate-non-Document">the next step</a> (labeled <i>non-document content</i>) in the
  <a href="#navigate">navigate</a> steps above.</p>

  <p>Otherwise, then, with the newly created <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, the user agent must <a href="#update-the-session-history-with-the-new-page">update
  the session history with the new page</a>. User agents may do this before the complete document
  has been parsed (thus achieving <i>incremental rendering</i>), and must do this before any scripts
  are to be executed.</p>

  <p>Error messages from the parse process (e.g. XML namespace well-formedness errors) may be
  reported inline by mutating the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p class="note">
    Many existing user agents support the '<code>text/xsl</code>' (or
    '<code>application/xslt+xml</code>') style sheet type, with XSLT 
    <a href="#refsXSLT10">[XSLT10]</a> as the relevant supported styling 
    language. When the browsing context has a style sheet of that type, 
    such agents transform the current XML document using the XSLT stylesheet 
    retrieved from the style sheet location (typically supplied via an xml-stylesheet
    processing instruction) and rendering (or otherwise processing) the
    document that results from that transformation. The precise details
    of this process are not defined yet.

  stream.</p>

  <p>The rules for how to convert the bytes of the plain text document into actual characters, and

  <p>The <a href="#document's-character-encoding">document's character encoding</a> must be set to the character encoding used to

  <p>Upon creation of the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object, the user agent must run the <a href="#concept-appcache-init" title="concept-appcache-init">application cache selection algorithm</a> with no manifest, and

  <!-- next two paragraphs are nearly identical to the navigate-html section and similar to the

  <p>When no more bytes are available, the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> for the parser

  <p>After creating the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object, but potentially before the page has finished
  parsing, the user agent must <a href="#update-the-session-history-with-the-new-page">update the session history with the new page</a>.</p>

  <p>User agents may add content to the <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element of the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, e.g.
  linking to a style sheet or an XBL binding, providing script, giving the document a
  <code><a href="#the-title-element">title</a></code>, etc.</p>

  <p class="note">In particular, if the user agent supports the <code title="">Format=Flowed</code>
  feature of RFC 3676 then the user agent would need to apply extra styling to cause the text to
  wrap correctly and to handle the quoting feature. This could be performed using, e.g., an XBL

  <p>When a resource with the type <code><a href="#multipart/x-mixed-replace">multipart/x-mixed-replace</a></code> is to be loaded in a

  <p>For each body part obtained from the resource, the user agent must run a new instance of the

  <!-- v2 ideas for appcache:

     * A way to limit what gets download when the user agent is
       updating the application cache and it turns out the server has
       changed EVERY page because every page has a dynamic "site last
       modified" date on it.

       http://groups.google.com/group/gears-users/browse_thread/thread/efbd808325df607a/c73adb34f9b63cf7?hl=en&q=whatwg#c73adb34f9b63cf7


     * Multiuser appcaches.

       If the application code (HTML, JS, CSS) is all the same for two
       users, then appcache works for multiple users by just having
       the data for the users separate from the logic.

       This is the expected model for most apps. For example, your
       typical blog has just one set of CSS for all users.

       For systems where the user affects what HTML, JS, and CSS is
       served back, the spec as written pretty much requires that
       there be one app per user, and one generic "login" app that
       then redirects to one of those other apps - and where each app
       has a different base URL, separate manifest, etc.

       An alternative that we could explore in a future version is to
       have the manifest include a manifest name, and then have script
       that allows you to "activate" a particular manifest name for a
       given appcache.

       So each appcache group would be further subdivided into named
       subgroups, and for a given manifest URL with such a group of
       subgroups, one subgroup would be the default one at a time. The
       inactive ones would just lie dormant, but and the active ones
       would act like now, but there'd be a scripted way to change the
       default (and maybe query what available variants exist for the
       current appcache), so that you could log back in as someone
       else by just making the script pick the other user's variant,
       and then reloading.


     * Add and remove specific additional files from the cache (e.g.
       precaching new master entries).

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>In order to enable users to continue interacting with Web
  applications and documents even when their network connection is
  unavailable — for instance, because they are traveling outside
  of their ISP's coverage area — authors can provide a manifest
  which lists the files that are needed for the Web application to
  work offline and which causes the user's browser to keep a copy of
  the files for use offline.</p>

  <p>To illustrate this, consider a simple clock applet consisting of
  an HTML page "<code title="">clock.html</code>", a CSS style sheet
  "<code title="">clock.css</code>", and a JavaScript script "<code title="">clock.js</code>".</p>

  <p>Before adding the manifest, these three files might look like
  this:</p>

  <pre>EXAMPLE offline/clock/clock1.html</pre>
  <pre>EXAMPLE offline/clock/clock1.css</pre>
  <pre>EXAMPLE offline/clock/clock1.js</pre>

  <p>If the user tries to open the "<code title="">clock.html</code>"
  page while offline, though, the user agent (unless it happens to
  have it still in the local cache) will fail with an error.</p>

  <p>The author can instead provide a manifest of the three files, say
  "<code title="">clock.appcache</code>":</p>

  <pre>EXAMPLE offline/clock/clock2.appcache</pre>

  <p>With a small change to the HTML file, the manifest (served as
  <code><a href="#text/cache-manifest">text/cache-manifest</a></code>) is linked to the application:</p>

  <pre>EXAMPLE offline/clock/clock2.html</pre>

  <p>Now, if the user goes to the page, the browser will cache the
  files and make them available even when the user is offline.</p>

  <p class="note">Authors are encouraged to include the main page in
  the manifest also, but in practice the page that referenced the
  manifest is automatically cached even if it isn't explicitly
  mentioned.</p>

  <p class="note">With the exception of "no-store" directive, HTTP
  cache headers and restrictions on caching pages served over TLS
  (encrypted, using <code title="">https:</code>) are overridden by
  manifests. Thus, pages will not expire from an application cache
  before the user agent has updated it, and even applications served
  over TLS can be made to work offline.</p>

  <h5 id="supporting-offline-caching-for-legacy-applications"><span class="secno">5.7.1.1 </span>Supporting offline caching for legacy applications</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The application cache feature works best if the application logic is separate from the
  application and user data, with the logic (markup, scripts, style sheets, images, etc) listed in
  the manifest and stored in the application cache, with a finite number of static HTML pages for
  the application, and with the application and user data stored in Web Storage or a client-side
  Indexed Database, updated dynamically using Web Sockets, <code>XMLHttpRequest</code>, server-sent
  events, or some other similar mechanism.</p>

  <p>This model results in a fast experience for the user: the application immediately loads, and
  fresh data is obtained as fast as the network will allow it (possibly while stale data shows).</p>

  <p>Legacy applications, however, tend to be designed so that the user data and the logic are mixed
  together in the HTML, with each operation resulting in a new HTML page from the server.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, consider a news application. The typical architecture of such an application,
   when not using the application cache feature, is that the user fetches the main page, and the
   server returns a dynamically-generated page with the current headlines and the user interface
   logic mixed together.</p>

   <p>A news application designed for the application cache feature, however, would instead have the
   main page just consist of the logic, and would then have the main page fetch the data separately
   from the server, e.g. using <code>XMLHttpRequest</code>.</p>

  </div>

  <p>The mixed-content model does not work well with the application cache feature: since the
  content is cached, it would result in the user always seeing the stale data from the previous time
  the cache was updated.</p>

  <p>While there is no way to make the legacy model work as fast as the separated model, it
  <em>can</em> at least be retrofitted for offline use using the <a href="#concept-appcache-mode-prefer-online" title="concept-appcache-mode-prefer-online">prefer-online</a> <a href="#concept-appcache-mode" title="concept-appcache-mode">application cache mode</a>. To do so, list all the static
  resources used by the HTML page you want to have work offline in an <a href="#concept-appcache-manifest" title="concept-appcache-manifest">application cache manifest</a>, use the <code title="attr-html-manifest"><a href="#attr-html-manifest">manifest</a></code> attribute to select that manifest from the HTML file,
  and then add the following line at the bottom of the manifest:</p>

  <pre>SETTINGS:
prefer-online
NETWORK:
*</pre>

  <p>This causes the <a href="#application-cache">application cache</a> to only be used for <a href="#concept-appcache-master" title="concept-appcache-master">master entries</a> when the user is offline, and causes the
  application cache to be used as an atomic HTTP cache (essentially pinning resources listed in the
  manifest), while allowing all resources not listed in the manifest to be accessed normally when
  the user is online.</p>



  <h5 id="appcacheevents"><span class="secno">5.7.1.2 </span>Event summary</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>When the user visits a page that declares a manifest, the browser
  will try to update the cache. It does this by fetching a copy of the
  manifest and, if the manifest has changed since the user agent last
  saw it, redownloading all the resources it mentions and caching them
  anew.</p>

  <p>As this is going on, a number of events get fired on the
  <code><a href="#applicationcache">ApplicationCache</a></code> object to keep the script updated as
  to the state of the cache update, so that the user can be notified
  appropriately. The events are as follows:</p>

  <h5 id="writing-cache-manifests"><span class="secno">5.7.3.2 </span>Writing cache manifests</h5>

  <p>Manifests must be served using the <code><a href="#text/cache-manifest">text/cache-manifest</a></code> <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>. All
  resources served using the <code><a href="#text/cache-manifest">text/cache-manifest</a></code> <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a> must follow the
  syntax of application cache manifests, as described in this section.</p>

  <p>An application cache manifest is a text file, whose text is encoded using UTF-8. Data in
  application cache manifests is line-based. Newlines must be represented by "LF" (U+000A)
  characters, "CR" (U+000D) characters, or "CR" (U+000D) "LF" (U+000A) pairs. <a href="#refsRFC3629">[RFC3629]</a></p>

  <p class="note">This is a <a href="#willful-violation">willful violation</a> of RFC 2046, which requires all <code title="">text/*</code> types to only allow CRLF line breaks. This requirement, however, is
  outdated; the use of CR, LF, and CRLF line breaks is commonly supported and indeed sometimes CRLF
  is <em>not</em> supported by text editors. <a href="#refsRFC2046">[RFC2046]</a></p>

  <p>The first line of an application cache manifest must consist of the string "CACHE", a single
  U+0020 SPACE character, the string "MANIFEST", and either a U+0020 SPACE character, a "tab" (U+0009) character, a "LF" (U+000A) character, or a "CR" (U+000D) character. The first line may optionally be preceded by a "BOM" (U+FEFF)
  character. If any other text is found on the first line, it is ignored.</p>

  <p>Subsequent lines, if any, must all be one of the following:</p>

  <dl>
   <dt>A blank line
   </dt><dd>
    <p>Blank lines must consist of zero or more U+0020 SPACE and
    "tab" (U+0009) characters only.</p>

   </dd><dt>A comment
   </dt><dd>
    <p>Comment lines must consist of zero or more U+0020 SPACE and "tab" (U+0009)
    characters, followed by a single "#" (U+0023) character, followed by zero or more
    characters other than "LF" (U+000A) and "CR" (U+000D) characters.</p>

    <p class="note">Comments must be on a line on their own. If they were to be included on a line
    with a URL, the "#" would be mistaken for part of a fragment identifier.</p>

   </dd><dt>A section header
   </dt><dd>

    <p>Section headers change the current section. There are four possible section headers:

    </p><dl>

     <dt><code>CACHE:</code>
     </dt><dd>Switches to the <dfn id="concept-appcache-manifest-explicit" title="concept-appcache-manifest-explicit">explicit section</dfn>.

     </dt><dd>Switches to the <dfn id="concept-appcache-manifest-settings" title="concept-appcache-manifest-settings">settings section</dfn>.

    </dd></dl>

    <p>Section header lines must consist of zero or more U+0020 SPACE and "tab" (U+0009) characters, followed by one of the names above (including the ":)" (U+003A) character followed by zero or more U+0020 SPACE and "tab" (U+0009)
    characters.</p>

   </dd><dt>Data for the current section
   </dt><dd>

    <p>The format that data lines must take depends on the current section.</p>

    <p>When the current section is the <a href="#concept-appcache-manifest-explicit" title="concept-appcache-manifest-explicit">explicit

    another <a href="#valid-url">valid URL</a> identifying a resource other than the manifest itself, and then
    zero or more U+0020 SPACE and "tab" (U+0009) characters.</p>

    <p>When the current section is the <a href="#concept-appcache-manifest-network" title="concept-appcache-manifest-network">online

    concept-appcache-onlinewhitelist-wildcard --> or a <a href="#valid-url">valid URL</a> identifying a resource
    other than the manifest itself, and then zero or more U+0020 SPACE and "tab" (U+0009) characters.</p>

    <p>When the current section is the <a href="#concept-appcache-manifest-settings" title="concept-appcache-manifest-settings">settings

  <h4 id="downloading-or-updating-an-application-cache"><span class="secno">5.7.4 </span>Downloading or updating an application cache</h4>

  <p>When the user agent is required (by other parts of this specification) to start the
  <dfn id="application-cache-download-process">application cache download process</dfn> for an <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> purported to
  identify a <a href="#concept-appcache-manifest" title="concept-appcache-manifest">manifest</a>, or for an <a href="#application-cache-group">application
  cache group</a>, potentially given a particular <a href="#cache-host">cache host</a>, and potentially given
  a <a href="#concept-appcache-master" title="concept-appcache-master">master</a> resource, the user agent must run the steps
  below. These steps are always run asynchronously, in parallel with the <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a>
  <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a>.</p>

  <p>Some of these steps have requirements that only apply if the user agent <dfn id="shows-caching-progress">shows caching
  progress</dfn>. Support for this is optional. Caching progress UI could consist of a progress bar
  or message panel in the user agent's interface, or an overlay, or something else. Certain events
  fired during the <a href="#application-cache-download-process">application cache download process</a> allow the script to override the
  display of such an interface. (Such events are delayed until after the <code title="event-load">load</code> event has fired.)

  The goal of this is to allow Web applications to provide more
  seamless update mechanisms, hiding from the user the mechanics of the application cache mechanism.
  User agents may display user interfaces independent of this, but are encouraged to not show
  prominent update progress notifications for applications that cancel the relevant events.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#application-cache-download-process">application cache download process</a> steps are as follows:

  </p><ol>

   <li><p>Optionally, wait until the permission to start the <a href="#application-cache-download-process">application cache download
   process</a> has been obtained from the user and until the user agent is confident that the
   network is available. This could include doing nothing until the user explicitly opts-in to
   caching the site, or could involve prompting the user for permission. The algorithm might never
   get past this point. (This step is particularly intended to be used by user agents running on
   severely space-constrained devices or in highly privacy-sensitive environments).</p></li>

   <li>

    <p>Atomically, so as to avoid race conditions, perform the following substeps:</p>

  <h4 id="expiring-application-caches"><span class="secno">5.7.7 </span>Expiring application caches</h4>

  <p>As a general rule, user agents should not expire application
  caches, except on request from the user, or after having been left
  unused for an extended period of time.</p>

  <p>Application caches and cookies have similar implications with
  respect to privacy (e.g. if the site can identify the user when
  providing the cache, it can store data in the cache that can be used
  for cookie resurrection). Implementors are therefore encouraged to
  expose application caches in a manner related to HTTP cookies,
  allowing caches to be expunged together with cookies and other
  origin-specific data.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, a user agent could have a "delete
  site-specific data" feature that clears all cookies, application
  caches, local storage, databases, etc, from an origin all at
  once.</p>

  </div>


  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="disk-space"><span class="secno">5.7.8 </span>Disk space</h4>

  <p>User agents should consider applying constraints on disk usage of
  <a href="#application-cache" title="application cache">application caches</a>, and care
  should be taken to ensure that the restrictions cannot be easily
  worked around using subdomains.</p>

  <p>User agents should allow users to see how much space each domain
  is using, and may offer the user the ability to delete specific
  <a href="#application-cache" title="application cache">application caches</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">How quotas are presented to the user is not defined
  by this specification. User agents are encouraged to provide
  features such as allowing a user to indicate that certain sites are
  trusted to use more than the default quota, e.g. by asynchronously
  presenting a user interface while a cache is being updated, or by
  having an explicit whitelist in the user agent's configuration
  interface.</p>

    <p>The method can be useful in situations such as long-lived

    <p>A code entry-point represents a block of executable code that the script exposes to other

    executed immediately after the script is parsed, but for event handlers, it is called each time
    the handler is invoked.</p>

   <dt>A <dfn id="script-execution-environment">script execution environment</dfn></dt>

   <dd>

    <p>The characteristics of the script execution environment depend on the language, and are not
    defined by this specification.</p>

    <p class="example">In JavaScript, the script execution environment consists of the interpreter,
    the stack of <i>execution contexts</i>, the <i>global code</i> and <i>function code</i> and the
    <code>Function</code> objects resulting, and so forth.</p>

   <dd>

    <p>An object that provides the APIs that the code can use.</p>

    <p class="example">This is typically a <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object. In JavaScript, this
    corresponds to the <i>global object</i>.</p>

    <p class="note">When a <a href="#script's-global-object">script's global object</a> is an empty object, it can't do
    anything that interacts with the environment.</p>

    <p>If the <a href="#script's-global-object">script's global object</a> is a <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object, then in
    JavaScript, the ThisBinding of the global execution context for this script must be the
    <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object's <code><a href="#windowproxy">WindowProxy</a></code> object, rather than the global object. <a href="#refsECMA262">[ECMA262]</a></p>

    <p class="note">This is a <a href="#willful-violation">willful violation</a> of the JavaScript specification current
    at the time of writing (ECMAScript edition 5, as defined in section 10.4.1.1 Initial Global
    Execution Context, step 3). The JavaScript specification requires that the <code title="">this</code> keyword in the global scope return the global object, but this is not

  <p>User agents may impose resource limitations on scripts, for

  bandwidth limitations. When a script exceeds a limit, the user agent
  may either throw a <code><a href="#quotaexceedederror">QuotaExceededError</a></code> exception, abort
  the script without an exception, prompt the user, or throttle script
  execution.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, the following script never terminates. A user agent
   could, after waiting for a few seconds, prompt the user to either
   terminate the script or let it continue.</p>

   <pre>&lt;script&gt;
 while (true) { /* loop */ }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>User agents are encouraged to allow users to disable scripting
  whenever the user is prompted either by a script (e.g. using the
  <code title="dom-alert"><a href="#dom-alert">window.alert()</a></code> API) or because of a
  script's actions (e.g. because it has exceeded a time limit).</p>

  <p>If scripting is disabled while a script is executing, the script
  should be terminated immediately.</p>

  <p>User agents may allow users to specifically disable scripts just
  for the purposes of closing a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>.</p>

  <h4 id="event-loops"><span class="secno">6.1.4 </span>Event loops</h4>

  <h5 id="definitions-1"><span class="secno">6.1.4.1 </span>Definitions</h5>

  <p>To coordinate events, user interaction, scripts, rendering, networking, and so forth, user
  agents must use <dfn id="event-loop" title="event loop">event loops</dfn> as described in this section.</p>

  <p>There must be at least one <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> per user agent, and at most one <a href="#event-loop">event
  loop</a> per <a href="#unit-of-related-similar-origin-browsing-contexts">unit of related similar-origin browsing contexts</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">When there is more than one <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> for a <a href="#unit-of-related-browsing-contexts">unit of related
  browsing contexts</a>, complications arise when a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> in that group
  is <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigated</a> such that it switches from one <a href="#unit-of-related-similar-origin-browsing-contexts">unit of related
  similar-origin browsing contexts</a> to another. This specification does not currently describe
  how to handle these complications.</p>

  <p>An <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> always has at least one <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>. If an
  <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a>'s <a href="#browsing-context" title="browsing context">browsing contexts</a> all go away,
  then the <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> goes away as well. A <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> always has an
  <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> coordinating its activities.</p>

    <p class="note">Other specifications can define new kinds of event
  loops that aren't associated with browsing contexts; in particular,
  the Web Workers specification does so.</p>
  
  <p>An <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> has one or more <dfn id="task-queue" title="task queue">task queues</dfn>. A
  <a href="#task-queue">task queue</a> is an ordered list of <dfn id="concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</dfn>, which can
  be:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>Events</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>Asynchronously dispatching an <code><a href="#event">Event</a></code> object at a particular
    <code><a href="#eventtarget">EventTarget</a></code> object is a task.</p>

    <p class="note">Not all events are dispatched using the <a href="#task-queue">task queue</a>, many are
    dispatched synchronously during other tasks.</p>

   </dd>


   <dt>Parsing</dt>

   <dd><p>The <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a> tokenizing one or more bytes, and then processing any
   resulting tokens, is typically a task.</p></dd>


   <dt>Callbacks</dt>

   <dd><p>Calling a callback asynchronously is a task.</p></dd>


   <dt>Using a resource</dt>

   <dd><p>When an algorithm <a href="#fetch" title="fetch">fetches</a> a resource, if the fetching occurs
   asynchronously then the processing of the resource once some or all of the resource is available
   is a task.</p></dd>


   <dt>Reacting to DOM manipulation</dt>

   <dd><p>Some elements have tasks that trigger in response to DOM manipulation, e.g. when that
   element is <a href="#insert-an-element-into-a-document" title="insert an element into a document">inserted into the document</a>.</p>

  </dd></dl>

  <p>Each <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">task</a> is associated with a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>; if the
  task was queued in the context of an element, then it is the element's <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>; if
  the task was queued in the context of a <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>, then it is the
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>'s <a href="#active-document">active document</a> at the time the task was queued; if
  the task was queued by or for a <a href="#concept-script" title="concept-script">script</a> then the document is
  the <a href="#script's-document">script's document</a>.</p>

  <p>A <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">task</a> is intended for a specific <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a>:
  the <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> that is handling <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a> for the <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">task</a>'s associated <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p>When a user agent is to <dfn id="queue-a-task">queue a task</dfn>, it must add the given task to one of the <a href="#task-queue" title="task queue">task queues</a> of the relevant <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a>.</p>

  <p>Each <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">task</a> is defined as coming from a specific <dfn id="task-source">task
  source</dfn>. All the tasks from one particular <a href="#task-source">task source</a> and destined to a
  particular <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> (e.g. the callbacks generated by timers of a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, the events fired for mouse movements over that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, the
  tasks queued for the parser of that <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>) must always be added to the same
  <a href="#task-queue">task queue</a>, but <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a> from different <a href="#task-source" title="task source">task sources</a> may be placed in different <a href="#task-queue" title="task queue">task
  queues</a>.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, a user agent could have one <a href="#task-queue">task queue</a> for mouse and
  key events (the <a href="#user-interaction-task-source">user interaction task source</a>), and another for everything else. The
  user agent could then give keyboard and mouse events preference over other tasks three quarters of
  the time, keeping the interface responsive but not starving other task queues, and never
  processing events from any one <a href="#task-source">task source</a> out of order.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>A user agent may have one <dfn id="storage-mutex">storage mutex</dfn>. This mutex is used to control access to
  shared state like cookies. At any one point, the <a href="#storage-mutex">storage mutex</a> is either free, or
  owned by a particular <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> or instance of the <a href="#fetch" title="fetch">fetching</a> algorithm.</p>

  <p>If a user agent does not implement a <a href="#storage-mutex">storage mutex</a>, it is exempt from implementing
  the requirements that require it to acquire or release it.</p>

  <p class="note">User agent implementors have to make a choice between two evils. On the one hand,
  not implementing the storage mutex means that there is a risk of data corruption: a site could,
  for instance, try to read a cookie, increment its value, then write it back out, using the new
  value of the cookie as a unique identifier for the session; if the site does this twice in two
  different browser windows at the same time, it might end up using the same "unique" identifier for
  both sessions, with potentially disastrous effects. On the other hand, implementing the storage
  mutex has potentially serious performance implications: whenever a site uses Web Storage or
  cookies, all other sites that try to use Web Storage or cookies are blocked until the first site
  finishes.</p>

  <p>Whenever a <a href="#concept-script" title="concept-script">script</a> calls into a <a href="#plugin">plugin</a>, and
  whenever a <a href="#plugin">plugin</a> calls into a <a href="#concept-script" title="concept-script">script</a>, the user
  agent must release the <a href="#storage-mutex">storage mutex</a>.</p>


  <h5 id="processing-model-4"><span class="secno">6.1.4.2 </span>Processing model</h5>

  <p>An <a href="#event-loop">event loop</a> must continually run through the following steps for as long as it

  <p>When an <a href="#event-handlers" title="event handlers">event handler</a> <var title="">H</var> of an element
  or object <var title="">T</var> implementing the <code><a href="#eventtarget">EventTarget</a></code> interface is first set
  to a non-null value, the user agent must append an <a href="#concept-event-listener" title="concept-event-listener">event
  listener</a> to the list of <a href="#concept-event-listener" title="concept-event-listener">event listeners</a>
  associated with <var title="">T</var> with <i>type</i> set to the <dfn id="event-handler-event-type">event handler event
  type</dfn> corresponding to <var title="">H</var>, <i>capture</i> set to false, and
  <i>listener</i> set to <a href="#the-event-handler-processing-algorithm">the event handler processing algorithm</a> defined below. <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a></p>

  <p class="note">The <i>listener</i> is emphatically <em>not</em> the <a href="#event-handlers" title="event
  handlers">event handler</a> itself. Every event handler ends up registering the same
  <i>listener</i>, the algorithm defined below, which takes care of invoking the right callback, and
  processing the callback's return value.</p>

  <p class="note">This only happens the first time the <a href="#event-handlers" title="event handlers">event
  handler</a>'s value is set. Since listeners are called in the order they were registered, the
  order of event listeners for a particular event type will always be first the event listeners
  registered with <code title="dom-EventTarget-addEventListener">addEventListener()</code> before
  the first time the <a href="#event-handlers" title="event handlers">event handler</a> was set to a non-null value,
  then the callback to which it is currently set, if any, and finally the event listeners registered
  with <code title="dom-EventTarget-addEventListener">addEventListener()</code> <em>after</em> the
  first time the <a href="#event-handlers" title="event handlers">event handler</a> was set to a non-null value.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>This example demonstrates the order in which event listeners are invoked. If the button in
   this example is clicked by the user, the page will show four alerts, with the text "ONE", "TWO",
   "THREE", and "FOUR" respectively.</p>

   <pre>&lt;button id="test"&gt;Start Demo&lt;/button&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
 var button = document.getElementById('test');
 button.addEventListener('click', function () { alert('ONE') }, false);
 button.setAttribute('onclick', "alert('NOT CALLED')"); // event handler listener is registered here
 button.addEventListener('click', function () { alert('THREE') }, false);

  <p>The <code><a href="#eventhandler">EventHandler</a></code> callback function type represents a callback used for event
  handlers. It is represented in Web IDL as follows:</p>

  <pre class="idl">[TreatNonCallableAsNull]
callback <dfn id="eventhandlernonnull">EventHandlerNonNull</dfn> = any (<a href="#event">Event</a> event);
typedef <a href="#eventhandlernonnull">EventHandlerNonNull</a>? <dfn id="eventhandler">EventHandler</dfn>;</pre>

  <p class="note">In JavaScript, any <code>Function</code> object implements this interface.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, the following document fragment:</p>

   <pre>&lt;body onload="alert(this)" onclick="alert(this)"&gt;</pre>

   <p>...leads to an alert saying "<code title="">[object Window]</code>" when the document is
   loaded, and an alert saying "<code title="">[object HTMLBodyElement]</code>" whenever the
   user clicks something in the page.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">The return value of the function affects whether the event is canceled or not:
  <span class="impl">as described above,</span> if the return value is false, the event is canceled
  (except for <code class="event-mouseover">mouseover</code> events, where the return value has to
  be true to cancel the event). With <code title="event-beforeunload">beforeunload</code> events,
  the value is instead used to determine the message to show the user.</p>

  <p>For historical reasons, the <code title="handler-onerror"><a href="#handler-onerror">onerror</a></code> handler has different
  arguments:</p>

  <pre class="idl">[TreatNonCallableAsNull]
callback <dfn id="onerroreventhandlernonnull">OnErrorEventHandlerNonNull</dfn> = any ((<a href="#event">Event</a> or DOMString) event, optional DOMString source, optional unsigned long lineno, optional unsigned long column, optional any error);
typedef <a href="#onerroreventhandlernonnull">OnErrorEventHandlerNonNull</a>? <dfn id="onerroreventhandler">OnErrorEventHandler</dfn>;</pre>

  <p>Similarly, the <code title="handler-window-onbeforeunload"><a href="#handler-window-onbeforeunload">onbeforeunload</a></code> handler has a
  different return value:</p>

  <pre class="idl">[TreatNonCallableAsNull]
callback <dfn id="onbeforeunloadeventhandlernonnull">OnBeforeUnloadEventHandlerNonNull</dfn> = DOMString (<a href="#event">Event</a> event);
typedef <a href="#onbeforeunloadeventhandlernonnull">OnBeforeUnloadEventHandlerNonNull</a>? <dfn id="onbeforeunloadeventhandler">OnBeforeUnloadEventHandler</dfn>;</pre>

    <p class="example">For instance, a browser on a mobile device could detect that there are no

    <p class="example">The <code title="event-beforeprint">beforeprint</code> event can be used to

   <li>

    <p>The user agent must release the <a href="#storage-mutex">storage mutex</a>.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>The user agent should offer the user the opportunity to <a href="#obtain-a-physical-form">obtain a physical form</a>

    to either accept or decline before returning; if so, the user agent must <a href="#pause">pause</a>
    while the method is waiting. Even if the user agent doesn't wait at this point, the user agent
    must use the state of the relevant documents as they are at this point in the algorithm if and

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>The user agent must <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-afterprint">afterprint</code> at the <code><a href="#window">Window</a></code> object of the

    <p class="example">The <code title="event-afterprint">afterprint</code> event can be used to

  allows Web sites to register themselves as possible handlers for particular schemes. For example,
  an online telephone messaging service could register itself as a handler of the <code>sms:</code>
  scheme, so that if the user clicks on such a link, he is given the opportunity to use that Web

  allows Web sites to register themselves as possible handlers for content in a particular
  <a href="#mime-type">MIME type</a>. For example, the same online telephone messaging service could register
  itself as a handler for <code>text/vcard</code> files, so that if the user has no native

  <p>User agents may, within the constraints described in this section, do whatever they like when
  the methods are called. A UA could, for instance, prompt the user and offer the user the
  opportunity to add the site to a shortlist of handlers, or make the handlers his default, or
  cancel the request. UAs could provide such a UI through modal UI or through a non-modal transient
  notification interface. UAs could also simply silently collect the information, providing it only
  when relevant to the user.</p>

  <p>User agents should keep track of which sites have registered handlers (even if the user has
  declined such registrations) so that the user is not repeatedly prompted with the same
  request.</p>

  <p>The arguments to the methods have the following meanings and corresponding implementation

  <div class="impl">

  <h6 id="security-and-privacy"><span class="secno">6.5.1.3.1 </span>Security and privacy</h6>

  <p>These mechanisms can introduce a number of concerns, in particular privacy concerns.</p>

  <p><strong>Hijacking all Web usage.</strong> User agents should not allow schemes that are key to
  its normal operation, such as <code>http</code> or <code>https</code>, to be rerouted through
  third-party sites. This would allow a user's activities to be trivially tracked, and would allow
  user information, even in secure connections, to be collected.</p>

  <p><strong>Hijacking defaults.</strong> User agents are strongly urged to not automatically change
  any defaults, as this could lead the user to send data to remote hosts that the user is not
  expecting. New handlers registering themselves should never automatically cause those sites to be
  used.</p>

  <p><strong>Registration spamming.</strong> User agents should consider the possibility that a site
  will attempt to register a large number of handlers, possibly from multiple domains (e.g. by
  redirecting through a series of pages each on a different domain, and each registering a handler
  for <code>video/mpeg</code> — analogous practices abusing other Web browser features have
  been used by pornography Web sites for many years). User agents should gracefully handle such
  hostile attempts, protecting the user.</p>

  <p><strong>Misleading titles.</strong> User agents should not rely wholly on the <var title="">title</var> argument to the methods when presenting the registered handlers to the user,
  since sites could easily lie. For example, a site <code>hostile.example.net</code> could claim
  that it was registering the "Cuddly Bear Happy Content Handler". User agents should therefore use
  the handler's domain in any UI along with any title.</p>

  <p><strong>Hostile handler metadata.</strong> User agents should protect against typical attacks
  against strings embedded in their interface, for example ensuring that markup or escape characters
  in such strings are not executed, that null bytes are properly handled, that over-long strings do
  not cause crashes or buffer overruns, and so forth.</p>

  <p><strong>Leaking Intranet URLs.</strong> The mechanism described in this section can result in
  secret Intranet URLs being leaked, in the following manner:</p>

  <ol>

   <li>The user registers a third-party content handler as the default handler for a content
   type.</li>

   <li>The user then browses his corporate Intranet site and accesses a document that uses that
   content type.</li>

   <li>The user agent contacts the third party and hands the third party the URL to the Intranet
   content.</li>

  </ol>

  <p>No actual confidential file data is leaked in this manner, but the URLs themselves could
  contain confidential information. For example, the URL could be
  <code>http://www.corp.example.com/upcoming-aquisitions/the-sample-company.egf</code>, which might
  tell the third party that Example Corporation is intending to merge with The Sample Company.
  Implementors might wish to consider allowing administrators to disable this feature for certain
  subdomains, content types, or schemes.</p>

  <p><strong>Leaking secure URLs.</strong> User agents should not send HTTPS URLs to third-party
  sites registered as content handlers without the user's informed consent, for the same reason that
  user agents sometimes avoid sending <code title="http-referer">Referer</code> (sic) HTTP headers
  from secure sites to third-party sites.</p>

  <p><strong>Leaking credentials.</strong> User agents must never send username or password
  information in the URLs that are escaped and included sent to the handler sites. User agents may
  even avoid attempting to pass to Web-based handlers the URLs of resources that are known to
  require authentication to access, as such sites would be unable to access the resources in
  question without prompting the user for credentials themselves (a practice that would require the
  user to know whether to trust the third-party handler, a decision many users are unable to make or
  even understand).</p>

  <p><strong>Interface interference.</strong> User agents should be prepared to handle intentionally
  long arguments to the methods. For example, if the user interface exposed consists of an "accept"
  button and a "deny" button, with the "accept" binding containing the name of the handler, it's
  important that a long name not cause the "deny" button to be pushed off the screen.</p>

  <p><strong>Fingerprinting users.</strong> Since a site can detect if it has attempted to register
  a particular handler or not, whether or not the user responds, the mechanism can be used to store
  data. User agents are therefore strongly urged to treat registrations in the same manner as
  cookies: clearing cookies for a site should also clear all registrations for that site, and
  disabling cookies for a site should also disable registrations.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <h6 id="sample-handler-impl"><span class="secno">6.5.1.3.2 </span>Sample user interface</h6>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>A simple implementation of this feature for a desktop Web browser might work as follows.</p>

  <p>The <code title="dom-navigator-registerContentHandler"><a href="#dom-navigator-registercontenthandler">registerContentHandler()</a></code> method
  could display a modal dialog box:</p>

  <p><img alt="The modal dialog box could have the title 'Content Handler Registration', and could say 'This Web page: Kittens at work http://kittens.example.org/ ...would like permission to handle files of type: application/x-meowmeow using the following Web-based application: Kittens-at-work displayer http://kittens.example.org/?show=%s Do you trust the administrators of the &quot;kittens.example.org&quot; domain?' with two buttons, 'Trust kittens.example.org' and 'Cancel'." height="374" src="images/sample-content-handler-registration.png" width="534"></p>

  <p>In this dialog box, "Kittens at work" is the title of the page that invoked the method,
  "http://kittens.example.org/" is the URL of that page, "application/x-meowmeow" is the string that
  was passed to the <code title="dom-navigator-registerContentHandler"><a href="#dom-navigator-registercontenthandler">registerContentHandler()</a></code> method as its first
  argument (<var title="">mimeType</var>), "http://kittens.example.org/?show=%s" was the second
  argument (<var title="">url</var>), and "Kittens-at-work displayer" was the third argument (<var title="">title</var>).</p>

  <p>If the user clicks the Cancel button, then nothing further happens. If the user clicks the
  "Trust" button, then the handler is remembered.</p>

  <p>When the user then attempts to fetch a URL that uses the "application/x-meowmeow" <a href="#mime-type">MIME
  type</a>, then it might display a dialog as follows:</p>

  <p><img alt="The dialog box could have the title 'Unknown File Type' and could say 'You have attempted to access:' followed by a URL, followed by a prompt such as 'How would you like FerretBrowser to handle this resource?' with three radio buttons, one saying 'Contact the FerretBrowser plugin registry to see if there is an official way to handle this resource.', one saying 'Pass this URL to a local application' with an application selector, and one saying 'Pass this URL to the &quot;Kittens-at-work displayer&quot; application at &quot;kittens.example.org&quot;', with a checkbox labeled 'Always do this for resources using the &quot;application/x-meowmeow&quot; type in future.', and with two buttons, 'Ok' and 'Cancel'." height="428" src="images/sample-content-handler.png" width="577"></p>

  <p>In this dialog, the third option is the one that was primed by the site registering itself
  earlier.</p>

  <p>If the user does select that option, then the browser, in accordance with the requirements
  described in the previous two sections, will redirect the user to
  "http://kittens.example.org/?show=data%3Aapplication/x-meowmeow;base64,S2l0dGVucyBhcmUgdGhlIGN1dGVzdCE%253D".</p>

  <p>The <code title="dom-navigator-registerProtocolHandler"><a href="#dom-navigator-registerprotocolhandler">registerProtocolHandler()</a></code> method
  would work equivalently, but for schemes instead of unknown content types.</p>

  <h3 id="the-hidden-attribute"><span class="secno">7.1 </span>The <dfn title="attr-hidden"><code>hidden</code></dfn> attribute</h3>

  <p>All <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> may have the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> content attribute set. The <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute is a <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean
  attribute</a>. When specified on an element, it indicates that
  the element is not yet, or is no longer, directly relevant to the
  page's current state, or that it is being used to declare content to
  be reused by other parts of the page as opposed to being directly
  accessed by the user. <span class="impl">User agents should not
  render elements that have the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute specified.</span></p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following skeletal example, the attribute is used to hide
   the Web game's main screen until the user logs in:</p>

   <pre>  &lt;h1&gt;The Example Game&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;section id="login"&gt;
   &lt;h2&gt;Login&lt;/h2&gt;
   &lt;form&gt;
    ...
    &lt;!-- calls login() once the user's credentials have been checked --&gt;
   &lt;/form&gt;
   &lt;script&gt;
    function login() {
      // switch screens
      document.getElementById('login').hidden = true;
      document.getElementById('game').hidden = false;
    }
   &lt;/script&gt;
  &lt;/section&gt;
  &lt;section id="game" hidden&gt;
   ...
  &lt;/section&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <p>The <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute must not be
  used to hide content that could legitimately be shown in another
  presentation. For example, it is incorrect to use <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> to hide panels in a tabbed dialog,
  because the tabbed interface is merely a kind of overflow
  presentation — one could equally well just show all the form
  controls in one big page with a scrollbar. It is similarly incorrect
  to use this attribute to hide content just from one presentation
  — if something is marked <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>, it is hidden from all
  presentations, including, for instance, printers.</p><!--bug
  19406-->

  <!-- for example, "<a hidden href=#content>Skip to content</a>" would be inappropriate. -->
  <!-- (but only add that example if you first add some more good valid examples -->

  <p>Elements that are not themselves <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> must not <a href="#hyperlink">hyperlink</a> to
  elements that are <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>. The <code title="">for</code> attributes of <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> and
  <code><a href="#the-output-element">output</a></code> elements that are not themselves <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> must similarly not refer to
  elements that are <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>. In both
  cases, such references would cause user confusion.</p>

  <p>Elements and scripts may, however, refer to elements that are
  <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> in other contexts.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, it would be incorrect to use the <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute to link to a
   section marked with the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>
   attribute. If the content is not applicable or relevant, then there
   is no reason to link to it.</p>

   <p>It would be fine, however, to use the ARIA <code title="attr-aria-describedby">aria-describedby</code> attribute to
   refer to descriptions that are themselves <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>. While hiding the descriptions
   implies that they are not useful alone, they could be written in
   such a way that they are useful in the specific context of being
   referenced from the images that they describe.</p>

   <p>Similarly, a <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> element with the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute could be used by a
   scripted graphics engine as an off-screen buffer, and a form
   control could refer to a hidden <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element using its
   <code title="attr-fae-form"><a href="#attr-fae-form">form</a></code> attribute.</p>

  </div>

  <p>Accessibility APIs are encouraged to provide a way to expose
  structured content while marking it as hidden in the default view.
  Such content should not be perceivable to users in the normal document
  flow in any modality, whether using Assistive Technology (AT) or
  mainstream User Agents.</p>

  <p>When such features are available, User Agents may use them to
  expose the full semantics of <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>
  elements to AT when appropriate, if such content is referenced
  indirectly by an <a href="#concept-id" title="concept-id">ID reference</a> or
  <a href="#valid-hash-name-reference">valid hash-name reference</a>. This allows ATs to access the
  structure of these <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> elements
  upon user request, while keeping the content hidden in all
  presentations of the normal document flow. Authors who wish to prevent
  user-initiated viewing of a <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code>
  element should not reference the element with such a mechanism.</p>

  <p class="auth">Because some User Agents have flattened hidden content when
  exposing such content to AT, authors should not reference <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> content which would lose essential
  meaning when flattened.</p>

  <p>For example, it would be appropriate for the structure of <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> table headers referenced from a
  <code title="attr-tdth-headers"><a href="#attr-tdth-headers">headers</a></code> attribute to be exposed
  to users of AT with such an API.</p>

  <p>Cases where it would be inappropriate for the structure of <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> elements to be exposed to users of
  AT with such an API include:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>a <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> element referenced by
   an <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute within the
   same document</li>

   <li>a <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> form element referenced
   by a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element's <code title="attr-label-for"><a href="#attr-label-for">for</a></code> attribute (because the sorts of
   elements referenced from a <code><a href="#the-label-element">label</a></code> element's <code title="attr-label-for"><a href="#attr-label-for">for</a></code> attribute lose meaning when
   flattened)</li>

  </ul>

  <p>Specifications which define elements and attributes which may be
  included in <a href="#conforming-documents" title="Conforming documents">conforming HTML5
  documents</a> (such as SVG, MathML, and WAI-ARIA) may define how or
  whether this applies to their elements and attributes. <a href="#refsARIA">[ARIA]</a> <a href="#refsMATHML">[MATHML]</a> <a href="#refsSVG">[SVG]</a></p>

  <p>Elements in a section hidden by the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute are still active,
  e.g. scripts and form controls in such sections still execute

  <h3 id="inert-subtrees"><span class="secno">7.2 </span>Inert subtrees</h3>

  <p>A subtree of a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> can be marked as
  <dfn id="inert">inert</dfn>. When a node or one of its ancestors is
  <a href="#inert">inert</a>, then the user agent must act as if the element
  was absent for the purposes of targeting user interaction events,
  may ignore the node for the purposes of text search user interfaces
  (commonly known as "find in page"), and may prevent the user from
  selecting text in that node. User agents should allow the user to
  override the restrictions on search and text selection, however.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, consider a page that consists of
  just a single <a href="#inert">inert</a> paragraph positioned in the middle
  of a <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>. If a user moves their pointing device from
  the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> over to the <a href="#inert">inert</a> paragraph and
  clicks on the paragraph, no <code title="event-mouseover">mouseover</code> event would be fired, and
  the <code title="event-mousemove">mousemove</code> and <code title="event-click"><a href="#event-click">click</a></code> events would be fired on the
  <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element rather than the paragraph.</p>

  <p class="note">When a node or one of its ancestors is inert, it
  also can't be <a href="#focusable">focusable</a>, and it is disabled if it is a
  <a href="#concept-command" title="concept-command">command</a>.</p>

  <p>An entire <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> can be marked as <dfn id="blocked-by-a-modal-dialog">blocked by
  a modal dialog</dfn> <var title="">subject</var>. While a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is so marked, every node that is <a href="#in-a-document" title="in a Document">in the <code>Document</code></a>, with the
  exception of the <var title="">subject</var> element, its ancestors,
  and its descendants, must be marked <a href="#inert">inert</a>. (The
  elements excepted by this paragraph can additionally be marked
  <a href="#inert">inert</a> through other means; being part of a modal dialog
  does not "protect" a node from being marked <a href="#inert">inert</a>.)</p>

  <p>Only one element at a time can mark a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> as
  being <a href="#blocked-by-a-modal-dialog">blocked by a modal dialog</a>. When a new
  <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> is made to <a href="#blocked-by-a-modal-dialog" title="blocked by a modal
  dialog">block</a> a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, the previous element,
  if any, stops blocking the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.</p>

  <p class="note">The <code><a href="#the-dialog-element">dialog</a></code> element's <code title="dom-dialog-showModal"><a href="#dom-dialog-showmodal">showModal()</a></code> method makes use of
  this mechanism.</p>


  <h4 id="the-inert-attribute"><span class="secno">7.2.1 </span>The <dfn title="attr-inert"><code>inert</code></dfn> attribute</h4>

  <p>The <code title="attr-inert"><a href="#the-inert-attribute">inert</a></code> attribute is a
  <a href="#boolean-attribute">boolean attribute</a> that indicates, by its presence, that
  the element is to be made <a href="#inert">inert</a>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>When an element has an <code title="attr-inert"><a href="#the-inert-attribute">inert</a></code>
  attribute, the user agent must mark that element as
  <a href="#inert">inert</a>.</p>

  </div>

  <p class="note">By default, there is no visual indication of a
  subtree being inert. Authors are encouraged to clearly mark what
  parts of their document are active and which are inert, to avoid
  user confusion. In particular, it is worth remembering that not all
  users can see all parts of a page at once; for example, users of
  screen readers, users on small devices or with magnifiers, and even
  users just using particularly small windows might not be able to see
  the active part of a page and may get frustrated if inert sections
  are not obviously inert. For individual controls, the <code title="attr-input-disabled">disabled</code> attribute is probably
  more appropriate.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="attr-tabindex" title="attr-tabindex"><code>tabindex</code></dfn>
  content attribute allows authors to control whether an element is
  supposed to be focusable, whether it is supposed to be reachable
  using sequential focus navigation, and what is to be the relative
  order of the element for the purposes of sequential focus
  navigation. The name "tab index" comes from the common use of the
  "tab" key to navigate through the focusable elements. The term
  "tabbing" refers to moving forward through the focusable elements
  that can be reached using sequential focus navigation.</p>

  <p>The <code title="attr-tabindex"><a href="#attr-tabindex">tabindex</a></code> attribute, if
  specified, must have a value that is a <a href="#valid-integer">valid
  integer</a>.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>Each element can have a <dfn id="specially-focusable">tabindex focus flag</dfn> set, as defined
  below. This flag is a factor that contributes towards determining whether an element is
  <a href="#focusable">focusable</a>, as described in the next section.</p>

  <p>If the attribute is specified, it must be parsed using the
  <a href="#rules-for-parsing-integers">rules for parsing integers</a>. The attribute's values have
  the following meanings:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>If the attribute is omitted or parsing the value returns an
   error</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>The user agent should follow platform conventions to determine
    if the element's <a href="#specially-focusable">tabindex focus flag</a> is set and, if
    so, whether the element can be reached using sequential focus
    navigation, and if so, what its relative order should be.</p>

    <p>Modulo platform conventions, it is suggested that for the following elements, the
    <a href="#specially-focusable">tabindex focus flag</a> be set:</p>

    <ul>

     <li><code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> elements that have an <code title="attr-hyperlink-href"><a href="#attr-hyperlink-href">href</a></code> attribute</li>

     <li><code><a href="#the-button-element">button</a></code> elements</li>

     <li><code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements whose <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute are not in the

     <li>Elements with a <code title="attr-draggable"><a href="#the-draggable-attribute">draggable</a></code>

     elements</a></li>

    </ul>

    <p class="note">One valid reason to ignore the platform
    conventions and always allow an element to be focused (by setting
    its <a href="#specially-focusable">tabindex focus flag</a>) would be if the user's only
    mechanism for activating an element is through a keyboard action
    that triggers the focused element.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt id="negative-tabindex">If the value is a negative integer</dt>

   <dd>

    <p>The user agent must set the element's <a href="#specially-focusable">tabindex focus
    flag</a>, but should not allow the element to be reached using
    sequential focus navigation.</p>

    <p class="note">One valid reason to ignore the requirement that
    sequential focus navigation not allow the author to lead to the

   <li>

    <p>Make the element the currently focused element in its

    <p>Some elements, most notably <code><a href="#the-area-element">area</a></code>, can correspond
    to more than one distinct focusable area. If a particular area was
    indicated when the element was focused, then that is the area that
    must get focus; otherwise, e.g. when using the <code title="dom-focus"><a href="#dom-focus">focus()</a></code> method, the first such region in
    tree order is the one that must be focused.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>The user agent may apply relevant platform-specific conventions
    for focusing widgets.</p>

    <p class="note">For example, some platforms select the contents of

  <h3 id="assigning-keyboard-shortcuts"><span class="secno">7.5 </span>Assigning keyboard shortcuts</h3>

  <h4 id="introduction-6"><span class="secno">7.5.1 </span>Introduction</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Each element that can be activated or focused can be assigned a
  single key combination to activate it, using the <code title="attr-accesskey"><a href="#the-accesskey-attribute">accesskey</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>The exact shortcut is determined by the user agent, based on
  information about the user's keyboard, what keyboard shortcuts
  already exist on the platform, and what other shortcuts have been
  specified on the page, using the information provided in the <code title="attr-accesskey"><a href="#the-accesskey-attribute">accesskey</a></code> attribute as a guide.</p>

  <p>In order to ensure that a relevant keyboard shortcut is available
  on a wide variety of input devices, the author can provide a number
  of alternatives in the <code title="attr-accesskey"><a href="#the-accesskey-attribute">accesskey</a></code>
  attribute.</p>

  <p>Each alternative consists of a single character, such as a letter
  or digit.</p>

  <p>User agents can provide users with a list of the keyboard
  shortcuts, but authors are encouraged to do so also. The <code title="dom-accessKeyLabel"><a href="#dom-accesskeylabel">accessKeyLabel</a></code> IDL attribute
  returns a string representing the actual key combination assigned by
  the user agent.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In this example, an author has provided a button that can be
   invoked using a shortcut key. To support full keyboards, the author
   has provided "C" as a possible key. To support devices equipped
   only with numeric keypads, the author has provided "1" as another
   possibly key.</p>

   <pre>&lt;input type=button value=Collect onclick="collect()"
       <strong>accesskey="C 1"</strong> id=c&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>To tell the user what the shortcut key is, the author has 
   this script here opted to explicitly add the key combination to the
   button's label:</p>

   <pre>function addShortcutKeyLabel(button) {
<strong>  if (button.accessKeyLabel != '')
    button.value += ' (' + button.accessKeyLabel + ')';</strong>
}
addShortcutKeyLabel(document.getElementById('c'));</pre>

   <p>Browsers on different platforms will show different labels, even
   for the same key combination, based on the convention prevalent on
   that platform. For example, if the key combination is the Control
   key, the Shift key, and the letter C, a Windows browser might
   display "<samp>Ctrl+Shift+C</samp>", whereas a Mac browser might
   display "<samp>^⇧C</samp>", while an Emacs browser might
   just display "<samp>C-C</samp>". Similarly, if the key combination
   is the Alt key and the Escape key, Windows might use
   "<samp>Alt+Esc</samp>", Mac might use
   "<samp>⌥⎋</samp>", and an Emacs browser might use
   "<samp>M-ESC</samp>" or "<samp>ESC ESC</samp>".</p>

   <p>In general, therefore, it is unwise to attempt to parse the
   value returned from the <code title="dom-accessKeyLabel"><a href="#dom-accesskeylabel">accessKeyLabel</a></code> IDL attribute.</p>

  <p>All <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> may have the <code title="attr-accesskey"><a href="#the-accesskey-attribute">accesskey</a></code> content attribute set. The

  used by the user agent as a guide for creating a keyboard shortcut
  that activates or focuses the element.</p>

  <p>If specified, the value must be an <a href="#ordered-set-of-unique-space-separated-tokens">ordered set of unique
  space-separated tokens</a> that are <a href="#case-sensitive">case-sensitive</a>,
  each of which must be exactly one Unicode code point in length.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, a variety of links are given with

   more quickly navigate to the relevant pages:</p>

   <pre>&lt;nav&gt;

  &lt;a title="Consortium Activities" accesskey="A" href="/Consortium/activities"&gt;Activities&lt;/a&gt; |

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, the search field is given two possible
   access keys, "s" and "0" (in that order). A user agent on a device
   with a full keyboard might pick
   <kbd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd><a href="#the-s-element">S</a></kbd></kbd> as the
   shortcut key, while a user agent on a small device with just a
   numeric keypad might pick just the plain unadorned key
   <kbd><kbd>0</kbd></kbd>:</p>

   <pre>&lt;form action="/search"&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;Search: &lt;input type="search" name="q" accesskey="s 0"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
 &lt;input type="submit"&gt;

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, a button has possible access keys
   described. A script then tries to update the button's label to

   <p>On one user agent, the button's label might become

  <h4 id="best-practices-for-in-page-editors"><span class="secno">7.6.3 </span>Best practices for in-page editors</h4>

  <p>Authors are encouraged to set the 'white-space' property on <a href="#editing-host" title="editing host">editing
  hosts</a> and on markup that was originally created through these editing mechanisms to the
  value 'pre-wrap'. Default HTML whitespace handling is not well suited to WYSIWYG editing, and line
  wrapping will not work correctly in some corner cases if 'white-space' is left at its default
  value.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>As an example of problems that occur if the default 'normal' value is used instead, consider
   the case of the user typing "<kbd>yellow␣␣ball</kbd>", with two spaces (here
   represented by "␣") between the words. With the editing rules in place for the default
   value of 'white-space' ('normal'), the resulting markup will either consist of
   "<samp>yellow&amp;nbsp; ball</samp>" or "<samp>yellow &amp;nbsp;ball</samp>"; i.e.,
   there will be a non-breaking space between the two words in addition to the regular space. This
   is necessary because the 'normal' value for 'white-space' requires adjacent regular spaces to be
   collapsed together.</p>

   <p>In the former case, "<samp>yellow⍽</samp>" might wrap to the next line ("⍽"
   being used here to represent a non-breaking space) even though "<samp>yellow</samp>" alone might
   fit at the end of the line; in the latter case, "<samp>⍽ball</samp>", if wrapped to the
   start of the line, would have visible indentation from the non-breaking space.</p>

   <p>When 'white-space' is set to 'pre-wrap', however, the editing rules will instead simply put
   two regular spaces between the words, and should the two words be split at the end of a line, the
   spaces would be neatly removed from the rendering.</p>

   and that are <i title="concept-fe-mutable"><a href="#concept-fe-mutable">mutable</a></i> (i.e.
   that do not have the <code title="attr-input-readonly"><a href="#attr-input-readonly">readonly</a></code> attribute specified and
   that are not <a href="#concept-fe-disabled" title="concept-fe-disabled">disabled</a>).</li>

   <li>The <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> of <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements that do not have a
   <code title="attr-textarea-readonly"><a href="#attr-textarea-readonly">readonly</a></code> attribute and
   that are not <a href="#concept-fe-disabled" title="concept-fe-disabled">disabled</a>.</li>

   <li>Text in <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes that are
   children of <a href="#editing-host" title="editing host">editing hosts</a> or
   <a href="#editable">editable</a> elements.</li>

   <li>Text in attributes of <a href="#editable">editable</a> elements.</li>

  </ul>

  <p>For text that is part of a <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node, the element
  with which the text is associated is the element that is the
  immediate parent of the first character of the word, sentence, or
  other piece of text. For text in attributes, it is the attribute's
  element. For the values of <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> and
  <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements, it is the element itself.</p>

  <p>To determine if a word, sentence, or other piece of text in an
  applicable element (as defined above) is to have spelling- and
  grammar-checking enabled, the UA must use the following
  algorithm:</p>

  <ol>

   <!-- user override -->

   <li>If the user has disabled the checking for this text, then the
   checking is disabled.</li>

   <li>Otherwise, if the user has forced the checking for this text to
   always be enabled, then the checking is enabled.</li>

   <!-- content attribute: on, off -->

   <li>Otherwise, if the element with which the text is associated has
   a <code title="attr-spellcheck"><a href="#attr-spellcheck">spellcheck</a></code> content
   attribute, then: if that attribute is in the <i>true</i> state,
   then checking is enabled; otherwise, if that attribute is in the
   <i>false</i> state, then checking is disabled.</li>

   <!-- inherit, if there is one to inherit from -->

   <li>Otherwise, if there is an ancestor element with a <code title="attr-spellcheck"><a href="#attr-spellcheck">spellcheck</a></code> content attribute that is
   not in the <i>default</i> state, then: if the nearest such
   ancestor's <code title="attr-spellcheck"><a href="#attr-spellcheck">spellcheck</a></code> content
   attribute is in the <i>true</i> state, then checking is enabled;
   otherwise, checking is disabled.</li>

   <!-- default -->

   <li>Otherwise, if the element's <a href="#concept-spellcheck-default" title="concept-spellcheck-default">default behavior</a> is <a href="#concept-spellcheck-default-true" title="concept-spellcheck-default-true">true-by-default</a>,
   then checking is enabled.</li>

   <li>Otherwise, if the element's <a href="#concept-spellcheck-default" title="concept-spellcheck-default">default behavior</a> is <a href="#concept-spellcheck-default-false" title="concept-spellcheck-default-false">false-by-default</a>,
   then checking is disabled.</li>

   <!-- default inheritance -->

   <li>Otherwise, if the element's parent element has <em>its</em>
   checking enabled, then checking is enabled.</li>

   <li>Otherwise, checking is disabled.</li>

  </ol>

  <p>If the checking is enabled for a word/sentence/text, the user agent should indicate spelling
  and grammar errors in that text. User agents should take into account the other semantics given in
  the document when suggesting spelling and grammar corrections. User agents may use the language of
  the element to determine what spelling and grammar rules to use, or may use the user's preferred
  language settings. UAs should use <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element attributes such as <code title="attr-input-pattern"><a href="#attr-input-pattern">pattern</a></code> to ensure that the resulting value is valid, where
  possible.</p>

  <p>If checking is disabled, the user agent should not indicate spelling or grammar errors for that
  text.</p>

  <p>Even when checking is enabled, user agents may opt to not report spelling or grammar errors in
  text that the user agent deems the user has no interest in having checked (e.g. text that was
  already present when the page was loaded, or that the user did not type, or text in controls that
  the user has not focused, or in parts of e-mail addresses that the user agent is not confident were misspelt). The <dfn id="dom-forcespellcheck" title="dom-forceSpellCheck"><code>forceSpellCheck()</code></dfn> method, when invoked on an
  element, must override this behavior, forcing the user agent to consider all spelling and grammar
  errors in text in that element for which checking is enabled to be of interest to the user.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The element with ID "a" in the following example would be the
   one used to determine if the word "Hello" is checked for spelling
   errors. In this example, it would not be.</p>

   <pre>&lt;div contenteditable="true"&gt;
 &lt;span spellcheck="false" id="a"&gt;Hell&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;o!&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;</pre>

   <p>The element with ID "b" in the following example would have
   checking enabled (the leading space character in the attribute's
   value on the <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element causes the attribute to be
   ignored, so the ancestor's value is used instead, regardless of the
   default).</p>

   <pre class="bad">&lt;p spellcheck="true"&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;Name: &lt;input spellcheck=" false" id="b"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  </div>

  </div>

  <p class="note">This specification does not define the user
  interface for spelling and grammar checkers. A user agent could
  offer on-demand checking, could perform continuous checking while
  the checking is enabled, or could use other interfaces.</p>

<!-- v2: ideas for drag and drop:

     * being able to animate a drop target:

       > To implement this with simple interface I've proposed, events
       > should be handled either by existing elements (like list
       > items that compare their size and position of dragged element
       > to decide whether element should be dropped before or after)
       > or handled by container that would probably need to calculate
       > positions of it's children and create new element to show
       > drop target. Smooth Mac-like drag'n'drop can be implemented
       > by animating drop target's padding/margin. So that's quite a
       > bit of code that's going to be reinvented each time someone
       > implements reordering.

       <hyatt> :droptarget
       <hyatt> or something
       <hyatt> we don't support a pseudo-class for the drop target but that's a great idea
       <Hixie_> yeah, thinking about that too
       <Hixie_> :drop-target, :drop-target(above), :drop-target(below) and having ondragover be able to say "not on me, but next to me maybe"

       - some way to be able to match an element that is being dragged over.

       - some way to be able to animate an element as it goes into and out of   
         this state (CSS transitions?), e.g. to be able to animate something
         "getting out of the way" to let you drop an item between others.

       - as an extension to the previous feature, a way to distinguish being    
         dragged above or to the left of the drag target vs below or to the
         right of the drag target.

     * We should let drop targets communicate back to drag sources if
       they want to communicate. (e.g. expose Window, and thus
       postMessage(), on the dataTransfer object on drop.)
       Or maybe just use a MessagePort!

       We should let drag sources provide a set of options via a
       context menu when the drop happens. (So that, e.g., the source
       can know whether a capabilities URI that it is passing along is
       supposed to be read-write access or read-only access to the
       object being dragged.)

       We should let potential drop targets see the types (but not the
       contents!) of dragged data so they can establish if they care
       or not. (dataTransfer.hasType())

       Ack: Ben Laurie (@g)

     * Interop with native apps. In particular, we probably want to
       whitelist the list of types that a Web page can see, since
       otherwise we'll end up exposing things like the username (if a
       user drags a file from their desktop, the path is exposed on
       some OSes).

     * Alex Velkov suggests that drags to and from the same origin should be able to read the data
       even before the drop.

     Other things listed below:
      DND-v2: more native support: text/html from selections, etc
      DND-v3: add Blob support
      DND-v4: add structured clone support
      DND-v5: add promises (should be able to say "if you accept this

  <p>This section defines an event-based drag-and-drop mechanism.</p>

  <p>This specification does not define exactly what a
  <em>drag-and-drop operation</em> actually is.</p>

  <p>On a visual medium with a pointing device, a drag operation could
  be the default action of a <code title="event-mousedown">mousedown</code> event that is followed by a
  series of <code title="event-mousemove">mousemove</code> events, and
  the drop could be triggered by the mouse being released.</p>

  <p>When using an input modality other than a pointing device, users
  would probably have to explicitly indicate their intention to
  perform a drag-and-drop operation, stating what they wish to drag
  and where they wish to drop it, respectively.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <p>However it is implemented, drag-and-drop operations must have a
  starting point (e.g. where the mouse was clicked, or the start of
  the selection or element that was selected for the drag), may have
  any number of intermediate steps (elements that the mouse moves over
  during a drag, or elements that the user picks as possible drop
  points as he cycles through possibilities), and must either have an
  end point (the element above which the mouse button was released, or
  the element that was finally selected), or be canceled. The end
  point must be the last element selected as a possible drop point
  before the drop occurs (so if the operation is not canceled, there
  must be at least one element in the middle step).</p>

  </div>


  <h4 id="introduction-7"><span class="secno">7.7.1 </span>Introduction</h4>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>To make an element draggable is simple: give the element a <code title="attr-draggable"><a href="#the-draggable-attribute">draggable</a></code> attribute, and set an event
  listener for <code title="event-dragstart"><a href="#event-dragstart">dragstart</a></code> that
  stores the data being dragged.</p>

  <p>The event handler typically needs to check that it's not a text
  selection that is being dragged, and then needs to store data into
  the <code><a href="#datatransfer">DataTransfer</a></code> object and set the allowed effects
  (copy, move, link, or some combination).</p>

  <p>For example:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;What fruits do you like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol ondragstart="dragStartHandler(event)"&gt;
 &lt;li draggable="true" data-value="fruit-apple"&gt;Apples&lt;/li&gt;
 &lt;li draggable="true" data-value="fruit-orange"&gt;Oranges&lt;/li&gt;
 &lt;li draggable="true" data-value="fruit-pear"&gt;Pears&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
  var internalDNDType = 'text/x-example'; // set this to something specific to your site
  function dragStartHandler(event) {
    if (event.target instanceof HTMLLIElement) {
      // use the element's data-value="" attribute as the value to be moving:
      event.dataTransfer.setData(internalDNDType, event.target.dataset.value);
      event.dataTransfer.effectAllowed = 'move'; // only allow moves
    } else {
      event.preventDefault(); // don't allow selection to be dragged
    }
  }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  <hr>

  <p>To accept a drop, the drop target has to have a <code title="attr-dropzone"><a href="#the-dropzone-attribute">dropzone</a></code> attribute and listen to the
  <code title="drop-event">drop</code> event.</p>

  <p>The value of the <code title="attr-dropzone"><a href="#the-dropzone-attribute">dropzone</a></code>
  attribute specifies what kind of data to accept (e.g. "<code title="">string:text/plain</code>" to accept any text strings, or
  "<code>file:image/png</code>" to accept a PNG image file) and what
  kind of feedback to give (e.g. "<code>move</code>" to indicate that
  the data will be moved).</p>

  <p class="note">Instead of using the <code title="attr-dropzone"><a href="#the-dropzone-attribute">dropzone</a></code> attribute, a drop target can
  handle the <code title="event-dragenter"><a href="#event-dragenter">dragenter</a></code> event (to
  report whether or not the drop target is to accept the drop) and the
  <code title="event-dragover"><a href="#event-dragover">dragover</a></code> event (to specify what
  feedback is to be shown to the user).</p>

  <p>The <code title="event-drop"><a href="#event-drop">drop</a></code> event allows the actual
  drop to be performed. This event needs to be canceled, so that the
  <code title="dom-DataTransfer-DropEffect"><a href="#dom-datatransfer-dropeffect">dropEffect</a></code>
  attribute's value can be used by the source (otherwise it's
  reset).</p>

  <p>For example:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;Drop your favorite fruits below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol dropzone="move string:text/x-example" ondrop="dropHandler(event)"&gt;
 &lt;!-- don't forget to change the "text/x-example" type to something
 specific to your site --&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
  var internalDNDType = 'text/x-example'; // set this to something specific to your site
  function dropHandler(event) {
    var li = document.createElement('li');
    var data = event.dataTransfer.getData(internalDNDType);
    if (data == 'fruit-apple') {
      li.textContent = 'Apples';
    } else if (data == 'fruit-orange') {
      li.textContent = 'Oranges';
    } else if (data == 'fruit-pear') {
      li.textContent = 'Pears';
    } else {
      li.textContent = 'Unknown Fruit';
    }
    event.target.appendChild(li);
  }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  <hr>

  <p>To remove the original element (the one that was dragged) from
  the display, the <code title="event-dragend"><a href="#event-dragend">dragend</a></code> event
  can be used.</p>

  <p>For our example here, that means updating the original markup to
  handle that event:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;What fruits do you like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol ondragstart="dragStartHandler(event)" ondragend="dragEndHandler(event)"&gt;
 <em>...as before...</em>
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
  function dragStartHandler(event) {
    // <em>...as before...</em>
  }
  function dragEndHandler(event) {
    // remove the dragged element
    event.target.parentNode.removeChild(event.target);
  }
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

    that the user originally clicked). If the user did not specify a particular node, for example if

    <p>Otherwise, if it is an element that is being dragged, then the <a href="#source-node">source node</a> is

  <p>From the moment that the user agent is to <dfn id="initiate-the-drag-and-drop-operation">initiate the drag-and-drop operation</dfn>,
  until the end of the drag-and-drop operation, device input events (e.g. mouse and keyboard events)
  must be suppressed.</p>

  <p>During the drag operation, the element directly indicated by the user as the drop target is
  called the <dfn id="immediate-user-selection">immediate user selection</dfn>. (Only elements can be selected by the user; other
  nodes must not be made available as drop targets.) However, the <a href="#immediate-user-selection">immediate user
  selection</a> is not necessarily the <dfn id="current-target-element">current target element</dfn>, which is the element
  currently selected for the drop part of the drag-and-drop operation.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#immediate-user-selection">immediate user selection</a> changes as the user selects different elements
  (either by pointing at them with a pointing device, or by selecting them in some other way). The
  <a href="#current-target-element">current target element</a> changes when the <a href="#immediate-user-selection">immediate user selection</a>
  changes, based on the results of event listeners in the document, as described below.</p>

  <p>Both the <a href="#current-target-element">current target element</a> and the <a href="#immediate-user-selection">immediate user selection</a> can
  be null, which means no target element is selected. They can also both be elements in other
  (DOM-based) documents, or other (non-Web) programs altogether. (For example, a user could drag
  text to a word-processor.) The <a href="#current-target-element">current target element</a> is initially null.</p>

  <p>In addition, there is also a <dfn id="current-drag-operation">current drag operation</dfn>, which can take on the values
  "<code title="">none</code>", "<code title="">copy</code>", "<code title="">link</code>", and
  "<code title="">move</code>". Initially, it has the value "<code title="">none</code>". It is
  updated by the user agent as described in the steps below.</p>

  <p>User agents must, as soon as the drag operation is <a href="#initiate-the-drag-and-drop-operation" title="initiate the drag-and-drop

  <ol>

   <li>

    <p>If the user agent is still performing the previous iteration of the sequence (if any) when

  <h4 id="the-draggable-attribute"><span class="secno">7.7.7 </span>The <dfn title="attr-draggable"><code>draggable</code></dfn> attribute</h4>

  <p>All <a href="#html-elements">HTML elements</a> may have the <code title="attr-draggable"><a href="#the-draggable-attribute">draggable</a></code> content attribute set. The
  <code title="attr-draggable"><a href="#the-draggable-attribute">draggable</a></code> attribute is an
  <a href="#enumerated-attribute">enumerated attribute</a>. It has three states. The first
  state is <i>true</i> and it has the keyword <code title="">true</code>. The second state is <i>false</i> and it has
  the keyword <code title="">false</code>. The third state is
  <i>auto</i>; it has no keywords but it is the <i>missing value
  default</i>.</p>

  <p>The <i>true</i> state means the element is draggable; the
  <i>false</i> state means that it is not. The <i>auto</i> state
  uses the default behavior of the user agent.</p>

  <p>An element with a <code title="attr-draggable"><a href="#the-draggable-attribute">draggable</a></code>
  attribute should also have a <code title="attr-title"><a href="#attr-title">title</a></code>
  attribute that names the element for the purpose of non-visual
  interactions. <!-- "should", not "must", only because this is a
  relatively new attribute and its design implications are not
  entirely obvious yet. For example, what happens if you use an
  element with text as a drag source? Is that sufficiently clear for
  ATs? Indeed, shouldn't the element generally be distinguishable
  anyway for it to be useful to drag? See also the dropzone attribute.

  <h4>Copy and paste</h4>

  <p>Copy-and-paste is a form of drag-and-drop: the "copy" part is
  equivalent to dragging content to another application (the
  "clipboard"), and the "paste" part is equivalent to dragging content
  <em>from</em> another application.</p>

  <p>Select-and-paste (a model used by mouse operations in the X
  Window System) is equivalent to a drag-and-drop operation where the
  source is the selection.</p>


  <div class="impl">

  <h5>Copy to clipboard</h5>

  <p>When the user invokes a copy operation, the user agent must act
  as if the user had invoked a drag on the current selection. If the
  drag-and-drop operation initiates, then the user agent must act as
  if the user had indicated (as the <span>immediate user
  selection</span>) a hypothetical application representing the
  clipboard. Then, the user agent must act as if the user had ended
  the drag-and-drop operation without canceling it. If the
  drag-and-drop operation didn't get canceled, the user agent should
  then follow the relevant platform-specific conventions for copy
  operations (e.g. updating the clipboard).</p>

  <p>The events involved in this process are the <code
  title="event-dragstart">dragstart</code>, <code
  title="event-drag">drag</code>, and <code
  title="event-dragend">dragend</code> events.</p>


  <h5>Cut to clipboard</h5>

  <p>When the user invokes a cut operation, the user agent must act as
  if the user had invoked a copy operation (see the previous section),
  followed, if the copy was completed successfully, by <a
  href="#contenteditable-delete">a selection delete operation</a>.</p>

  <p>The events involved in this process are the <code
  title="event-dragstart">dragstart</code>, <code
  title="event-drag">drag</code>, and <code
  title="event-dragend">dragend</code> events.</p>


  <h5>Paste from clipboard</h5>

  <p>When the user invokes a clipboard paste operation, the user agent
  must act as if the user had invoked a drag on a hypothetical
  application representing the clipboard, setting the data associated
  with the drag as the content on the clipboard (in whatever formats
  are available).</p>

  <p>Then, the user agent must act as if the user had indicated (as
  the <span>immediate user selection</span>) the element with the
  keyboard focus, and then ended the drag-and-drop operation without
  canceling it.</p>

  <p>The events involved in this process are the <code
  title="event-dragenter">dragenter</code>, <code
  title="event-dragover">dragover</code>, <code
  title="event-dragexit">dragexit</code>, <code
  title="event-dragleave">dragleave</code>, and <code
  title="event-drop">drop</code> events.</p>


  <h5>Paste from selection</h5>

  <p>When the user invokes a selection paste operation, the user agent
  must act as if the user had invoked a drag on the current selection,
  then indicated (as the <span>immediate user selection</span>) the
  element with the keyboard focus, and then ended the drag-and-drop
  operation without canceling it.</p>

  <p>All the drag-and-drop events can be involved in this process.</p>

  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="security-risks-in-the-drag-and-drop-model"><span class="secno">7.7.9 </span>Security risks in the drag-and-drop model</h4>

  <p>User agents must not make the data added to the <code><a href="#datatransfer">DataTransfer</a></code> object during the
  <code title="event-dragstart"><a href="#event-dragstart">dragstart</a></code> event available to scripts until the <code title="event-drop"><a href="#event-drop">drop</a></code> event, because otherwise, if a user were to drag sensitive
  information from one document to a second document, crossing a hostile third document in the
  process, the hostile document could intercept the data.</p>

  <p>For the same reason, user agents must consider a drop to be successful only if the user
  specifically ended the drag operation — if any scripts end the drag operation, it must be
  considered unsuccessful (canceled) and the <code title="event-drop"><a href="#event-drop">drop</a></code> event must not be
  fired.</p>

  <p>User agents should take care to not start drag-and-drop operations in response to script
  actions. For example, in a mouse-and-window environment, if a script moves a window while the user
  has his mouse button depressed, the UA would not consider that to start a drag. This is important
  because otherwise UAs could cause data to be dragged from sensitive sources and dropped into
  hostile documents without the user's consent.</p>

  <p>User agents should filter potentially active (scripted) content (e.g. HTML) when it is dragged
  and when it is dropped, using a whitelist of known-safe features. Similarly, <a href="#relative-url" title="relative
  URL">relative URLs</a> should be turned into absolute URLs to avoid references changing in
  unexpected ways. This specification does not specify how this is performed.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider a hostile page providing some content and getting the user to select and drag and
   drop (or indeed, copy and paste) that content to a victim page's <code title="attr-contenteditable"><a href="#attr-contenteditable">contenteditable</a></code> region. If the browser does not ensure that
   only safe content is dragged, potentially unsafe content such as scripts and event handlers in
   the selection, once dropped (or pasted) into the victim site, get the privileges of the victim
   site. This would thus enable a cross-site scripting attack.</p>

  <p>The various types of content mentioned above are described in the next few sections.</p>

  <p>In addition, there are some restrictions on how <a href="#character-encoding-declaration" title="character encoding

  <div class="note">

   <p>Space characters before the root <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code> element, and space characters at the start
   of the <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code> element and before the <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element, will be dropped when

   be parsed as if they were at the end of the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code> element. Thus, space characters
   around the root element do not round-trip.</p>

   <p>It is suggested that newlines be inserted after the DOCTYPE, after any comments that are

  <p>Attributes can be specified in four different ways:</p>

  <dl>

   <dd>

    <p>Just the <a href="#syntax-attribute-name" title="syntax-attribute-name">attribute name</a>. The value is implicitly

         attacker.

         Posit a site that allows the user to input text that is used verbatim in two attributes,
         such that the user can set the first attribute's value to:

         second one with double quotes:

            <body title=` class="` onload='...payload...' end=x">

         In IE, this is treated as:

            <body title=' class="'

  <p>A <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element must not contain <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> elements, even though these
  elements are technically allowed inside <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> elements according to the content
  models described in this specification. (If a <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> element is put inside a
  <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> in the markup, it will in fact imply a <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code> start tag before
  it.)</p>

  <p>A single <a href="#syntax-newlines" title="syntax-newlines">newline</a> may be placed immediately after the <a href="#syntax-start-tag" title="syntax-start-tag">start tag</a> of <code><a href="#the-pre-element">pre</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-textarea-element">textarea</a></code> elements.
  This does not affect the processing of the element. The otherwise optional <a href="#syntax-newlines" title="syntax-newlines">newline</a> <em>must</em> be included if the element's contents
  themselves start with a <a href="#syntax-newlines" title="syntax-newlines">newline</a> (because otherwise the

  <h3 id="parsing"><span class="secno">8.2 </span>Parsing HTML documents</h3>

  <p><i>This section only applies to user agents, data mining tools, and conformance
  checkers.</i></p>

  <p class="note">The rules for parsing XML documents into DOM trees are covered by the next
  section, entitled "<a href="#the-xhtml-syntax">The XHTML syntax</a>".</p>

  <p>User agents must use the parsing rules described in this section to generate the DOM trees from
  <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code> resources. Together, these rules define what is referred to as the
  <dfn id="html-parser">HTML parser</dfn>.</p>

  <div class="note">

   <p>While the HTML syntax described in this specification bears a close resemblance to SGML and
   XML, it is a separate language with its own parsing rules.</p>

   <p>Some earlier versions of HTML (in particular from HTML2 to HTML4) were based on SGML and used
   SGML parsing rules. However, few (if any) web browsers ever implemented true SGML parsing for
   HTML documents; the only user agents to strictly handle HTML as an SGML application have
   historically been validators. The resulting confusion — with validators claiming documents
   to have one representation while widely deployed Web browsers interoperably implemented a
   different representation — has wasted decades of productivity. This version of HTML thus
   returns to a non-SGML basis.</p>

   <p>Authors interested in using SGML tools in their authoring pipeline are encouraged to use XML
   tools and the XML serialization of HTML.</p>

  </div>

  <p>This specification defines the parsing rules for HTML documents, whether they are syntactically
  correct or not. Certain points in the parsing algorithm are said to be <dfn id="parse-error" title="parse
  error">parse errors</dfn>. The error handling for parse errors is well-defined (that's the
  processing rules described throughout this specification), but user agents, while parsing an HTML
  document, may <a href="#abort-a-parser" title="abort a parser">abort the parser</a> at the first <a href="#parse-error">parse
  error</a> that they encounter for which they do not wish to apply the rules described in this
  specification.</p>

  <p>Conformance checkers must report at least one parse error condition to the user if one or more
  parse error conditions exist in the document and must not report parse error conditions if none
  exist in the document. Conformance checkers may report more than one parse error condition if more
  than one parse error condition exists in the document.</p>

  <p class="note">Parse errors are only errors with the <em>syntax</em> of HTML. In addition to
  checking for parse errors, conformance checkers will also verify that the document obeys all the
  other conformance requirements described in this specification.</p>

  <p>For the purposes of conformance checkers, if a resource is determined to be in <a href="#syntax">the HTML
  syntax</a>, then it is an <a href="#html-documents" title="HTML documents">HTML document</a>.</p>

  </div>


  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="overview-of-the-parsing-model"><span class="secno">8.2.1 </span>Overview of the parsing model</h4>

  <p class="overview"><object data="images/parsing-model-overview.svg" height="535" width="345"><img alt="" height="450" src="images/parsing-model-overview.png" width="345"></object></p>

  <p>The input to the HTML parsing process consists of a stream of <a href="#unicode-code-point" title="Unicode code
  point">Unicode code points</a>, which is passed through a <a href="#tokenization">tokenization</a> stage
  followed by a <a href="#tree-construction">tree construction</a> stage. The output is a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>
  object.</p>

  <p class="note">Implementations that <a href="#non-scripted">do not support scripting</a> do not
  have to actually create a DOM <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object, but the DOM tree in such cases is
  still used as the model for the rest of the specification.</p>

  <p>In the common case, the data handled by the tokenization stage comes from the network, but
  <a href="#dynamic-markup-insertion" title="dynamic markup insertion">it can also come from script</a> running in the user
  agent, e.g. using the <code title="dom-document-write"><a href="#dom-document-write">document.write()</a></code> API.</p>

  <p id="nestedParsing">There is only one set of states for the tokenizer stage and the tree
  construction stage, but the tree construction stage is reentrant, meaning that while the tree
  construction stage is handling one token, the tokenizer might be resumed, causing further tokens
  to be emitted and processed before the first token's processing is complete.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>In the following example, the tree construction stage will be called upon to handle a "p"
   start tag token while handling the "script" end tag token:</p>

   <pre>...
&lt;script&gt;
 document.write('&lt;p&gt;');
&lt;/script&gt;
...</pre>

  </div>

  <p>To handle these cases, parsers have a <dfn id="script-nesting-level">script nesting level</dfn>, which must be initially
  set to zero, and a <dfn id="parser-pause-flag">parser pause flag</dfn>, which must be initially set to false.</p>

  </div>



  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="the-input-byte-stream"><span class="secno">8.2.2 </span>The <dfn>input byte stream</dfn></h4>

  <p>The stream of Unicode code points that comprises the input to the tokenization stage will be
  initially seen by the user agent as a stream of bytes (typically coming over the network or from
  the local file system). The bytes encode the actual characters according to a particular
  <i>character encoding</i>, which the user agent uses to decode the bytes into characters.</p>

  <p class="note">For XML documents, the algorithm user agents must use to determine the character
  encoding is given by the XML specification. This section does not apply to XML documents. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></p>

  <p>Usually, the <a href="#encoding-sniffing-algorithm">encoding sniffing algorithm</a> defined below is used to determine the
  character encoding.</p>

  <p>Given a character encoding, the bytes in the <a href="#the-input-byte-stream">input byte stream</a> must be converted
  to Unicode code points for the tokenizer's <a href="#input-stream">input stream</a>, as described by the rules
  for that encoding's <a href="#decoder">decoder</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">Bytes or sequences of bytes in the original byte stream that did not conform to
  the encoding specification (e.g. invalid UTF-8 byte sequences in a UTF-8 input byte stream) are
  errors that conformance checkers are expected to report.</p>

  <p class="note">Leading Byte Order Marks (BOMs) are not stripped by the decoder algorithms, they
  are stripped by the algorithm below.</p>

  <p class="warning">The decoder algorithms describe how to handle invalid input; for security
  reasons, it is imperative that those rules be followed precisely. Differences in how invalid byte
  sequences are handled can result in, amongst other problems, script injection vulnerabilities
  ("XSS").</p>

  <p>When the HTML parser is decoding an input byte stream, it uses a character encoding and a <dfn id="concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</dfn>. The confidence is either <i>tentative</i>,
  <i>certain</i>, or <i>irrelevant</i>. The encoding used, and whether the confidence in that
  encoding is <i>tentative</i> or <i>certain</i>, is <a href="#meta-charset-during-parse">used
  during the parsing</a> to determine whether to <a href="#change-the-encoding">change the encoding</a>. If no encoding is
  necessary, e.g. because the parser is operating on a Unicode stream and doesn't have to use a
  character encoding at all, then the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> is
  <i>irrelevant</i>.</p>

  <p class="note">Some algorithms feed the parser by directly adding characters to the <a href="#input-stream">input
  stream</a> rather than adding bytes to the <a href="#the-input-byte-stream">input byte stream</a>.</p>


  <h5 id="parsing-with-a-known-character-encoding"><span class="secno">8.2.2.1 </span>Parsing with a known character encoding</h5>

  <p>When the HTML parser is to operate on an input byte stream that has <dfn id="a-known-definite-encoding">a known definite
  encoding</dfn>, then the character encoding is that encoding and the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> is <i>certain</i>.</p>


  <h5 id="determining-the-character-encoding"><span class="secno">8.2.2.2 </span>Determining the character encoding</h5>

  <p>In some cases, it might be impractical to unambiguously determine the encoding before parsing
  the document. Because of this, this specification provides for a two-pass mechanism with an
  optional pre-scan. Implementations are allowed, as described below, to apply a simplified parsing
  algorithm to whatever bytes they have available before beginning to parse the document. Then, the
  real parser is started, using a tentative encoding derived from this pre-parse and other
  out-of-band metadata. If, while the document is being loaded, the user agent discovers a character
  encoding declaration that conflicts with this information, then the parser can get reinvoked to
  perform a parse of the document with the real encoding.</p>

  <p id="documentEncoding">User agents must use the following algorithm, called the <dfn id="encoding-sniffing-algorithm">encoding
  sniffing algorithm</dfn>, to determine the character encoding to use when decoding a document in
  the first pass. This algorithm takes as input any out-of-band metadata available to the user agent
  (e.g. the <a href="#content-type" title="Content-Type">Content-Type metadata</a> of the document) and all the
  bytes available so far, and returns a character encoding and a <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> that is either <i>tentative</i> or
  <i>certain</i>.</p>

  <ol>

   <li>

    <p>If the user has explicitly instructed the user agent to override the document's character
    encoding with a specific encoding, optionally return that encoding with the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> <i>certain</i> and abort these steps.</p>

    <p class="note">Typically, user agents remember such user requests across sessions, and in some
    cases apply them to documents in <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code>s as well.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p>The user agent may wait for more bytes of the resource to be available, either in this step
    or at any later step in this algorithm. For instance, a user agent might wait 500ms or 1024
    bytes, whichever came first. In general preparsing the source to find the encoding improves
    performance, as it reduces the need to throw away the data structures used when parsing upon
    finding the encoding information. However, if the user agent delays too long to obtain data to
    determine the encoding, then the cost of the delay could outweigh any performance improvements
    from the preparse.</p>

    <p class="note">The authoring conformance requirements for character encoding declarations limit
    them to only appearing <a href="#charset1024">in the first 1024 bytes</a>. User agents are
    therefore encouraged to use the prescan algorithm below (as invoked by these steps) on the first
    1024 bytes, but not to stall beyond that.</p>

    <p class="note">The UTF-8 encoding has a highly detectable bit pattern. Documents that contain

          - ISO-8859-1 and Windows-1252 are the same (supported by encoding.spec.whatwg.org)
          - ISO-8859-9 and Windows-1254 are the same (supported by encoding.spec.whatwg.org)
          - Windows-31J and Shift_JIS are the same (supported by encoding.spec.whatwg.org)
          - Windows-932 is close enough to Shift_JIS to be treated as equivalent (supported by wikipedia)
          - Windows-936 is a basically a subset of GBK which is basically a subset of GB18030 (supported by wikipedia)
          - Windows-950 is basically the same as Big5 (supported by wikipedia)
          - Firefox's UTF-8 defaults are all bogus

  <p class="note">This specification does not make any attempt to support EBCDIC-based encodings and

  <h5 id="changing-the-encoding-while-parsing"><span class="secno">8.2.2.4 </span>Changing the encoding while parsing</h5>

  <p>When the parser requires the user agent to <dfn id="change-the-encoding">change the encoding</dfn>, it must run the
  following steps. This might happen if the <a href="#encoding-sniffing-algorithm">encoding sniffing algorithm</a> described above
  failed to find a character encoding, or if it found a character encoding that was not the actual
  encoding of the file.</p>

  <ol>

   <li>If the encoding that is already being used to interpret the
   input stream is <a href="#a-utf-16-encoding">a UTF-16 encoding</a>, then set the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> to
   <i>certain</i> and abort these steps. The new encoding is ignored;
   if it was anything but the same encoding, then it would be clearly
   incorrect.</li>

   <li>If the new encoding is <a href="#a-utf-16-encoding">a UTF-16 encoding</a>, change
   it to UTF-8.</li>

   <li>If the new encoding is identical or equivalent to the encoding
   that is already being used to interpret the input stream, then set
   the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> to
   <i>certain</i> and abort these steps. This happens when the
   encoding information found in the file matches what the
   <a href="#encoding-sniffing-algorithm">encoding sniffing algorithm</a> determined to be the
   encoding, and in the second pass through the parser if the first
   pass found that the encoding sniffing algorithm described in the
   earlier section failed to find the right encoding.</li>

   <li>If all the bytes up to the last byte converted by the current
   decoder have the same Unicode interpretations in both the current
   encoding and the new encoding, and if the user agent supports
   changing the converter on the fly, then the user agent may change
   to the new converter for the encoding on the fly. Set the
   <a href="#document's-character-encoding">document's character encoding</a> and the encoding used to
   convert the input stream to the new encoding, set the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> to
   <i>certain</i>, and abort these steps.</li>

   <li>Otherwise, <a href="#navigate">navigate</a><!--DONAV reparse--> to the

   the same <a href="#source-browsing-context">source browsing context</a>, but this time skip
   the <a href="#encoding-sniffing-algorithm">encoding sniffing algorithm</a> and instead just set
   the encoding to the new encoding and the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> to
   <i>certain</i>. Whenever possible, this should be done without
   actually contacting the network layer (the bytes should be
   re-parsed from memory), even if, e.g., the document is marked as
   not being cacheable. If this is not possible and contacting the
   network layer would involve repeating a request that uses a method
   other than HTTP GET (<a href="#concept-http-equivalent-get" title="concept-http-equivalent-get">or
   equivalent</a> for non-HTTP URLs), then instead set the <a href="#concept-encoding-confidence" title="concept-encoding-confidence">confidence</a> to

  <p>Several of these modes, namely "<a href="#parsing-main-inhead" title="insertion mode: in

  <p>Similarly, to parse nested <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> elements, a <dfn id="stack-of-template-insertion-modes">stack of template insertion

  <p>Initially, the <dfn id="stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</dfn> is empty. The stack grows downwards; the
  topmost node on the stack is the first one added to the stack, and the bottommost node of the
  stack is the most recently added node in the stack (notwithstanding when the stack is manipulated
  in a random access fashion as part of <a href="#adoptionAgency">the handling for misnested

  <p class="note">The "<a href="#the-before-html-insertion-mode" title="insertion mode: before html">before html</a>" <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion

  <p class="note">In the <a href="#fragment-case">fragment case</a>, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> is

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code> node, however it is created, is the topmost node of the stack. It only

  <h5 id="the-list-of-active-formatting-elements"><span class="secno">8.2.3.3 </span>The list of active formatting elements</h5>

  <p>Initially, the <dfn id="list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting elements</dfn> is
  empty. It is used to handle mis-nested <a href="#formatting" title="formatting">formatting element tags</a>.</p>

  <p>The list contains elements in the <a href="#formatting">formatting</a>
  category, and scope markers. The scope markers are inserted when
  entering <code><a href="#the-applet-element">applet</a></code> elements, buttons, <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code>
  elements, marquees, table cells, and table captions, and are used to
  prevent formatting from "leaking" <em>into</em> <code><a href="#the-applet-element">applet</a></code>
  elements, buttons, <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> elements, marquees, and
  tables.</p>

  <p class="note">The scope markers are unrelated to the concept of an
  element being <a href="#has-an-element-in-scope" title="has an element in scope">in
  scope</a>.</p>

  <p>In addition, each element in the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting
  elements</a> is associated with the token for which it was
  created, so that further elements can be created for that token if
  necessary.</p>

  <p>When the steps below require the UA to <dfn id="push-onto-the-list-of-active-formatting-elements">push onto the list of
  active formatting elements</dfn> an element <var title="">element</var>, the UA must perform the following steps:</p>

  <ol>

   <li><p>If there are already three elements in the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of
   active formatting elements</a> after the last list marker, if
   any, or anywhere in the list if there are no list markers, that
   have the same tag name, namespace, and attributes as <var title="">element</var>, then remove the earliest such element from
   the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting elements</a>. For these
   purposes, the attributes must be compared as they were when the
   elements were created by the parser; two elements have the same
   attributes if all their parsed attributes can be paired such that
   the two attributes in each pair have identical names, namespaces,
   and values (the order of the attributes does not matter).</p>

   <p class="note">This is the Noah's Ark clause. But with three per
   family instead of two.</p></li> <!-- A sort of polyamorous Noah's

  <p class="note">The way this specification is written, the

   <li>If <var title="">entry</var> was a marker, then stop the

  <p>Once a <code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code> element has been parsed (whether
  implicitly or explicitly) the <a href="#head-element-pointer"><code title="">head</code>
  element pointer</a> gets set to point to this node.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#form-element-pointer"><code title="">form</code> element pointer</a>
  points to the last <code><a href="#the-form-element">form</a></code> element that was opened and
  whose end tag has not yet been seen. It is used to make form

  markup, for historical reasons.</p>

  don't execute in that case.</p>

  <p>The <dfn id="frameset-ok-flag">frameset-ok flag</dfn> is set to "ok" when the parser is

  <h4 id="tokenization"><span class="secno">8.2.4 </span><dfn>Tokenization</dfn></h4>

  <p>Implementations must act as if they used the following state
  machine to tokenize HTML. The state machine must start in the
  <a href="#data-state">data state</a>. Most states consume a single character,
  which may have various side-effects, and either switches the state
  machine to a new state to <i>reconsume</i> the same character, or
  switches it to a new state to consume the next character, or stays
  in the same state to consume the next character. Some states have
  more complicated behavior and can consume several characters before
  switching to another state. In some cases, the tokenizer state is
  also changed by the tree construction stage.</p>

  <p>The exact behavior of certain states depends on the
  <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> and the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open
  elements</a>. Certain states also use a <dfn id="temporary-buffer"><var>temporary
  buffer</var></dfn> to track progress.</p>

  <p>The output of the tokenization step is a series of zero or more
  of the following tokens: DOCTYPE, start tag, end tag, comment,
  character, end-of-file. DOCTYPE tokens have a name, a public
  identifier, a system identifier, and a <i>force-quirks
  flag</i>. When a DOCTYPE token is created, its name, public
  identifier, and system identifier must be marked as missing (which
  is a distinct state from the empty string), and the <i>force-quirks
  flag</i> must be set to <i>off</i> (its other state is
  <i>on</i>). Start and end tag tokens have a tag name, a
  <i>self-closing flag</i>, and a list of attributes, each of which
  has a name and a value. When a start or end tag token is created,
  its <i>self-closing flag</i> must be unset (its other state is that
  it be set), and its attributes list must be empty. Comment and
  character tokens have data.</p>

  <p>When a token is emitted, it must immediately be handled by the
  <a href="#tree-construction">tree construction</a> stage. The tree construction stage
  can affect the state of the tokenization stage, and can insert
  additional characters into the stream. (For example, the
  <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element can result in scripts executing and
  using the <a href="#dynamic-markup-insertion">dynamic markup insertion</a> APIs to insert
  characters into the stream being tokenized.)</p>

  <p>When a start tag token is emitted with its <i>self-closing
  flag</i> set, if the flag is not <dfn id="acknowledge-self-closing-flag" title="acknowledge
  self-closing flag">acknowledged</dfn> when it is processed by the
  tree construction stage, that is a <a href="#parse-error">parse error</a>.</p>

  <p>When an end tag token is emitted with attributes, that is a
  <a href="#parse-error">parse error</a>.</p>

  <p>When an end tag token is emitted with its <i>self-closing
  flag</i> set, that is a <a href="#parse-error">parse error</a>.</p>

  <p>An <dfn id="appropriate-end-tag-token">appropriate end tag token</dfn> is an end tag token whose
  tag name matches the tag name of the last start tag to have been
  emitted from this tokenizer, if any. If no start tag has been
  emitted from this tokenizer, then no end tag token is
  appropriate.</p>

  <p>Before each step of the tokenizer, the user agent must first
  check the <a href="#parser-pause-flag">parser pause flag</a>. If it is true, then the
  tokenizer must abort the processing of any nested invocations of the
  tokenizer, yielding control back to the caller.</p>

  <p>The tokenizer state machine consists of the states defined in the
  following subsections.</p>

  <ol>

   <li>

    <p>Create a node implementing the interface appropriate for the element type corresponding to
    the tag name of the token in <var title="">given namespace</var> (as given in the specification
    that defines that element, e.g. for an <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element in the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML

    interface), with the tag name being the name of that element, with the node being in the given
    namespace, and with the attributes on the node being those given in the given token.</p>

    <p>The interface appropriate for an element in the <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a> that is not
    defined in this specification (or <a href="#other-applicable-specifications">other applicable specifications</a>) is
    <code><a href="#htmlunknownelement">HTMLUnknownElement</a></code>. Elements in other namespaces whose interface is not defined by

    must be the same as that of the <var title="">intended parent</var>.</p>

   </li>

   <li><p>If the newly created element has an <code title="">xmlns</code> attribute <em>in the
   <a href="#xmlns-namespace">XMLNS namespace</a></em> whose value is not exactly the same as the element's namespace,
   that is a <a href="#parse-error">parse error</a>. Similarly, if the newly created element has an <code title="">xmlns:xlink</code> attribute in the <a href="#xmlns-namespace">XMLNS namespace</a> whose value is not the

   <li><p>If the newly created element is a <a href="#category-reset" title="category-reset">resettable element</a>,
   invoke its <a href="#concept-form-reset-control" title="concept-form-reset-control">reset algorithm</a>. (This initializes the
   element's <a href="#concept-fe-value" title="concept-fe-value">value</a> and <a href="#concept-fe-checked" title="concept-fe-checked">checkedness</a> based on the element's attributes.)</p></li>

   <a href="#category-form-attr" title="category-form-attr">reassociateable</a> or doesn't have a <code title="attr-fae-form"><a href="#attr-fae-form">form</a></code> attribute, <a href="#concept-form-association" title="concept-form-association">associate</a> the newly created element with the

  <h4 id="coercing-an-html-dom-into-an-infoset"><span class="secno">8.2.7 </span>Coercing an HTML DOM into an infoset</h4>

  <p>When an application uses an <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a> in
  conjunction with an XML pipeline, it is possible that the
  constructed DOM is not compatible with the XML tool chain in certain
  subtle ways. For example, an XML toolchain might not be able to
  represent attributes with the name <code title="">xmlns</code>,
  since they conflict with the Namespaces in XML syntax. There is also
  some data that the <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a> generates that isn't
  included in the DOM itself. This section specifies some rules for
  handling these issues.</p>

  <p>If the XML API being used doesn't support DOCTYPEs, the tool may
  drop DOCTYPEs altogether.</p>

  <p>If the XML API doesn't support attributes in no namespace that
  are named "<code title="">xmlns</code>", attributes whose names
  start with "<code title="">xmlns:</code>", or attributes in the
  <a href="#xmlns-namespace">XMLNS namespace</a>, then the tool may drop such
  attributes.</p>

  <p>The tool may annotate the output with any namespace declarations
  required for proper operation.</p>

  <p>If the XML API being used restricts the allowable characters in
  the local names of elements and attributes, then the tool may map
  all element and attribute local names that the API wouldn't support
  to a set of names that <em>are</em> allowed, by replacing any
  character that isn't supported with the uppercase letter U and the
  six digits of the character's Unicode code point when expressed in
  hexadecimal, using digits 0-9 and capital letters A-F as the
  symbols, in increasing numeric order.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, the element name <code title="">foo&lt;bar</code>, which can be output by the <a href="#html-parser">HTML
  parser</a>, though it is neither a legal HTML element name nor a
  well-formed XML element name, would be converted into <code title="">fooU00003Cbar</code>, which <em>is</em> a well-formed XML
  element name (though it's still not legal in HTML by any means).</p>

  <p class="example">As another example, consider the attribute
  <code>xlink:href</code>. Used on a MathML element, it becomes, after
  being <a href="#adjust-foreign-attributes" title="adjust foreign attributes">adjusted</a>, an
  attribute with a prefix "<code title="">xlink</code>" and a local
  name "<code title="">href</code>". However, used on an HTML element,
  it becomes an attribute with no prefix and the local name "<code title="">xlink:href</code>", which is not a valid NCName, and thus
  might not be accepted by an XML API. It could thus get converted,
  becoming "<code title="">xlinkU00003Ahref</code>".</p>

  <p class="note">The resulting names from this conversion
  conveniently can't clash with any attribute generated by the
  <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a>, since those are all either lowercase or
  those listed in the <a href="#adjust-foreign-attributes">adjust foreign attributes</a>
  algorithm's table.</p>

  <p>If the XML API restricts comments from having two consecutive
  "--" (U+002D) characters, the tool may insert a single
  U+0020 SPACE character between any such offending characters.</p>

  <p>If the XML API restricts comments from ending in a
  "-" (U+002D) character, the tool may insert a single
  U+0020 SPACE character at the end of such comments.</p>

  <p>If the XML API restricts allowed characters in character data,
  attribute values, or comments, the tool may replace any "FF" (U+000C) character with a U+0020 SPACE character, and any other
  literal non-XML character with a U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.</p>

  <p>If the tool has no way to convey out-of-band information, then
  the tool may drop the following information:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>Whether the document is set to <i><a href="#no-quirks-mode">no-quirks mode</a></i>,
   <i><a href="#limited-quirks-mode">limited-quirks mode</a></i>, or <i><a href="#quirks-mode">quirks mode</a></i></li>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>This section examines some erroneous markup and discusses how
  the <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a> handles these cases.</p>


  <h5 id="misnested-tags:-b-i-/b-/i"><span class="secno">8.2.8.1 </span>Misnested tags: &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The most-often discussed example of erroneous markup is as
  follows:</p>

  <pre>&lt;p&gt;1&lt;b&gt;2&lt;i&gt;3&lt;/b&gt;4&lt;/i&gt;5&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>The parsing of this markup is straightforward up to the "3". At
  this point, the DOM looks like this:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">3</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>Here, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> has five elements
  on it: <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>. The <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active
  formatting elements</a> just has two: <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> and
  <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>. The <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is "<a href="#parsing-main-inbody" title="insertion mode: in body">in body</a>".</p>

  <p>Upon receiving the end tag token with the tag name "b", the "<a href="#adoptionAgency">adoption agency algorithm</a>" is
  invoked. This is a simple case, in that the <var title="">formatting
  element</var> is the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element, and there is no
  <var title="">furthest block</var>. Thus, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open
  elements</a> ends up with just three elements: <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>, while the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of
  active formatting elements</a> has just one: <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code>. The
  DOM tree is unmodified at this point.</p>

  <p>The next token is a character ("4"), triggers the <a href="#reconstruct-the-active-formatting-elements" title="reconstruct the active formatting elements">reconstruction of
  the active formatting elements</a>, in this case just the
  <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element. A new <code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code> element is thus created
  for the "4" <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node. After the end tag token for the
  "i" is also received, and the "5" <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node is
  inserted, the DOM looks as follows:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">3</span></li></ul></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-i-element">i</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">4</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">5</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>


  <h5 id="misnested-tags:-b-p-/b-/p"><span class="secno">8.2.8.2 </span>Misnested tags: &lt;b&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>A case similar to the previous one is the following:</p>

  <pre>&lt;b&gt;1&lt;p&gt;2&lt;/b&gt;3&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

  <p>Up to the "2" the parsing here is straightforward:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The interesting part is when the end tag token with the tag name
  "b" is parsed.</p>

  <p>Before that token is seen, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open
  elements</a> has four elements on it: <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>. The
  <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting elements</a> just has the one:
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>. The <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is "<a href="#parsing-main-inbody" title="insertion mode: in body">in body</a>".</p>

  <p>Upon receiving the end tag token with the tag name "b", the "<a href="#adoptionAgency">adoption agency algorithm</a>" is invoked, as
  in the previous example. However, in this case, there <em>is</em> a
  <var title="">furthest block</var>, namely the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element. Thus,
  this time the adoption agency algorithm isn't skipped over.</p>

  <p>The <var title="">common ancestor</var> is the <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>
  element. A conceptual "bookmark" marks the position of the
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> in the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting
  elements</a>, but since that list has only one element in it,
  the bookmark won't have much effect.</p>

  <p>As the algorithm progresses, <var title="">node</var> ends up set
  to the formatting element (<code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>), and <var title="">last
  node</var> ends up set to the <var title="">furthest block</var>
  (<code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>).</p>

  <p>The <var title="">last node</var> gets appended (moved) to the
  <var title="">common ancestor</var>, so that the DOM looks like:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>A new <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is created, and the children of the
  <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element are moved to it:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>
  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>Finally, the new <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is appended to the
  <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element, so that the DOM looks like:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is removed from the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of
  active formatting elements</a> and the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open
  elements</a>, so that when the "3" is parsed, it is appended to
  the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">1</span></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">2</span></li></ul></li><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">3</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>


  <h5 id="unexpected-markup-in-tables"><span class="secno">8.2.8.3 </span>Unexpected markup in tables</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Error handling in tables is, for historical reasons, especially
  strange. For example, consider the following markup:</p>

  <pre>&lt;table&gt;<strong><a href="#the-b-element">&lt;b&gt;</a></strong>&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;aaa&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<strong>bbb</strong>&lt;/table&gt;ccc</pre>

  <p>The highlighted <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element start tag is not allowed
  directly inside a table like that, and the parser handles this case
  by placing the element <em>before</em> the table. (This is called <i title="foster parent"><a href="#foster-parent">foster parenting</a></i>.) This can be seen by
  examining the DOM tree as it stands just after the
  <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element's start tag has been seen:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>...and then immediately after the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element start
  tag has been seen:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>At this point, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> has on it
  the elements <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> (in that order, despite the
  resulting DOM tree); the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting
  elements</a> just has the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element in it; and the
  <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is "<a href="#parsing-main-intable" title="insertion mode: in
  table">in table</a>".</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> start tag causes the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element
  to be popped off the stack and a <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code> start tag to be
  implied; the <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code> and <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code> elements are
  then handled in a rather straight-forward manner, taking the parser
  through the "<a href="#parsing-main-intbody" title="insertion mode: in table body">in table
  body</a>" and "<a href="#parsing-main-intr" title="insertion mode: in row">in
  row</a>" insertion modes, after which the DOM looks as
  follows:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>Here, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> has on it the
  elements <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code>, and <code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code>; the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active
  formatting elements</a> still has the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element in
  it; and the <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is "<a href="#parsing-main-intr" title="insertion
  mode: in row">in row</a>".</p>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code> element start tag token, after putting a
  <code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code> element on the tree, puts a marker on the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list
  of active formatting elements</a> (it also switches to the "<a href="#parsing-main-intd" title="insertion mode: in cell">in cell</a>" <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion
  mode</a>).</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The marker means that when the "aaa" character tokens are seen,
  no <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is created to hold the resulting <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">aaa</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The end tags are handled in a straight-forward manner; after
  handling them, the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> has on it the
  elements <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code>,
  and <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code>; the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting
  elements</a> still has the <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element in it (the
  marker having been removed by the "td" end tag token); and the
  <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is "<a href="#parsing-main-intbody" title="insertion mode: in
  table body">in table body</a>".</p>

  <p>Thus it is that the "bbb" character tokens are found. These
  trigger the "<a href="#parsing-main-intabletext" title="insertion mode: in table text">in table
  text</a>" insertion mode to be used (with the <a href="#original-insertion-mode">original
  insertion mode</a> set to "<a href="#parsing-main-intbody" title="insertion mode: in table
  body">in table body</a>"). The character tokens are collected,
  and when the next token (the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element end tag) is
  seen, they are processed as a group. Since they are not all spaces,
  they are handled as per the "anything else" rules in the "<a href="#parsing-main-intable" title="insertion mode: in table">in table</a>" insertion mode,
  which defer to the "<a href="#parsing-main-inbody" title="insertion mode: in body">in
  body</a>" insertion mode but with <a href="#foster-parent" title="foster
  parent">foster parenting</a>.</p>

  <p>When <a href="#reconstruct-the-active-formatting-elements" title="reconstruct the active formatting elements">the
  active formatting elements are reconstructed</a>, a
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element is created and <a href="#foster-parent" title="foster
  parent">foster parented</a>, and then the "bbb" <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code>
  node is appended to it:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">bbb</span></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-tr-element">tr</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-td-element">td</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">aaa</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>The <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> has on it the elements
  <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code>, <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code>,
  <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code>, and the new <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> (again, note that
  this doesn't match the resulting tree!); the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active
  formatting elements</a> has the new <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> element in it;
  and the <a href="#insertion-mode">insertion mode</a> is still "<a href="#parsing-main-intbody" title="insertion
  mode: in table body">in table body</a>".</p>

  <p>Had the character tokens been only <a href="#space-character" title="space
  character">space characters</a> instead of "bbb", then those
  <a href="#space-character" title="space character">space characters</a> would just be
  appended to the <code><a href="#the-tbody-element">tbody</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>Finally, the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> is closed by a "table" end
  tag. This pops all the nodes from the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open
  elements</a> up to and including the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element,
  but it doesn't affect the <a href="#list-of-active-formatting-elements">list of active formatting
  elements</a>, so the "ccc" character tokens after the table

  <h5 id="scripts-that-modify-the-page-as-it-is-being-parsed"><span class="secno">8.2.8.4 </span>Scripts that modify the page as it is being parsed</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Consider the following markup, which for this example we will
  assume is the document with <a href="#url">URL</a> <code title="">http://example.com/inner</code>, being rendered as the
  content of an <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> in another document with the
  <a href="#url">URL</a> <code title="">http://example.com/outer</code>:</p>

  <pre>&lt;div id=a&gt;
 &lt;script&gt;
  var div = document.getElementById('a');
  parent.document.body.appendChild(div);
 &lt;/script&gt;
 &lt;script&gt;
  alert(document.URL);
 &lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
 alert(document.URL);
&lt;/script&gt;</pre>

  <p>Up to the first "script" end tag, before the script is parsed,
  the result is relatively straightforward:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">id</code>="<code class="attribute value"><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>"</span><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">
 </span></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">var div = document.getElementById('a'); ⏎ parent.document.body.appendChild(div);</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>After the script is parsed, though, the <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element
  and its child <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element are gone:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>They are, at this point, in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> of the
  aforementioned outer <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>. However, the
  <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> <em>still contains the
  <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element</em>.</p>

  <p>Thus, when the second <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is parsed, it
  is inserted <em>into the outer <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>
  object</em>.</p>

  <p>Those parsed into different <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s than the one
  the parser was created for do not execute, so the first alert does
  not show.</p>

  <p>Once the <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element's end tag is parsed, the
  <code><a href="#the-div-element">div</a></code> element is popped off the stack, and so the next
  <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is in the inner <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">alert(document.URL);</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>This script does execute, resulting in an alert that says "http://example.com/inner".</p>


  <h5 id="the-execution-of-scripts-that-are-moving-across-multiple-documents"><span class="secno">8.2.8.5 </span>The execution of scripts that are moving across multiple documents</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>Elaborating on the example in the previous section, consider the
  case where the second <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element is an external
  script (i.e. one with a <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code>
  attribute). Since the element was not in the parser's
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> when it was created, that external script is
  not even downloaded.</p>

  <p>In a case where a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-script-src"><a href="#attr-script-src">src</a></code> attribute is parsed normally into
  its parser's <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, but while the external script is
  being downloaded, the element is moved to another document, the
  script continues to download, but does not execute.</p>

  <p class="note">In general, moving <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> elements
  between <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s is considered a bad practice.</p>



  <h5 id="unclosed-formatting-elements"><span class="secno">8.2.8.6 </span>Unclosed formatting elements</h5>

  <p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p>
  <p>The following markup shows how nested formatting elements (such
  as <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code>) get collected and continue to be applied even as
  the elements they are contained in are closed, but that excessive
  duplicates are thrown away.</p>

  <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b class=x&gt;&lt;b class=x&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b class=x&gt;&lt;b class=x&gt;&lt;b&gt;X
&lt;p&gt;X
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b class=x&gt;&lt;b&gt;X
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;X</pre>

  <p>The resulting DOM tree is as follows:</p>

  <ul class="domTree"><li class="t10">DOCTYPE: <code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-html-element">html</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-head-element">head</a></code></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-body-element">body</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">X⏎</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">X⏎</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> <span class="t2" title=""><code class="attribute name">class</code>="<code class="attribute value">x</code>"</span><ul><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">X⏎</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li><li class="t1"><code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code><ul><li class="t3"><code><a href="#text-0">#text</a></code>: <span title="">X⏎</span></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul>

  <p>Note how the second <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element in the markup has no
  explicit <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> elements, but in the resulting DOM, up to
  three of each kind of formatting element (in this case three
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> elements with the class attribute, and two unadorned
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> elements) get reconstructed before the element's
  "X".</p>

  <p>Also note how this means that in the final paragraph only six
  <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> end tags are needed to completely clear the list of
  formatting elements, even though nine <code><a href="#the-b-element">b</a></code> start tags have
  been seen up to this point.</p>

   at that point and the rest of the comment will be interpreted as
   markup. More examples would be making a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element
   contain a <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node with the text string
   "<code>&lt;/script&gt;</code>", or having a <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code> element
   that contains a <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code> element (as the <code><a href="#the-ul-element">ul</a></code>
   element's <a href="#syntax-start-tag" title="syntax-start-tag">start tag</a> would
   imply the end tag for the <code><a href="#the-p-element">p</a></code>).</p>

   <p>This can enable cross-site scripting attacks. An example of this would be a page that lets the
   user enter some font family names that are then inserted into a CSS <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> block via
   the DOM and which then uses the <code title="dom-innerHTML"><a href="#dom-innerhtml">innerHTML</a></code> IDL attribute to get
   the HTML serialization of that <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element: if the user enters
   "<code>&lt;/style&gt;&lt;script&gt;attack&lt;/script&gt;</code>" as a font family name, <code title="dom-innerHTML"><a href="#dom-innerhtml">innerHTML</a></code> will return markup that, if parsed in a different context,
   would contain a <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> node, even though no <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> node existed in the
   original DOM.</p>

  <h3 id="parsing-html-fragments"><span class="secno">8.4 </span>Parsing HTML fragments</h3>

  <p>The following steps form the <dfn id="html-fragment-parsing-algorithm">HTML fragment parsing
  algorithm</dfn>. The algorithm optionally takes as input an
  <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code> node, referred to as the <dfn id="concept-frag-parse-context" title="concept-frag-parse-context"><var>context</var></dfn> element,
  which gives the context for the parser, as well as <var title="">input</var>, a string to parse, and returns a list of zero
  or more nodes.</p>

  <p class="note">Parts marked <dfn id="fragment-case">fragment case</dfn> in algorithms
  in the parser section are parts that only occur if the parser was
  created for the purposes of this algorithm (and with a <var title="concept-frag-parse-context"><a href="#concept-frag-parse-context">context</a></var> element). The
  algorithms have been annotated with such markings for informational
  purposes only; such markings have no normative weight. If it is
  possible for a condition described as a <a href="#fragment-case">fragment case</a>
  to occur even when the parser wasn't created for the purposes of
  handling this algorithm, then that is an error in the
  specification.</p>

  <ol>

    <p>If there is a <var title="concept-frag-parse-context"><a href="#concept-frag-parse-context">context</a></var> element, run
    these substeps:</p>

    <ol>

     <li>

      <p>Set the state of the <a href="#html-parser">HTML parser</a>'s
      <a href="#tokenization">tokenization</a> stage as follows:</p>

      <dl class="switch">

      <p class="note">For performance reasons, an implementation that

      described in this specification directly could use the PLAINTEXT
      state instead of the RAWTEXT and script data states where those
      are mentioned in the list above. Except for rules regarding
      parse errors, they are equivalent, since there is no
      <a href="#appropriate-end-tag-token">appropriate end tag token</a> in the fragment case, yet
      they involve far fewer state transitions.</p>

      of that algorithm.</p>

     </li>

     <li>

      <p>Set the parser's <a href="#form-element-pointer"><code>form</code> element
      pointer</a> to the nearest node to the <var title="concept-frag-parse-context"><a href="#concept-frag-parse-context">context</a></var> element that is

  <h2 id="the-xhtml-syntax"><span class="secno">9 </span><dfn id="xhtml">The XHTML syntax</dfn></h2>

  <p class="note">This section only describes the rules for XML
  resources. Rules for <code><a href="#text/html">text/html</a></code> resources are discussed
  in the section above entitled "<a href="#syntax">The HTML syntax</a>".</p>


  <div class="impl">

  <h3 id="writing-xhtml-documents"><span class="secno">9.1 </span>Writing XHTML documents</h3>

  </div>

  <p>The syntax for using HTML with XML, whether in XHTML documents or
  embedded in other XML documents, is defined in the XML and
  Namespaces in XML specifications. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a> <a href="#refsXMLNS">[XMLNS]</a></p>

  <p>This specification does not define any syntax-level requirements
  beyond those defined for XML proper.</p>

  <p>XML documents may contain a <code>DOCTYPE</code> if desired, but
  this is not required to conform to this specification. This
  specification does not define a public or system identifier, nor
  provide a formal DTD.</p>

  <p class="note">According to the XML specification, XML processors
  are not guaranteed to process the external DTD subset referenced in
  the DOCTYPE. This means, for example, that using <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#dt-entref">entity references</a>
  for characters in XHTML documents is unsafe if they are defined in
  an external file (except for <code title="">&amp;lt;</code>, <code title="">&amp;gt;</code>, <code title="">&amp;amp;</code>, <code title="">&amp;quot;</code> and <code title="">&amp;apos;</code>).</p>


  <div class="impl">

  <h3 id="parsing-xhtml-documents"><span class="secno">9.2 </span>Parsing XHTML documents</h3>

  <p>This section describes the relationship between XML and the DOM, with a particular emphasis on
  how this interacts with HTML.</p>

  <p>An <dfn id="xml-parser">XML parser</dfn>, for the purposes of this specification, is a construct that follows
  the rules given in the XML specification to map a string of bytes or characters into a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object.</p>

  <p class="note">At the time of writing, no such rules actually exist.</p>

  <p>An <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a> is either associated with a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object when it is
  created, or creates one implicitly.</p>

  <p>This <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> must then be populated with DOM nodes that represent the tree
  structure of the input passed to the parser, as defined by the XML specification, the Namespaces
  in XML specification, and the DOM specification. DOM mutation events must not fire for the
  operations that the <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a> performs on the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>'s tree, but the
  user agent must act as if elements and attributes were individually appended and set respectively
  so as to trigger rules in this specification regarding what happens when an element is inserted
  into a document or has its attributes set, and the DOM specification's requirements regarding
  mutation observers mean that mutation observers <em>are</em> fired (unlike mutation events). <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a> <a href="#refsXMLNS">[XMLNS]</a> <a href="#refsDOM">[DOM]</a> <a href="#refsDOMEVENTS">[DOMEVENTS]</a></p>

  <p>Between the time an element's start tag is parsed and the time either the element's end tag is
  parsed or the parser detects a well-formedness error, the user agent must act as if the element
  was in a <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a>.</p>

  <p class="note">This is used by the <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element to avoid instantiating plugins
  before the <code><a href="#the-param-element">param</a></code> element children have been parsed.</p>

  <p>This specification provides the following additional information that user agents should use
  when retrieving an external entity: the public identifiers given in the following list all

  <h3 id="serializing-xhtml-fragments"><span class="secno">9.3 </span>Serializing XHTML fragments</h3>

  <p>The <dfn id="xml-fragment-serialization-algorithm">XML fragment serialization algorithm</dfn> for a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> or <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code> node either returns a
  fragment of XML that represents that node or throws an
  exception.</p>

  <p>For <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>s, the algorithm must return a string in
  the form of a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#sec-well-formed">document
  entity</a>, if none of the error cases below apply.</p>

  <p>For <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code>s, the algorithm must return a string in
  the form of an <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#wf-entities">internal general parsed
  entity</a>, if none of the error cases below apply.</p>

  <p>In both cases, the string returned must be XML
  namespace-well-formed and must be an isomorphic serialization of all
  of that node's <a href="#relevant-child-nodes">relevant child nodes</a>, in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a>. User agents
  may adjust prefixes and namespace declarations in the serialization
  (and indeed might be forced to do so in some cases to obtain
  namespace-well-formed XML). User agents may use a combination of
  regular text and character references to represent
  <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> nodes in the DOM.</p>

  <p>A node's <dfn id="relevant-child-nodes">relevant child nodes</dfn> are those that apply given the following rules:</p>

  <dl>

   <dt>For <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> elements</dt>

   <dd>The <a href="#relevant-child-nodes">relevant child nodes</a> are the child nodes of the <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code>
   element's <a href="#template-contents">template contents</a>, if any.</dd>

   <dt>For all other nodes</dt>

   <dd>The <a href="#relevant-child-nodes">relevant child nodes</a> are the child nodes of node itself, if any.</dd>

  </dl>

  <p>For <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code>s, if any of the elements in the
  serialization are in no namespace, the default namespace in scope
  for those elements must be explicitly declared as the empty
  string.<!-- because otherwise round-tripping might break since it'll
  pick up the surrounding default ns when setting --> (This doesn't
  apply in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> case.) <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a> <a href="#refsXMLNS">[XMLNS]</a></p>

  <p>For the purposes of this section, an internal general parsed
  entity is considered XML namespace-well-formed if a document
  consisting of an element with no namespace declarations whose
  contents are the internal general parsed entity would itself be XML
  namespace-well-formed.</p>

  <p>If any of the following error cases are found in the DOM subtree
  being serialized, then the algorithm must throw an
  <code><a href="#invalidstateerror">InvalidStateError</a></code> exception instead of returning a
  string:</p>

  <ul>

   <li>A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> node with no child element nodes.</li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#documenttype">DocumentType</a></code> node that has an external subset
   public identifier that contains characters that are not matched by
   the XML <code title="">PubidChar</code> production. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#documenttype">DocumentType</a></code> node that has an external subset
   system identifier that contains both a """ (U+0022)
   and a "'" (U+0027) or that contains characters that are
   not matched by the XML <code title="">Char</code> production. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></li>

   <li>A node with a <!--prefix or--> local name containing a ":" (U+003A).</li> <!--(prefixes can get adjusted, so this isn't an
   excuse) -->

   <li>A node with a <!--prefix or--> local name that does not match
   the XML <code title="">Name</code> production. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></li> <!--(again, prefixes can get
   adjusted, so this isn't an excuse) -->

   <li>An <code><a href="#attr">Attr</a></code> node with no namespace whose local name is
   the lowercase string "<code title="">xmlns</code>". <a href="#refsXMLNS">[XMLNS]</a></li>

   <li>An <code><a href="#element">Element</a></code> node with two or more attributes with
   the same local name and namespace.</li>

   <li>An <code><a href="#attr">Attr</a></code> node, <code><a href="#text-0">Text</a></code> node,
   <code><a href="#comment-0">Comment</a></code> node, or <code><a href="#processinginstruction">ProcessingInstruction</a></code>
   node whose data contains characters that are not matched by the XML
   <code title="">Char</code> production. <a href="#refsXML">[XML]</a></li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#comment-0">Comment</a></code> node whose data contains two adjacent
   "-" (U+002D) characters or ends with such a
   character.</li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#processinginstruction">ProcessingInstruction</a></code> node whose target name is
   an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for the string "<code title="">xml</code>".</li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#processinginstruction">ProcessingInstruction</a></code> node whose target name
   contains a ":" (U+003A).</li>

   <li>A <code><a href="#processinginstruction">ProcessingInstruction</a></code> node whose data contains
   the string "<code title="">?&gt;</code>".</li>

  </ul>

  <p class="note">These are the only ways to make a DOM
  unserializable. The DOM enforces all the other XML constraints; for
  example, trying to append two elements to a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>
  node will throw a <code><a href="#hierarchyrequesterror">HierarchyRequestError</a></code> exception.</p>

  <p>When the algorithm must produce a serialization of a <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> element, the string
  returned must contain a serialization of the child nodes of the template element's <code title="dom-template-content"><a href="#dom-template-content">content</a></code> <code><a href="#documentfragment">DocumentFragment</a></code>, rather than the
  <code><a href="#the-template-element">template</a></code> element's children.</p>
  


  <h3 id="parsing-xhtml-fragments"><span class="secno">9.4 </span>Parsing XHTML fragments</h3>

  <p>The <dfn id="xml-fragment-parsing-algorithm">XML fragment parsing algorithm</dfn> either returns a
  <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> or throws a <code><a href="#syntaxerror">SyntaxError</a></code> exception.
  Given a string <var title="">input</var> and an optional context
  element <var title="concept-frag-parse-context"><a href="#concept-frag-parse-context">context</a></var>, the
  algorithm is as follows:</p>

  <ol>

    <p>Create a new <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a>.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    all the namespace prefixes that are in scope on that element in the DOM, as well as declaring
    the default namespace (if any) that is in scope on that element in the DOM.</p>

    <p>A namespace prefix is in scope if the DOM <code title="">lookupNamespaceURI()</code> method
    on the element would return a non-null value for that prefix.</p>

    <p>The default namespace is the namespace for which the DOM <code title="">isDefaultNamespace()</code> method on the element would return true.</p>

    <p class="note">If there is a <var title="concept-frag-parse-context"><a href="#concept-frag-parse-context">context</a></var> element, no
    <code title="">DOCTYPE</code> is passed to the parser, and therefore no external subset is
    referenced, and therefore no entities will be recognized.</p>

   </li>

   <li>

    <p><a href="#feed-the-parser">Feed the parser</a> just created the string <var title="">input</var>.</p>

  <h2 id="rendering"><span class="secno">10 </span>Rendering</h2>

  <p><i>User agents are not required to present HTML documents in any
  particular way. However, this section provides a set of suggestions
  for rendering HTML documents that, if followed, are likely to lead
  to a user experience that closely resembles the experience intended
  by the documents' authors. So as to avoid confusion regarding the
  normativity of this section, RFC2119 terms have not been used.
  Instead, the term "expected" is used to indicate behavior that will
  lead to this experience. For the purposes of conformance for user
  agents designated as <a href="#renderingUA">supporting the suggested
  default rendering</a>, the term "expected" in this section has the
  same conformance implications as the RFC2119-defined term
  "must".</i></p>


  <h3 id="introduction-8"><span class="secno">10.1 </span>Introduction</h3>

  <p>In general, user agents are expected to support CSS, and many of the suggestions in this
  section are expressed in CSS terms. User agents that use other presentation mechanisms can derive
  their expected behavior by translating from the CSS rules given in this section.</p>

  <p>In the absence of style-layer rules to the contrary (e.g. author style sheets), user agents are
  expected to render an element so that it conveys to the user the meaning that the element
  <a href="#represents">represents</a>, as described by this specification.</p>

  <p>The suggestions in this section generally assume a visual output medium with a resolution of
  96dpi or greater, but HTML is intended to apply to multiple media (it is a
  <i>media-independent</i> language). User agent implementors are encouraged to adapt the
  suggestions in this section to their target media.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>An element is <dfn id="being-rendered">being rendered</dfn> if it has any associated CSS layout boxes, SVG layout
  boxes, or some equivalent in other styling languages.</p>

  <p class="note">Just being off-screen does not mean the element is not <a href="#being-rendered">being
  rendered</a>. The presence of the <code title="attr-hidden"><a href="#the-hidden-attribute">hidden</a></code> attribute normally
  means the element is not <a href="#being-rendered">being rendered</a>, though this might be overridden by the style
  sheets.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>User agents that do not honor author-level CSS style sheets are nonetheless expected to act as
  if they applied the CSS rules given in these sections in a manner consistent with this
  specification and the relevant CSS and Unicode specifications. <a href="#refsCSS">[CSS]</a> <a href="#refsUNICODE">[UNICODE]</a> <a href="#refsBIDI">[BIDI]</a></p>

  <p class="note">This is especially important for issues relating to the 'display', 'unicode-bidi',
  and 'direction' properties.</p>



  <h3 id="the-css-user-agent-style-sheet-and-presentational-hints"><span class="secno">10.2 </span>The CSS user agent style sheet and presentational hints</h3>

  <p>The CSS rules given in these subsections are, except where
  otherwise specified, expected to be used as part of the user-agent
  level style sheet defaults for all documents that contain <a href="#html-elements">HTML
  elements</a>.</p>

  <p>Some rules are intended for the author-level zero-specificity
  presentational hints part of the CSS cascade; these are explicitly
  called out as <dfn id="presentational-hints">presentational hints</dfn>.</p>

  <p>Some of the rules regarding left and right margins are given here
  as appropriate for elements whose 'direction' property is 'ltr', and
  are expected to be flipped around on elements whose 'direction'
  property is 'rtl'. These are marked "<dfn id="ltr-specific">LTR-specific</dfn>".</p>

  <p class="note">These markings only affect the handling of attribute
  <em>values</em>, not attribute names or element names.</p>

  using the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-non-negative-integers">rules for parsing non-negative integers</a>
  doesn't generate an error, then the user agent is expected to use

  <dfn id="maps-to-the-dimension-property">maps to the dimension property</dfn> (or properties) <var title="">properties</var>, it means that if <var title="">element</var> has an attribute <var title="">attribute</var> set, and parsing that attribute's value

  hints">presentational hint</a> for <var title="">properties</var>, with the value given as a pixel length if
  the dimension was an integer, and with the value given as a
  percentage if the dimension was a percentage.</p>

  <p>When a user agent is to <dfn id="align-descendants">align descendants</dfn> of a node,
  the user agent is expected to align only those descendants that have
  both their 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' properties computing to
  a value other than 'auto', that are over-constrained and that have
  one of those two margins with a used value forced to a greater
  value, and that do not themselves have an applicable <code title="attr-align">align</code> attribute. When multiple elements
  are to <a href="#align-descendants" title="align descendants">align</a> a particular

  <p>For the purposes of the CSS ruby model, runs of children of

  <code><a href="#the-rp-element">rp</a></code> elements are expected to be wrapped in anonymous
  boxes whose 'display' property has the value 'ruby-base'. <a href="#refsCSSRUBY">[CSSRUBY]</a></p>

  <p>When a particular part of a ruby has more than one annotation,
  the annotations should be distributed on both sides of the base text
  so as to minimize the stacking of ruby annotations on one side.</p>

  <p class="note">When it becomes possible to do so, the preceding
  requirement will be updated to be expressed in terms of CSS ruby.
  (Currently, CSS ruby does not handle nested <code><a href="#the-ruby-element">ruby</a></code>
  elements or multiple sequential <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code> elements, which is
  how this semantic is expressed.)</p>

  <p>User agents that do not support correct ruby rendering are
  expected to render parentheses around the text of <code><a href="#the-rt-element">rt</a></code>
  elements in the absence of <code><a href="#the-rp-element">rp</a></code> elements.</p>

  <code><a href="#the-br-element">br</a></code> elements with <code title="attr-br-clear"><a href="#attr-br-clear">clear</a></code> attributes) in the manner
  described in the non-normative note to this effect in CSS2.1.</p>
  <!-- section 9.5.2 of CSS2.1 -->

  <p>The initial value for the 'color' property is expected to be
  black. The initial value for the 'background-color' property is
  expected to be 'transparent'. The canvas' background is expected to
  be white.</p>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#font">font</a></code> element has a <code title="attr-font-color">color</code> attribute, its value is
  expected to be parsed using the <a href="#rules-for-parsing-a-legacy-color-value">rules for parsing a legacy

  agent is expected to treat the attribute as a <a href="#presentational-hints" title="presentational hints">presentational hint</a> setting the

  <p>When a <code><a href="#font">font</a></code> element has a <code title="attr-font-face">face</code> attribute, the user agent is

  already has intrinsic dimensions (e.g. from the <a href="#dimension-attributes">dimension attributes</a> or CSS rules),
  and either the user agent has reason to believe that the image will become <i title="img-available"><a href="#img-available">available</a></i><!--input-img-available also--> and be rendered in due course
  or the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is in <a href="#quirks-mode">quirks mode</a>, the element is expected to be treated
  as a replaced element whose content is the text that the element represents, if any, optionally

  the text is expected to appear button-like to indicate that the element is a <a href="#concept-button" title="concept-button">button</a>.</p>

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> some text and the user agent does not
  expect this to change, the element is expected to be treated as a non-replaced phrasing element
  whose content is the text, optionally with an icon indicating that an image is missing, so that
  the user can request the image be displayed or investigate why it is not rendering. In
  non-graphical contexts, such an icon should be omitted.</p>

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element <a href="#represents">represents</a> nothing and the user agent does not
  expect this to change, the element is expected to not be rendered at all.</p>

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element might be a key part of the content, but neither the image nor
  any kind of text alternative is available, and the user agent does not expect this to change, the
  element is expected to be treated as a non-replaced phrasing element whose content is an icon
  indicating that an image is missing.</p> <!-- there's also a should requirement for this case in
  the <img> section itself -->

  <p>When an <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element whose <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute is

  the element is expected to be treated as a replaced element consisting of a button whose content
  is the element's text alternative. The intrinsic dimensions of the button are expected to be about
  one line in height and whatever width is necessary to render the text on one line.</p>

  <p>The icons mentioned above are expected to be relatively small so as not to disrupt most text
  but be easily clickable. In a visual environment, for instance, icons could be 16 pixels by 16
  pixels square, or 1em by 1em if the images are scalable. In an audio environment, the icon could
  be a short bleep. The icons are intended to indicate to the user that they can be used to get to
  whatever options the UA provides for images, and, where appropriate, are expected to provide
  access to the context menu that would have come up if the user interacted with the actual
  image.</p>

  <hr>

  <p>All animated images with the same <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a> and the same image data are

  <p class="note">In other words, the animation loop of an animated image is restarted each time

  on the right and the end on the left if the 'direction' property on
  this element has a computed value of 'rtl', and with the start on
  the left and the end on the right otherwise. When the element is
  taller than it is wide, it is expected to depicted as a vertical
  progress bar, with the lowest value on the bottom. When the element
  is square, it is expected to be depicted as a direction-independent
  progress widget (e.g. a circular progress ring).</p>

  <p>User agents are expected to use a presentation consistent with
  platform conventions for progress bars. In particular, user agents
  are expected to use different presentations for determinate and
  indeterminate progress bars. User agents are also expected to vary
  the presentation based on the dimensions of the element.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, on some platforms for showing
  indeterminate progress there is an asynchronous progress indicator
  with square dimensions, which could be used when the element is
  square, and an indeterminate progress bar, which could be used when
  the element is wide.</p>

  <p class="note">Requirements for how to determine if the progress
  bar is determinate or indeterminate, and what progress a determinate
  progress bar is to show, are included in the definition of the
  <code><a href="#the-progress-element">progress</a></code> element.</p>

  <h4 id="editing-hosts"><span class="secno">10.7.3 </span>Editing hosts</h4>

  <p>The current text editing caret (i.e. the <a href="#active-range">active
  range</a>, if it is empty and in an <a href="#editing-host">editing host</a>),
  if any, is expected to act like an inline replaced element with the
  vertical dimensions of the caret and with zero width for the
  purposes of the CSS rendering model.</p>

  <p class="note">This means that even an empty block can have the
  caret inside it, and that when the caret is in such an element, it
  prevents margins from collapsing through the element.</p>



  <h4 id="text-rendered-in-native-user-interfaces"><span class="secno">10.7.4 </span>Text rendered in native user interfaces</h4>

  <p>User agents are expected to honor the Unicode semantics of text
  that is exposed in user interfaces, for example supporting the
  bidirectional algorithm in text shown in dialogs, title bars, pop-up
  menus, and tooltips. Text from the contents of elements is expected to be rendered in a manner
  that honors <a href="#the-directionality">the directionality</a> of the element from
  which the text was obtained. Text from attributes is expected to
  be rendered in a manner that honours the <a href="#directionality-of-the-attribute">directionality of the attribute</a>.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Consider the following markup, which has Hebrew text asking for
   a programming language, the languages being text for which a
   left-to-right direction is important given the punctuation in some
   of their names:</p>

   <pre>&lt;p dir="rtl" lang="he"&gt;
 &lt;label&gt;
  <span dir="rtl" lang="he" title="">בחר שפת תכנות:</span>
  &lt;select&gt;
   &lt;option dir="ltr"&gt;C++&lt;/option&gt;
   &lt;option dir="ltr"&gt;C#&lt;/option&gt;
   &lt;option dir="ltr"&gt;FreePascal&lt;/option&gt;
   &lt;option dir="ltr"&gt;F#&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
 &lt;/label&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

   <p>If the <code><a href="#the-select-element">select</a></code> element was rendered as a drop down
   box, a correct rendering would ensure that the punctuation was the
   same both in the drop down, and in the box showing the current
   selection.</p>

   <p><img alt="" height="105" src="images/bidiselect.png" width="206"></p> <!-- no need for alt text, the previous paragraph
   describes it completely -->

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>The directionality of attributes depends on the attribute and on the element's <code title="attr-dir"><a href="#the-dir-attribute">dir</a></code> attribute, as the following example demonstrates. Consider this
   markup:</p>

   <pre><bdo dir="ltr">&lt;table&gt;
 &lt;tr&gt;
  &lt;th abbr="(א" dir=ltr&gt;A
  &lt;th abbr="(א" dir=rtl&gt;A
  &lt;th abbr="(א" dir=auto&gt;A
&lt;/table&gt;</bdo></pre>

   <p>If the <code title="attr-th-abbr"><a href="#attr-th-abbr">abbr</a></code> attributes are rendered, e.g. in a tooltip or
   other user interface, the first will have a left parenthesis (because the direction is 'ltr'),
   the second will have a right parenthesis (because the direction is 'rtl'), and the third will
   have a right parenthesis (because the direction is determined <em>from the attribute value</em>
   to be 'rtl').</p>

   <p>However, if instead the attribute was not a <a href="#directionality-capable-attribute">directionality-capable attribute</a>, the
   results would be different:</p>

   <pre><bdo dir="ltr">&lt;table&gt;
 &lt;tr&gt;
  &lt;th data-abbr="(א" dir=ltr&gt;A
  &lt;th data-abbr="(א" dir=rtl&gt;A
  &lt;th data-abbr="(א" dir=auto&gt;A
&lt;/table&gt;</bdo></pre>

   <p>In this case, if the user agent were to expose the <code title="">data-abbr</code> attribute
   in the user interface (e.g. in a debugging environment), the last case would be rendered with a
   <em>left</em> parenthesis, because the direction would be determined from the element's
   contents.</p>

  </div>

  <p>A string provided by a script (e.g. the argument to <code title="dom-alert"><a href="#dom-alert">window.alert()</a></code>) is expected to be treated
  as an independent set of one or more bidirectional algorithm
  paragraphs when displayed, as defined by the bidirectional
  algorithm, including, for instance, supporting the
  paragraph-breaking behaviour of "LF" (U+000A) characters.
  For the purposes of determining the paragraph level of such text in
  the bidirectional algorithm, this specification does <em>not</em>
  provide a higher-level override of rules P2 and P3. <a href="#refsBIDI">[BIDI]</a></p>

  <p>When necessary, authors can enforce a particular direction for a
  given paragraph by starting it with the Unicode U+200E LEFT-TO-RIGHT
  MARK or U+200F RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK characters.</p>

  <div class="example">

   <p>Thus, the following script:</p>

   <pre>alert('\u05DC\u05DE\u05D3 HTML \u05D4\u05D9\u05D5\u05DD!')</pre>

   <p>...would always result in a message reading
        "<bdo dir="rtl" lang="" title="">למד LMTH היום!</bdo>"
   (not "<bdo dir="ltr" lang="" title="">דמל HTML םויה!</bdo>"),
   regardless of the language of the user agent interface or the
   direction of the page or any of its elements.</p>

  </div>

  <div class="example">

   <p>For a more complex example, consider the following script:</p>

   <pre class="bad">/* Warning: this script does not handle right-to-left scripts correctly */
var s;
if (s = prompt('What is your name?')) {
  alert(s + '! Ok, Fred, ' + s + ', and Wilma will get the car.');
}</pre>

   <p>When the user enters "<kbd>Kitty</kbd>", the user agent would
   alert "<samp>Kitty! Ok, Fred, Kitty, and Wilma will get the
   car.</samp>". However, if the user enters "<kbd dir="rtl" lang="ar">لا أفهم</kbd>",
   then the bidirectional algorithm will determine that the direction
   of the paragraph is right-to-left, and so the output will be the
   following unintended mess: "<samp lang=""><bdo dir="rtl">لا أفهم! derF ,kO, لا أفهم, rac eht teg lliw amliW dna.</bdo></samp>"</p>

   <p>To force an alert that starts with user-provided text (or other
   text of unknown directionality) to render left-to-right, the string
   can be prefixed with a U+200E LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK character:</p>

   <pre>var s;
if (s = prompt('What is your name?')) {
  alert('<strong>\u200E</strong>' + s + '! Ok, Fred, ' + s + ', and Wilma will get the car.');
}</pre>

  </div>



  <h3 id="print-media"><span class="secno">10.8 </span>Print media</h3>

  <p>User agents are expected to allow the user to request the
  opportunity to <dfn id="obtain-a-physical-form">obtain a physical form</dfn> (or a
  representation of a physical form) of a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>. For
  example, selecting the option to print a page or convert it to PDF
  format. <a href="#refsPDF">[PDF]</a></p>

  <p>When the user actually <a href="#obtain-a-physical-form" title="obtain a physical
  form">obtains a physical form</a> (or a representation of a
  physical form) of a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>, the user agent is
  expected to create a new rendering of the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> for
  the print media.</p>



  <h3 id="unstyled-xml-documents"><span class="secno">10.9 </span>Unstyled XML documents</h3>

  <!-- http://hixie.ch/tests/evil/xml/ -->

  <p>HTML user agents may, in certain circumstances, find themselves rendering non-HTML documents
  that use vocabularies for which they lack any built-in knowledge. This section provides for a way
  for user agents to handle such documents in a somewhat useful manner.</p>

  <p>While a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is an <a href="#unstyled-document">unstyled document</a>, the user agent is expected
  to render <a href="#an-unstyled-document-view">an unstyled document view</a>.</p>

  <p>A <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> is an <dfn id="unstyled-document">unstyled document</dfn> while it matches the following
  conditions:</p>

  <ul>
   <li>The <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> has no author style sheets (whether referenced by HTTP headers, processing instructions, elements like <code><a href="#the-link-element">link</a></code>, inline elements like <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code>, or any other mechanism).
   </li><li>None of the elements in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> have any <a href="#presentational-hints">presentational hints</a>.
   </li><li>None of the elements in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> have any <a href="#css-styling-attribute" title="CSS styling attribute">CSS styling attributes</a>.
   </li><li>None of the elements in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> are in any of the following namespaces: <a href="#html-namespace-0">HTML namespace</a>, <a href="#svg-namespace">SVG namespace</a>, <a href="#mathml-namespace">MathML namespace</a>
   </li><li>The <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> has no <a href="#focusable">focusable</a> elements (e.g. from XLink).
   </li><li>The <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> has no <a href="#hyperlink" title="hyperlink">hyperlinks</a> (e.g. from XLink).
   </li><li>There exists no <a href="#concept-script" title="concept-script">script</a> whose <a href="#script's-document" title="script's document">document</a> is this <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code>.
   </li><li>None of the elements in the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> have any registered event listeners.
  </li></ul>

  <p><dfn id="an-unstyled-document-view">An unstyled document view</dfn> is one where the DOM is not rendered according to CSS
  (which would, since there are no applicable styles in this context, just result in a wall of
  text), but is instead rendered in a manner that is useful for a developer. This could consist of
  just showing the <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> object's source, maybe with syntax highlighting, or it
  could consist of displaying just the DOM tree, or simply a message saying that the page is not a
  styled document.</p>

  <p class="note">If a <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> stops being an <a href="#unstyled-document">unstyled document</a>, then the
  conditions above stop applying, and thus a user agent following these requirements will switch to
  using the regular CSS rendering.</p>

  <h3 id="obsolete-but-conforming-features"><span class="secno">11.1 </span>Obsolete but conforming features</h3>

  <p>Features listed in this section will trigger warnings in

  <p class="auth">Authors should not specify a <code title="attr-img-border"><a href="#attr-img-border">border</a></code> attribute on an

  "<code title="">JavaScript</code>" and either the <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute must be omitted or
  its value must be an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for
  the string "<code title="">text/javascript</code>". The attribute
  should be entirely omitted instead (with the value "<code title="">JavaScript</code>", it has no effect), or replaced with use
  of the <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p class="auth">Authors should not specify the <code title="attr-a-name"><a href="#attr-a-name">name</a></code> attribute on <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code>
  elements. If the attribute is present, its value must not be the

  <!-- remove this once type=number is widely supported -->
  <p class="auth">Authors should not, but may despite requirements to the contrary

  are in the <a href="#number-state-(type=number)" title="attr-input-type-number">Number</a> state.
  One valid reason for using these attributes regardless is to help
  legacy user agents that do not support <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> elements
  with <code title="">type="number"</code> to still render the text

  <p class="note">In <a href="#syntax">the HTML syntax</a>, specifying a <a href="#syntax-doctype" title="syntax-DOCTYPE">DOCTYPE</a> that is an <a href="#obsolete-permitted-doctype">obsolete

  <div class="impl">

  <h4 id="warnings-for-obsolete-but-conforming-features"><span class="secno">11.1.1 </span>Warnings for obsolete but conforming features</h4>

  <p>To ease the transition from HTML4 Transitional documents to the
  language defined in <em>this</em> specification, and to discourage
  certain features that are only allowed in very few circumstances,
  conformance checkers are required to warn the user when the
  following features are used in a document. These are generally old
  obsolete features that have no effect, and are allowed only to
  distinguish between likely mistakes (regular conformance errors) and
  mere vestigial markup or unusual and discouraged practices (these
  warnings).</p>

  <p>The following features must be categorized as described
  above:</p>

  <ul><!-- downplayed list -->

   <li><p>The presence of an <a href="#obsolete-permitted-doctype">obsolete permitted DOCTYPE</a>
   in an <a href="#html-documents" title="HTML documents">HTML document</a>.</p></li>

   <li><p>The presence of a <code title="attr-img-border"><a href="#attr-img-border">border</a></code> attribute on an
   <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element if its value is the string "<code title="">0</code>".</p></li>

   <li><p>The presence of a <code title="attr-script-language"><a href="#attr-script-language">language</a></code> attribute on a
   <code><a href="#the-script-element">script</a></code> element if its value is an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII
   case-insensitive</a> match for the string "<code title="">JavaScript</code>" and if there is no <code title="attr-script-type"><a href="#attr-script-type">type</a></code> attribute or there is and its
   value is an <a href="#ascii-case-insensitive">ASCII case-insensitive</a> match for the
   string "<code title="">text/javascript</code>".</p></li>

   <li><p>The presence of a <code title="attr-a-name"><a href="#attr-a-name">name</a></code>
   attribute on an <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element, if its value is not the
   empty string.</p></li>

   <li><p>The presence of a <code title="attr-input-maxlength"><a href="#attr-input-maxlength">maxlength</a></code> attribute on an
   <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element whose <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute is in the <a href="#number-state-(type=number)" title="attr-input-type-number">Number</a> state.</p></li>

   <li><p>The presence of a <code title="attr-input-size"><a href="#attr-input-size">size</a></code> attribute on an
   <code><a href="#the-input-element">input</a></code> element whose <code title="attr-input-type"><a href="#attr-input-type">type</a></code> attribute is in the <a href="#number-state-(type=number)" title="attr-input-type-number">Number</a> state.</p></li>

  </ul>

  <p>Conformance checkers must distinguish between pages that have no
  conformance errors and have none of these obsolete features, and
  pages that have no conformance errors but do have some of these
  obsolete features.</p>

  <p class="example">For example, a validator could report some pages
  as "Valid HTML" and others as "Valid HTML with warnings".</p>

  <p class="auth">The <code title="attr-table-border"><a href="#attr-table-border">border</a></code> attribute on
  the <code><a href="#the-table-element">table</a></code> element can be used to provide basic fallback
  styling for the purpose of making tables legible in browsing
  environments where CSS support is limited or absent, such as

  support is disabled or the style sheet is lost. Only the empty

  Other values are considered obsolete. To regulate the thickness of

  <h4 id="the-applet-element"><span class="secno">11.3.1 </span>The <dfn><code>applet</code></dfn> element</h4>

  <p>The <code><a href="#the-applet-element">applet</a></code> element is a Java-specific variant of the <code><a href="#the-embed-element">embed</a></code> element.
  The <code><a href="#the-applet-element">applet</a></code> element is now obsoleted so that all extension frameworks (Java, .NET,
  Flash, etc) are handled in a consistent manner.</p>

  <ul class="brief">

   <li>The element is still in the <a href="#stack-of-open-elements">stack of open elements</a> of an <a href="#html-parser">HTML
   parser</a> or <a href="#xml-parser">XML parser</a>.</li>

   <li>The element is not <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a>.</li>

   <li>The element has an ancestor <a href="#media-element">media element</a>.</li>

   <li>The element has an ancestor <code><a href="#the-object-element">object</a></code> element that is <em>not</em> showing its

   <li>No Java Language runtime <a href="#plugin">plugin</a> is available.</li>

   <li>A Java runtime <a href="#plugin">plugin</a> is available but it is disabled.</li>

  </ul>

  <!-- we assume here that the Java plugin can't be <span
  title="concept-plugin-secure">secured</span>; if anyone does end up securing one we can always
  change this -->

  <p>Otherwise, the user agent should instantiate a Java Language runtime <a href="#plugin">plugin</a>, and
  should pass the names and values of all the attributes on the element, in the order they were
  added to the element, with the attributes added by the parser being ordered in source order, and
  then a parameter named "PARAM" whose value is null, and then all the names and values of <a href="#concept-param-parameter" title="concept-param-parameter">parameters</a> given by <code><a href="#the-param-element">param</a></code> elements that are
  children of the <code><a href="#the-applet-element">applet</a></code> element, in <a href="#tree-order">tree order</a>, to the
  <a href="#plugin">plugin</a> used. If the <a href="#plugin">plugin</a> supports a scriptable interface, the

  <p>The <dfn id="frame"><code>frame</code></dfn> element defines a <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>
  similar to the <code><a href="#the-iframe-element">iframe</a></code> element, but rendered within a <code><a href="#frameset">frameset</a></code>
  element.</p>

  <!-- START of section that's very similar to <iframe> -->

  <p>A <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element is said to be an <dfn id="active-frame-element">active <code>frame</code> element</dfn> when
  it is <a href="#in-a-document">in a <code>Document</code></a> and its parent element, if any, is a
  <code><a href="#frameset">frameset</a></code> element.</p>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element is created as an <a href="#active-frame-element">active <code>frame</code>
  element</a>, or becomes an <a href="#active-frame-element">active <code>frame</code> element</a> after not having been
  one, the user agent must create a <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>, and then <a href="#process-the-frame-attributes">process the
  <code>frame</code> attributes</a> for the first time.</p>

  <p>When a <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element stops being an <a href="#active-frame-element">active <code>frame</code>
  element</a>, the user agent must <a href="#a-browsing-context-is-discarded" title="a browsing context is discarded">discard</a>
  the <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a>.</p>

  <p>Whenever a <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element with a <a href="#nested-browsing-context">nested browsing context</a> has its <code title="attr-frame-src">src</code> attribute set, changed, or removed, the user agent must
  <a href="#process-the-frame-attributes">process the <code>frame</code> attributes</a>.</p> <!-- It doesn't happen when the base
  URL is changed, though. -->

  <p>When the user agent is to <dfn id="process-the-frame-attributes">process the <code>frame</code> attributes</dfn>, it must run the
  first appropriate steps from the following list:</p>

  <dl class="switch">

   <dt>If the element has no <code title="attr-frame-src">src</code> attribute specified, and the
   user agent is processing the <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code>'s attributes for the first time</dt>

    <p><a href="#queue-a-task">Queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-load">load</code> at the <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element.</p>

   </dd>

   <dt>Otherwise</dt>

   <dd>

    <ol>

     <li>

      <p>If the value of the <code title="attr-frame-src">src</code> attribute is the empty string,
      let <var title="">url</var> be the string "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>".</p>

      <p>Otherwise, <a href="#resolve-a-url" title="resolve a url">resolve</a> the value of the <code title="attr-frame-src">src</code> attribute, relative to the <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element.</p>

      <p>If that is not successful, then let <var title="">url</var> be the string
      "<code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code>". Otherwise, let <var title="">url</var> be the resulting
      <a href="#absolute-url">absolute URL</a>.</p>

     </li>

     <li>

      <p><a href="#navigate">Navigate</a><!--DONAV frame--> the element's <a href="#child-browsing-context">child browsing context</a>

   </dd>

  </dl>

  <p>Any <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a> required of the user agent in the <a href="#process-the-frame-attributes">process
  the <code>frame</code> attributes</a> algorithm must be completed as an <a href="#explicit-self-navigation-override">explicit

  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a> as the <a href="#source-browsing-context">source browsing context</a>.</p>

  <p>Furthermore, if the <a href="#active-document">active document</a> of the element's <a href="#child-browsing-context">child browsing
  context</a> before such a <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a> was not <a href="#completely-loaded">completely
  loaded</a> at the time of the new <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a>, then the <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a> must be completed with <a href="#replacement-enabled">replacement enabled</a>.</p>

  <p>Similarly, if the <a href="#child-browsing-context">child browsing context</a>'s <a href="#session-history">session history</a> contained
  only one <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> when the <a href="#process-the-frame-attributes">process the <code>frame</code> attributes</a>
  algorithm was invoked, and that was the <code><a href="#about:blank">about:blank</a></code> <code><a href="#document">Document</a></code> created
  when the <a href="#child-browsing-context">child browsing context</a> was created, then any <a href="#navigate" title="navigate">navigation</a> required of the user agent in that algorithm must be completed
  with <a href="#replacement-enabled">replacement enabled</a>.</p> <!-- see also the note near similar text for the
  location.assign() method -->

  <!-- END of section that's very similar to <iframe> -->

  <p>When the browsing context is created, if a <code title="attr-frame-name">name</code> attribute
  is present, the <a href="#browsing-context-name">browsing context name</a> must be set to the value of this attribute;
  otherwise, the <a href="#browsing-context-name">browsing context name</a> must be set to the empty string.</p>

  <p>Whenever the <code title="attr-frame-name">name</code> attribute is set, the nested
  <a href="#browsing-context">browsing context</a>'s <a href="#browsing-context-name" title="browsing context name">name</a> must be changed to
  the new value. If the attribute is removed, the <a href="#browsing-context-name">browsing context name</a> must be set to
  the empty string.</p>

  <p>When content loads in a <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code>, after any <code title="event-load">load</code>
  events are fired within the content itself, the user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to
  <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-load">load</code> at the
  <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code> element. When content fails to load (e.g. due to a network error), then the
  user agent must <a href="#queue-a-task">queue a task</a> to <a href="#fire-a-simple-event">fire a simple event</a> named <code title="event-error">error</code> at the element instead.</p>

  <p>The <a href="#task-source">task source</a> for the <a href="#concept-task" title="concept-task">tasks</a> above is the

  <p>When there is an <a href="#active-parser">active parser</a> in the <code><a href="#frame">frame</a></code>, and when anything in the

  a <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute whose value is one that
  the user agent recognizes as supporting the <code title="attr-meta-scheme"><a href="#attr-meta-scheme">scheme</a></code> attribute.</p>

  <p>User agents are encouraged to ignore the <code title="attr-meta-scheme"><a href="#attr-meta-scheme">scheme</a></code> attribute and instead process

  <div class="example">

   <p>For example, if the user agent acts on <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code>
   elements with <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attributes
   having the value "eGMS.subject.keyword", and knows that the <code title="attr-meta-scheme"><a href="#attr-meta-scheme">scheme</a></code> attribute is used with this
   metadata name, then it could take the <code title="attr-meta-scheme"><a href="#attr-meta-scheme">scheme</a></code> attribute into account,
   acting as if it was an extension of the <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute. Thus the following
   two <code><a href="#the-meta-element">meta</a></code> elements could be treated as two elements
   giving values for two different metadata names, one consisting of a

   <code title="">null</code> values. (Comparisons using the <code title="">===</code> operator, and
   comparisons to other values such as strings or objects, are unaffected.)</p></li>

   <li><p>The user agent must act such that the <code title="">typeof</code> operator in JavaScript returns the string
   <code title="">undefined</code> when applied to the object returned
   for <code title="dom-document-all"><a href="#dom-document-all">all</a></code>.</p></li>

  </ul>

  <p class="note">These requirements are a <a href="#willful-violation">willful

  requires that the ToBoolean() operator convert all objects to the

  they were <code title="">undefined</code> for the purposes of
  certain operators. This violation is motivated by a desire for
  compatibility with two classes of legacy content: one that uses the

   <dt>Security considerations:</dt>
   <dd>

    <p>Entire novels have been written about the security considerations that apply to HTML
    documents. Many are listed in this document, to which the reader is referred for more details.
    Some general concerns bear mentioning here, however:</p>

    <p>HTML is scripted language, and has a large number of APIs (some of which are described in
    this document). Script can expose the user to potential risks of information leakage, credential
    leakage, cross-site scripting attacks, cross-site request forgeries, and a host of other
    problems. While the designs in this specification are intended to be safe if implemented
    correctly, a full implementation is a massive undertaking and, as with any software, user agents
    are likely to have security bugs.</p>

    <p>Even without scripting, there are specific features in HTML which, for historical reasons,
    are required for broad compatibility with legacy content but that expose the user to unfortunate
    security problems. In particular, the <code><a href="#the-img-element">img</a></code> element can be used in conjunction with
    some other features as a way to effect a port scan from the user's location on the Internet.
    This can expose local network topologies that the attacker would otherwise not be able to
    determine.</p>

    <p>HTML relies on a compartmentalization scheme sometimes known as the <i>same-origin
    policy</i>. An <a href="#origin-0">origin</a> in most cases consists of all the pages served from the same
    host, on the same port, using the same protocol.</p>

    <p>It is critical, therefore, to ensure that any untrusted content that forms part of a site be
    hosted on a different <a href="#origin-0">origin</a> than any sensitive content on that site. Untrusted
    content can easily spoof any other page on the same origin, read data from that origin, cause
    scripts in that origin to execute, submit forms to and from that origin even if they are
    protected from cross-site request forgery attacks by unique tokens, and make use of any
    third-party resources exposed to or rights granted to that origin.</p>

  <p>† Categories in the "Parents" column refer to parents that list the given categories in
  their content model, not to elements that themselves are in those categories. For example, the
  <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element's "Parents" column says "phrasing", so any element whose content model
  contains the "phrasing" category could be a parent of an <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element. Since the "flow"
  category includes all the "phrasing" elements, that means the <code><a href="#the-th-element">th</a></code> element could be a
  parent to an <code><a href="#the-a-element">a</a></code> element.</p>

  </p><p>Special thanks to Richard Williamson for creating the first
  implementation of <code><a href="#the-canvas-element">canvas</a></code> in Safari, from which the
  canvas feature was designed.</p>

  <p>Special thanks also to the Microsoft employees who first
  implemented the event-based drag-and-drop mechanism, <code title="attr-contenteditable"><a href="#attr-contenteditable">contenteditable</a></code>, and other

  <p>Special thanks and $10,000 to David Hyatt who came up with a
  broken implementation of the <a href="#adoptionAgency">adoption
  agency algorithm</a> that the editor had to reverse engineer and fix
  before using it in the parsing section.</p>

          sound.play();
        }
 v2  * a fairly common situation for web authors is to have two lists, where
       the contents of the second depends on the value of the first. Is there
       any way we could extend the current model to include this functionality?
       (e.g. bugzilla product/component ui)
 v2  * quick-searchable select
 v2  * include/exclude selectors (two multi-select columns with arrows to
       move selected items) and that sort of thing.
       http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=110240&cid=9357022
 v2  * Oh, and forms need a standardized Help widget/icon. I know I can
       turn my cursor into a question mark, but I'm looking for something
       simple and pervasive. Maybe you can wrap fields in a help tag, just
       as you do for fieldsets. And in that help tag, attributes are
       available that allow for a nice, formatted, clean, full help text
       popup/area/thing.

 v2  * Validating only part of a form. - Anja Lehmann
 v2  * Reminder to add a way to expose access keys in buttons, i.e.
       Sub&mit where & signifies the m is the access key to use. Possibly
       automatic? <input accesskey="m" value="Submit"> browser would be
       smart enough to underline the first instance of the access key if
       it exists (case insensitive)? - kerz
       [or deprecate the lot (->web apps)]
 v2  * need an attribute that says "the children of this element are in
       their own tabbing universe, tabindex should be relative to each
       other, not to the document"
       -> web apps?
 v2  * make select widgets have multiple columns
       or ->web apps with list view
 v2  * required as a group (one of the following must be available):
       + i propose something like the following:
           <input type="text" group="contact" name="voicephone"> Voice phone
           <input type="text" group="contact" name="fax"> Fax
           <input type="text" group="contact" name="mobile"> Mobile phone
           <input type="text" group="contact" name="email"> E-mail
         if the user fills out none of the form fields in the "contact"
         group, an error message is shown and the form is not submitted.
         - Peter-Paul Koch
 v2  * formatting of number fields, text fields, etc, so that when the
       field is not focused, the value is displayed differently. Seems
       like this would also be useful e.g. for <output> or something so
       you can display localised dates, etc.
 v2  * being able to select date range (from day x to day y)
 v2  * ways of visualizing a linefeed in a <textarea> so it looks different
       from wrapping text
 v2  * all login systems have
         1. enter username and password
         2. create new account
         3. lost password
       some way of integrating this into one system, since it's so common
 v2  * way of identifying different sorts of mailadresses
         a) mailing-list
         b) person
         c) department in a company ("support", "marketing" and such)
         d) general mail (like "info", "mail", "contact" and such)
         e) other sorts of groupings
       (or ->web apps; this is talking about in mailto: links, I think)
 v2  * hotswapping login identities like in windows xp
         you are logged in on operamail.com, and you want to check the mail
         of another user. somehow, combined with the wand or whatever,
         the browser will remember the login page, and it can re-submit it
         without having to load the initial page (saving time)
 v2  * provide different measuring systems, like having the html indicate
       fluid in both fluid ounces and liters, and the browser can display
       one or the other based on regional settings in the browser or ui,
       display conversions in a tooltip, or let the user decide which
       format to display.
 v2  * indicate "x days ago" or "y days into the future" rather than date
 v2  * input control for anniversaries
 v2  * only submit fields that have changed, or a way to include in the
       submission a list of which form controls were changed from their
       default value
 v2  * type="time" value="now"
 v2  * add something to type="number" to support basic currency and unit
       formatting of input
 v2  * <fieldset enabled-if-checked="myCheckboxOrRadioButton">
       ...to allow sections to only be enabled if a radio button makes it
       relevant, for instance.
 v2  * Yan Morin proposed a multi-column dropdown <select> or <datalist>:
         _________________
        |_New_York______|V|_________________  <- input  with a table link and a down arrow
        |_City__________|_State_|_Country_|_| <- header of the table
        | Montreal      |  QC   | Canada  |A| <- top arrow of the scroll
        |>New York     <|  NY   | US      | | <- selected row
        | Washington    |  DC   | US      |X| <- cursor scroll
        | San Francisco |  CA   | US      | |
        |_Toronto_______|__ON___|_Canada__|V| <- bottom arrow of the scroll

 v2  * add for="" attribute to <input type="password"> so that you can
       link usernames and passwords. (Jonas Sicking)
 v2  * value for unchecked checkbox?
 v2  * A way to specify the default button - Michael Gratton
 v2  * <fieldset readonly>?
 v2  * dolphinling suggests having a way to mark certain parts of a
       form as being dependent on another (mutually exclusive parts of
       a form)
 v2  * expose the form data set, either as an object (on which one can
       invoke the JSON serialiser), or in the form of a method on
       HTMLFormElement that returns the form data set serialised
       according to a particular encoding (defaulting to the form's
       enctype="" one, probably). This would allow forms to be used
       with XHR-like systems without having to manually construct the
       form data set the way that is done today.
 v2  * expose the file upload progress when uploading files in a form
       (ideally using the same mechanism as XHR2?); ack Rob Evans

Consistency in editorial style:
 v2  * need to become consistent about whether or not to quote keyword
       ("<code title="">foo</code>" vs <code>foo</code>)
 v2  * make the spec consistent about whether the word "algorithm" is part of
       an algorithm's name or not ("</dfn> algorithm", "</span> algorithm")
 v2  * make the spec more consistent about its use of "hexadecimal"
       and "base-sixteen", the order that 0-9 A-Z a-z is mentioned,
       and the detail to which the spec explains how to interpret a
       string as a hexadecimal number.
 v2  * become more consistent about what markup we use to mark up
       productions (nothing? <i>? <code>?)
 v2  * use <code>Document</code> consistently instead of 'document'.
 v2  * be clearer about arrays/lists/collections being zero-based
       despite using the term "/index/th".
 v2  * use the sample widgets:
          <li><img alt="A text field with editable sections for each
          value, with a button to pop up a dialog showing a calendar or
          clock." src="sample-datetime-ui-2"></li>
          <li><img alt="A calendar grid with a clock in the upper right
          hand corner." src="sample-datetime-ui-3"></li>
