Description

The GdomeElement interface represents an element in an HTML or XML document. Elements may have attributes associated with them; since the GdomeElement interface inherits from GdomeNode, the generic GdomeNode interface method gdome_el_attributes() may be used to retrieve the set of all attributes for an element. There are methods on the GdomeElement interface to retrieve either an GdomeAttr object by name or an attribute value by name. In XML, where an attribute value may contain entity references, an GdomeAttr object should be retrieved to examine the possibly fairly complex sub-tree representing the attribute value. On the other hand, in HTML, where all attributes have simple string values, methods to directly access an attribute value can safely be used as a convenience.

Details

struct GdomeElement

struct GdomeElement {
	gpointer user_data;
};


gdome_el_tagName ()

GdomeDOMString* gdome_el_tagName            (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

self : Element Objects ref
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : the qualified name of the element.


gdome_el_getAttribute ()

GdomeDOMString* gdome_el_getAttribute       (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *name,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Retrieves an attribute value by name.

self : Element Objects ref
name : The name of attribute of which the value is wanted
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : the Attr value as a string, or the empty string if that attribute does not have a specified or default value.


gdome_el_setAttribute ()

void        gdome_el_setAttribute           (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *name,
                                             GdomeDOMString *value,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, its value is changed to be that of the value parameter.

GDOME_NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.

self : Element Objects ref
name : The name of the attribute to create or alter
value : Value to set in string form
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_removeAttribute ()

void        gdome_el_removeAttribute        (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *name,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Removes an attribute by name. If the removed attribute is known to have a default value, an attribute immediately appears containing the default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable. To remove an attribute by local name and namespace URI, use the gdome_el_removeAttributeNS() function.

GDOME_NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.

self : Element Objects ref
name : The name of the attribute to remove
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_getAttributeNode ()

GdomeAttr*  gdome_el_getAttributeNode       (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *name,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Retrieves an attribute node by name. To retrieve an attribute node by qualified name and namespace URI, use the gdome_el_getAttributeNodeNS() method.

self : Element Objects ref
name : The name of the attribute to retreive
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : the Attr node with the specified name or NULL if there is no such attribute.


gdome_el_setAttributeNode ()

GdomeAttr*  gdome_el_setAttributeNode       (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeAttr *newAttr,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Adds a new attribute node. If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one. To add a new attribute node with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the gdome_el_setAttributeNodeNS() method.

GDOME_WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newAttr was created from a different document than the one that created the element. GDOME_NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly. GDOME_INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if newAttr is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.

self : Element Object ref
newAttr : The Attr node to add to the attribute list
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : if the newAttr attribute replaces an existing attribute, the replaced Attr node is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.

GDOME_NAMESPACE_ERR: Raised if the specified prefix is malformed per the Namespaces in XML specification, if the namespaceURI of this node is NULL, if the specified prefix is "xml" and the namespaceURI of this node is different from "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace", if this node is an attribute and the specified prefix is "xmlns" and the namespaceURI of this node is different from "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/", or if this node is an attribute and the qualifiedName of this node is "xmlns".

self : Node Object ref
prefix : The new prefix for this node.
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_localName ()

GdomeDOMString* gdome_el_localName          (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

self : Node Objects ref
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : the local part of the qualified name of this node. For nodes of any type other than GDOME_ELEMENT_NODE and GDOME_ATTRIBUTE_NODE and nodes created with a DOM Level 1 method, this is always NULL.


gdome_el_hasAttributes ()

GdomeBoolean gdome_el_hasAttributes         (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

self : Node Object ref
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : TRUE if this node has any attributes, FALSE otherwise.


gdome_el_addEventListener ()

void        gdome_el_addEventListener       (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *type,
                                             GdomeEventListener *listener,
                                             GdomeBoolean useCapture,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

This method allows the registration of event listeners on the event target. If an EventListener is added to an EventTarget while it is processing an event, it will not be triggered by the current actions but may be triggered during a later stage of event flow, such as the bubbling phase. If multiple identical EventListeners are registered on the same EventTarget with the same parameters the duplicate instances are discarded. They do not cause the EventListener to be called twice and since they are discarded they do not need to be removed with the removeEventListener method.

self : Node Object ref
type : the event type for which the user is registering
listener : the listener parameter takes an interface implemented by the user which contains the methods to be called when the event occurs.
useCapture : if TRUE, useCapture indicates that the user wishes to initiate capture. After initiating capture, all events of the specified type will be dispatched to the registered EventListener before being dispatched to any EventTargets beneath them in the tree. Events which are bubbling upward through the tree will not trigger an EventListener designated to use capture.
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_removeEventListener ()

void        gdome_el_removeEventListener    (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeDOMString *type,
                                             GdomeEventListener *listener,
                                             GdomeBoolean useCapture,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

This method allows the removal of event listeners from the event target. If an EventListener is removed from an EventTarget while it is processing an event, it will not be triggered by the current actions. EventListeners can never be invoked after being removed. Calling removeEventListener with arguments which do not identify any currently registered EventListener on the EventTarget has no effect.

self : Node Object ref
type : Specifies the event type of the EventListener being removed.
listener : The EventListener parameter indicates the EventListener to be removed.
useCapture : Specifies whether the EventListener being removed was registered as a capturing listener or not. If a listener was registered twice, one with capture and one without, each must be removed separately. Removal of a capturing listener does not affect a non-capturing version of the same listener, and vice versa.
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_dispatchEvent ()

GdomeBoolean gdome_el_dispatchEvent         (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeEvent *evt,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

This method allows the dispatch of events into the implementations event model. Events dispatched in this manner will have the same capturing and bubbling behavior as events dispatched directly by the implementation. The target of the event is the EventTarget on which dispatchEvent is called.

GDOME_UNSPECIFIED_EVENT_TYPE_ERR: Raised if the Event's type was not specified by initializing the event before dispatchEvent was called. Specification of the Event's type as NULL or an empty string will also trigger this exception.

self : Node Object ref
evt : Specifies the event type, behavior, and contextual information to be used in processing the event.
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : if preventDefault was called the value is FALSE, else the value is TRUE.


gdome_el_subTreeDispatchEvent ()

void        gdome_el_subTreeDispatchEvent   (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeEvent *evt,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

This method allows the dispatch of events into the implementations event model. Events dispatched in this manner will have the same capturing and bubbling behavior as events dispatched directly by the implementation. The target of the event is any nodes in the subtree of the EventTarget on which dispatchEvent is called.

GDOME_UNSPECIFIED_EVENT_TYPE_ERR: Raised if the Event's type was not specified by initializing the event before dispatchEvent was called. Specification of the Event's type as NULL or an empty string will also trigger this exception.

self : Node Object ref
evt : Specifies the event type, behavior, and contextual information to be used in processing the event.
exc : Exception Object ref


gdome_el_canAppend ()

GdomeBoolean gdome_el_canAppend             (GdomeElement *self,
                                             GdomeNode *newChild,
                                             GdomeException *exc);

Tests if a newChild can be added in the child list of this node.

self : Node Object ref
newChild : The Node Object ref of the node to test
exc : Exception Object ref
Returns : TRUE if newChild can be added, FALSE otherwise.
