Very often a technology gets popular with something it wasn't originally designed for, thereby sometimes defeating a technology that is designed and better fit...
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XBL I asked for the category to be created and then with a simple account added some stuff myself, please also add your...
Imagine you have built an application with XBL cause that is a great clean way of working with you data. While using the application you at some stage get such...
Hi Ruud. ... I've wondered before whether an implementation of sXBL in script would be viable (to get more people to try using it in UAs other than Batik), but...
... Interesting. If I'm reading the definition of "shadow tree" correctly, I consider it one of the *advantages* of XBLinJS that it uses *real* nodes and not...
Hi, Jeremy- As I understand it, the advantage of shadow-trees is in their direct connection with the source elements, in terms of structure, semantics, and ...
Hi, Ruud- ... I think this is a perfectly valid use case, though I certainly can't speak for the MozXBL guys, nor can I suggest a workaround (other than...
... Ah, yes, that makes sense. One of my basic objections about the way this stuff is being engineered is that everything you mentioned is dependent upon being...
... In a word, encapsulation. Having the shadow nodes inside a shadow tree that is connected to the element, and not in the real DOM, affords some level of...
... Cameron, Not completely sure about that. I do agree that it would probably be fairly inefficient, but I'm not sure that a Javascript shadow tree ...
Re: shadow nodes and event binding I think that the only things that you wouldn't be able to do with a Javascript implementation of an XBL would be obscuring...
What if there was a central requirement that the shadow tree 1) had to be contained within the element, 2) had to be in a namespace with a different prefix...
... I added the xmlns declaration to your first svg tag, because I think you need it and I need it for my point. This won't work. The 'abbreviation' of the...
... Yeah, it seems a bit dodgy somehow to rely on the prefix that was used (especially since the element may have been created in a namespace but without a...
Workaround, to get representational snapshot, within MozXBL1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks for that answer Doug. Here's...
http://steltenpower.com/xbl/xbl1.xml call "view source" use the DOM inspector then call javascript:viewShadowSource(); and in the new window call "view...
Hi, started a page at http://www.svgx.org with the following quote: "sXBL works much like XSLT. More specifically, it works like a special kind of XSLT...
What is the best way forward for the purist/clean sXBL/XBL? regardless of any browser affiliation:) Also the impact/best practices/thoughts on CSS3 and E4X...
To bring in more use cases I'm thinking w3schools.com style: MozXBL1: Say you have 3 editable TEXTAREA's (data, CSS, XBL) plus the result. feel welcome to...

A binding that I am developing has various properties. Some of the properties have side effects when setting them like the disabled property for html:form...
"What (do you think) is XBL for?" A very good question. The way I found XBL in the first place was by answering this question in reverse. I knew exactly what I...
