Overview of events and handlers - Developer guides
event triggers include the completion of the loading of a resource on the network e.g., downloads an image that can now be drawn on the screen, the completion of parsing a resource by the browser e.g., processes the html content of a page, the inter
action of a user with the contents of the page e.g., clicks a button.
...the innovation of the dynamic approach allows for a page to be partially rendered even when the browser has not finished retrieving all resources; this approach also allows for event driven
actions, which javascript leverages.
... this code relies on the agreement that there is a kind of event called 'click' which will call any listener (or 'handler') function with an event object argument (actually, in this case a derivative mouseevent object) and which will be fired by html button elements after user inter

you can then take
action based on this value, as any data or
actions originating from this window should be considered private.
...if some
action triggered by a chrome element (such as a button) requires an api that takes a privacy context, the most relevant window is the one that contains the chrome element.
... in some cases, there is no logical window object to use (such as when data or an

Event Handlers - Archive of obsolete content
the most basic handler specifies the event to listen for and an
action to take when the handler fires.
... this
action can be specified either using an
action attribute or by specifying the script as a child of the handler element.
...this means that <handler event="click"
action="foo()"/> is analogous to onclick="foo()" defined on the bound element.
...since xbl handlers usually constitute the default
actions for a widget, this allows authors in the bound document to write events that potentially suppress the default
actions taken by the xbl handlers.
A XUL Bestiary - Archive of obsolete content
events are messages that are sent from an object when that object performs some
action.
...documents will load, buttons will be clicked, and links will be hovered over, and events will be raised for all these
actions behind closed doors.
... if, however, you write event handlers inside event listeners, as we will describe shortly, you can use these events to set off other
actions.
... this using of events to prompt other, more explicit
actions is loosely what is meant by an event model.
Menus - Archive of obsolete content
this is the manner in which an
action can be associated with the menuitem.
... for instance, the
action associated with a open menuitem might be to open a file picker to select a file to open.
... <menuitem label="open" accesskey="o" oncommand="alert('open a file!');"/> another way to associate an
action with a menu item is to use a command element.
...this is useful when you wish to have several elements performing the same
action, for example a menuitem on a menubar, a context menu, and a toolbar button, because you can place the code to execute only once on the command and hook each element up to the command.
OpenClose - Archive of obsolete content
when an menu item is selected, it fires a command event so that code may be used to perform an
action.
...there isn't a means of replicating this
action with the keyboard, so you should always provide an alternate means of accessing the functionality of the menu.
... popups attached using the context attribute are opened when the user performs an
action that attempts to open a context menu.
... this
action will vary on each platform, but it general it involves clicking on the element with the right mouse button.
Building Menus With Templates - Archive of obsolete content
here is an example using an xml source: <button type="menu" datasources="people.xml" ref="*" querytype="xml"> <template> <query expr="person"/> <
action> <menupopup> <menuitem uri="?" label="?name"/> </menupopup> </
action> </template> </button> <button label="children" oncommand="alert(this.previoussibling.childnodes.length);"/> in this example, the datasources attribute has been placed on a menu-type button.
... the query generates a list of the person tags within the datasource and outputs the
action body for each one.
... the uri attribute has not been placed on the menupopup element which is the direct child of the
action element but has instead been placed on the menuitem element.
...you might be wondering why we couldn't just put the datasources attribute on the menupopup instead and not have a menupopup inside the
action body.

action> <vbox uri="?" class="indent"> <label value="?name"/> </vbox> </
action> </template> </groupbox> in this simplified example, the xpath expression just gets the list of child elements of the reference node.
...the content of the
action body is again generated for each result, but instead of being inserted inside the outermost groupbox, this new content is inserted inside the content generated from the previous iteration.
...></vbox> <vbox id="row6" class="indent"><label value="ferdinand magellan"/></vbox> </vbox> <vbox id="row3" container="true" empty="false" class="indent"> <label value="female"/> <vbox id="row7" class="indent"><label value="cleopatra"/></vbox> <vbox id="row8" class="indent"><label value="laura secord"/></vbox> </vbox> </groupbox> note how similar content corresponding to the
action body is created for both the groups as well as the people.
...<vbox datasources="people.xml" ref="*" querytype="xml"> <template> <query expr="*"> <assign var="?type" expr="local-name(.)"/> </query> <rule> <where subject="?type" rel="equals" value="group"/> <
action> <groupbox uri="?"> <caption label="?name"/> </groupbox> </
action> </rule> <rule> <
action> <label uri="?" value="?name"/> </

action> <hbox uri="?" align="center"> <button label="?name"/> <label value="?gender"/> <label value="?namelength"/> <label value="?siblings"/> </hbox> </
action> </template> </vbox> two assign elements are placed as children of the query element.
... it allows us to declare additional variables that may be used in the
action body.
...the two variable assignments may then be used in the
action body to replace attributes in the generated content.
... if a variable is used in the
action that doesn't correspond to one declared in an assign element, the default behaviour is to take the corresponding attribute on the result node.

action> </trigger> <trigger> <label>remove current item</label> <delete ev:event="domactivate" nodeset="/my:lines/my:line" ...
...to accommodate this, xforms 1.0 defines an alternative syntax that is functionally equivalent to the repeat element, using the following attributes: repeat-model repeat-bind repeat-nodeset repeat-startindex repeat-number additionally, when using xforms
action setindex, its repeat attribute (which contains an idref) can point to any element carrying these repeat attributes.
Introduction to game development for the Web - Game development
we're talking about kick-ass 3d
action shooters, rpgs, and more.
...here's a thorough list to give you a taste of what the web can do for you: full screen api this simple api lets your game take over the entire screen, thereby immersing the player in
action.
... pointer lock api the pointer lock api lets you lock the mouse or other pointing device within your game's interface so that instead of absolute cursor positioning you receive coordinate deltas that give you more precise measurements of what the user is doing, and prevent the user from accidentally sending their input somewhere else, thereby missing important
action.
...perfect for multiplayer gaming
action, chat services, and so forth.
Mobile touch controls - Game development
phaser starts two pointers by default, so two fingers can perform an
action at once.
... this approach uses the generally available this.game.input object, but you can also detect the
actions on any game objects like sprites or buttons by using oninputover, oninputout, oninputdown, oninputup, ondragstart, or ondragstop: this.button.events.oninputover.add(itemtouched, this); function itemtouched(button, pointer) { // do something } that way you'll be able to attach an event to any object in the game, like the player's ship, and react to the
actions performed by the user.
... for the actual gameplay, instead of creating more buttons and covering the small mobile screen with them, we can use something a little bit different: we'll create invisible areas which respond to the given
action.
...you can assign functions on input down and input up separately if you'd like to perform more complicated
actions, but in this game touching the right side of the screen will simply fire the bullets to the right — this is all we need in this case.
CSS values and units - Learn web development
<number> a <number> represents a decimal number — it may or may not have a decimal point with a fr
actional component, for example 0.255, 128, or -1.2.
... <percentage> a <percentage> represents a fr
action of some other value, for example 50%.
...to see this in

...we've already seen functions in

such a website is the best way to aggregate all the stuff we want to publish in a single place (good for goals 3, 5, and 6) and promote inter
action between us and the public (good for goals 2 and 4).
... now that you know what you want to accomplish, it's time to turn those goals into
actionable steps.
... second, setting out
actionable steps leads to new questions you'll need to answer.
...break down big tasks into small,
actionable steps.
Graceful asynchronous programming with Promises - Learn web development
previous overview: asynchronous next promises are a comparatively new feature of the javascript language that allow you to defer further
actions until after a previous
action has completed, or respond to its failure.
...we're able to chain multiple asynchronous
actions to occur one after another this way because each .then() block returns a new promise that resolves when the .then() block is done running.
...add this now: let errorcase = promise3.catch(e => { console.log('there has been a problem with your fetch operation: ' + e.message); }); to see this in
action, try misspelling the url to the image and reloading the page.
... let's build another example to show this in
action.
Introduction to events - Learn web development
previous overview: building blocks next events are
actions or occurrences that happen in the system you are programming, which the system tells you about so you can respond to them in some way if desired.
... for example, if the user selects a button on a webpage, you might want to respond to that
action by displaying an information box.
... a series of fortunate events as mentioned above, events are
actions or occurrences that happen in the system you are programming — the system produces (or "fires") a signal of some kind when an event occurs, and provides a mechanism by which an
action can be automatically taken (that is, some code running) when the event occurs.
...plus, this allows you to have the same button performing different
actions in different circumstances — all you have to do is add or remove event handlers as appropriate.
Perceived performance - Learn web development
perceived performance the perception of how fast your site loads and how responsive feels to user inter
action is vitally important; even more important that actual download time but difficult to quantify.
...for this, time to interactive, is a good metric; it is the moment when the last long task of the load process finishes and the ui is available for user inter
action with delay.
... improving perceived performance understanding networking, how the browser works, user perception of time, etc., can help you better understand how to improve the user inter
action.
...content reflowing is especially bad for user experience when not initiated by user inter
action.
Introduction to the server side - Learn web development
it can even allow inter

Accessibility/LiveRegionDevGuide
filtering user
actions this paragraph describes object properties and event naming schemes that are used to help an at determine if an event is an actual live region event or is the result of user
action.
...these "non-live" events may be events originating from the chrome, user inter
action in the chrome or document, document loading events, or real live region events from hidden tabs.
...the following is a list of potential filtering techniques: the "event-from-input" object attribute can be used to filter events that were triggered by user
action.
...the following describes
actions that should be taken for an event with the given politeness level: off: no
action should be taken.
Accessibility information for UI designers and developers

Software accessibility: Where are we today?
some examples of these assistive devices and software include: screen reading software, which speaks text displayed on the screen using hardware or software text-to-speech, and which allows a blind person to use the keyboard to simulate mouse
actions alternate input devices, which allow people with physical disabilities to use alternatives to a keyboard and mouse voice recognition software, which allows a person to simulate typing on a keyboard or selecting with a mouse by speaking into the computer screen magnification software, which allows a low-vision computer user to more easily read portions of the screen comprehension software...
...this is due to a simple problem of context - the idea that a user's inter
action with a computer is governed by the situation in which this inter
action takes place.
... when the user types something on the keyboard, or when an application displays text or images on the screen, the exact meaning of these
actions is determined by the context in which they take place.
...similarly, voice recognition software often needs information about the context of a user's inter
action, in order to make sense of what the user is speaking.

actions (for example button labels).
...these are generally not complete sentences, but instead, phrases that convey the idea of a concept or
action.

Touch events - Web APIs
the touch events interfaces are relatively low-level apis that can be used to support application-specific multi-touch inter
actions such as a two-finger gesture.
... a multi-touch inter
action starts when a finger (or stylus) first touches the contact surface.
...the inter
action ends when the fingers are removed from the surface.
... during this inter
action, an application receives touch events during the start, move, and end phases.

Anatomy of a video game - Game development
present, accept, interpret, calculate, repeat the goal of every video game is to present the user(s) with a situation, accept their input, interpret those signals into
actions, and calculate a new situation resulting from those acts.
...these games present two images to the user; they accept their click (or touch); they interpret the input as a success, failure, pause, menu inter
action, etc.; finally, they calculate an updated scene resulting from that input.
... window.cancelanimationframe( mygame.stopmain ); the key to programming a main loop, in javascript, is to attach it to whatever event should be driving your
action and pay attention to how the different systems involved interplay.

... it is the length of time, in milliseconds, between the first user inter
action on a web page and the browser’s response to that inter

Introduction to web APIs - Learn web development
every time you see a popup window appear on a page or some new content displayed, for example, that's the dom in

...tx = canvas.getcontext('2d'); anything that we want to do to the canvas is then achieved by calling properties and methods of the context object (which is an instance of canvasrenderingcontext2d), for example: ball.prototype.draw = function() { ctx.beginpath(); ctx.fillstyle = this.color; ctx.arc(this.x, this.y, this.size, 0, 2 * math.pi); ctx.fill(); }; note: you can see this code in
action in our bouncing balls demo (see it running live also).
... how this would be used: let requesturl = 'https://mdn.github.io/learning-area/javascript/oojs/json/superheroes.json'; let request = new xmlhttprequest(); request.open('get', requesturl); request.responsetype = 'json'; request.send(); request.onload = function() { const superheroes = request.response; populateheader(superheroes); showheroes(superheroes); } note: you can see this code in

Third-party APIs - Learn web development
requiring a key enables the api provider to hold users of the api accountable for their

Introduction to NSPR
however, because of the multiple strategies to provide execution vehicles for threads on various host platforms, priorities are not a clearly defined abstr
action in nspr.

action from taking place, the worker can call the error event's preventdefault() method.
...they are intended to (amongst other things) enable the creation of effective offline experiences, intercepting network requests and taking appropriate
action based on whether the network is available and updated assets reside on the server.
...you have to do it indirectly, by sending a message back to the main script via dedicatedworkerglobalscope.postmessage, then
actioning the changes from there.

XRSession.onselect - Web APIs
the onselect property of the xrsession object is the event handler for the select event, which is dispatched when a primary
action is completed successfully by the user.
... the select event is sent after tracking of the primary
action begins, as announced by the selectstart event, and immediately before the tracking of the primary
action ends, which is announced by the selectend event.

A re-introduction to JavaScript (JS tutorial) - JavaScript
the standard arithmetic operators are supported, including addition, subtr
action, modulus (or remainder) arithmetic, and so forth.
...'yes' : 'no'; the switch statement can be used for multiple branches based on a number or string: switch (
action) { case 'draw': drawit(); break; case 'eat': eatit(); break; default: donothing(); } if you don't add a break statement, execution will "fall through" to the next level.
... closures this leads us to one of the most powerful abstr
actions that javascript has to offer — but also the most potentially confusing.
Using Promises - JavaScript
a catch, which is useful to accomplish new
actions even after an
action failed in the chain.
...by adding a handler for the unhandledrejection event, like this: window.addeventlistener("unhandledrejection", event => { /* you might start here by adding code to examine the promise specified by event.promise and the reason in event.reason */ event.preventdefault(); }, false); by calling the event's preventdefault() method, you tell the javascript runtime not to do its default
action when rejected promises go unhandled.
... that default
action usually involves logging the error to console, and this is indeed the case for node.
BigInt - JavaScript
however, since these are bigints and not bigdecimals, this operation will round towards 0 (which is to say, it will not return any fr
actional digits).
... an operation with a fr
actional result will be truncated when used with a bigint.
...mber and a bigint may be compared as usual: 1n < 2 // ↪ true 2n > 1 // ↪ true 2 > 2 // ↪ false 2n > 2 // ↪ false 2n >= 2 // ↪ true they may be mixed in arrays and sorted: const mixed = [4n, 6, -12n, 10, 4, 0, 0n] // ↪ [4n, 6, -12n, 10, 4, 0, 0n] mixed.sort() // default sorting behavior // ↪ [ -12n, 0, 0n, 10, 4n, 4, 6 ] mixed.sort((a, b) => a - b) // won't work since subtr
action will not work with mixed types // typeerror: can't convert bigint to number // sort with an appropriate numeric comparator mixed.sort((a, b) => (a < b) ?
Intl.DateTimeFormat.prototype.formatToParts() - JavaScript
fr
actionalsecond the string used for the fr
actional seconds, for example "0" or "00" or "000".
... examples datetimeformat outputs localized, opaque strings that cannot be manipulated directly: var date = date.utc(2012, 11, 17, 3, 0, 42); var formatter = new intl.datetimeformat('en-us', { weekday: 'long', year: 'numeric', month: 'numeric', day: 'numeric', hour: 'numeric', minute: 'numeric', second: 'numeric', fr
actionalseconddigits: 3, hour12: true, timezone: 'utc' }); formatter.format(date); // "monday, 12/17/2012, 3:00:42.000 am" however, in many user interfaces there is a desire to customize the formatting of this string.
... }, { type: 'day', value: '17' }, { type: 'literal', value: '/' }, { type: 'year', value: '2012' }, { type: 'literal', value: ', ' }, { type: 'hour', value: '3' }, { type: 'literal', value: ':' }, { type: 'minute', value: '00' }, { type: 'literal', value: ':' }, { type: 'second', value: '42' }, { type: 'fr
actionalsecond', value: '000' }, { type: 'literal', value: ' ' }, { type: 'dayperiod', value: 'am' } ] now the information is available separately and it can be formatted and concatenated again in a customized way.
Math.round() - JavaScript
description if the fr
actional portion of the argument is greater than 0.5, the argument is rounded to the integer with the next higher absolute value.
... if the fr
actional portion is exactly 0.5, the argument is rounded to the next integer in the direction of +∞.
... note that this differs from many languages' round() functions, which often round this case to the next integer away from zero, instead giving a different result in the case of negative numbers with a fr
actional part of exactly 0.5.
Performance fundamentals - Web Performance
users prefer, say, a responsive, smooth app that only processes 1,000 database trans
actions per second, over a choppy, unresponsive app that processes 100,000,000 per second.
...for this inter
action, the responsiveness metric is the time elapsed between the tap and the pixel change.
...the reason is that these don’t have a delay that makes the inter
action with the app appear sluggish.
Example - SVG: Scalable Vector Graphics
</div> <form
action="" onsubmit="return false;"> <p> <label>number of motes:</label> <input id='num_motes' value='5'/> <br/> <label>max.
... velocity:</label> <input id='max_velocity' value='15'/> <br/> <label>attr
action to cursor:</label> <input id='attract_cursor' value='6'/> <br/> <label>repulsion from peers:</label> <input id='repel_peer' value='5'/> <br/> </p> </form> <script type='text/javascript'> <![cdata[ // array of motes var motes; // get the display element.
... mote.prototype.move = function() { // apply attr
action to cursor.
Same-origin policy - Web security
cross-origin network access the same-origin policy controls inter
actions between two different origins, such as when you use xmlhttprequest or an <img> element.
... these inter
actions are typically placed into three categories: cross-origin writes are typically allowed.
...for example, you can read the dimensions of an embedded image, the
actions of an embedded script, or the availability of an embedded resource.
Caching compiled WebAssembly modules - WebAssembly
caching via indexeddb indexeddb is a trans
actional database system that allows you to store and retrieve structured data on the client-side.
... function lookupindatabase(db) { return new promise((resolve, reject) => { var store = db.trans
action([storename]).objectstore(storename); var request = store.get(url); request.onerror = reject.bind(null, `error getting wasm module ${url}`); request.onsuccess = event => { if (request.result) resolve(request.result); else reject(`module ${url} was not found in wasm cache`); } }); } storing and instantiating modules next, we define...
... function storeindatabase(db, module) { var store = db.trans
action([storename], 'readwrite').objectstore(storename); var request = store.put(module, url); request.onerror = err => { console.log(`failed to store in wasm cache: ${err}`) }; request.onsuccess = err => { console.log(`successfully stored ${url} in wasm cache`) }; } using our helper functions with all the promise-based helper functions defined, we can now express the core logic of an indexeddb cache lookup.

action").
actionbutton({ id: "read", label: "read", icon: "./read.png", onclick: function() { console.log(ss.storage.pages); } }); but this isn't going to work, because it empties the array each time the add-on runs (for example, each time firefox is started).
...here's an add-on that adds three buttons to write, read, and delete a value: var ss = require("sdk/simple-storage"); require("sdk/ui/button/

in particular, for a simple button, try the
action button or toggle button apis, and for a more complex widget try the toolbar or sidebar apis.
...you can attach panels to them that open when they're clicked, or you can define a custom click handler to perform some other
action, like opening a web page in a tab.
ui/button/toggle - Archive of obsolete content

Other form controls - Learn web development
previous overview: forms next we now look at the functionality of non-<input> form elements in detail, from other control types such as drop-down lists and multi-line text fields, to other useful form features such as the <output> element (which we saw in
action in the previous article), and progress bars.

you can see the example in
action below (also see it live here, and see the source code): read-only and read-write in a similar manner to :disabled and :enabled, the :read-only and :read-write pseudo-classes target two states that form inputs toggle between.

A first splash into JavaScript - Learn web development
upon looking at this brief, the first thing we can do is to start breaking it down into simple
actionable tasks, in as much of a programmer mindset as possible: generate a random number between 1 and 100.
... first let's look at arithmetic operators, for example: operator name example + addition 6 + 9 - subtr
action 20 - 15 * multiplication 3 * 7 / division 10 / 5 you can also use the + operator to join text strings together (in programming, this is called concatenation).
Inheritance in JavaScript - Learn web development
prototypal inheritance so far we have seen some inheritance in
action — we have seen how prototype chains work, and how members are inherited going up a chain.
... the example below shows the two features in
action: // check the default value console.log(snape.subject) // returns "dark arts" // change the value snape.subject = "balloon animals" // sets _subject to "balloon animals" // check it again and see if it matches the new value console.log(snape.subject) // returns "balloon animals" note: you can find this example on github as es2015-getters-setters.html (see it live also).
Working with JSON - Learn web development
you can see the first one in
action in our heroes-finished-json-parse.html example (see the source code) — this does exactly the same thing as the example we built up earlier, except that we set the xhr to return the raw json text, then used parse() to convert it to an actual javascript object.
...try entering the following lines into your browser's javascript console one by one to see it in
action: let myjson = { "name": "chris", "age": "38" }; myjson let mystring = json.stringify(myjson); mystring here we're creating a javascript object, then checking what it contains, then converting it to a json string using stringify() — saving the return value in a new variable — then checking it again.
Web performance - Learn web development
part of good user experience is ensuring the content is quick to load and responsive to user inter
action.
...these perceptions are impacted by actual page load time, idling, responsiveness to user inter
action, and the smoothness of scrolling and other animations.
Server-side web frameworks - Learn web development
this abstr

actions such as "open this web page", "move over this element on the page", "click this link", "see whether the link opens this url", etc.
... below the block where you define the driver variable (just below the build() line), add the following block — this gets the correct driver sessionid that we need to write data to the job (you can see it
action in the next code block): driver.getsession().then(function (sessionid){ driver.sessionid = sessionid.id_; }); finally, replace the driver.sleep(2000) ...
Deploying our app - Learn web development
the only
action we need to perform is that initial "push".
...also see our cross browser testing module for a bunch of useful testing information remember also that tests are not limited to javascript; tests can be run against the rendered dom, user inter
actions, css, and even how a page looks.
Client-side tooling overview - Learn web development
this stage of the development process is one that you want the least amount of active inter
action with so that once it is configured, it runs mostly automatically, only popping up to say hello if something has gone wrong.
...you'll see this tool in
action and learn more about package managers in general in chapter 3 of this module.

actions if you're not interested in socket-level log information, either because it's not relevant to your bug or because you're debugging something that includes a lot of noise that's hard to parse through, you can do that.
Creating Custom Events That Can Pass Data
for example, if you want firefox to perform an
action whenever something happens (i.e., something other than the standard mouse/keyboard events) and, depending on the data passed along with this event, you want firefox to react differently.

a good foundation of accessibility for people with cognitive impairments includes: delivering content in more than one way, such as by text-to-speech or by video; easily-understood content, such as text written using plain-language standards; focusing attention on important content; minimizing distr
actions, such as unnecessary content or advertisements; consistent webpage layout and navigation; familiar elements, such as underlined links blue when not visited and purple when visited; dividing processes into logical, essential steps with progress indicators; website authentication as easy as possible without compromising security; and making forms easy to complete, such as with clear error mes...

Adding vector graphics to the Web - Learn web development
inlining svg is the only approach that lets you use css inter
actions (like :focus) and css animations on your svg image (even in your regular stylesheet.) you can make svg markup into a hyperlink by wrapping it in an <a> element.
Video and audio content - Learn web development
similarly, in environments where having the audio playing would be a distr
action or disruption (such as in a library or when a partner is trying to sleep), having captions can be very useful.
Asynchronous JavaScript - Learn web development
handling async operations gracefully with promises promises are a comparatively new feature of the javascript language that allow you to defer further
actions until after the previous
action has completed, or respond to its failure.
Ember resources and troubleshooting - Learn web development
more concretely, using mut allows for template-only settings functions to be declared: <checkbox @value={{this.somedata}} @ontoggle={{fn (mut this.somedata) (not this.somedata)}} /> whereas, without mut, a component class would be needed: import component from '@glimmer/component'; import { tracked } from '@glimmer/tracking'; import {
action } from '@ember/object'; export default class example extends component { @tracked somedata = false; @
action setdata(newvalue) { this.somedata = newvalue; } } which would then be called in the template like so: <checkbox @data={{this.somedata}} @onchange={{this.setdata}} /> due to the conciseness of using mut, it may be desireable to reach for it.

Benchmarking
add the following to your mozconfig in order to build with level 2: ac_add_options rustc_opt_level=2 gc poisoning many firefox builds have a diagnostic tool that causes crashes to happen sooner and produce much more
actionable information, but also slow down regular usage substantially.
What to do and what not to do in Bugzilla
loss of function normal regular issue, some loss of functionality under specific circumstances minor minor loss of function, or other problem where easy workaround is present trivial cosmetic problem like misspelled words or misaligned text enhancement request for enhancement the blocker severity should be used very seldomly, because only a fr
action of the hundreds of thousands bugs really block the development of mozilla and these are normally fixed very quickly.
Chrome registration
each line is parsed individually; if the line is parsable the chrome registry takes the
action identified by that line, otherwise the chrome registry ignores that line (and prints a warning message in the runtime error console).
Continuous Integration
when sheriffs see a build or test has been broken, they are empowered to take one of several
actions, including backing out a patch which caused the problem and closing the tree (i.e., preventing any additional commits).
Debugging on Mac OS X
# # note: this scripts

AsyncShutdown.jsm
please make sure that the name respects the following model: "some service: some
action in progress" - for instance "os.file: flushing all pending i/o".
CustomizableUI.jsm
anode is the dom node changed, anextnode the dom node (if any) before which a widget will be inserted, acontainer the actual dom container (could be an overflow panel in case of an overflowable toolbar), and awasremoval is true iff the
action about to happen is the removal of the dom node.

Promise
once you have a reference to a promise, you can call its then() method to execute an
action when the value becomes available, or when an error occurs.
PromiseWorker.jsm
return new promiseworker.meta(abuf, {transfers: [abuf]}); if you want to return an object or an array and transfer only certain parts of this data, it would all have to be return wrapped in this meta object like so: return new promiseworker.meta({ thebuf: abuf, othernontrans: 'this string is not transfered but copied' }, {transfers: [abuf]}); a simple demo showing this in live
action can be found here: github :: promiseworker transfer arraybuffer - worker side rejecting the promise to reject the promise from the worker, simply throw.
WebChannel.jsm
the webchannel.jsm javascript code module provides an abstr

Index - Event reference
events can represent everything from basic user inter
actions to automated notifications of things happening in the rendering model.
Getting Started - Developer guides
alternatively, instead of giving a function name, you can use the javascript technique of defining functions on the fly (called "anonymous functions") to define the
actions that will process the response, like this: httprequest.onreadystatechange = function(){ // process the server response here.
DOM onevent handlers - Developer guides
events are
actions like: being clicked detecting pressed keys getting focus the onevent handler is usually named with the event it reacts to, like onclick, onkeypress, onfocus, etc.

HTML5 - Developer guides
xmlhttprequest level 2 allows fetching asynchronously some parts of the page, allowing it to display dynamic content, varying according to the time and user
actions.
Writing forward-compatible websites - Developer guides
here's an example that works in browsers without html5 support but breaks in a browser supporting html5: <form
action="http://www.example.com"> <input type="submit" value="submit the form" </form> due to the missing > on the input tag.
Developer guides
this makes the application faster and more responsive to user
actions.
disabled - HTML: Hypertext Markup Language
attribute inter
actions the difference between disabled and readonly is that read-only controls can still function and are still focusable, whereas disabled controls can not receive focus and are not submitted with the form and generally do not function as controls until they are enabled.
HTML attribute: multiple - HTML: Hypertext Markup Language
<form method="get"
action="#"> <p> <label for="dwarfs">select the woodsmen you like:</label> <select multiple name="drawfs" id="drawfs"> <option>grumpy@woodworkers.com</option> <option>happy@woodworkers.com</option> <option>sleepy@woodworkers.com</option> <option>bashful@woodworkers.com</option> <option>sneezy@woodworkers.com</option> <option>dopey@woodworkers.com</option> <option>doc@woodwo...
<img>: The Image Embed element - HTML: Hypertext Markup Language

action, view the example on a separate page, so you can actually resize the content area.
<input type="date"> - HTML: Hypertext Markup Language
basic uses of date the simplest use of <input type="date"> involves one <input> combined with its <label>, as seen below: <form
action="https://example.com"> <label> enter your birthday: <input type="date" name="bday"> </label> <p><button>submit</button></p> </form> this html submits the entered date under the key bday to https://example.com — resulting in a url like https://example.com/?bday=1955-06-08.
Connection - HTTP
the connection general header controls whether or not the network connection stays open after the current trans
action finishes.
CSP: sandbox - HTTP
it applies restrictions to a page's
actions including preventing popups, preventing the execution of plugins and scripts, and enforcing a same-origin policy.
Content-Type - HTTP
<form
action="/" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="text" name="description" value="some text"> <input type="file" name="myfile"> <button type="submit">submit</button> </form> the request looks something like this (less interesting headers are omitted here): post /foo http/1.1 content-length: 68137 content-type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------974767299...
NEL - HTTP

X-Frame-Options - HTTP
add this to your server configuration: const helmet = require('helmet'); const app = express(); app.use(helmet.frameguard({
action: 'sameorigin' })); alternatively, you can use frameguard directly: const frameguard = require('frameguard') app.use(frameguard({
action: 'sameorigin' })) specifications specification title rfc 7034 http header field x-frame-options ...
HTTP headers - HTTP
connection management connection controls whether the network connection stays open after the current trans
action finishes.
Redirections in HTTP - HTTP
in this case, the response is a 303 (see other) redirect that links to a page indicating that the
action has been scheduled, and eventually informs about its progress, or allows to cancel it.
A typical HTTP session - HTTP
for example, sending the result of a form: post /contact_form.php http/1.1 host: developer.mozilla.org content-length: 64 content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded name=joe%20user&request=send%20me%20one%20of%20your%20catalogue request methods http defines a set of request methods indicating the desired
action to be performed upon a resource.
200 OK - HTTP
post: the resource describing the result of the
action is transmitted in the message body.
451 Unavailable For Legal Reasons - HTTP
the hypertext transfer protocol (http) 451 unavailable for legal reasons client error response code indicates that the user requested a resource that is not available due to legal reasons, such as a web page for which a legal
action has been issued.
511 Network Authentication Required - HTTP
network operators sometimes require some authentication, acceptance of terms, or other user inter
action before granting access (for example in an internet café or at an airport).
Functions - JavaScript
calling the function actually performs the specified
actions with the indicated parameters.
Grammar and types - JavaScript
floating-point literals a floating-point literal can have the following parts: a decimal integer which can be signed (preceded by "+" or "-"), a decimal point ("."), a fr
action (another decimal number), an exponent.
Indexed collections - JavaScript
// // this is equivalent to: let arr = [] arr.length = 42 calling array(n) results in a rangeerror, if n is a non-whole number whose fr
actional portion is non-zero.
Loops and iteration - JavaScript
console.log('walking east one step'); } there are many different kinds of loops, but they all essentially do the same thing: they repeat an
action some number of times.
JavaScript modules - JavaScript
so for example: /js-examples/modules/basic-modules/modules/square.js becomes ./modules/square.js you can see such lines in
action in main.js.
Regular expressions - JavaScript
</p> <form
action="#"> <input id="phone"> <button onclick="testinfo(document.getelementbyid('phone'));">check</button> </form> javascript var re = /(?:\d{3}|\(\d{3}\))([-\/\.])\d{3}\1\d{4}/; function testinfo(phoneinput) { var ok = re.exec(phoneinput.value); if (!ok) { console.error(phoneinput.value + ' isn\'t a phone number with area code!'); } else { console.log('thanks, your phone number i...
Text formatting - JavaScript
const gasprice = new intl.numberformat('en-us', { style: 'currency', currency: 'usd', minimumfr
actiondigits: 3 }); console.log(gasprice.format(5.259)); // $5.259 const handecimalrmbinchina = new intl.numberformat('zh-cn-u-nu-hanidec', { style: 'currency', currency: 'cny' }); console.log(handecimalrmbinchina.format(1314.25)); // ¥ 一,三一四.二五 collation the collator object is useful for comparing and sorting strings.

WeakRef - JavaScript
notes on weakrefs some notes on weakrefs: if your code has just created a weakref for a target object, or has gotten a target object from a weakref's deref method, that target object will not be reclaimed until the end of the current javascript job (including any promise re
action jobs that run at the end of a script job).
