... assuming you have an entity called somebutton.label defined in mainwindow.dtd, you can access the entity like this: <button id="somebutton" label="&somebutton.label"> multiple dtds if you want to use multiple dtds with your xul file, you can simply list all of the dtds inside your dtd declaration: <!doctype window [ <!entity % commondtd system "chrome://myextensions/locale/common.dtd"> %commondtd; <!entity % mainwindowdtd system "chrome://myextension/locale/mainwindow.dtd"> %mainwindowdtd; ]> you can now access the entities declared in the dtds as shown above.

Primitive - MDN Web Docs Glossary: Definitions of Web-related terms
it correctly finds our variable instantiated with our first statement after finding it, the expression is evaluated, foo is replaced by 5 and the javascript engine passes that value to the functions as an argument before executing the statements inside the functions' bodies, javascript takes a copy of the originally passed argument (which is a primitive) and creates a local copy.
... these copies, existing only inside the functions' scopes, are accessible via the identifiers we specified in the functions' definitions (num for addtwo, foo for addtwo_v2) then, the functions' statements are executed: in the first function, a local num variable had been created.
... in the second function, a local foo variable had been created.
...the local foo hides the external foo.

Flexbox - Learn web development
to get started, you should make a local copy of the first starter file — flexbox0.html from our github repo — load it in a modern browser (like firefox or chrome), and have a look at the code in your code editor.
...have a look at our flexbox-wrap0.html example, and try viewing it live (take a local copy of this file now if you want to follow along with this example): here we see that the children are indeed breaking out of their container.
...fire up your local copy of flexbox0.html, or take a copy of flexbox1.html as a new starting point (see it live).
... first, take a local copy of this example.

Practical positioning examples - Learn web development
to start with, we'd like you to make a local copy of the starting html file — info-box-start.html.
... save this somewhere sensible on your local computer, and open it up in your text editor.
... as a starting point, you can use your completed example from the first section of the article, or make a local copy of info-box.html from our github repo.

Sending form data - Learn web development
note: this example won't work when you load it into a browser locally — browsers cannnot interpret php code, so when the form is submitted the browser will just offer to download the php file for you.
...good options for local php testing are mamp (mac and windows) and ampps (mac, windows, linux).
...python works a bit differently to php — to run this code locally you'll need to install python/pip, then install flask using pip3 install flask.
... at this point you should be able to run the example using python3 python-example.py, then navigating to localhost:5000 in your browser.

Choosing the right approach - Learn web development
single delayed operation repeating operation multiple sequential operations multiple simultaneous operations no yes no (unless it is the same one) no code example the following function creates a new date() object, extracts a time string out of it using tolocaletimestring(), and then displays it in the ui.
... we then run it once per second using setinterval(), creating the effect of a digital clock that updates once per second (see this live, and also see the source): function displaytime() { let date = new date(); let time = date.tolocaletimestring(); document.getelementbyid('demo').textcontent = time; } const createclock = setinterval(displaytime, 1000); pitfalls the frame rate isn't optimized for the system the animation is running on, and can be somewhat inefficient.
...for example: remotedb.alldocs({ include_docs: true, attachments: true }).then(function (result) { let docs = result.rows; docs.foreach(function(element) { localdb.put(element.doc).then(function(response) { alert("pulled doc with id " + element.doc._id + " and added to local db."); }).catch(function (err) { if (err.name == 'conflict') { localdb.get(element.doc._id).then(function (resp) { localdb.remove(resp._id, resp._rev).then(function (resp) { // et cetera...
... it is better to use the chaining power of promises to go with a flatter, easier to parse structure: remotedb.alldocs(...).then(function (resultofalldocs) { return localdb.put(...); }).then(function (resultofput) { return localdb.get(...); }).then(function (resultofget) { return localdb.put(...); }).catch(function (err) { console.log(err); }); or even: remotedb.alldocs(...) .then(resultofalldocs => { return localdb.put(...); }) .then(resultofput => { return localdb.get(...); }) .then(resultofget => { return localdb.put(...); }) .catch(err => console.log(err)); that covers a lot of the basics.

we'll discover a little bit of detail about its background and use cases, set up a basic react toolchain on our local computer, and create and play with a simple starter app, learning a bit about how react works in the process.
...getting started with ember in our first ember article we will look at how ember works and what it's useful for, install the ember toolchain locally, create a sample app, and then do some initial setup to get it ready for development.
...in this article, we'll look at a little bit of vue background, learn how to install it and create a new project, study the high-level structure of the whole project and an individual component, see how to run the project locally, and get it prepared to start building our example.
...then we will learn how to setup our development environment, create a sample app, understand the structure of the project, and see how to run it locally and build it for production.

Debugging on Mac OS X

...to workaround this problem, remove the quarantine extended attribute from the downloaded nightly: $ xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/nightly.app local builds local builds of mozilla-central do not enable hardened runtime and hence do not have debugging restrictions.

Productization guide
the web services that make up the productization of mozilla software are often specific to a local market.
... for example, a search provider can deliver a very good quality of search results — but only in a specific country or language, and we have to take this into account when considering default search engines for a locale.
... hence there is a need to customize the set of default web services on a per-locale basis in order to ensure a good user experience across all locales.
...this guide will walk you through the steps to successfully productizing your localization.

... idbindex has also had new properties added to it to specify if it has a locale specified, and what it is: locale (returns the locale if any, or null if none is specified) and isautolocale (returns true if the index was created with an auto locale, meaning that the platform's default locale is used, false otherwise.) note: this feature is currently hidden behind a flag — to enable it and experiment, go to about:config and enable dom.indexeddb.experimental.

GC Rooting Guide
gc things on the stack js::rooted<t> all gc thing pointers stored on the stack (i.e., local variables and parameters to functions) must use the js::rooted<t> class.
...eference to the template class (gecko uses the template versions): template class typedef js::rooted<js::value> js::rootedvalue js::rooted<jsobject*> js::rootedobject js::rooted<jsstring*> js::rootedstring js::rooted<jsscript*> js::rootedscript js::rooted<jsid> js::rootedid for example, instead of this: jsobject* localobj = js_getobjectofsomesort(cx); you would write this: js::rootedobject localobj(cx, js_getobjectofsomesort(cx)); spidermonkey makes it easy to remember to use js::rooted<t> types instead of a raw pointer because all of the api methods that may gc take a js::handle<t>, as described below, and js::rooted<t> autoconverts to js::handle<t> but a bare pointer does not.
... summary use js::rooted<t> typedefs for local variables on the stack.

Invariants
background: the fastest instructions for nameexpressions are fat opcodes that combine a load with additional operations, as in jsop_inclocal or jsop_getlocalprop.
... failing that, jsop_{get,call,set}local and jsop_{get,call,set}arg are the fastest, followed by jsop_{get,call}upvar, jsop_{get,call}dslot, jsop_{get,call,set}gvar, and lastly jsop_{,call,set}name.
...some nameexpressions might refer to a variable or global; or might at runtime turn out to reference another object property, due to with, or a variable that isn't in the source code at all but was injected into a local scope by eval.

SpiderMonkey Internals
these messages can be localized at compile time by replacing the .msg file; or, with a little modification to the source, at run time.
...these interfaces are named in a way that makes local vs.
...to make matters worse, java (and therefore javascript) uses "local" time numbers (offsets from the epoch) in its date class.

JS_ClearNewbornRoots
these newborn roots help native code protect newly-created gc-things from gc invocations activated before those things can be rooted using local or global roots.
...see js_enterlocalrootscope for a better way to manage newborns in cases where native hooks (functions, getters, setters, etc.) create many gc-things, potentially without connecting them to predefined local roots such as *rval or argv[i] in an active jsnative function.
... using js_enterlocalrootscope disables updating of the context's per-gc-thing-type newborn roots, until control flow unwinds and leaves the outermost nesting local root scope.

SpiderMonkey 1.8.7
the approach eliminates the need for the js_enterlocalrootscope api, and in many cases the need to explicitly root gc things or use the "root as you go" approach popular with earlier spidermonkey releases.
... jsautorequest jsautosuspendrequest jsautocheckrequest jsautoentercompartment js::anchor<> js::call obsolete apis js_clearnewbornroots js_enterlocalrootscope js_leavelocalrootscope js_leavelocalrootscopewithresult js_forgetlocalroot js_newgrowablestring deleted apis js_getscopechain use js_getglobalforscopechain api changes operation callback js_setoperationcallback was introduced in js 1.8.0, replacing the branch callback, in anticipation of the addition of the tracing jit (tracemonkey).
... a conservative stack-scanning collector was also added for spidermonkey 1.8.5, making the *localrootscope apis obsolete; they are now nops.
