As the parser identifies valid * elements, it calls the contentsink interface to notify * the content model that a new node or child node is being * created and added to the content model. * * The HTMLContentSink interface assumes 4 underlying * containers: HTML, HEAD, BODY and FRAMESET. Before * accessing any these, the parser will call the appropriate * OpennsIHTMLContentSink method: OpenHTML,OpenHead,OpenBody,OpenFrameSet; * likewise, the ClosensIHTMLContentSink version will be called when the * parser is done with a given section. * * IMPORTANT: The parser may Open each container more than * once! This is due to the irregular nature of HTML files. * For example, it is possible to encounter plain text at * the start of an HTML document (that precedes the HTML tag). * Such text is treated as if it were part of the body. * In such cases, the parser will Open the body, pass the text- * node in and then Close the body. The body will likely be * re-Opened later when the actual tag has been seen. * * Containers within the body are Opened and Closed * using the OpenContainer(...) and CloseContainer(...) calls. * It is assumed that the document or contentSink is * maintaining its state to manage where new content should * be added to the underlying document. * * NOTE: OpenHTML() and OpenBody() may get called multiple times * in the same document. That's fine, and it doesn't mean * that we have multiple bodies or HTML's. * * NOTE: I haven't figured out how sub-documents (non-frames) * are going to be handled. Stay tuned. */ #include "nsIContentSink.h" #include "nsHTMLTags.h" #define NS_IHTML_CONTENT_SINK_IID \ { \ 0xefc5af86, 0x5cfd, 0x4918, { \ 0x9d, 0xd3, 0x5f, 0x7a, 0xb2, 0x88, 0xb2, 0x68 \ } \ } /** * This interface is OBSOLETE and in the process of being REMOVED. * Do NOT implement! */ class nsIHTMLContentSink : public nsIContentSink { public: NS_DECLARE_STATIC_IID_ACCESSOR(NS_IHTML_CONTENT_SINK_IID) enum ElementType { eHTML, eBody }; /** * This method is used to open a generic container in the sink. * * @update 4/1/98 gess */ NS_IMETHOD OpenContainer(ElementType aNodeType) = 0; /** * This method gets called by the parser when a close * container tag has been consumed and needs to be closed. * * @param aTag - The tag to be closed. */ NS_IMETHOD CloseContainer(ElementType aTag) = 0; }; NS_DEFINE_STATIC_IID_ACCESSOR(nsIHTMLContentSink, NS_IHTML_CONTENT_SINK_IID) #endif /* nsIHTMLContentSink_h___ */
