This also introduces shadow roots due to it being a requirement of
the event dispatcher.
However, it does not introduce the full shadow DOM, that can be
left for future work.
This changes some event dispatches which require certain attributes
to be initialised to a value.
For now, the new DOM::EventDispatcher is very simple, it just iterates
over the set of listeners on an EventTarget and invokes the callbacks
as it goes.
This simplifies EventTarget subclasses since they no longer have to
implement the callback mechanism themselves.
LibWeb keeps growing and the Web namespace is filling up fast.
Let's put DOM stuff into Web::DOM, just like we already started doing
with SVG stuff in Web::SVG.
In order to complete a relative URL, we need a Document. Fix this by
giving XMLHttpRequest a pointer to its window object. Then we can go
from the window to the document, and then we're home free. :^)
This patch adds very basic XMLHttpRequest support to LibWeb. Here's an
example that currently works:
var callback = function() { alert(this.responseText); }
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.addEventListener("load", callback);
xhr.open("GET", "http://serenityos.org/~kling/test/example.txt");
xhr.send();
There are many limitations and bugs, but it's pretty dang awesome that
we have XHR. :^)
