This input event handling change is intended to address the following
design issues:
- Having `DOM::Position` is unnecessary complexity when `Selection`
exists because caret position could be described by the selection
object with a collapsed state. Before this change, we had to
synchronize those whenever one of them was modified, and there were
already bugs caused by that, i.e., caret position was not changed when
selection offset was modified from the JS side.
- Selection API exposes selection offset within `<textarea>` and
`<input>`, which is not supposed to happen. These objects should
manage their selection state by themselves and have selection offset
even when they are not displayed.
- `EventHandler` looks only at `DOM::Text` owned by `DOM::Position`
while doing text manipulations. It works fine for `<input>` and
`<textarea>`, but `contenteditable` needs to consider all text
descendant text nodes; i.e., if the cursor is moved outside of
`DOM::Text`, we need to look for an adjacent text node to move the
cursor there.
With this change, `EventHandler` no longer does direct manipulations on
caret position or text content, but instead delegates them to the active
`InputEventsTarget`, which could be either
`FormAssociatedTextControlElement` (for `<input>` and `<textarea>`) or
`EditingHostManager` (for `contenteditable`). The `Selection` object is
used to manage both selection and caret position for `contenteditable`,
and text control elements manage their own selection state that is not
exposed by Selection API.
This change improves text editing on Discord, as now we don't have to
refocus the `contenteditable` element after character input. The problem
was that selection manipulations from the JS side were not propagated
to `DOM::Position`.
I expect this change to make future correctness improvements for
`contenteditable` (and `designMode`) easier, as now it's decoupled from
`<input>` and `<textarea>` and separated from `EventHandler`, which is
quite a busy file.
Our currently ad-hoc method of tracking element references is basically
a process-wide map, rather than grouping elements according to their
browsing context groups. This prevents us from recognizing when an
element reference is invalid due to its browsing context having been
closed.
This implements the WebDriver spec concept of element references grouped
according to their browsing context groups.
This patch is a bit noisy because we now need to plumb the current BC
through to the element reference AOs.
While Origin is defined in the HTML spec - this leaves us with quite an
awkward relationship as the URL spec makes use of AO's from what is
defined in the HTML spec.
To simplify this factoring, relocate Origin into LibURL.
I originally believed that this could never receive a null URL and the
spec was inaccurate, but it seems like it can indeed.
I don't have a distilled test, but this makes logging in with GitHub
work on https://v0.dev/
`BrowsingContext::m_parent` has been removed from the spec,
and previously `m_parent` was always null.
`BrowsingContext::is_top_level` was already always returning
true before because of that, and the updated spec algorithm
causes assertions to fail.
This fixes the following example:
```html
<a href="about:blank" target="test">a
<iframe name="test">
```
clicking the link twice no longer causes it to open in a new tab.
This URL library ends up being a relatively fundamental base library of
the system, as LibCore depends on LibURL.
This change has two main benefits:
* Moving AK back more towards being an agnostic library that can
be used between the kernel and userspace. URL has never really fit
that description - and is not used in the kernel.
* URL _should_ depend on LibUnicode, as it needs punnycode support.
However, it's not really possible to do this inside of AK as it can't
depend on any external library. This change brings us a little closer
to being able to do that, but unfortunately we aren't there quite
yet, as the code generators depend on LibCore.
This aligns it better with the current state of the spec.
There's still some functions and data members that need moved into
Navigable or TraversableNavigable, but we can leave those for the next
cleanup PR.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
With this change, we now have ~1200 CellAllocators across both LibJS and
LibWeb in a normal WebContent instance.
This gives us a minimum heap size of 4.7 MiB in the scenario where we
only have one cell allocated per type. Of course, in practice there will
be many more of each type, so the effective overhead is quite a bit
smaller than that in practice.
I left a few types unconverted to this mechanism because I got tired of
doing this. :^)
