Davey Shafik [2004-02-22 19:11 UTC] I like, :)
Perhaps an XML_GUI class could be created which will provide a common API for/convert between XUL, Glade and the forthcoming XAML from MS?

Stefan Neufeind [2004-02-22 19:33 UTC] I'm always impressed what cool standards are built around XML. But not surprised that it's Sebastian proposing this :-)) One interesting point imho might also be to be able to easily read an XUL-file, edit it and save it back - all one package, with a consistent API.
The package seems very interesting and might function as a good basis for e.g. another package which will use php-gtk or something to display the user-interfaces described. But this should better be done in a separate package.
Alan Knowles [2004-02-23 00:32 UTC] Not bad..
couple of things:
- too many 'empty' classes.. - why not store the schema (eg. attributes types in a 'data' file), and just use base XML_XUL_Element...
A few of the methods use >3 arguments.. it would be nice to simplify them, or start using the assoc array method of setting..
I would prefer
$tb = XML_XUL_Element::Factory('textbox');
And please, please, please make the children/attributes public.. vars..
Alan Knowles [2004-02-23 00:42 UTC] you cant use ->clone()
it's a reserved word in PHP5
Alan Knowles [2004-02-23 00:45 UTC] getElementByName() should not return a pear error .. it's too fat and slow.. for something like this.
- just use false... and === tests.
Alan Knowles [2004-02-23 00:47 UTC] flooding email alert:.....
serialize? - I'd expect to see unserialize .. and some magic storage mechanism
.. perhaps
toXul() or just toXML()..
Stephan Schmidt [2004-02-23 19:31 UTC] Hi,
I just uploaded v0.5.1 with the following changes:
- renamed clone() to cloneElement()
- getElementById() returns false if element is not found
- removed some unneeded attributes
- children, cdata and attributes are now public properties
- added some cross-references in API doc
- fixed minor bugs
- added addPopup() to popupset element
Most of these changes have been wishes by Alan Knowles
Best regards,
Stephan
Alan Knowles [2004-02-24 00:45 UTC] couple of ideas came this morning when looking at it..
a) elementName as public
b) change the var $_commonAttribs to a method getAttribs($mergewith=array())
return $mergewith + array(....)
The means that print_r($xul) will produce a reasonably short view of the tree..
