RE: "Value Change with Focus Change" when the focus doesn't change...

Hi Eric,

The working group is very close to publishing an updated errata list
and XForms 1.0 second edition.  The updated errata includes a change
to the section you are citing, including the removal of mention of
DOM focus events.  The updated section is titled change "Sequence:
Value Change" and onloy shows the event sequence corresponding to a 
value change without interaction of other circumstances like focus
change.

Best regards,
John Boyer

Subject: "Value Change with Focus Change" when the focus doesn't
change...



The spec says, under "4.6.1 For input, secret, textarea, range, or 
upload Controls":

"When the form control is interactively changed, and has the 
"incremental="true" setting, the event sequence described at 4.6.7 
Sequence: Value Change with Focus Change may be initiated at 
implementation dependent intervals."

Does it really make sense to send DOMFocusOut and DOMFocusIn events when 
the focus hasn't changed? I would imagine that in this case, "Sequence: 
Value Change with Focus Change" would still be valid but would NOT send 
DOMFocusOut and DOMFocusIn events at all. I don't see anything in the 
errata on the subject.
