https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=16329 Summary: compositionstart should not be cancellable for IME Product: WebAppsWG Version: unspecified Platform: PC URL: https://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/issues/183 OS/Version: Windows NT Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: DOM3 Events AssignedTo: travil@microsoft.com ReportedBy: travil@microsoft.com QAContact: public-webapps-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, www-dom@w3.org, masayuki@d-toybox.com PORT: ISSUE-183: (This bug will be used to track this LC comment.) http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/DOM-Level-3-Events/html/DOM3-Events.html#event-type-compositionstart DOM3 Events Spec defines that compositionstart is cancelable. But it doesn't make sense for IME at least. UA doesn't know which key event causes starting composition. It is decided by IME. Current UAs dispatch compositionstart when IME starts composition actually. Therefore, "This event must be dispatched immediately before a text composition system is launched", this definition doesn't match current implementations. And also the composition has started already at that time. Therefore, "If this event is canceled, the text composition system must not be launched.", this explanation is impossible behavior. I'm not sure for other input methods. I think that the spec should document the IME case at least. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
