https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=16409 Summary: DOM4: Consider LeafNode interface which Node inherits from Product: WebAppsWG Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: DOM AssignedTo: annevk@opera.com ReportedBy: ajvincent@gmail.com QAContact: public-webapps-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, www-dom@w3.org Andreas Gal's domjs project ( https://github.com/andreasgal/dom.js ) has an interesting idea: a separate class for "leaf nodes", which cannot have children. I wonder if this might be worth adding to the DOM4 spec, by splitting the Node interface into two parts: (1) A LeafNode interface which implements all the current Node's interface properties except firstChild, childNodes, lastChild, insertBefore, appendChild, replaceChild, and removeChild. (2) A Node interface which inherits from LeafNode and adds those extracted properties. interface LeafNode : EventTarget; interface Node : LeafNode; It might make text nodes, comments, etc. - nodes that can't have children - somewhat simpler. I'm only asking for consideration of the idea. -- 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.
