This is a LC comment regarding the "verb" section of
http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-xforms11-20070222/#submit-verb
and likewise references in
http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-xforms11-20070222/#submit-options
1) I can not find a clear definition or normative reference, to what a
"verb" is.
2)
Section states:
"default value is determined based on the URI scheme and the
method attribute using the rules in 11.9 Submission Options. "
Comment:
Looking in 11.9, I can not find any clear rules for processing.
Only a reference to the "submission" column, which does not define a
string literal that can be used for the value of the element/attribute of
verb. I'd recommend clarifying the table either by adding a new "Verb"
column and string literals that are valid.
3)
Section states:
"For example, under the http and https schemes, the methods post
and urlencoded-post correspond to the verb POST"
Comment:
Does this imply that if action="http://someurl" that verb="post"
and if action="https://someurl" then verb="urlencoded-post"?
4)
Section states:
"If given, the verb attribute overrides the default verb used in
submission"
Comment:
What is the default? Perhaps it is given in the table in 11.9 but
I'm unable to clearly map the values
5) Editorial
Section states:
"The submission element can optionally *have* a child element
named verb"
missing word *have*
Thanks,
