I'm willing to take a shot at implementing <input type="uri"> as described in Web Forms 2.0.
Summary: Implement <input type="uri"> → Implement <input type="url">
So I'm having a little trouble with overriding HTML layout. http://mozilla.pastebin.ca/93708 XML binding (inputBinding.xml) http://mozilla.pastebin.ca/93709 XHTML test page (inputBinding.xhtml) The binding works for <implementation/> (I can execute a dump() safely via the constructor), but the <content/> of the binding never appears. I did some preliminary debugging, and discovered nsCSSFrameConstructor::CreateInputFrame. control->GetType() returns NS_FORM_INPUT_TEXT, and so CreateInputFrame proceeds to construct the HTML text input frame instead of the XBL-based layout I want. roc, I think this is something you can help with. I'm thinking this really is a separate bug, but I want someone who's familiar with layout to affirm that before I file.
Yeah, nsCSSFrameConstructor needs to be changed. Ping me about it in a couple of weeks, OK?
Actually, maybe it doesn't. Try changing the XBL base tag of your binding to something other than an HTML <input>, e.g., a <span>
If you mean change: <p>HTML input: <input type="uri" size="20" value="http://www.w3.org"/> </p> to <p>HTML input: <span type="uri" size="20" value="http://www.w3.org"/> </p> then yes, it does work, but it defeats the purpose of Web Forms 2.0 - which is about extending the HTML input types. If you mean changing the binding from: <content> <html:input type="text" xbl:inherits="value,size"/> <xul:hbox><xul:button label="Test"/></xul:hbox> </content> to: <content> <html:span> <html:input type="text" xbl:inherits="value,size"/> <xul:hbox><xul:button label="Test" oncommand="alert('button clicked')"/></xul:hbox> </html:span> </content> That doesn't affect the layout of the HTML input widget at this point.

The way Opera has done it, with the autocomplete URL feature is very good. Do you think we could get the Awesomebar functionality in there? (And perhaps an icon, like Opera have too.)

According to HTML5 specs, a valid URL is a valid URI (RFC3986) or a valid IRI (RFC3987). I'm wondering if url parser are following these RFC's. I've seen only one comment related to one of these RFC's in the code base: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/browser.js#2183
I believe we implement more or less RFC 1738 last I checked.

This patch is unfortunately not checking the URI as the HTML5 specifications want it to. Considering the needed RFC's (3886 and 3987) are improving the RFC's we are following at the moment (see Boris' comment) it is probably better to check the URI as we can and improve that later.

Comment on attachment 440192 [details] [diff] [review] Patch v1.1 With that, looks good. Though please file a followup to create actual UI for this. We probably want to hook up the global history as validation.

Hmm.. though.. doesn't the spec require that the user can only enter valid URIs? In other words, if the user types something that isn't a valid uri then .value shouldn't be updated until this is corrected?
(In reply to comment #16) > Hmm.. though.. doesn't the spec require that the user can only enter valid > URIs?

No, email and url types can suffer from type mismatch so the user can type anything. If this is not valid, the element will suffer from type mismatch. Input types which can't have a valid value are the ones with a specific UI which are number, range, color and all date/time ones. And thank you for the review :)
Comment on attachment 440191 [details] [diff] [review] Tests v1.1 Tests look good. Though we'll need tests for UI once that arrives.
Ah, you are indeed correct. It does say though that the UA may "escape characters entered by the user so that the value is always a valid absolute URL" which I think would be cool to do. Though definitely not required in this bug.
