@title{@bold{Browser}: Simple HTML Rendering}

The @schememodname[browser/browser] library provides the following
procedures and classes for parsing and viewing HTML files.  The
@schememodname[browser/htmltext] library provides a simplified
interface for rendering to a subclass of the MrEd @scheme[text%]
class. The [browser/external] library provides utilities for launching
an external browser (such as Firefox).

@section[#:tag "browser"]{Browser}

@defmodule[browser/browser]

The browser supports basic HTML commands, plus special Scheme
hyperlinks of the form @(litchar "<A MZSCHEME=sexpr>...</A>"). When
the user clicks on such a link, the string @scheme[sexpr] is parsed as
a Scheme program and evaluated. Since @scheme[sexpr] is likely to
contain Scheme strings, and since escape characters are difficult for
people to read, a @litchar{|} character in @scheme[sexpr] is
converted to a @litchar{"} character before it is parsed. Thus,

@verbatim[#<<EOS
  <A MZSCHEME="|This goes nowhere.|">Nowhere</A>
EOS
]

creates a ``Nowhere'' hyperlink, which executes the Scheme program

@schemeblock[
"This goes nowhere."
]

The value of that program is a string. When a Scheme hyperlink returns
a string, it is parsed as a new HTML document. Thus, where the use
clicks on ``Nowhere,'' the result is a new page that says ``This goes
nowhere.''

The browser also treats comment forms containing @(litchar "MZSCHEME=sexpr")
specially.  Whereas the @(litchar "<A MZSCHEME=sexpr>...</A>") form executes the
expression when the user clicks, the @(litchar "MZSCHEME") expression in a comment
is executed immediately during HTML rendering. If the result is a
string, the comment is replaced in the input HTML stream with the
content of the string. Thus,

@verbatim[#<<EOS
  <!-- MZSCHEME="(format |<B>Here</B>: ~a| (current-directory))" -->
EOS
]

inserts the path of the current working directory into the containing
document (and ``Here'' is boldfaced). If the result is a snip instead
of a string, it replaces the comment in the document. Other types of
return values are ignored.

If the html file is being accessed as a @(litchar "file:") url, the
@scheme[current-load-relative-directory] parameter is set to the
directory during the evaluation of the mzscheme code (in both
examples). The Scheme code is executed through @scheme[eval].

The @(litchar "MZSCHEME") forms are disabled unless the web page is a
@(litchar "file:") url that points into the @scheme[doc] collection.

@defproc[(open-url [url null]) null]{
	Opens the given url
 	(either a string, url record, or port) 
  	in a vanilla browser frame and returns
  	the frame. The frame is an instance of
  	@scheme[hyper-frame%].
}

@defproc[(html-img-ok [on? null undefined]) null]{
	@scheme[html-img-ok] controls image rendering for the browser.

	If @scheme[on?] is provided, sets the value of the parameter to 
	@scheme[on?], otherwise returns the current value of the parameter
}

@defproc[(html-eval-ok [on? null undefined]) null]{
	@scheme[html-eval-ok] controls the evaluation of @(litchar "MZSCHEME=")
	tags.

	If @scheme[on?] is provided, sets the value of the parameter to 
	@scheme[on?], otherwise returns the current value of the parameter
}

@defmixin[hyper-frame-mixin () ()]{
	The result of this mixin takes one argument, a url
   	string. During the initialization of objects created from
   	this mixin, the code shows the frame and visits the url.

	@defconstructor[([frame% null])]{
		Extends the given @scheme[frame%] class.
	}

	@defmethod[(get-hyper-panel%) null]{
	Returns the class that is instantiated when the frame is created.
	Must be a panel with hyper-panel-mixin mixed in. Defaults to
  	just returning @scheme[hyper-panel%].
	}

	@defmethod[(get-hyper-panel) null]{
	Returns the hyper panel in this frame.
	}
}

@defmixin[hyper-no-show-frame-mixin () ()]{
	This is the same as the @scheme[hyper-frame-mixin], except that it
  	doesn't show the frame and the initialization arguments
  	are unchanged.

	@defconstructor[([frame% null])]{
		Extends the given @scheme[frame%] class.
	}
}

@defmixin[hyper-text-mixin () ()]{
	The initialization arguments are extended with
   	four new first arguments: a url or a port to be loaded
   	into the @scheme[text%] object (using the @scheme[reload] method,
   	described below), a top-level-window or @scheme[#f] to use as a
   	parent for status dialogs, a progress procedure used as
   	for @scheme[get-url], and either @scheme[#f] or a post string to be sent
   	to a web server (technically changing the GET to a POST).

   	Sets the autowrap-bitmap to @scheme[#f].
   
   	An instance of a @scheme[(hyper-text-mixin text%)] class should be displayed
   	only in an instance of a class created with @scheme[hyper-canvas-mixin]
   	(described below).

	@defconstructor[([text% null])]{
		Extends the given @scheme[text%] class.
	}

   	The mixin adds the following methods:

	@defmethod[(map-shift-style [start null] [end null] [shift-style null]) null]{

	}

	@defmethod[(find-tag [name-string/number null]) null]{
		Finds the location of a tag in the buffer (where tags are
     	installed in HTML with @(litchar "<A NAME=\"name\">")) and returns its
     	position. If @scheme[name] is a number, the number is returned 
		(assumed to be an offset rather than a tag). Otherwise, 
		if the tag is not found, @scheme[#f] is returned.
	}

	@defmethod[(remove-tag [name null]) null]{
		Removes a tag.
	}

	@defmethod[(post-url [url string?] [post-data-bytes null #f]) null]{
		Follows the link in the string. 
		@scheme[post-data-bytes] defaults to @scheme[#f]
	}

	@defmethod[(add-link [start null] [end null] [url-string null]) null]{
		Installs a hyperlink.
	}

	@defmethod[(add-scheme-callback [start null] [end null] [scheme-string null]) null]{
		Installs a Scheme evaluation hyperlink.
	}

	@defmethod[(add-thunk-callback [start null] [end null] [thunk null]) null]{
		Installs a thunk-based hyperlink.
	}

	@defmethod[(eval-scheme-string [string null]) null]{
		Called to handle the @(litchar "<A MZSCHEME=\"expr\">...</A>") 
		tag and @(litchar "<! MZSCHEME=\"expr\">") comments (see above). 
		Evaluates the string; if the result is a string, 
		it is opened as an HTML page.
	}

	@defmethod[(reload) null]{
		Reloads the current page.
     
    	The text defaultly uses the basic style named "Html
	    Standard" in the editor (if it exists).	}

	@defmethod[(remap-url [url null]) null]{
		When visiting a new page, this method is called to remap
	   	the url. The remapped url is used in place of the
   		original url. If this method returns @scheme[#f], the page doesn't
	   	go anywhere.

   		This method may be killed (if the user clicks the
   		``stop'' button)
	}
	
	@defmethod[(get-hyper-keymap) null]{
		Returns a keymap suitable for frame-level handling of events to
	    redirect page-up, etc. to the browser canvas.
	}

}

@defclass[hyper-text% hyper-text-mixin #;(hyper-text-mixin text:keymap%) ()]{

	Extends the @scheme[text:keymap%] class to support standard
	key bindings in the browser window.

}

@defmixin[hyper-canvas-mixin () ()]{
	@defconstructor[([editor-canvas% null])]{
		Extends the given
 		@scheme[editor-canvas%] class. 
		The initialization arguments are unchanged.

 	The canvas's parent should be an instance of a class derived with
  	@scheme[hyper-panel-mixin] (described below).

	@defmethod[(get-editor%) null]{
	Returns the class used to implement the editor in the browser
    window. It should be derived from @scheme[hyper-text%] 
	and should pass on the
   	initialization arguments to @scheme[hyper-text%].

   	The dynamic extent of the initialization of this
   	editor is called on a thread that may be killed (via a
   	custodian shutdown)

   	In that case, the editor in the browser's
   	editor-canvas may not be an instance of this class.
	}

	@defmethod[(current-page) null]{
	Returns a representation of the currently displayed page, which
   	includes a particular editor and a visible range within the
   	editor.
	}

	@defmethod[(goto-url [url null] [relative-to-url null] [progress-proc null undefined] [post-data-bytes null @scheme[#f]]) null]{
	Changes to the given url, loading it by calling the @scheme[make-editor]
   	method. If @scheme[relative-to-url] is not @scheme[#f], it must be 
	a URL for resolving @scheme[url] as a relative URL. 
	@scheme[url] may also be a port, in which case, 
	@scheme[relative-to-url] must be @scheme[#f].

   	The @scheme[progress-proc] procedure is called with a boolean at the
   	point where the URL has been resolved and enough progress has
   	been made to dismiss any message that the URL is being
   	resolved. The procedure is called with @scheme[#t] if the URL will be
   	loaded into a browser window, @scheme[#f] otherwise (e.g., the user will
   	save the URL content to a file).

   	If @scheme[post-data-bytes] is a byte string instead of false, the URL
   	GET is changed to a POST with the given data.
	}

	@defmethod[(set-page [page null] [notify? null]) null]{
	Changes to the given page. If @scheme[notify?] is not @scheme[#f], 
	the canvas's parent is notified about the change by calling its 
	@scheme[leaving-page] method.		
	}

	@defmethod[(after-set-page) null]{
	Called during @scheme[set-page]. Defaultly does nothing.
	}
}

@defmixin[hyper-panel-mixin () ()]{
	@defconstructor[([area-container% null])]{
	Extends the given area
	container class. The initialization arguments are unchanged, but
  	initialization creates controls and a hyper text canvas.  The
  	controls permit a user to move back and forth in the hypertext
  	history.
	}
	
  	The mixin adds a initialization argument, @scheme[info-line?], 
	which is a boolean indicating whether the browser should contain a 
	line to display special @(litchar "DOCNOTE") tags in a page. 
	Such tags are used primarily by the PLT documentation.

  	The mixin adds the following instance variables:
	
	@defmethod[(make-canvas [container null]) null]{
	Creates the panel's hypertext canvas, an instance of a class
   	derived using @scheme[hyper-canvas-mixin] (described above). This
   	method is called during initialization.

	@defmethod[(get-canvas%) null]{
	Returns the class instantiated by make-canvas. It must be derived from
   	@scheme[hyper-canvas%].
	}

	@defmethod[(make-control-bar-panel [container null]) null]{
	Creates the panel's sub-container for the control bar containing
   	the navigation buttons. If @scheme[#f] is returned, the panel will 
	have no control bar. The default method instantiates
	@scheme[horizontal-panel%].
	}

	@defmethod[(rewind) null]{
	Goes back one page, if possible.
	}

	@defmethod[(forward) null]{
	Goes forward one page, if possible.

   	changes (either by clicking on a link in the canvas or by
   	@scheme[rewind] or @scheme[forward] calls).
	}

	@defmethod[(leaving-page [page null] [new-page null]) null]{
	This method is called by the hypertext canvas to notify the
   	panel that the hypertext page changed. The @scheme[page] is @scheme[#f]
   	if @scheme[new-page] is the first page for the canvas. See also
   	@scheme[page->editor] (described below).
	}

	@defmethod[(filter-notes [list-of-strings null]) null]{
	Given the notes from a page as a list of strings (where
   	each string is a note), returns a single string to print
   	above the page.

	@defmethod[(reload) null]{
	Reloads the currently visible page by calling the @scheme[reload] 
	method of the currently displayed hyper-text.

}

@defproc[(editor->page [editor null]) null]{
	Creates a page record for the given editor,

@defproc[(on-installer-run [proc null undefined]) null]{
	Parameter for a procedure to be invoked
  	after the installer is run on a .plt file.
}

@defproc[(bullet-size [n null undefined]) null]{
	Parameter controlling the point size of a
  	bullet.	
}

@defmixin[image-map-snip% () ()]{
	Instances of this class behave like @scheme[image-snip%] objects,

	@defconstructor[([html-text (is-a?/c html-text<%>)])]{
	}

	@defmethod[(set-key [key-string null]) null]{
		Sets the key for the image map (eg, "#key").
