"Focus ring" is the term of art, regardless of its shape (I don't think I've ever seen one that actually looks like a ring... usually it's a rectangle, maybe rounded on Mac OS, though in modern days on most platforms it's usually an outline of whatever the icon is). Sometimes the "ring" is actually just a background or highlight. > We could probably come up with a slightly better name, but only very > slightly better, so at this point I would rather not reopen the > discussion. If someone else wants to, that's up to them. There hasn't been a discussion at all, so far. Right now the spec says it's "drawSystemFocusRing()" and "drawCustomFocusRing()", because there hasn't been a request to change it. I guess if y'all ship "drawFocusIfNeeded()" then that will de facto set one of the methods to the new name. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
