I was just alerted about this thread from my post "Text-To-Speech (TTS) Web API for JavaScript" at < http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-December/024453.html>. Amazing how shared ideas like these seem to arise independently at the same time. I have a use-case and an additional

2009-12-10 Thread Weston Ruter
I've been working on a web app which reads text in a web page, highlighting each word as it is read. For this to be possible, a Text-To-Speech API is needed which is able to: (1) generate the speech audio from some text, and (2) include the time indicies for when each of the words in the text is sp

[whatwg] Implement XMLHttpRequest interface subset on HTMLDocument

2008-10-29 Thread Weston Ruter

Many times I've set SELECT.selectedIndex to -1 to have the effect of an invalid starter value; I think this is a case where the REQUIRED attribute would make sense. If a SELECT has a REQUIRED attribute, and SELECT.selectedIndex == -1, then the control would be considered invalid. It would also seem
