This documentation is quite incomplete. At the moment, it is simply a holding place for various bits of documentation that don't have a proper home yet.

fluid.accumulate(list, fn, arg)

Scan through a list of objects, "accumulating" a value over them (may be a straightforward "sum" or some other chained computation). The results will be added to the initial value passed in by "arg" and returned.

• list {Array}: The list of objects to be accumulated over
• fn {Function}: An "accumulation function" accepting the signature (object, total, index) where object is the list member, total is the "running total" object (which is the return value form the previous function), and index is the index number.
• arg {Object}: The initial value for the "running total" object

Return: arg

fluid.allocateSimpleId(element)

Allocate an id to the supplied element if it has none already, by a simple scheme resulting in ids "fluid-id-nnnn" where nnnn is an increasing integer.

• element {Element}: The element to place the simple id.

Return: String (representing the id)

fluid.byId(id, dokkument)

Returns a DOM element quickly, given an id.

• id {Object}: The id of the DOM node to find
• dokkument {Document}: the document in which it is to be found (if left empty, use the current document)

Return: Element or null if none exists

See also: fluid.jById

fluid.clear(target)

Clears an object or array of its contents. For objects, each property is deleted.

• target {Object|Array}: Either an object or an array whose contents you wish to clear

fluid.COMPONENT_OPTIONS

A special "marker object" which is recognized as one of the arguments to fluid.initSubComponents. This object is recognized by reference equality - where it is found, it is replaced in the actual argument position supplied to the specific subcomponent instance, with the particular options block for that instance attached to the overall "that" object.

Constant: {}

See also: fluid.initSubComponents

fluid.container(containerSpec)

Fetches a single container element and returns it as a jQuery.

• containerSpec {String||jQuery||Element}

Return: jQuery (a single-element jQuery of container)

fluid.copy(tocopy)

Performs a deep copy (clone) of its argument

• tocopy {Object}: the object to be copied

Return: Object (the copy)

fluid.createDomBinder(container, selectors)

Creates a new DOM Binder instance, used to locate elements in the DOM by name.

• container {Object}: The root element in which to locate named elements
• selectors {Object}: A collection of named jQuery selectors

Return: Object

See: DOM Binder Guide and API

fluid.defaults()

Retrieves and stores a component's default settings centrally.

See: DOM Binder Guide and API, Fluid Component API

fluid.initSubcomponent

This function provides a generic way of instantiating and configuring any "sub-components" that may be a part of, or used by, a parent component. For example, this function is used by the Inline Edit component to instantiate the Undo decorator, a sub-component that provides Undo functionality to components that support it.

fluid.dom.cleanseScripts(element)

Cleanse the children of a DOM node by removing all <script> tags. This is necessary to prevent the possibility that these blocks are reevaluated if the node were reattached to the document.

• element {Element}: the parent element to begin removing <script> tags from.

fluid.dom.cleanseScripts.MARKER

Used to indicate that the DOM node has been stripped of all <script> tags

Constant: "fluid-scripts-cleansed"

See also: fluid.dom.cleanseScripts

fluid.dom.computeAbsolutePosition(element)

Returns the absolute position of a supplied DOM node in pixels. Implementation taken from quirksmode http://www.quirksmode.org/js/findpos.html

• element {Element}: the element whose location is returned

Return: \[curleft, curtop\]

fluid.dom.getElementText(element)

Returns the element text from the supplied DOM node as a single String.

• element {Element}: the element to return the text from

Return: String

fluid.dom.insertAfter(newChild, refChild)

Mockup of a missing DOM function

Inserts newChild as the next sibling of refChild.

• newChild {Element}: the new element to insert
• refChild {Element}: the element to insert newChild after

fluid.dom.isContainer(container, containee)

Checks if the specified container is actually the parent of containee.

• container {Element}: the potential parent
• conatainee {Element}: the child in question

Return: Boolean

fluid.dom.isIgnorableNode(node)

Determine if a node should be ignored by the iterator functions.
It will return true if the node is a Text node that is all whitespace or a comment node.

• node {Element}: representing the DOM1 Node interface

Return: Boolean

fluid.dom.isWhitespaceNode(node)

Determine whether a node's text content is entirely whitespace

• node {Element}: a node implementing the CharacterData interface (i.e., a Text, Comment, or CDATASection node

Return: Boolean

fluid.dom.iterateDom(node, acceptor, allNodes)

Walks the DOM, applying the specified acceptor function to each element. There is a special case for the acceptor, allowing for quick deletion of elements and their children.

• node {Element}: a node to start walking the DOM from
• acceptor {Function}: the function to invoke with each DOM element. If the return value is "delete", the element in question will be deleted. If the return value is "stop" the iteration will be terminated
• allNodes {Boolean}: use true to call acceptor on all nodes, rather than just element nodes (type 1)

fluid.dom.iterateDom.DOM_BAIL_DEPTH

This is provided as a work around for IE's circular DOM issue. This is the default max DOM depth in IE.
