Presentation

The Presentation can be defined as two possible user agents in the context: Controlling user agent and Receiving user agent.

Presentation.receiver
In a receiving user agent, the receiver attribute MUST return the PresentationReceiver instance associated with the receiving browsing context and created by the receiving user agent when the receiving browsing context is created.
