XUL (XML User Interface Language) is Mozilla's XML-based language for building user interfaces of applications like Firefox.
2 A XUL Bestiary Add-ons, Extensions, NeedsTechnicalReview, XUL
This XULNote presents some of the key concepts and terms in the XUL development environment. The purpose of this article is not to describe these items in any great detail but to define what they are in simple terms. I selected items for this group because they seemed to be either shrouded in mystery, misused as concepts or terms, or underestimated according to their role in XUL and cross-platform development. In contrast to the Mozilla Jargon File, this article describes items of specific interest to the web or content developer looking to establish a context for understanding Mozilla's new technologies -- and in particular Mozilla's XML-based User Interface Language, XUL.

5 Flexgroup
"flexgroup" is used to group flexible elements together and should be set to an integer. Elements with a lower flexgroup are flexed first. When those elements have reached their maximum sizes, the elements with the next higher flexgroup are flexed. This process continues until there are no more elements remaining. The same process occurs when decreasing the size, except in the other direction.</font>

421 Building accessible custom components in XUL Accessibility, DHTML, XUL
DHTML Accessibility is a new technology which enables developers to construct accessible controls within (X)HTML pages. Developers have been doing this for some time, but the resulting controls were never as accessible as similar controls in desktop applications. Assistive technologies could only see the generic HTML markup used to build the control; they had no way of knowing that a particular collection of div and span elements should be treated as a single cohesive control (such as a tab bar or a treeview).

425 How to implement a custom XUL query processor component
XUL supports templating to create a block of content from a datasource query. The XUL Template Guide has lots of detailed information on using XUL templates. XUL provides template query processors for RDF, XML and SQL (mozStorage). The templating system also supports building custom query processors. Custom query processors are XPCOM components, must implement the nsIXULTemplateQueryProcessor interface and follow some conventions for when registering the component.

428 Introduction to XUL Guide, XUL
Mozilla has configurable, downloadable chrome, meaning that the arrangement and even presence or absence of controls in the main window is not hardwired into the application, but loaded from a separate UI description. In fact, most of Mozilla's windows (and dialogs) will be described using this mechanism. XUL (pronounced "zool," as if that spelling helped any, and short for "XML User Interface Language") is our name for the language in which these UI descriptions are built.
429 List of commands XUL

430 Menus Add-ons, Extensions, NeedsContent, Reference, Référence, XUL
An extension will often wish to attach a new command to a menu. To do this, the new menu will need to be overlaid over the existing menu that the item should be displayed upon. For more information about how to use an overlay to modify a menu, see Using Menus and Popups in Extensions

907 Template Guide XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
Basics of XUL Templates
908 Actions XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
The content to generate in a template is specified using the action element which should either be the next sibling of the query element (if no rules need be specified) or be a direct child of a rule element. The content to generate goes directly inside the action element. This content will be copied for each matching result (though see below for an exception) and inserted into the document. Let's look at a simple example first.
909 Additional Navigation XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
The triples used so far have all had variables in both the subject and object. However, a string value may be used instead. Since the subject of an RDF arc is always a resource, the subject may be a resource URI. The object attribute may be a resource URI or a literal value. Using a literal as the object of a triple is a common way to filter out specific items. For instance, if items were identified with a type, the data could be filtered to include only items of a particular type.
910 Additional Template Attributes XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
All the templates used so far have had the template placed inside the root element with the datasources attribute. However, you may use the template attribute to refer to a template located elsewhere within the document. This allows you to share the same template among two different parts of the user interface. To use this technique, place a template attribute on the root element set to the id of a template.
911 Attribute Substitution XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
The effect will be that the ?name part of the attribute will be replaced by the value of the variable ?name. For instance, if the value of ?name is 'Jake', then the attribute value will be 'My name is Jake'. You can include multiple variables in one attribute if desired:
912 Bindings XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
We can add more triples to the previous example to show more information. For example, a description could be added to a photo. To do this all we need to do is add the necessary data to the RDF datasource and add another <triple> element to the template's statements.</triple>
913 Building Hierarchical Trees XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
No summary!
914 Building Menus With Templates XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
Menus may be generated using a template in the same manner as other elements. However, unlike with other elements, the content of a menu is only generated once the menu has been opened. This means that a menu created with a template will not have any of the generated items until the user opens the menu, or a script opens the menu. This applies to menus on menubars, submenus, as well as menu-type buttons such as those with a type attribute set to menu. This allows for better performance as the entire content of a complex menu does not need to be created until the user needs to use the menu.
915 Building Trees XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
The most common element to use with a template is the tree.
916 Containment Properties
Let's look back at the very first example again. It doesn't have any containers, but we may want to iterate over the relatedItem predicate using the simple query syntax. We can add the containment attribute to do this.

918 Introduction XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
Each template retrieves its data from a datasource. Several types of datasources are supported by default, RDF, XML and SQLite databases, however, processors may be written to support other types of datasources. In XUL, the datasource is specified by placing the datasources attribute on an element. Typically, the value will be a URI that identifies the location of the data. For example, for an XML datasource, the URL of an XML file is specified. When the XUL parser sees an element with this attribute, it constructs a template builder for the element and attaches it to the element. It is expected that there will be a template inside the element. The template builder loads the datasource, performs a query on the datasource and generates content based on the results in combination with the template. The type of datasource is specified with the querytype attribute. The type affects how the datasource is used as well as the syntax for specifying queries.

922 Namespaces
XML Namespaces can be used in XUL Templates by binding the namespace URI and prefix to the template element.  For example using the following XML document containing a list of people:
923 RDF Modifications XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
No summary!
924 RDF Query Syntax XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
Let's look at a simple query with two statements. Each statement is placed as a direct child of the <query> element within the template.</query>
925 Recursive Generation XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
After generating content, the template builder always repeats the generation for inner levels as far as it can go. Thus, the builder can be said to generate content from the graph recursively. After generating a result's content, the builder starts again using a new parent and starting point. Naturally, the parent will be the new result's content, rather than the outer containing element, and the starting point will be the endpoint of the previous iteration. For the top level generation the parent insertion point is the element with the datasources attribute, in this example a <vbox>. For nested results, the insertion point is the generated element. Here is the content that was generated after one iteration:</vbox>
926 Result Generation XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
In this section, we'll look at generating template output using RDF datasources. First, however, some background.
927 Rule Compilation XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
A XUL template is made up of a query and a series of rules. A query contains instructions for how to retrieve a set of data from the datasource. The exact syntax is dependent on the type of datasource used in the template. For instance, for an SQLite datasource, an SQL statement is used as the query. This will return a table of result records which are then used to generate output. For RDF and XML, the query contains a set of instructions for navigating through the RDF graph or XML document tree. A query is declared with the query tag (new to FF3; FF2 only worked with RDF datasources and had no query tag), which you would place directly inside the <template>. The job of the query is to generate a set of output results.

931 Sorting Results XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
When results are generated from a query, content is generated in the same order as the results. For an XML datasource, generated content will be output in the order corresponding to the results of the XPath query expression. For an Sqlite datasource, the generated content corresponds to the order of results of the SQL query. For an RDF datasource, again, the results are in the order the query generates them, although except in the case of an RDF Seq, this order is arbitrary as RDF triples don't occur in any particular order. When the reference node is an RDF Seq container and the results are in that container, however, the template builder orders the results in the order the items appear in the Seq. For instance, the photos are listed in the same order in this example as they appear in the Seq in the datasource.
932 Special Condition Tests XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
There are several additional types of conditional tests that may be performed.
933 Static Content XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
No summary!
934 Template Builder Interface XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
When inserting an element into a XUL document, the element is checked to see if it has a datasources attribute. If so, a template builder will be created for the element and attached to the element. If the element is a <tree> element and has the flags attribute set to "dont-build-content", a tree builder will be created. Otherwise, a content builder will be created. Both types of builder share much of the same code except for how they generate output to be displayed. Both types of builders implement the nsIXULTemplateBuilder interface, while the tree builder also implements the nsIXULTreeBuilder interface.</tree>
935 Template Logging
Debugging problems with a template can be difficult as many problems are logic errors that are often not possible to determine automatically. For example, if you spell a value wrong, no data may be returned, but the template system won't know that that this was because of a spelling error, or simply that there shouldn't be any data anyway. Fortunately, some debugging and logging support is provided with templates that may help.
936 Template and Tree Listeners XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
There are several listeners (or observers) used during the template build process, each used for different purposes. These each implement a different XPCOM interface, as listed below:

938 Using Recursive Templates XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
You may recall that templates generate content recursively. After the data is generated, each result is used as the new reference point for a nested iteration of the template. This is usually used to generate content in a tree or menu. Both the RDF and XML datasource types support recursion. For example, using this XML datasource:
939 XML Assignments XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
No summary!
940 XML Templates XUL, XUL_Template_Guide
Mozilla also supports the use of XML datasources. An XML document will be loaded and XPath expressions may be used to take portions of the XML document and generate content from these. When an XML source is desired, specify a querytype attribute on the root node of the template to the value xml. This indicates to the template builder that an XML source is being used as that the queries use syntax that is specific to XML.
941 Textbox (XPFE autocomplete) XUL Elements, XUL Reference
This element is created by setting the type attribute of a textbox to autocomplete. It is used to create a textbox with a popup containing a list of possible completions for what the user has started to type.
942 The Joy of XUL Guide, Mozilla, XPCOM, XPConnect, XUL
This guide is designed to introduce application developers and their managers to XUL so they can not only understand why Mozilla's platform is based on it, but how they might adopt it for their own use. XUL (pronounced "zool") is Mozilla's XML-based user interface language that lets you build feature rich cross-platform applications that can run connected to or disconnected from the Internet. These applications are easily customized with alternative text, graphics, and layout so they can be readily branded or localized for various markets. Web developers already familiar with Dynamic HTML (DHTML) will learn XUL quickly and can start building applications right away.

An accesskey is an underlined letter in a web page, menu or dialog that indicates to a user a quick, keyboard method of simulating a click on that element. For example, an Apply button may have the letter A underlined. On Windows and UNIX, pressing ALT+A is a convenient way to push that button. On Macintosh, accesskeys are available only in HTML not in XUL, and they are activated using CTRL+letter instead of ALT.

1059 XUL accessibility guidelines Accessibility, XUL
Welcome to the XUL Accessibility Guidelines. By following these principles and practices, you will be able to write your XUL applications in such a way that all users, including those with physical, sensory, or communicative disabilities, with be able to use and enjoy them. Accessibility is not difficult, but does require a basic understanding of the different types of disabilities, commonly used assistive technologies, and special accessibility features built into the XUL languages. Most of all, accessibility requires a conscious effort on your part, and a desire to include everyone.
1060 XUL accessibility tool Accessibility
The XUL Accessibility Tool is a Firefox extension designed by Aaron Andersen of WebAIM as part of a Mozilla Foundation accessibility minigrant in the spring of 2007. It is designed to test (insofar as automated testing is possible) the guidelines and requirement for creating accessible XUL as set forth in the XUL accessibility guidelines, and to report on any problems found in tested documents. While not meant to be a comprehensive test suite (meaning that passing all included tests does not guarantee that an application is free of accessibility bugs or issues), many of the most common accessibility mistakes will be found and reported.
