It defines the <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule for declaring a default namespace and for binding namespaces to namespace prefixes. It also defines a syntax for using those prefixes to represent namespace-qualified names. It does not define where such names are valid or what they mean: that depends on their context and is defined by a host language, such as Selectors (<a data-biblio-type=informative data-link-type=biblio href=#select title=select>[SELECT]</a>), that references the syntax defined in the CSS Namespaces module. <p> Note that a CSS client that does not support this module will (if it properly conforms to <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#parsing-errors">CSS’s forward-compatible parsing rules</a>) ignore all <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rules, as well as all style rules that make use of namespace qualified names. The syntax of delimiting namespace prefixes in CSS was deliberately chosen so that these CSS clients would ignore the style rules rather than possibly match them incorrectly. <h2 class="heading settled heading" data-level=2 id=conformance><span class=secno>2 </span><span class=content>Conformance</span><a class=self-link href=#conformance></a></h2> <p>A document or implementation cannot conform to CSS Namespaces alone, but can claim conformance to CSS Namespaces if it satisfies the conformance requirements in this specification when implementing CSS or another host language that normatively references this specification.</p> <p>Conformance to CSS Namespaces is defined for two classes: <dl> <dt><dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-noexport="" id=style-sheet>style sheet<a class=self-link href=#style-sheet></a></dfn></dt> <dd>A <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#style-sheet">CSS style sheet</a> (or a complete unit of another host language that normatively references CSS Namespaces). <dt><dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-noexport="" id=interpreter>interpreter<a class=self-link href=#interpreter></a></dfn></dt> <dd>Someone or something that interprets the semantics of a style sheet. (CSS <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#user-agent">user agents</a> fall under this category.)</dd> </dl> <p>The conformance requirements are expressed with a combination of descriptive assertions and RFC 2119 terminology. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in the normative parts of this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119. However, for readability, these words do not appear in all uppercase letters in this specification. All of the text of this specification is normative except sections explicitly marked as non-normative, examples, and notes. <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#rfc2119 title=rfc2119>[RFC2119]</a></p> <p>Examples in this specification are introduced with the words "for example" or are set apart from the normative text with <code>class="example"</code>, like this: <div class=example> <p>This is an example of an informative example.</p> </div> <p>Informative notes begin with the word "Note" and are set apart from the normative text with <code>class="note"</code>, like this: <p class=note>Note, this is an informative note.</p> <h3 class="heading settled heading" data-level=2.1 id=terminology><span class=secno>2.1 </span><span class=content> Terminology</span><a class=self-link href=#terminology></a></h3> <p> Besides terms introduced by this specification, CSS Namespaces uses the terminology defined in Namespaces in XML 1.0. <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#xml-names title=xml-names>[XML-NAMES]</a> However, the syntax defined here is not restricted to representing XML element and attribute names and may represent other kinds of namespaces as defined by the host language. <p> In CSS Namespaces a namespace name consisting of the empty string is taken to represent the null namespace or lack of a namespace. <div class=example> For example, given the namespace declarations: <pre> @namespace empty ""; @namespace ""; </pre> <p> The <a data-link-type=dfn href="https://www.w3.org/TR/selectors4/#type-selector" title="type selectors">type selectors</a> <code>elem</code>, <code>|elem</code>, and <code>empty|elem</code> are equivalent. </div> <div> <h2 class="heading settled heading" data-level=3 id=declaration><span class=secno>3 </span><span class=content>Declaring namespaces: the <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule</span><a class=self-link href=#declaration></a></h2> <p> The <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> <a data-link-type=dfn href="https://www.w3.org/TR/css3-syntax/#at-rule" title=at-rule>at-rule</a> declares a namespace prefix and associates it with a given namespace name (a string). This namespace prefix can then be used in namespace-qualified names such as the <a data-link-type=dfn href=#css-qualified-name title="css qualified names">CSS qualified names</a> defined below. <div class=example> <pre> @namespace "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; @namespace svg "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"; </pre> <p> The first rule declares a default namespace <code>http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml</code> to be applied to names that have no explicit namespace component. <p> The second rule declares a namespace prefix <code>svg</code> that is used to apply the namespace <code>http://www.w3.org/2000/svg</code> where the <code>svg</code> namespace prefix is used. </div> <p> In CSS Namespaces, as in Namespaces in XML 1.0, the prefix is merely a syntactic construct; it is the <dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-export="" id=expanded-name>expanded name<a class=self-link href=#expanded-name></a></dfn> (the tuple of local name and namespace name) that is significant. Thus the actual prefixes used in a CSS style sheet, and whether they are defaulted or not, are independent of the namespace prefixes used in the markup and whether these are defaulted or not. <div class=example> For example, given the following XML document: <pre> <qml:elem xmlns:qml="http://example.com/q-markup"></qml:elem> </pre> <p> and the following <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> declarations at the beginning of a CSS file: <pre> @namespace Q "http://example.com/q-markup"; @namespace lq "http://example.com/q-markup"; </pre> <p> The selectors <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=q|elem>Q|elem</span> and <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=lq|elem>lq|elem</span> in that CSS file would both match the element <code><qml:elem></code>. <p> (The selector <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=qml|elem>qml|elem</span> would be invalid, because CSS namespaces only recognize prefixes declared in CSS, not those declared by the document language.) </div> <h3 class="heading settled heading" data-level=3.1 id=syntax><span class=secno>3.1 </span><span class=content> Syntax</span><a class=self-link href=#syntax></a></h3> <p> The syntax for the <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule is as follows (using the notation from the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/grammar.html">Grammar appendix of CSS 2.1</a> <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#css21 title=css21>[CSS21]</a>): <pre> namespace : NAMESPACE_SYM S* [namespace_prefix S*]? [STRING|URI] S* ';' S* ; namespace_prefix : IDENT ; </pre> <p> with the new token: <pre>@{N}{A}{M}{E}{S}{P}{A}{C}{E} {return NAMESPACE_SYM;}</pre> <p> Any <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rules must follow all @charset and @import rules and precede all other non-ignored at-rules and style rules in a style sheet. For CSS syntax this adds <code>[ namespace [S|CDO|CDC]* ]*</code> immediately after <code>[ import [S|CDO|CDC]* ]*</code> in the <code>stylesheet</code> grammar. <p> A syntactically invalid <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule (whether malformed or misplaced) must be <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#ignore">ignored</a>. A CSS <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#style-sheet">style sheet</a> containing an invalid <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule is not a <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#valid-style-sheet">valid style sheet</a>. <p> A URI string parsed from the <code>URI</code> syntax must be treated as a literal string: as with the <code>STRING</code> syntax, no URI-specific normalization is applied. <p> All strings—<wbr>including the empty string and strings representing invalid URIs—<wbr>are valid namespace names in <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> declarations. <h3 class="heading settled heading" data-level=3.2 id=scope><span class=secno>3.2 </span><span class=content> Scope</span><a class=self-link href=#scope></a></h3> <p> The namespace prefix is declared only within the style sheet in which its <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=@namespace>@namespace</span> rule appears. It is not declared in any style sheets importing or imported by that style sheet, nor in any other style sheets applying to the document. <h3 class="heading settled heading" data-level=3.3 id=prefixes><span class=secno>3.3 </span><span class=content> Declaring Prefixes</span><a class=self-link href=#prefixes></a></h3> <p> A <dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-export="" id=namespace-prefix>namespace prefix<a class=self-link href=#namespace-prefix></a></dfn>, once declared, represents the namespace for which it was declared and can be used to indicate the namespace of a namespace-qualified name. Namespace prefixes are, <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#counter">like CSS counter names</a>, case-sensitive. <p> If in the namespace declaration the namespace prefix is omitted, then the namespace so declared is the default namespace. The <dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-export="" id=default-namespace>default namespace<a class=self-link href=#default-namespace></a></dfn> may apply to names that have no explicit namespace prefix: modules that employ namespace prefixes must define in which contexts the default namespace applies. For example, following <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#xml-names title=xml-names>[XML-NAMES]</a>, in Selectors <a data-biblio-type=informative data-link-type=biblio href=#select title=select>[SELECT]</a> the default namespace applies to type selectors—<wbr>but it does not apply to attribute selectors. There is no default value for the default namespace: modules that assign unqualified names to the default namespace must define how those unqualified names are to be interpreted when no default namespace is declared. <p class=note> Note: Note that using default namespaces in conjunction with type selectors can cause UAs that support default namespaces and UAs that don’t support default namespaces to interpret selectors differently. <p> If a namespace prefix or default namespace is declared more than once only the last declaration shall be used. Declaring a namespace prefix or default namespace more than once is nonconforming. <h2 class="heading settled heading" data-level=4 id=css-qnames><span class=secno>4 </span><span class=content> CSS Qualified Names</span><a class=self-link href=#css-qnames></a></h2> <p> A <dfn data-dfn-type=dfn data-export="" id=css-qualified-name>CSS qualified name<a class=self-link href=#css-qualified-name></a></dfn> is a name explicitly located within (associated with) a namespace. To form a qualified name in CSS syntax, a namespace prefix that has been declared within scope is prepended to a local name (such as an element or attribute name), separated by a "vertical bar"(<code>|</code>, U+007C). The prefix, representing the namespace for which it has been declared, indicates the namespace of the local name. The prefix of a qualified name may be omitted to indicate that the name belongs to no namespace, i.e. that the namespace name part of the expanded name has no value. Some contexts (as defined by the host language) may allow the use of an asterisk (<code>*</code>, U+002A) as a wildcard prefix to indicate a name in any namespace, including no namespace. <div class=example> Given the namespace declarations: <pre> @namespace toto "http://toto.example.org"; @namespace "http://example.com/foo"; </pre> <p> In a context where the default namespace applies <dl> <dt><code>toto|A</code> <dd> represents the name <code>A</code> in the <code>http://toto.example.org</code> namespace. <dt><code>|B</code> <dd> represents the name <code>B</code> that belongs to no namespace. <dt><code>*|C</code> <dd> represents the name <code>C</code> in any namespace, including no namespace. <dt><code>D</code> <dd> represents the name <code>D</code> in the <code>http://example.com/foo</code> namespace. </dl> </div> <p> The syntax for the portion of a CSS qualified name before the local name is given below, both for qualified names that allow wildcard prefixes (<code>wqname</code>) and for qualified names that disallow wildcard prefixes (<code>qname</code>). (The syntax uses notation from the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/grammar.html">Grammar appendix of CSS 2.1</a>. <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#css21 title=css21>[CSS21]</a> Note this means that comments, but not white space, are implicitly allowed between tokens.): <pre> qname_prefix : namespace_prefix? '|' ; wqname_prefix : [ namespace_prefix? | '*' ] '|' ; qname : qname_prefix? ident ; wqname : wqname_prefix? ident ; wqwname : wqname_prefix? [ ident | '*' ] ; </pre> <p> CSS qualified names can be used in (for example) selectors and property values as described in other modules. Those modules must define handling of namespace prefixes that have not been properly declared. Such handling should treat undeclared namespace prefixes as a parsing error that will cause the selector or declaration (etc.) to be considered invalid and, in CSS, <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#ignore">ignored</a>. <div class=example> For example, the Selectors module <a data-biblio-type=informative data-link-type=biblio href=#select title=select>[SELECT]</a> defines a type selector with an undeclared namespace prefix to be an invalid selector, and CSS <a data-biblio-type=normative data-link-type=biblio href=#css21 title=css21>[CSS21]</a> requires style rules with an invalid selector to be completely ignored. </div> <h2 class="no-num heading settled heading" id=changes><span class=content> Changes</span><a class=self-link href=#changes></a></h2> <p> Changes made since the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/REC-css3-namespace-20110929/">29 September 2011 Recommendation</a>: <ul> <li>Added predefined <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=qname>qname</span>, <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=wqname>wqname</span>, and <span class=css data-link-type=maybe title=wqwname>wqwname</span> productions, to make those constructs easier for other specs to use. </ul> <h2 class="no-num heading settled heading" id=acks><span class=content> Acknowledgments</span><a class=self-link href=#acks></a></h2> <p> This draft borrows heavily from earlier drafts on CSS namespace support by Chris Lilley and by Peter Linss and early (unpublished) drafts on CSS and XML by Håkon Lie and Bert Bos, and XML Namespaces and CSS by Bert Bos and Steven Pemberton.
