iTunes User Sues Apple For Only Letting

01/05/2005 10:30 PM
Well, this should be interesting. An "unhappy" iTunes user is now suing Apple for antitrust violations, claiming that they broke antitrust laws by only allowing their music to play on iPods -- blocking out other music players from the market. It's unlikely that he'll win the lawsuit, and honestly, it sounds more like a setup by an Apple competitor than just some individual who feels wronged. The guy in question says he was "forced" to buy an iPod in order to make use of the music he bought on iTunes, but the courts will likely point out that he could have gone to a competing online music store. Of course, what this really highlights is how some of these copy protection issues are building fragmented worlds. How would people react if the CDs they bought at Tower Records could only play on Tower-branded radios? Thanks to the way the industry views intellectual property online, the end result is a lot of competing separate worlds, which actively discourages use.

The Pentagon certainly isn't known for efficiency in their business processes, and no one ever said they needed to be run in the same manner as a profitable business, but the fact that they can't even track the thousands of different databases and logistics systems that are supposed to keep track of all of their purchases and assets is a bit worrisome. At the very least it's a huge recipe for fraud, with plenty of already greedy enough defense contractors clearly abusing the system for great profit to themselves -- at the expense of our own tax dollars.

More On Extending HTML


More On Extending HTML 07/08/2004 09:02 PM

I received more feedback on our HTML extensions, and some people made some good suggestions for how Safari should handle extensions to HTML. There were essentially three good ideas that were pointed out to me (along with a host of really bad ones).

Tim Bray suggested namespacing the extensions we've made to HTML. Eric Meyer suggested this as well. The idea would be that you could feed your HTML with the namespace declaration to an HTML parser and it would essentially have namespace support and understand how to handle the namespaced content. This is my favorite of the suggestions, since the namespace could effectively be hacked and only allowed on the root element. This seems like a minor cut-and-paste requirement to impose on Dashboard authors that want to use the new tags and attributes.

A second suggestion was to make a special DTD. I don't like this suggestion as much, since doctypes are used for setting browser modes, and I don't want to impose a particular mode on Dashboard widget authors.

A third suggestion was to restrict these tags and attributes only to Dashboard. This seems reasonable on the surface but would be difficult to do in practice, and besides, as I stated before, we actually are submitting these extensions to WHAT-WG for review anyway. This means the intent is for them to find their way into HTML eventually.

I'll look into what it would take to implement the first suggestion. It sounds to me like people will be satisfied with such a solution. I do wonder what to do with the new values to the type attribute on the input element. Search and range are new values to an already-existing attribute, and so I'm not sure how to mollify people on this one. Breaking those out into new attributes not only makes little sense to me, since it allows for a contradictory type clash (by specifying multiple attributes), but it also would complicate the code in WebCore that routinely switches on the type of the input element.

Going forward, I'm curious what the reaction will be as WHAT-WG works to further extend HTML. Assuming that the W3C has really decreed HTML4 to be obsolete, what happens when a proposal is made by multiple browser vendors to extend it? If the W3C rejects it, should the browser vendors be forced to keep their content namespaced forever? I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Extending SVG for XForms


Extending SVG for XForms 05/23/2002 10:39 PM

On Extending HTML


On Extending HTML 07/07/2004 04:10 PM

A few people have written me expressing concern over the extensions that Apple has made to HTML in order to support Safari RSS and Dashboard. I wanted to explain what we've done and hopefully clear up any confusion.

Let's start by talking about the contenteditable attribute and drag and drop. I bring these up first because what we implemented is exactly compatible with WinIE. In the case of contenteditable, we have no choice regarding syntax. We have received many bugs to support already-deployed systems that use contenteditable, and so we are constrained syntactically. Had we gone our own route, we still wouldn't work with the Web pages that use it, and it would be unrealistic to expect all of those Web sites to modify their systems simply to support Safari. This is especially true if you consider that Web sites frequently deploy systems that they didn't write in the first place, and so they wouldn't know how to modify them anyway.

Drag and drop is a similar situation. Web sites use it, and so we need to support it. We already support dozens of WinIE-invented properties, many of which are incredibly useful and well-specified, so I'm a bit confused as to why contenteditable and drag and drop are creating any stir at all. These attributes are no different from innerHTML or offsetWidth and offsetHeight or innerText or oncontextmenu or any one of the other WinIE extensions that Safari has supported since its first beta 18 months ago.

We have a phrase we like to use here on the Safari team, and that's "real-world standards compliance." What that means is that where possible we attempt to be fully compatible with the W3C standards, but we also want to support the real-world standards, i.e., extensions that for better or worse have become de facto standards. If you really do believe we should not have implemented contenteditable, then you are simply out of touch with reality.

As for the Dashboard extensions that involve changing HTML, there are exactly four of them. We've tried to keep the number to a minimum, but this functionality was required in order to build the gadgets. Let me outline them again:

(1) Slider controls. This is not only used by Dashboard but also by Safari RSS, and so this feature cannot be restricted only to the Dashboard.
(2) Search fields. Again, this feature is used by Dashboard and Safari RSS.
(3) The new composite attribute on the img tag. This feature is used only by Dashboard.
(4) The canvas tag. This feature is used only by Dashboard.

The principal complaint seems to be that we should not be polluting HTML. However, I'm not sure what we should have done instead. I can outline some of your suggestions and explain why we discarded them.

First, it was suggested that the widgets be written in XML rather than HTML and that all of the new tags and attributes be namespaced. However, this would have dramatically increased the complexity of crafting Dashboard widgets. People know how to write HTML, but most of those same people have never written an XML file, and namespaces are a point of confusion.

In addition there are technical hurdles to the use of XML. Every modern browser, including Mozilla and Safari, is much worse at XHTML than at HTML. People tend to foolishly gloss over the transition from one to the other, thinking that code you write for one will "just work" when you switch to XHTML. That simply isn't true. If you look at XHTML in both Mozilla and Safari and compare it to HTML, you'll see that it's slower, non-incremental, and generally buggier than HTML.

An example of a feature that won't "just work" when moved from HTML to XHTML is editing. The serialization model is totally different for XHTML, and HTML elements that have to be written out when you get the raw markup must know to do so using XML-style syntax in XHTML documents. Editing must be able to serialize namespaces, and ideally even preserve the namespace prefixes that were used at various points in the document as well as the use of default namespaces as set up by the author. Right off the bat I've outlined a challenging editing feature that only exists in the XHTML world. There are many more examples of these kinds of problems.

The perfect example of a widget that combines editing with HTML extensions is the Stickies widget. We simply could not have moved this widget to XHTML without doing an enormous amount of XML work.

A second complaint leveled against us was over the canvas tag, namely that it should have been done using SVG. My response to this is simple. Go to the w3c Web site and print out the SVG specification. Twenty minutes later, after you've killed a few dozen trees, then maybe you'll have an appreciation for why this wasn't practical.

Remember that SVG would have forced the use of XHTML, which had all the problems outlined above. Now add to that time the amount of work that would be required to get even a rudimentary SVG implementation going. Now factor in the time it would have taken to make that implementation perform well enough when compared with a programmatic counterpart like the canvas. Canvas only took a handful of days to implement. SVG would take months to implement.

In other words, in an ideal world where we had two years to craft Dashboard, maybe we could have used XHTML and SVG, but we aren't living in that ideal world. We can basically manage only one "huge" layout engine feature in a development cycle, and given our developer feedback the choice of HTML editing as the feature to focus on this cycle was clear. We would still love to implement SVG and XSLT and other great technologies in the future, but we simply can't do everything at once.

Finally we have submitted all of our extensions to the WHAT-WG for review. The slider in particular is already in the Web Forms draft. It is our hope that these HTML extensions will ultimately be standardized by a working group, but I wanted to emphasize that we are working with other browser vendors such as Opera and Mozilla to ensure that these extensions are implementable in those browsers and that these extensions can be standardized. We are not simply off "doing our own thing."

Connexion by Boeing and Singapore's StarHub connect network billing: It's been a dream of mine since I first heard about Connexion that the business traveler of tomorrow checks their email at home over Wi-Fi (using DSL backhaul), handles work in the back of the cab to the airport by 2.5G/3G, logs into the airport Wi-Fi network, and hops on the plane to use in-flight Wi-Fi--all with a single account. StarHub and Connexion's memo of understanding is the first step in seamless connectivity. The kinds of business travelers who routinely fly distances that will be served by Connexion are the kind who want (and possibly need) continuous connectivity to keep their role in the business information flow active. This doesn't mean you want to sit next to them, on the plane, of course, especially once in-flight cellular becomes a reality....

Extending the web with metadata profiles


Extending the web with metadata profiles 09/16/2004 03:39 PM
If you hang around on web-related mailing lists long enough, you start getting the idea that the future is full of metadata. Now, this metadata may or may not be XML, or it may or may not be RDF or OWL or a dozen other technologies with impressive-sounding words like “ontology” in their names. It may or may not be the long-dreamt-of (and often derided) “Semantic Web.” In fact, it may or may not be a dozen different buzzwords, and it may or may not be a good thing. But whatever the future is, it will definitely be full of metadata; on this the experts agree. To my mind there’s a problem with this: the argument always seems to depend on technologies which don’t exist or aren’t quite ready yet, so it always falls back to talking about how things will be “in the future,” which may never get here. Luckily, there's an easy way to add oodles of metadata to your documents right this minute, without having to learn anything more complicated than trusty old HTML 4.01. If it catches on, “the future” might get here a lot sooner than expected.
