nsIAccessible in Firefox 2.0

 A cross-platform interface that supports platform-specific 
 accessibility APIs like MSAA and ATK. Contains the sum of what's needed
 to support IAccessible as well as ATK's generic accessibility objects.
 Can also be used by in-process accessibility clients to get information
 about objects in the accessible tree. The accessible tree is a subset of 
 nodes in the DOM tree -- such as documents, focusable elements and text.
 Mozilla creates the implementations of nsIAccessible on demand.
 See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/ui/accessibility for more information.

 Relation Types -- most of these come from ATK's atkrelationtype.h
 RELATION_NULL:
 RELATION_CONTROLLED_BY:    Controlled by one or more target objects.
 RELATION_CONTROLLER_FOR:   Controller for one or more target objects.
 RELATION_LABEL_FOR:        Label for one or more target objects.
 RELATION_LABELLED_BY:      Labelled by one or more target objects.
 RELATION_MEMBER_OF:        Member of a group of one or more target objects.
 RELATION_NODE_CHILD_OF:    Cell in a treetable which is displayed because a
                            cell in the same col is expanded & identifies it.
 RELATION_FLOWS_TO:         Has content that flows logically to another
                            object in a sequential way, e.g. text flow.
 RELATION_FLOWS_FROM:       Has content that flows logically from another
                            object in a sequential way, e.g. text flow.
 RELATION_SUBWINDOW_OF:     Subwindow attached to a component but otherwise 
                            not connected in the UI hierarchy to that component.
 RELATION_EMBEDS:           Visually embeds another object's content, i.e.
                            this object's content flows around another's content.
 RELATION_EMBEDDED_BY:      Inverse of RELATION_EMBEDS; this object's content
                            is visually embedded in another object.
 RELATION_POPUP_FOR:        Popup for another object.
 RELATION_PARENT_WINDOW_OF: Parent window of another object.
 RELATION_DEFAULT_BUTTON:   Part of a form/dialog with a related default button.
 RELATION_DESCRIBED_BY:     Described by one or more target objects.
 RELATION_DESCRIPTION_FOR:  Description for one or more target objects.

Attributes

 Number of accessible children

readonly attribute long childCount

 Accessible description -- long text associated with this node

readonly attribute AString description

 Extended accessible states -- second bit field describing node

readonly attribute unsigned long extState

 Enumerated accessible role. The values depend on platform because of variations.
 See the ROLE_* constants defined later in this file.
 Widgets can use xhtml2:role to force the final role

readonly attribute unsigned long finalRole

 Accessible states -- bit field which describes boolean properties of node. 
 See the STATE_* constants defined later in this file.
 Widgets that use xhtml2:role can force the state using the attributes
 disabled, etc.

readonly attribute unsigned long finalState

 Accessible value -- a number or a secondary text equivalent for this node
 Widgets that use xhtml2:role can force a value using the valuenow attribute

readonly attribute AString finalValue

 First child in accessible tree

readonly attribute nsIAccessible firstChild

 Focused accessible child of node

readonly attribute nsIAccessible focusedChild

 Help text associated with node

readonly attribute AString help

 The 0-based index of this accessible in its parent's list of children,
 or -1 if this accessible does not have a parent.

readonly attribute long indexInParent

 Provides localized string of global keyboard accelerator, such
 as Ctrl+O for Open file

readonly attribute AString keyBinding

 Provides localized string of accesskey name, such as Alt+D.
 The modifier may be affected by user and platform preferences.
 Usually alt+letter, or just the letter alone for menu items.

readonly attribute AString keyboardShortcut

 Last child in accessible tree

readonly attribute nsIAccessible lastChild

 Accessible name -- the main text equivalent for this node

attribute AString name

 Next sibling in accessible tree

readonly attribute nsIAccessible nextSibling

 The number of accessible actions associated with this accessible

readonly attribute PRUint8 numActions

 Parent node in accessible tree.

readonly attribute nsIAccessible parent

 Previous sibling in accessible tree

readonly attribute nsIAccessible previousSibling

 Natural enumerated accessible role for the associated element.
 The values depend on platform because of variations.
 See the ROLE_* constants defined later in this file.
 This does not take into account xhtml2:role as the finalRole does.

readonly attribute unsigned long role

Methods

 Add this accessible to the current selection

void addSelection()

 Perform the accessible action at the given zero-based index
 Action number 0 is the default action

void doAction(in PRUint8 index)

 Extend the current selection from its current accessible anchor node
 to this accessible

void extendSelection()

 Accessible node geometrically above this one

nsIAccessible getAccessibleAbove()

 Accessible node geometrically below this one

nsIAccessible getAccessibleBelow()

 Accessible node related to this one

nsIAccessible getAccessibleRelated(in unsigned long aRelationType)

 Accessible node geometrically to the left of this one

nsIAccessible getAccessibleToLeft()

 Accessible node geometrically to the right of this one

nsIAccessible getAccessibleToRight()

 The name of the accessible action at the given zero-based index

AString getActionName(in PRUint8 index)

void getBounds(out long x, out long y, out long width, out long height)

nsIAccessible getChildAt(in long aChildIndex)

 Accessible child which contains the coordinate at x,y

nsIAccessible getChildAtPoint(in long x, in long y)

 Get a pointer to accessibility interface for this node, which is specific 
 to the OS/accessibility toolkit we're running on.

[noscript] void getNativeInterface(out voidPtr aOutAccessible)

 Remove this accessible from the current selection

void removeSelection()

 Focus this accessible node,
 The state STATE_FOCUSABLE indicates whether this node is normally focusable.
 It is the callers responsibility to determine whether this node is focusable.
 accTakeFocus on a node that is not normally focusable (such as a table),
 will still set focus on that node, although normally that will not be visually 
 indicated in most style sheets.

void takeFocus()

 Select this accessible node only

void takeSelection()
