An img is always in one of the following states:

Unavailable

The user agent hasn't obtained any image data.

Partially available

The user agent has obtained some of the image data.

Completely available

The user agent has obtained all of the image data and at least the image dimensions are available.

Broken

The user agent has obtained all of the image data that it can, but it cannot even decode the image enough to get the image dimensions (e.g. the image is corrupted, or the format is not supported, or no data could be obtained).

When an img element is either in the partially available state or in the completely available state, it is said to be available.

An img element is initially unavailable.

When an img element is available, it provides a paint source whose width is the image's intrinsic width, whose height is the image's intrinsic height, and whose appearance is the intrinsic appearance of the image.

In a browsing context where scripting is disabled, user agents may obtain images immediately or on demand. In a browsing context where scripting is enabled, user agents must obtain images immediately.

A user agent that obtains images immediately must synchronously update the image data of an img element whenever that element is created with a src attribute. A user agent that obtains images immediately must also synchronously update the image data of an img element whenever that element has its src or crossorigin attribute set, changed, or removed.

A user agent that obtains images on demand must update the image data of an img element whenever it needs the image data (i.e. on demand), but only if the img element has a src attribute, and only if the img element is in the unavailable state. When an img element's src or crossorigin attribute set, changed, or removed, if the user agent only obtains images on demand, the img element must return to the unavailable state.

Each img element has a last selected source, which must initially be null, and a current pixel density, which must initially be undefined.

When an img element has a current pixel density that is not 1.0, the element's image data must be treated as if its resolution, in device pixels per CSS pixels, was the current pixel density.

For example, if the current pixel density is 3.125, that means that there are 300 device pixels per CSS inch, and thus if the image data is 300x600, it has an intrinsic dimension of 96 CSS pixels by 192 CSS pixels.

Each Document object must have a list of available images. Each image in this list is identified by a tuple consisting of an absolute URL, a CORS settings attribute mode, and, if the mode is not No CORS, an origin. User agents may copy entries from one Document object's list of available images to another at any time (e.g. when the Document is created, user agents can add to it all the images that are loaded in other Documents), but must not change the keys of entries copied in this way when doing so. User agents may also remove images from such lists at any time (e.g. to save memory).

When the user agent is to update the image data of an img element, it must run the following steps:

1. Return the img element to the unavailable state.

2. If an instance of the fetching algorithm is still running for this element, then abort that algorithm, discarding any pending tasks generated by that algorithm.

3. Forget the img element's current image data, if any.

4. If the user agent cannot support images, or its support for images has been disabled, then abort these steps.

5. Otherwise, if the element has a src attribute specified and its value is not the empty string, let selected source be the value of the element's src attribute, and selected pixel density be 1.0. Otherwise, let selected source be null and selected pixel density be undefined.

6. Let the img element's last selected source be selected source and the img element's current pixel density be selected pixel density.

7. If selected source is not null, run these substeps:

   1. Resolve selected source, relative to the element. If that is not successful, abort these steps.

   2. Let key be a tuple consisting of the resulting absolute URL, the img element's crossorigin attribute's mode, and, if that mode is not No CORS, the Document object's origin.

   3. If the list of available images contains an entry for key, then set the img element to the completely available state, update the presentation of the image appropriately, queue a task to fire a simple event named load at the img element, and abort these steps.

8. Asynchronously await a stable state, allowing the task that invoked this algorithm to continue. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm until the algorithm says the synchronous section has ended. (Steps in synchronous sections are marked with ⌛.)

9. ⌛ If another instance of this algorithm for this img element was started after this instance (even if it aborted and is no longer running), then abort these steps.

   Only the last instance takes effect, to avoid multiple requests when, for example, the src and crossorigin attributes are all set in succession.

10. ⌛ If selected source is null, then set the element to the broken state, queue a task to fire a simple event named error at the img element, and abort these steps.

11. ⌛ Queue a task to fire a progress event named loadstart at the img element.

12. ⌛ Do a potentially CORS-enabled fetch of the absolute URL that resulted from the earlier step, with the mode being the current state of the element's crossorigin content attribute, the origin being the origin of the img element's Document, and the default origin behaviour set to taint.

    The resource obtained in this fashion, if any, is the img element's image data. It can be either CORS-same-origin or CORS-cross-origin; this affects the origin of the image itself (e.g. when used on a canvas).

    Fetching the image must delay the load event of the element's document until the task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource has been fetched (defined below) has been run.

    This, unfortunately, can be used to perform a rudimentary port scan of the user's local network (especially in conjunction with scripting, though scripting isn't actually necessary to carry out such an attack). User agents may implement cross-origin access control policies that are stricter than those described above to mitigate this attack, but unfortunately such policies are typically not compatible with existing Web content.

    If the resource is CORS-same-origin, each task that is queued by the networking task source while the image is being fetched must fire a progress event named progress at the img element.

13. End the synchronous section, continuing the remaining steps asynchronously, but without missing any data from the fetch algorithm.

14. As soon as possible, jump to the first applicable entry from the following list:

    If the resource type is multipart/x-mixed-replace

    The next task that is queued by the networking task source while the image is being fetched must set the img element's state to partially available.

    Each task that is queued by the networking task source while the image is being fetched must update the presentation of the image, but as each new body part comes in, it must replace the previous image. Once one body part has been completely decoded, the user agent must set the img element to the completely available state and queue a task to fire a simple event named load at the img element.

    The progress and loadend events are not fired for multipart/x-mixed-replace image streams.

    If the resource type and data corresponds to a supported image format, as described below

    The next task that is queued by the networking task source while the image is being fetched must set the img element's state to partially available.

    That task, and each subsequent task, that is queued by the networking task source while the image is being fetched must update the presentation of the image appropriately (e.g. if the image is a progressive JPEG, each packet can improve the resolution of the image).

    Furthermore, the last task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource has been fetched must additionally run the steps for the matching entry in the following list:

    If the download was successful and the user agent was able to determine the image's width and height

    1. Set the img element to the completely available state.

    2. Add the image to the list of available images using the key key.

    3. If the resource is CORS-same-origin: fire a progress event named load at the img element.

       If the resource is CORS-cross-origin: fire a simple event named load at the img element.

    4. If the resource is CORS-same-origin: fire a progress event named loadend at the img element.

       If the resource is CORS-cross-origin: fire a simple event named loadend at the img element.

    そうでなければ

    1. Set the img element to the broken state.

    2. If the resource is CORS-same-origin: fire a progress event named load at the img element.

       If the resource is CORS-cross-origin: fire a simple event named load at the img element.

    3. If the resource is CORS-same-origin: fire a progress event named loadend at the img element.

       If the resource is CORS-cross-origin: fire a simple event named loadend at the img element.

    そうでなければ

    Either the image data is corrupted in some fatal way such that the image dimensions cannot be obtained, or the image data is not in a supported file format; the user agent must set the img element to the broken state, abort the fetching algorithm, discarding any pending tasks generated by that algorithm, and then queue a task to first fire a simple event named error at the img element and then fire a simple event named loadend at the img element.

While a user agent is running the above algorithm for an element x, there must be a strong reference from the element's Document to the element x, even if that element is not in its Document.

When an img element is in the completely available state and the user agent can decode the media data without errors, then the img element is said to be fully decodable.

Whether the image is fetched successfully or not (e.g. whether the response code was a 2xx code or equivalent) must be ignored when determining the image's type and whether it is a valid image.

This allows servers to return images with error responses, and have them displayed.

The user agent should apply the image sniffing rules to determine the type of the image, with the image's associated Content-Type headers giving the official type. If these rules are not applied, then the type of the image must be the type given by the image's associated Content-Type headers.

User agents must not support non-image resources with the img element (e.g. XML files whose root element is an HTML element). User agents must not run executable code (e.g. scripts) embedded in the image resource. User agents must only display the first page of a multipage resource (e.g. a PDF file). User agents must not allow the resource to act in an interactive fashion, but should honor any animation in the resource.

This specification does not specify which image types are to be supported.

What an img element represents depends on the src attribute and the alt attribute.

If the src attribute is set and the alt attribute is set to the empty string

The image is either decorative or supplemental to the rest of the content, redundant with some other information in the document.

If the image is available and the user agent is configured to display that image, then the element represents the element's image data.

Otherwise, the element represents nothing, and may be omitted completely from the rendering. User agents may provide the user with a notification that an image is present but has been omitted from the rendering.

If the src attribute is set and the alt attribute is set to a value that isn't empty

The image is a key part of the content; the alt attribute gives a textual equivalent or replacement for the image.

If the image is available and the user agent is configured to display that image, then the element represents the element's image data.

Otherwise, the element represents the text given by the alt attribute. User agents may provide the user with a notification that an image is present but has been omitted from the rendering.

If the src attribute is set and the alt attribute is not

There is no textual equivalent of the image available.

If the image is available and the user agent is configured to display that image, then the element represents the element's image data.

Otherwise, the user agent should display some sort of indicator that there is an image that is not being rendered, and may, if requested by the user, or if so configured, or when required to provide contextual information in response to navigation, provide caption information for the image, derived as follows:

1. If the image is a descendant of a figure element that has a child figcaption element, and, ignoring the figcaption element and its descendants, the figure element has no Text node descendants other than inter-element whitespace, and no embedded content descendant other than the img element, then the contents of the first such figcaption element are the caption information; abort these steps.

2. There is no caption information.

If the src attribute is not set and either the alt attribute is set to the empty string or the alt attribute is not set at all

The element represents nothing.

そうでなければ

The element represents the text given by the alt attribute.

The alt attribute does not represent advisory information. User agents must not present the contents of the alt attribute in the same way as content of the title attribute.

While user agents are encouraged to repair cases of missing alt attributes, authors must not rely on such behavior. Requirements for providing text to act as an alternative for images are described in detail below.

The contents of img elements, if any, are ignored for the purposes of rendering.

The alt, src IDL attributes must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name.

The crossOrigin IDL attribute must reflect the crossorigin content attribute, limited to only known values.

The useMap IDL attribute must reflect the usemap content attribute.

The isMap IDL attribute must reflect the ismap content attribute.

The IDL attributes width and height must return the rendered width and height of the image, in CSS pixels, if the image is being rendered, and is being rendered to a visual medium; or else the intrinsic width and height of the image, in CSS pixels, if the image is available but not being rendered to a visual medium; or else 0, if the image is not available. [CSS]

On setting, they must act as if they reflected the respective content attributes of the same name.

The IDL attributes naturalWidth and naturalHeight must return the intrinsic width and height of the image, in CSS pixels, if the image is available, or else 0. [CSS]

The IDL attribute complete must return true if any of the following conditions is true:

• The src attribute is omitted.
• The final task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource has been fetched has been queued.
• The img element is completely available.
• The img element is broken.

Otherwise, the attribute must return false.

The value of complete can thus change while a script is executing.

A constructor is provided for creating HTMLImageElement objects (in addition to the factory methods from DOM such as createElement()): Image(width, height). When invoked as a constructor, this must return a new HTMLImageElement object (a new img element). If the width argument is present, the new object's width content attribute must be set to width. If the height argument is also present, the new object's height content attribute must be set to height. The element's document must be the active document of the browsing context of the Window object on which the interface object of the invoked constructor is found.

4.7.1.1.21 Guidance for markup generators

Markup generators (such as WYSIWYG authoring tools) should, wherever possible, obtain a text alternative from their users. However, it is recognized that in many cases, this will not be possible.

For images that are the sole contents of links, markup generators should examine the link target to determine the title of the target, or the URL of the target, and use information obtained in this manner as the text alternative.

For images that have captions, markup generators should use the figure and figcaption elements to provide the image's caption.

As a last resort, implementors should either set the alt attribute to the empty string, under the assumption that the image is a purely decorative image that doesn't add any information but is still specific to the surrounding content, or omit the alt attribute altogether, under the assumption that the image is a key part of the content.

Markup generators may specify a generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt attribute on img elements for which they have been unable to obtain a text alternative and for which they have therefore omitted the alt attribute. The value of this attribute must be the empty string. Documents containing such attributes are not conforming, but conformance checkers will silently ignore this error.

This is intended to avoid markup generators from being pressured into replacing the error of omitting the alt attribute with the even more egregious error of providing phony text alternatives, because state-of-the-art automated conformance checkers cannot distinguish phony text alternatives from correct text alternatives.

Markup generators should generally avoid using the image's own file name as the text alternative. Similarly, markup generators should avoid generating text alternatives from any content that will be equally available to presentation user agents (e.g. Web browsers).

This is because once a page is generated, it will typically not be updated, whereas the browsers that later read the page can be updated by the user, therefore the browser is likely to have more up-to-date and finely-tuned heuristics than the markup generator did when generating the page.

4.7.1.1.22 Guidance for conformance checkers

A conformance checker must report the lack of an alt attribute as an error unless one of the conditions listed below applies:

• The img element is in a figure element that satisfies the conditions described above.

• The img element has a (non-conforming) generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt attribute whose value is the empty string. A conformance checker that is not reporting the lack of an alt attribute as an error must also not report the presence of the empty generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt attribute as an error. (This case does not represent a case where the document is conforming, only that the generator could not determine appropriate alternative text — validators are not required to show an error in this case, because such an error might encourage markup generators to include bogus alternative text purely in an attempt to silence validators. Naturally, conformance checkers may report the lack of an alt attribute as an error even in the presence of the generator-unable-to-provide-required-alt attribute; for example, there could be a user option to report all conformance errors even those that might be the more or less inevitable result of using a markup generator.)

When an iframe element is inserted into a document, the user agent must create a nested browsing context, and then process the iframe attributes for the "first time".

When an iframe element is removed from a document, the user agent must discard the nested browsing context.

This happens without any unload events firing (the nested browsing context and its Document are discarded, not unloaded).

Whenever an iframe element with a nested browsing context has its srcdoc attribute set, changed, or removed, the user agent must process the iframe attributes.

Similarly, whenever an iframe element with a nested browsing context but with no srcdoc attribute specified has its src attribute set, changed, or removed, the user agent must process the iframe attributes.

When the user agent is to process the iframe attributes, it must run the first appropriate steps from the following list:

If the srcdoc attribute is specified

Navigate the element's child browsing context to a resource whose Content-Type is text/html, whose URL is about:srcdoc, and whose data consists of the value of the attribute. The resulting Document must be considered an iframe srcdoc document.

Otherwise, if the element has no src attribute specified, and the user agent is processing the iframe's attributes for the "first time"

Queue a task to run the iframe load event steps.

The task source for this task is the DOM manipulation task source.

そうでなければ

1. If the value of the src attribute is missing, or its value is the empty string, let url be the string "about:blank".

   Otherwise, resolve the value of the src attribute, relative to the iframe element.

   If that is not successful, then let url be the string "about:blank". Otherwise, let url be the resulting absolute URL.

2. If there exists an ancestor browsing context whose active document's address, ignoring fragment identifiers, is equal to url, then abort these steps.

3. Navigate the element's child browsing context to url.

Any navigation required of the user agent in the process the iframe attributes algorithm must be completed as an explicit self-navigation override and with the iframe element's document's browsing context as the source browsing context.

Furthermore, if the active document of the element's child browsing context before such a navigation was not completely loaded at the time of the new navigation, then the navigation must be completed with replacement enabled.

Similarly, if the child browsing context's session history contained only one Document when the process the iframe attributes algorithm was invoked, and that was the about:blank Document created when the child browsing context was created, then any navigation required of the user agent in that algorithm must be completed with replacement enabled.

When a Document in an iframe is marked as completely loaded, the user agent must synchronously run the iframe load event steps.

A load event is also fired at the iframe element when it is created if no other data is loaded in it.

Each Document has an iframe load in progress flag and a mute iframe load flag. When a Document is created, these flags must be unset for that Document.

The iframe load event steps are as follows:

1. Let child document be the active document of the iframe element's nested browsing context.

2. If child document has its mute iframe load flag set, abort these steps.

3. Set child document's iframe load in progress flag.

4. Fire a simple event named load at the iframe element.

5. Unset child document's iframe load in progress flag.

This, in conjunction with scripting, can be used to probe the URL space of the local network's HTTP servers. User agents may implement cross-origin access control policies that are stricter than those described above to mitigate this attack, but unfortunately such policies are typically not compatible with existing Web content.

When the iframe's browsing context's active document is not ready for post-load tasks, and when anything in the iframe is delaying the load event of the iframe's browsing context's active document, and when the iframe's browsing context is in the delaying load events mode, the iframe must delay the load event of its document.

If, during the handling of the load event, the browsing context in the iframe is again navigated, that will further delay the load event.

Whenever the name attribute is set, the nested browsing context's name must be changed to the new value. If the attribute is removed, the browsing context name must be set to the empty string.

When an iframe element with a sandbox attribute has its nested browsing context created (before the initial about:blank Document is created), and when an iframe element's sandbox attribute is set or changed while it has a nested browsing context, the user agent must parse the sandboxing directive using the attribute's value as the input, and the iframe element's nested browsing context's iframe sandboxing flag set as the output.

When an iframe element's sandbox attribute is removed while it has a nested browsing context, the user agent must empty the iframe element's nested browsing context's iframe sandboxing flag set as the output.

The IDL attributes src, srcdoc, name, and sandbox must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name.

The contentDocument IDL attribute must return the Document object of the active document of the iframe element's nested browsing context, if any and if its effective script origin is the same origin as the effective script origin specified by the incumbent settings object, or null otherwise.

The contentWindow IDL attribute must return the WindowProxy object of the iframe element's nested browsing context, if any, or null otherwise.

When the element is created with neither a src attribute nor a type attribute, and when attributes are removed such that neither attribute is present on the element anymore, and when the element has a media element ancestor, and when the element has an ancestor object element that is not showing its fallback content, any plugin instantiated for the element must be removed, and the embed element then represents nothing.

An embed element is said to be potentially active when the following conditions are all met simultaneously:

• The element is in a Document or was in a Document the last time the event loop reached step 1.
• The element's Document is fully active.
• The element has either a src attribute set or a type attribute set (or both).
• The element's src attribute is either absent or its value is not the empty string.
• The element is not a descendant of a media element.
• The element is not a descendant of an object element that is not showing its fallback content.
• The element is being rendered, or was being rendered the last time the event loop reached step 1.

Whenever an embed element that was not potentially active becomes potentially active, and whenever a potentially active embed element that is remaining potentially active and has its src attribute set, changed, or removed or its type attribute set, changed, or removed, the user agent must queue a task using the embed task source to run the embed element setup steps.

The embed element setup steps are as follows:

1. If another task has since been queued to run the embed element setup steps for this element, then abort these steps.

2. If the element has a src attribute set

   The user agent must resolve the value of the element's src attribute, relative to the element. If that is successful, the user agent should fetch the resulting absolute URL, from the element's browsing context scope origin if it has one The task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource has been fetched must run the following steps:

   1. If another task has since been queued to run the embed element setup steps for this element, then abort these steps.

   2. Determine the type of the content being embedded, as follows (stopping at the first substep that determines the type):

      1. If the element has a type attribute, and that attribute's value is a type that a plugin supports, then the value of the type attribute is the content's type.

      2. Otherwise, if applying the URL parser algorithm to the URL of the specified resource (after any redirects) results in a parsed URL whose path component matches a pattern that a plugin supports, then the content's type is the type that that plugin can handle.

         For example, a plugin might say that it can handle resources with path components that end with the four character string ".swf".

      3. Otherwise, if the specified resource has explicit Content-Type metadata, then that is the content's type.

      4. Otherwise, the content has no type and there can be no appropriate plugin for it.

   3. If the previous step determined that the content's type is image/svg+xml, then run the following substeps:

      1. If the embed element is not associated with a nested browsing context, associate the element with a newly created nested browsing context, and, if the element has a name attribute, set the browsing context name of the element's nested browsing context to the value of this attribute.

      2. Navigate the nested browsing context to the fetched resource, with replacement enabled, and with the embed element's document's browsing context as the source browsing context. (The src attribute of the embed element doesn't get updated if the browsing context gets further navigated to other locations.)

      3. The embed element now represents its associated nested browsing context.

   4. Otherwise, find and instantiate an appropriate plugin based on the content's type, and hand that plugin the content of the resource, replacing any previously instantiated plugin for the element. The embed element now represents this plugin instance.

   Whether the resource is fetched successfully or not (e.g. whether the response code was a 2xx code or equivalent) must be ignored when determining the content's type and when handing the resource to the plugin.

   This allows servers to return data for plugins even with error responses (e.g. HTTP 500 Internal Server Error codes can still contain plugin data).

   Fetching the resource must delay the load event of the element's document.

   If the element has no src attribute set

   The user agent should find and instantiate an appropriate plugin based on the value of the type attribute. The embed element now represents this plugin instance.

The embed element has no fallback content. If the user agent can't find a suitable plugin when attempting to find and instantiate one for the algorithm above, then the user agent must use a default plugin. This default could be as simple as saying "Unsupported Format".

Whenever an embed element that was potentially active stops being potentially active, any plugin that had been instantiated for that element must be unloaded.

When a plugin is to be instantiated but it cannot be secured and the sandboxed plugins browsing context flag is set on the embed element's Document's active sandboxing flag set, then the user agent must not instantiate the plugin, and must instead render the embed element in a manner that conveys that the plugin was disabled. The user agent may offer the user the option to override the sandbox and instantiate the plugin anyway; if the user invokes such an option, the user agent must act as if the conditions above did not apply for the purposes of this element.

Plugins that cannot be secured are disabled in sandboxed browsing contexts because they might not honor the restrictions imposed by the sandbox (e.g. they might allow scripting even when scripting in the sandbox is disabled). User agents should convey the danger of overriding the sandbox to the user if an option to do so is provided.

The user agent should pass the names and values of all the attributes of the embed element that have no namespace to the plugin used, when one is instantiated.

The HTMLEmbedElement object representing the element must expose the scriptable interface of the plugin instantiated for the embed element, if any. At a minimum, this interface must implement the legacy caller operation. (It is suggested that the default behavior of this legacy caller operation, e.g. the behavior of the default plugin's legacy caller operation, be to throw a NotSupportedError exception.)

The IDL attributes src and type each must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name.

<embed src="catgame.swf">

<embed src="catgame.swf" quality="high">

<object data="catgame.swf">
 <param name="quality" value="high">
</object>

Whenever one of the following conditions occur:

• the element is created,
• the element is popped off the stack of open elements of an HTML parser or XML parser,
• the element is not on the stack of open elements of an HTML parser or XML parser, and it is either inserted into a document or removed from a document,
• the element's Document changes whether it is fully active,
• one of the element's ancestor object elements changes to or from showing its fallback content,
• the element's classid attribute is set, changed, or removed,
• the element's classid attribute is not present, and its data attribute is set, changed, or removed,
• neither the element's classid attribute nor its data attribute are present, and its type attribute is set, changed, or removed,
• the element changes from being rendered to not being rendered, or vice versa,

...the user agent must queue a task to run the following steps to (re)determine what the object element represents. The task source for this task is the DOM manipulation task source. This task being queued or actively running must delay the load event of the element's document.

1. If the user has indicated a preference that this object element's fallback content be shown instead of the element's usual behavior, then jump to the step below labeled fallback.

   For example, a user could ask for the element's fallback content to be shown because that content uses a format that the user finds more accessible.

2. If the element has an ancestor media element, or has an ancestor object element that is not showing its fallback content, or if the element is not in a Document with a browsing context, or if the element's Document is not fully active, or if the element is still in the stack of open elements of an HTML parser or XML parser, or if the element is not being rendered, then jump to the step below labeled fallback.

3. If the classid attribute is present, and has a value that isn't the empty string, then: if the user agent can find a plugin suitable according to the value of the classid attribute, and either plugins aren't being sandboxed or that plugin can be secured, then that plugin should be used, and the value of the data attribute, if any, should be passed to the plugin. If no suitable plugin can be found, or if the plugin reports an error, jump to the step below labeled fallback.

4. If the data attribute is present and its value is not the empty string, then:

   1. If the type attribute is present and its value is not a type that the user agent supports, and is not a type that the user agent can find a plugin for, then the user agent may jump to the step below labeled fallback without fetching the content to examine its real type.

   2. Resolve the URL specified by the data attribute, relative to the element.

   3. If that failed, fire a simple event named error at the element, then jump to the step below labeled fallback.

   4. Fetch the resulting absolute URL, from the element's browsing context scope origin if it has one

      Fetching the resource must delay the load event of the element's document until the task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource has been fetched (defined next) has been run.

      For the purposes of the application cache networking model, this fetch operation is not for a child browsing context (though it might end up being used for one after all, as defined below).

   5. If the resource is not yet available (e.g. because the resource was not available in the cache, so that loading the resource required making a request over the network), then jump to the step below labeled fallback. The task that is queued by the networking task source once the resource is available must restart this algorithm from this step. Resources can load incrementally; user agents may opt to consider a resource "available" whenever enough data has been obtained to begin processing the resource.

   6. If the load failed (e.g. there was an HTTP 404 error, there was a DNS error), fire a simple event named error at the element, then jump to the step below labeled fallback.

   7. Determine the resource type, as follows:

      1. Let the resource type be unknown.

      2. If the object element has a type attribute and a typemustmatch attribute, and the resource has associated Content-Type metadata, and the type specified in the resource's Content-Type metadata is an ASCII case-insensitive match for the value of the element's type attribute, then let resource type be that type and jump to the step below labeled handler.

      3. If the object element has a typemustmatch attribute, jump to the step below labeled handler.

      4. If the user agent is configured to strictly obey Content-Type headers for this resource, and the resource has associated Content-Type metadata, then let the resource type be the type specified in the resource's Content-Type metadata, and jump to the step below labeled handler.

         This can introduce a vulnerability, wherein a site is trying to embed a resource that uses a particular plugin, but the remote site overrides that and instead furnishes the user agent with a resource that triggers a different plugin with different security characteristics.

      5. If there is a type attribute present on the object element, and that attribute's value is not a type that the user agent supports, but it is a type that a plugin supports, then let the resource type be the type specified in that type attribute, and jump to the step below labeled handler.

      6. Run the appropriate set of steps from the following list:

         If the resource has associated Content-Type metadata

         1. Let binary be false.

         2. If the type specified in the resource's Content-Type metadata is "text/plain", and the result of applying the rules for distinguishing if a resource is text or binary to the resource is that the resource is not text/plain, then set binary to true.

         3. If the type specified in the resource's Content-Type metadata is "application/octet-stream", then set binary to true.

         4. If binary is false, then let the resource type be the type specified in the resource's Content-Type metadata, and jump to the step below labeled handler.

         5. If there is a type attribute present on the object element, and its value is not application/octet-stream, then run the following steps:

            1. If the attribute's value is a type that a plugin supports, or the attribute's value is a type that starts with "image/" that is not also an XML MIME type, then let the resource type be the type specified in that type attribute.

            2. Jump to the step below labeled handler.

         Otherwise, if the resource does not have associated Content-Type metadata

         1. If there is a type attribute present on the object element, then let the tentative type be the type specified in that type attribute.

            Otherwise, let tentative type be the sniffed type of the resource.

         2. If tentative type is not application/octet-stream, then let resource type be tentative type and jump to the step below labeled handler.

      7. If applying the URL parser algorithm to the URL of the specified resource (after any redirects) results in a parsed URL whose path component matches a pattern that a plugin supports, then let resource type be the type that that plugin can handle.

         For example, a plugin might say that it can handle resources with path components that end with the four character string ".swf".

      It is possible for this step to finish, or for one of the substeps above to jump straight to the next step, with resource type still being unknown. In both cases, the next step will trigger fallback.

   8. Handler: Handle the content as given by the first of the following cases that matches:

      If the resource type is not a type that the user agent supports, but it is a type that a plugin supports

      If plugins are being sandboxed and the plugin that supports resource type cannot be secured, jump to the step below labeled fallback.

      Otherwise, the user agent should use the plugin that supports resource type and pass the content of the resource to that plugin. If the plugin reports an error, then jump to the step below labeled fallback.

      If the resource type is an XML MIME type, or if the resource type does not start with "image/"

      The object element must be associated with a newly created nested browsing context, if it does not already have one.

      If the URL of the given resource is not about:blank, the element's nested browsing context must then be navigated to that resource, with replacement enabled, and with the object element's document's browsing context as the source browsing context. (The data attribute of the object element doesn't get updated if the browsing context gets further navigated to other locations.)

      If the URL of the given resource is about:blank, then, instead, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named load at the object element. No load event is fired at the about:blank document itself.

      The object element represents the nested browsing context.

      If the name attribute is present, the browsing context name must be set to the value of this attribute; otherwise, the browsing context name must be set to the empty string.

      In certain situations, e.g. if the resource was fetched from an application cache but it is an HTML file with a manifest attribute that points to a different application cache manifest, the navigation of the browsing context will be restarted so as to load the resource afresh from the network or a different application cache. Even if the resource is then found to have a different type, it is still used as part of a nested browsing context: only the navigate algorithm is restarted, not this object algorithm.

      If the resource type starts with "image/", and support for images has not been disabled

      Apply the image sniffing rules to determine the type of the image.

      The object element represents the specified image. The image is not a nested browsing context.

      If the image cannot be rendered, e.g. because it is malformed or in an unsupported format, jump to the step below labeled fallback.

      そうでなければ

      The given resource type is not supported. Jump to the step below labeled fallback.

      If the previous step ended with the resource type being unknown, this is the case that is triggered.

   9. The element's contents are not part of what the object element represents.

   10. Once the resource is completely loaded, queue a task to fire a simple event named load at the element.

       The task source for this task is the DOM manipulation task source.

5. If the data attribute is absent but the type attribute is present, and the user agent can find a plugin suitable according to the value of the type attribute, and either plugins aren't being sandboxed or the plugin can be secured, then that plugin should be used. If these conditions cannot be met, or if the plugin reports an error, jump to the step below labeled fallback.

6. Fallback: The object element represents the element's children, ignoring any leading param element children. This is the element's fallback content. If the element has an instantiated plugin, then unload it.

When the algorithm above instantiates a plugin, the user agent should pass to the plugin used the names and values of all the attributes on the element, in the order they were added to the element, with the attributes added by the parser being ordered in source order, followed by a parameter named "PARAM" whose value is null, followed by all the names and values of parameters given by param elements that are children of the object element, in tree order. If the plugin supports a scriptable interface, the HTMLObjectElement object representing the element should expose that interface. The object element represents the plugin. The plugin is not a nested browsing context.

Plugins are considered sandboxed for the purpose of an object element if the sandboxed plugins browsing context flag is set on the object element's Document's active sandboxing flag set.

Due to the algorithm above, the contents of object elements act as fallback content, used only when referenced resources can't be shown (e.g. because it returned a 404 error). This allows multiple object elements to be nested inside each other, targeting multiple user agents with different capabilities, with the user agent picking the first one it supports.

Whenever the name attribute is set, if the object element has a nested browsing context, its name must be changed to the new value. If the attribute is removed, if the object element has a browsing context, the browsing context name must be set to the empty string.

Constraint validation: object elements are always barred from constraint validation.

The IDL attributes data, type and name each must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name. The typeMustMatch IDL attribute must reflect the typemustmatch content attribute. The useMap IDL attribute must reflect the usemap content attribute.

The contentDocument IDL attribute must return the Document object of the active document of the object element's nested browsing context, if any and if its effective script origin is the same origin as the effective script origin specified by the incumbent settings object, or null otherwise.

The contentWindow IDL attribute must return the WindowProxy object of the object element's nested browsing context, if it has one; otherwise, it must return null.

The willValidate, validity, and validationMessage attributes, and the checkValidity(), and setCustomValidity() methods, are part of the constraint validation API. The form IDL attribute is part of the element's forms API.

All object elements have a legacy caller operation. If the object element has an instantiated plugin that supports a scriptable interface that defines a legacy caller operation, then that must be the behavior of the object's legacy caller operation. Otherwise, the object's legacy caller operation must be to throw a NotSupportedError exception.

If both attributes are present, and if the parent element of the param is an object element, then the element defines a parameter with the given name-value pair.

If either the name or value of a parameter defined by a param element that is the child of an object element that represents an instantiated plugin changes, and if that plugin is communicating with the user agent using an API that features the ability to update the plugin when the name or value of a parameter so changes, then the user agent must appropriately exercise that ability to notify the plugin of the change.

The IDL attributes name and value must both reflect the respective content attributes of the same name.

If the specified resource is to be used, then, when the element is created or when the poster attribute is set, changed, or removed, the user agent must run the following steps to determine the element's poster frame (regardless of the value of the element's show poster flag):

1. If there is an existing instance of this algorithm running for this video element, abort that instance of this algorithm without changing the poster frame.

2. If the poster attribute's value is the empty string or if the attribute is absent, then there is no poster frame; abort these steps.

3. Resolve the poster attribute's value relative to the element. If this fails, then there is no poster frame; abort these steps.

4. Fetch the resulting absolute URL, from the element's Document's origin. This must delay the load event of the element's document.

5. If an image is thus obtained, the poster frame is that image. Otherwise, there is no poster frame.

---

A video element represents what is given for the first matching condition in the list below:

When no video data is available (the element's readyState attribute is either HAVE_NOTHING, or HAVE_METADATA but no video data has yet been obtained at all, or the element's readyState attribute is any subsequent value but the media resource does not have a video channel)

The video element represents its poster frame, if any, or else transparent black with no intrinsic dimensions.

When the video element is paused, the current playback position is the first frame of video, and the element's show poster flag is set

The video element represents its poster frame, if any, or else the first frame of the video.

When the video element is paused, and the frame of video corresponding to the current playback position is not available (e.g. because the video is seeking or buffering)

When the video element is neither potentially playing nor paused (e.g. when seeking or stalled)

The video element represents the last frame of the video to have been rendered.

When the video element is paused

The video element represents the frame of video corresponding to the current playback position.

Otherwise (the video element has a video channel and is potentially playing)

The video element represents the frame of video at the continuously increasing "current" position. When the current playback position changes such that the last frame rendered is no longer the frame corresponding to the current playback position in the video, the new frame must be rendered.

Which frame in a video stream corresponds to a particular playback position is defined by the video stream's format.

The video element also represents any text track cues whose text track cue active flag is set and whose text track is in the showing mode, and any audio from the media resource, at the current playback position.

Any audio associated with the media resource must, if played, be played synchronized with the current playback position, at the element's effective media volume.

In addition to the above, the user agent may provide messages to the user (such as "buffering", "no video loaded", "error", or more detailed information) by overlaying text or icons on the video or other areas of the element's playback area, or in another appropriate manner.

User agents that cannot render the video may instead make the element represent a link to an external video playback utility or to the video data itself.

When a video element's media resource has a video channel, the element provides a paint source whose width is the media resource's intrinsic width, whose height is the media resource's intrinsic height, and whose appearance is the frame of video corresponding to the current playback position, if that is available, or else (e.g. when the video is seeking or buffering) its previous appearance, if any, or else (e.g. because the video is still loading the first frame) blackness.

---

The intrinsic width and intrinsic height of the media resource are the dimensions of the resource in CSS pixels after taking into account the resource's dimensions, aspect ratio, clean aperture, resolution, and so forth, as defined for the format used by the resource. If an anamorphic format does not define how to apply the aspect ratio to the video data's dimensions to obtain the "correct" dimensions, then the user agent must apply the ratio by increasing one dimension and leaving the other unchanged.

The videoWidth IDL attribute must return the intrinsic width of the video in CSS pixels. The videoHeight IDL attribute must return the intrinsic height of the video in CSS pixels. If the element's readyState attribute is HAVE_NOTHING, then the attributes must return 0.

Whenever the intrinsic width or intrinsic height of the video changes (including, for example, because the selected video track was changed), if the element's readyState attribute is not HAVE_NOTHING, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named resize at the media element.

In the absence of style rules to the contrary, video content should be rendered inside the element's playback area such that the video content is shown centered in the playback area at the largest possible size that fits completely within it, with the video content's aspect ratio being preserved. Thus, if the aspect ratio of the playback area does not match the aspect ratio of the video, the video will be shown letterboxed or pillarboxed. Areas of the element's playback area that do not contain the video represent nothing.

In user agents that implement CSS, the above requirement can be implemented by using the style rule suggested in the rendering section.

The intrinsic width of a video element's playback area is the intrinsic width of the poster frame, if that is available and the element currently represents its poster frame; otherwise, it is the intrinsic width of the video resource, if that is available; otherwise the intrinsic width is missing.

The intrinsic height of a video element's playback area is the intrinsic height of the poster frame, if that is available and the element currently represents its poster frame; otherwise it is the intrinsic height of the video resource, if that is available; otherwise the intrinsic height is missing.

The default object size is a width of 300 CSS pixels and a height of 150 CSS pixels. [CSSIMAGES]

---

User agents should provide controls to enable or disable the display of closed captions, audio description tracks, and other additional data associated with the video stream, though such features should, again, not interfere with the page's normal rendering.

User agents may allow users to view the video content in manners more suitable to the user (e.g. full-screen or in an independent resizable window). As for the other user interface features, controls to enable this should not interfere with the page's normal rendering unless the user agent is exposing a user interface. In such an independent context, however, user agents may make full user interfaces visible, with, e.g., play, pause, seeking, and volume controls, even if the controls attribute is absent.

User agents may allow video playback to affect system features that could interfere with the user's experience; for example, user agents could disable screensavers while video playback is in progress.

---

The poster IDL attribute must reflect the poster content attribute.

When an audio element is potentially playing, it must have its audio data played synchronized with the current playback position, at the element's effective media volume.

When an audio element is not potentially playing, audio must not play for the element.

A constructor is provided for creating HTMLAudioElement objects (in addition to the factory methods from DOM such as createElement()): Audio(src). When invoked as a constructor, it must return a new HTMLAudioElement object (a new audio element). The element must have its preload attribute set to the literal value "auto". If the src argument is present, the object created must have its src content attribute set to the provided value, and the user agent must invoke the object's resource selection algorithm before returning. The element's document must be the active document of the browsing context of the Window object on which the interface object of the invoked constructor is found.

If a source element is inserted as a child of a media element that has no src attribute and whose networkState has the value NETWORK_EMPTY, the user agent must invoke the media element's resource selection algorithm.

The IDL attributes src, type, and media must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name.

   // replace <video> with its contents
   while (video.hasChildNodes()) {
     if (video.firstChild instanceof HTMLSourceElement)

     else
       video.parentNode.insertBefore(video.firstChild, video);
   }
   video.parentNode.removeChild(video);

If the element has a src attribute whose value is not the empty string and whose value, when the attribute was set, could be successfully resolved relative to the element, then the element's track URL is the resulting absolute URL. Otherwise, the element's track URL is the empty string.

If the element has a srclang attribute whose value is not the empty string, then the element's track language is the value of the attribute. Otherwise, the element has no track language.

If the element has a label attribute whose value is not the empty string, then the element's track label is the value of the attribute. Otherwise, the element's track label is an empty string.

The readyState attribute must return the numeric value corresponding to the text track readiness state of the track element's text track, as defined by the following list:

NONE (numeric value 0)

テキストトラックがロードされない状態。

LOADING (numeric value 1)

テキストトラックがロードしている状態。

LOADED (numeric value 2)

テキストトラックがロードされた状態。

ERROR (numeric value 3)

テキストトラックがロードに失敗した状態。

The track IDL attribute must, on getting, return the track element's text track's corresponding TextTrack object.

The src, srclang, label, and default IDL attributes must reflect the respective content attributes of the same name. The kind IDL attribute must reflect the content attribute of the same name, limited to only known values.

Except where otherwise explicitly specified, the task source for all the tasks queued in this section and its subsections is the media element event task source of the media element in question.

All media elements have an associated error status, which records the last error the element encountered since its resource selection algorithm was last invoked. The error attribute, on getting, must return the MediaError object created for this last error, or null if there has not been an error.

interface MediaError {
  const unsigned short MEDIA_ERR_ABORTED = 1;
  const unsigned short MEDIA_ERR_NETWORK = 2;
  const unsigned short MEDIA_ERR_DECODE = 3;
  const unsigned short MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED = 4;
  readonly attribute unsigned short code;
};

The code attribute of a MediaError object must return the code for the error, which must be one of the following:

If a src attribute of a media element is set or changed, the user agent must invoke the media element's media element load algorithm. (Removing the src attribute does not do this, even if there are source elements present.)

The src IDL attribute on media elements must reflect the content attribute of the same name.

The crossOrigin IDL attribute must reflect the crossorigin content attribute, limited to only known values.

The currentSrc IDL attribute is initially the empty string. Its value is changed by the resource selection algorithm defined below.

The canPlayType(type) method must return the empty string if type is a type that the user agent knows it cannot render or is the type "application/octet-stream"; it must return "probably" if the user agent is confident that the type represents a media resource that it can render if used in with this audio or video element; and it must return "maybe" otherwise. Implementors are encouraged to return "maybe" unless the type can be confidently established as being supported or not. Generally, a user agent should never return "probably" for a type that allows the codecs parameter if that parameter is not present.

As media elements interact with the network, their current network activity is represented by the networkState attribute. On getting, it must return the current network state of the element, which must be one of the following values:

The resource selection algorithm defined below describes exactly when the networkState attribute changes value and what events fire to indicate changes in this state.

All media elements have an autoplaying flag, which must begin in the true state, and a delaying-the-load-event flag, which must begin in the false state. While the delaying-the-load-event flag is true, the element must delay the load event of its document.

When the load() method on a media element is invoked, the user agent must run the media element load algorithm.

The media element load algorithm consists of the following steps.

1. Abort any already-running instance of the resource selection algorithm for this element.

2. If there are any tasks from the media element's media element event task source in one of the task queues, then remove those tasks.

   If there are any tasks that were queued by the resource selection algorithm (including the algorithms that it itself invokes) for this same media element from the DOM manipulation task source in one of the task queues, then remove those tasks.

   Basically, pending events and callbacks for the media element are discarded when the media element starts loading a new resource.

3. If the media element's networkState is set to NETWORK_LOADING or NETWORK_IDLE, queue a task to fire a simple event named abort at the media element.

4. If the media element's networkState is not set to NETWORK_EMPTY, then run these substeps:

   1. Queue a task to fire a simple event named emptied at the media element.

   2. If a fetching process is in progress for the media element, the user agent should stop it.

   3. Forget the media element's media-resource-specific tracks.

   4. If readyState is not set to HAVE_NOTHING, then set it to that state.

   5. If the paused attribute is false, then set it to true.

   6. If seeking is true, set it to false.

   7. Set the current playback position to 0.

      Set the official playback position to 0.

      If this changed the official playback position, then queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the media element.

   8. Set the initial playback position to 0.

   9. Set the timeline offset to Not-a-Number (NaN).

   10. Update the duration attribute to Not-a-Number (NaN).

       The user agent will not fire a durationchange event for this particular change of the duration.

5. Set the playbackRate attribute to the value of the defaultPlaybackRate attribute.

6. Set the error attribute to null and the autoplaying flag to true.

7. Invoke the media element's resource selection algorithm.

8. Playback of any previously playing media resource for this element stops.

The resource selection algorithm for a media element is as follows. This algorithm is always invoked synchronously, but one of the first steps in the algorithm is to return and continue running the remaining steps asynchronously, meaning that it runs in the background with scripts and other tasks running in parallel. In addition, this algorithm interacts closely with the event loop mechanism; in particular, it has synchronous sections (which are triggered as part of the event loop algorithm). Steps in such sections are marked with ⌛.

1. Set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_NO_SOURCE value.

2. Set the element's show poster flag to true.

3. Set the media element's delaying-the-load-event flag to true (this delays the load event).

4. Asynchronously await a stable state, allowing the task that invoked this algorithm to continue. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm until the algorithm says the synchronous section has ended. (Steps in synchronous sections are marked with ⌛.)

5. ⌛ If the media element's blocked-on-parser flag is false, then populate the list of pending text tracks.

6. ⌛ If the media element has a src attribute, then let mode be attribute.

   ⌛ Otherwise, if the media element does not have a src attribute but has a source element child, then let mode be children and let candidate be the first such source element child in tree order.

   ⌛ Otherwise the media element has neither a src attribute nor a source element child: set the networkState to NETWORK_EMPTY, and abort these steps; the synchronous section ends.

7. ⌛ Set the media element's networkState to NETWORK_LOADING.

8. ⌛ Queue a task to fire a simple event named loadstart at the media element.

9. If mode is attribute, then run these substeps:

   1. ⌛ If the src attribute's value is the empty string, then end the synchronous section, and jump down to the failed with attribute step below.

   2. ⌛ Let absolute URL be the absolute URL that would have resulted from resolving the URL specified by the src attribute's value relative to the media element when the src attribute was last changed.

   3. ⌛ If absolute URL was obtained successfully, set the currentSrc attribute to absolute URL.

   4. End the synchronous section, continuing the remaining steps asynchronously.

   5. If absolute URL was obtained successfully, run the resource fetch algorithm with absolute URL. If that algorithm returns without aborting this one, then the load failed.

   6. Failed with attribute: Reaching this step indicates that the media resource failed to load or that the given URL could not be resolved. Queue a task to run the following steps, using the DOM manipulation task source:

      1. Set the error attribute to a new MediaError object whose code attribute is set to MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED.

      2. Forget the media element's media-resource-specific tracks.

      3. Set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_NO_SOURCE value.

      4. Set the element's show poster flag to true.

      5. Fire a simple event named error at the media element.

      6. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   7. Wait for the task queued by the previous step to have executed.

   8. Abort these steps. Until the load() method is invoked or the src attribute is changed, the element won't attempt to load another resource.

   Otherwise, the source elements will be used; run these substeps:

   1. ⌛ Let pointer be a position defined by two adjacent nodes in the media element's child list, treating the start of the list (before the first child in the list, if any) and end of the list (after the last child in the list, if any) as nodes in their own right. One node is the node before pointer, and the other node is the node after pointer. Initially, let pointer be the position between the candidate node and the next node, if there are any, or the end of the list, if it is the last node.

      As nodes are inserted and removed into the media element, pointer must be updated as follows:

      If a new node is inserted between the two nodes that define pointer

      Let pointer be the point between the node before pointer and the new node. In other words, insertions at pointer go after pointer.

      If the node before pointer is removed

      Let pointer be the point between the node after pointer and the node before the node after pointer. In other words, pointer doesn't move relative to the remaining nodes.

      If the node after pointer is removed

      Let pointer be the point between the node before pointer and the node after the node before pointer. Just as with the previous case, pointer doesn't move relative to the remaining nodes.

      Other changes don't affect pointer.

   2. ⌛ Process candidate: If candidate does not have a src attribute, or if its src attribute's value is the empty string, then end the synchronous section, and jump down to the failed with elements step below.

   3. ⌛ Let absolute URL be the absolute URL that would have resulted from resolving the URL specified by candidate's src attribute's value relative to the candidate when the src attribute was last changed.

   4. ⌛ If absolute URL was not obtained successfully, then end the synchronous section, and jump down to the failed with elements step below.

   5. ⌛ If candidate has a type attribute whose value, when parsed as a MIME type (including any codecs described by the codecs parameter, for types that define that parameter), represents a type that the user agent knows it cannot render, then end the synchronous section, and jump down to the failed with elements step below.

   6. ⌛ If candidate has a media attribute whose value does not match the environment, then end the synchronous section, and jump down to the failed with elements step below.

   7. ⌛ Set the currentSrc attribute to absolute URL.

   8. End the synchronous section, continuing the remaining steps asynchronously.

   9. Run the resource fetch algorithm with absolute URL. If that algorithm returns without aborting this one, then the load failed.

   10. Failed with elements: Queue a task, using the DOM manipulation task source, to fire a simple event named error at the candidate element.

   11. Asynchronously await a stable state. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm until the algorithm says the synchronous section has ended. (Steps in synchronous sections are marked with ⌛.)

   12. ⌛ Forget the media element's media-resource-specific tracks.

   13. ⌛ Find next candidate: Let candidate be null.

   14. ⌛ Search loop: If the node after pointer is the end of the list, then jump to the waiting step below.

   15. ⌛ If the node after pointer is a source element, let candidate be that element.

   16. ⌛ Advance pointer so that the node before pointer is now the node that was after pointer, and the node after pointer is the node after the node that used to be after pointer, if any.

   17. ⌛ If candidate is null, jump back to the search loop step. Otherwise, jump back to the process candidate step.

   18. ⌛ Waiting: Set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_NO_SOURCE value.

   19. ⌛ Set the element's show poster flag to true.

   20. ⌛ Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   21. End the synchronous section, continuing the remaining steps asynchronously.

   22. Wait until the node after pointer is a node other than the end of the list. (This step might wait forever.)

   23. Asynchronously await a stable state. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm until the algorithm says the synchronous section has ended. (Steps in synchronous sections are marked with ⌛.)

   24. ⌛ Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag back to true (this delays the load event again, in case it hasn't been fired yet).

   25. ⌛ Set the networkState back to NETWORK_LOADING.

   26. ⌛ Jump back to the find next candidate step above.

The resource fetch algorithm for a media element and a given absolute URL is as follows:

1. Let the current media resource be the resource given by the absolute URL passed to this algorithm. This is now the element's media resource.

2. Remove all media-resource-specific text tracks from the media element's list of pending text tracks, if any.

3. Optionally, run the following substeps. This is the expected behavior if the user agent intends to not attempt to fetch the resource until the user requests it explicitly (e.g. as a way to implement the preload attribute's none keyword).

   1. Set the networkState to NETWORK_IDLE.

   2. Queue a task to fire a simple event named suspend at the element, using the DOM manipulation task source.

   3. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   4. Wait for the task to be run.

   5. Wait for an implementation-defined event (e.g. the user requesting that the media element begin playback).

   6. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag back to true (this delays the load event again, in case it hasn't been fired yet).

   7. Set the networkState to NETWORK_LOADING.

4. Perform a potentially CORS-enabled fetch of the current media resource's absolute URL, with the mode being the state of the media element's crossorigin content attribute, the origin being the origin of the media element's Document, and the default origin behaviour set to taint.

   The resource obtained in this fashion, if any, contains the media data. It can be CORS-same-origin or CORS-cross-origin; this affects whether subtitles referenced in the media data are exposed in the API and, for video elements, whether a canvas gets tainted when the video is drawn on it.

   While the load is not suspended (see below), every 350ms (±200ms) or for every byte received, whichever is least frequent, queue a task to fire a simple event named progress at the element.

   The stall timeout is a user-agent defined length of time, which should be about three seconds. When a media element that is actively attempting to obtain media data has failed to receive any data for a duration equal to the stall timeout, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named stalled at the element.

   User agents may allow users to selectively block or slow media data downloads. When a media element's download has been blocked altogether, the user agent must act as if it was stalled (as opposed to acting as if the connection was closed). The rate of the download may also be throttled automatically by the user agent, e.g. to balance the download with other connections sharing the same bandwidth.

   User agents may decide to not download more content at any time, e.g. after buffering five minutes of a one hour media resource, while waiting for the user to decide whether to play the resource or not, while waiting for user input in an interactive resource, or when the user navigates away from the page. When a media element's download has been suspended, the user agent must queue a task, using the DOM manipulation task source, to set the networkState to NETWORK_IDLE and fire a simple event named suspend at the element. If and when downloading of the resource resumes, the user agent must queue a task to set the networkState to NETWORK_LOADING. Between the queuing of these tasks, the load is suspended (so progress events don't fire, as described above).

   The preload attribute provides a hint regarding how much buffering the author thinks is advisable, even in the absence of the autoplay attribute.

   When a user agent decides to completely stall a download, e.g. if it is waiting until the user starts playback before downloading any further content, the element's delaying-the-load-event flag must be set to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   The user agent may use whatever means necessary to fetch the resource (within the constraints put forward by this and other specifications); for example, reconnecting to the server in the face of network errors, using HTTP range retrieval requests, or switching to a streaming protocol. The user agent must consider a resource erroneous only if it has given up trying to fetch it.

   This specification does not currently say whether or how to check the MIME types of the media resources, or whether or how to perform file type sniffing using the actual file data. Implementors differ in their intentions on this matter and it is therefore unclear what the right solution is. In the absence of any requirement here, the HTTP specification's strict requirement to follow the Content-Type header prevails ("Content-Type specifies the media type of the underlying data." ... "If and only if the media type is not given by a Content-Type field, the recipient MAY attempt to guess the media type via inspection of its content and./or the name extension(s) of the URI used to identify the resource.").

   The networking task source tasks to process the data as it is being fetched must, when appropriate, include the relevant substeps from the following list:

   If the media data cannot be fetched at all, due to network errors, causing the user agent to give up trying to fetch the resource

   If the media data can be fetched but is found by inspection to be in an unsupported format, or can otherwise not be rendered at all

   DNS errors, HTTP 4xx and 5xx errors (and equivalents in other protocols), and other fatal network errors that occur before the user agent has established whether the current media resource is usable, as well as the file using an unsupported container format, or using unsupported codecs for all the data, must cause the user agent to execute the following steps:

   1. The user agent should cancel the fetching process.

   2. Abort this subalgorithm, returning to the resource selection algorithm.

   If the media resource is found to have an audio track

   1. Create an AudioTrack object to represent the audio track.

   2. Update the media element's audioTracks attribute's AudioTrackList object with the new AudioTrack object.

   3. Fire a trusted event with the name addtrack, that does not bubble and is not cancelable, and that uses the TrackEvent interface, with the track attribute initialized to the new AudioTrack object, at this AudioTrackList object.

   If the media resource is found to have a video track

   1. Create a VideoTrack object to represent the video track.

   2. Update the media element's videoTracks attribute's VideoTrackList object with the new VideoTrack object.

   3. Fire a trusted event with the name addtrack, that does not bubble and is not cancelable, and that uses the TrackEvent interface, with the track attribute initialized to the new VideoTrack object, at this VideoTrackList object.

   Once enough of the media data has been fetched to determine the duration of the media resource, its dimensions, and other metadata

   This indicates that the resource is usable. The user agent must follow these substeps:

   1. Establish the media timeline for the purposes of the current playback position, the earliest possible position, and the initial playback position, based on the media data.

   2. Update the timeline offset to the date and time that corresponds to the zero time in the media timeline established in the previous step, if any. If no explicit time and date is given by the media resource, the timeline offset must be set to Not-a-Number (NaN).

   3. Set the current playback position and the official playback position to the earliest possible position.

   4. Update the duration attribute with the time of the last frame of the resource, if known, on the media timeline established above. If it is not known (e.g. a stream that is in principle infinite), update the duration attribute to the value positive Infinity.

      The user agent will queue a task to fire a simple event named durationchange at the element at this point.

   5. For video elements, set the videoWidth and videoHeight attributes, and queue a task to fire a simple event named resize at the media element.

      Further resize events will be fired if the dimensions subsequently change.

   6. Set the readyState attribute to HAVE_METADATA.

      A loadedmetadata DOM event will be fired as part of setting the readyState attribute to a new value.

   7. Let jumped be false.

   8. If the media element's default playback start position is greater than zero, then seek to that time, and let jumped be true.

   9. Let the media element's default playback start position be zero.

   10. If either the media resource or the address of the current media resource indicate a particular start time, then set the initial playback position to that time and, if jumped is still false, seek to that time and let jumped be true.

       For example, with media formats that support the Media Fragments URI fragment identifier syntax, the fragment identifier can be used to indicate a start position. [MEDIAFRAG]

   11. If either the media resource or the address of the current media resource indicate a particular set of audio or video tracks to enable, or if the user agent has information that would enable it to select specific tracks to improve the user's experience, then the relevant audio tracks must be enabled in the element's audioTracks object, and, of the relevant video tracks, the one that is listed first in the element's videoTracks object must be selected. All other tracks must be disabled.

       This could again be triggered by Media Fragments URI fragment identifier syntax, but it could also be triggered e.g. by the user agent selecting a 5.1 surround sound audio track over a stereo audio track. [MEDIAFRAG]

   12. If the media element has a current media controller, then: if jumped is true and the initial playback position, relative to the current media controller's timeline, is greater than the current media controller's media controller position, then seek the media controller to the media element's initial playback position, relative to the current media controller's timeline; otherwise, seek the media element to the media controller position, relative to the media element's timeline.

   Once the readyState attribute reaches HAVE_CURRENT_DATA, after the loadeddata event has been fired, set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   A user agent that is attempting to reduce network usage while still fetching the metadata for each media resource would also stop buffering at this point, following the rules described previously, which involve the networkState attribute switching to the NETWORK_IDLE value and a suspend event firing.

   The user agent is required to determine the duration of the media resource and go through this step before playing.

   Once the entire media resource has been fetched (but potentially before any of it has been decoded)

   Fire a simple event named progress at the media element.

   Set the networkState to NETWORK_IDLE and fire a simple event named suspend at the media element.

   If the user agent ever discards any media data and then needs to resume the network activity to obtain it again, then it must queue a task to set the networkState to NETWORK_LOADING.

   If the user agent can keep the media resource loaded, then the algorithm will continue to its final step below, which aborts the algorithm.

   If the connection is interrupted after some media data has been received, causing the user agent to give up trying to fetch the resource

   Fatal network errors that occur after the user agent has established whether the current media resource is usable (i.e. once the media element's readyState attribute is no longer HAVE_NOTHING) must cause the user agent to execute the following steps:

   1. The user agent should cancel the fetching process.

   2. Set the error attribute to a new MediaError object whose code attribute is set to MEDIA_ERR_NETWORK.

   3. Fire a simple event named error at the media element.

   4. Set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_IDLE value.

   5. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   6. Abort the overall resource selection algorithm.

   If the media data is corrupted

   Fatal errors in decoding the media data that occur after the user agent has established whether the current media resource is usable must cause the user agent to execute the following steps:

   1. The user agent should cancel the fetching process.

   2. Set the error attribute to a new MediaError object whose code attribute is set to MEDIA_ERR_DECODE.

   3. Fire a simple event named error at the media element.

   4. If the media element's readyState attribute has a value equal to HAVE_NOTHING, set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_EMPTY value, set the element's show poster flag to true, and fire a simple event named emptied at the element.

      Otherwise, set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_IDLE value.

   5. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   6. Abort the overall resource selection algorithm.

   If the media data fetching process is aborted by the user

   The fetching process is aborted by the user, e.g. because the user pressed a "stop" button, the user agent must execute the following steps. These steps are not followed if the load() method itself is invoked while these steps are running, as the steps above handle that particular kind of abort.

   1. The user agent should cancel the fetching process.

   2. Set the error attribute to a new MediaError object whose code attribute is set to MEDIA_ERR_ABORTED.

   3. Fire a simple event named abort at the media element.

   4. If the media element's readyState attribute has a value equal to HAVE_NOTHING, set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_EMPTY value, set the element's show poster flag to true, and fire a simple event named emptied at the element.

      Otherwise, set the element's networkState attribute to the NETWORK_IDLE value.

   5. Set the element's delaying-the-load-event flag to false. This stops delaying the load event.

   6. Abort the overall resource selection algorithm.

   If the media data can be fetched but has non-fatal errors or uses, in part, codecs that are unsupported, preventing the user agent from rendering the content completely correctly but not preventing playback altogether

   The server returning data that is partially usable but cannot be optimally rendered must cause the user agent to render just the bits it can handle, and ignore the rest.

   If the media resource is found to declare a media-resource-specific text track that the user agent supports

   If the media data is CORS-same-origin, run the steps to expose a media-resource-specific text track with the relevant data.

   Cross-origin videos do not expose their subtitles, since that would allow attacks such as hostile sites reading subtitles from confidential videos on a user's intranet.

   When the networking task source has queued the last task as part of fetching the media resource (i.e. once the download has completed), if the fetching process completes without errors, including decoding the media data, and if all of the data is available to the user agent without network access, then, the user agent must move on to the next step. This might never happen, e.g. when streaming an infinite resource such as Web radio, or if the resource is longer than the user agent's ability to cache data.

   While the user agent might still need network access to obtain parts of the media resource, the user agent must remain on this step.

   For example, if the user agent has discarded the first half of a video, the user agent will remain at this step even once the playback has ended, because there is always the chance the user will seek back to the start. In fact, in this situation, once playback has ended, the user agent will end up firing a suspend event, as described earlier.

5. If the user agent ever reaches this step (which can only happen if the entire resource gets loaded and kept available): abort the overall resource selection algorithm.

When a media element is to forget the media element's media-resource-specific tracks, the user agent must remove from the media element's list of text tracks all the media-resource-specific text tracks, then empty the media element's audioTracks attribute's AudioTrackList object, then empty the media element's videoTracks attribute's VideoTrackList object. No events (in particular, no removetrack events) are fired as part of this; the error and emptied events, fired by the algorithms that invoke this one, can be used instead.

The preload attribute is intended to provide a hint to the user agent about what the author thinks will lead to the best user experience. The attribute may be ignored altogether, for example based on explicit user preferences or based on the available connectivity.

The preload IDL attribute must reflect the content attribute of the same name, limited to only known values.

The buffered attribute must return a new static normalized TimeRanges object that represents the ranges of the media resource, if any, that the user agent has buffered, at the time the attribute is evaluated. Users agents must accurately determine the ranges available, even for media streams where this can only be determined by tedious inspection.

Typically this will be a single range anchored at the zero point, but if, e.g. the user agent uses HTTP range requests in response to seeking, then there could be multiple ranges.

User agents may discard previously buffered data.

Thus, a time position included within a range of the objects return by the buffered attribute at one time can end up being not included in the range(s) of objects returned by the same attribute at later times.

A media resource has a media timeline that maps times (in seconds) to positions in the media resource. The origin of a timeline is its earliest defined position. The duration of a timeline is its last defined position.

Establishing the media timeline: If the media resource somehow specifies an explicit timeline whose origin is not negative (i.e. gives each frame a specific time offset and gives the first frame a zero or positive offset), then the media timeline should be that timeline. (Whether the media resource can specify a timeline or not depends on the media resource's format.) If the media resource specifies an explicit start time and date, then that time and date should be considered the zero point in the media timeline; the timeline offset will be the time and date, exposed using the getStartDate() method.

If the media resource has a discontinuous timeline, the user agent must extend the timeline used at the start of the resource across the entire resource, so that the media timeline of the media resource increases linearly starting from the earliest possible position (as defined below), even if the underlying media data has out-of-order or even overlapping time codes.

For example, if two clips have been concatenated into one video file, but the video format exposes the original times for the two clips, the video data might expose a timeline that goes, say, 00:15..00:29 and then 00:05..00:38. However, the user agent would not expose those times; it would instead expose the times as 00:15..00:29 and 00:29..01:02, as a single video.

In the rare case of a media resource that does not have an explicit timeline, the zero time on the media timeline should correspond to the first frame of the media resource. In the even rarer case of a media resource with no explicit timings of any kind, not even frame durations, the user agent must itself determine the time for each frame in a user-agent-defined manner.

An example of a file format with no explicit timeline but with explicit frame durations is the Animated GIF format. An example of a file format with no explicit timings at all is the JPEG-push format (multipart/x-mixed-replace with JPEG frames, often used as the format for MJPEG streams).

If, in the case of a resource with no timing information, the user agent will nonetheless be able to seek to an earlier point than the first frame originally provided by the server, then the zero time should correspond to the earliest seekable time of the media resource; otherwise, it should correspond to the first frame received from the server (the point in the media resource at which the user agent began receiving the stream).

At the time of writing, there is no known format that lacks explicit frame time offsets yet still supports seeking to a frame before the first frame sent by the server.

In any case, the user agent must ensure that the earliest possible position (as defined below) using the established media timeline, is greater than or equal to zero.

The media timeline also has an associated clock. Which clock is used is user-agent defined, and may be media resource-dependent, but it should approximate the user's wall clock.

All the media elements that share current media controller use the same clock for their media timeline.

Media elements have a current playback position, which must initially (i.e. in the absence of media data) be zero seconds. The current playback position is a time on the media timeline.

Media elements also have an official playback position, which must initially be set to zero seconds. The official playback position is an approximation of the current playback position that is kept stable while scripts are running.

Media elements also have a default playback start position, which must initially be set to zero seconds. This time is used to allow the element to be seeked even before the media is loaded.

Each media element has a show poster flag. When a media element is created, this flag must be set to true. This flag is used to control when the user agent is to show a poster frame for a video element instead of showing the video contents.

The currentTime attribute must, on getting, return the media element's default playback start position, unless that is zero, in which case it must return the element's official playback position. The returned value must be expressed in seconds. On setting, if the media element has a current media controller, then the user agent must throw an InvalidStateError exception; otherwise, if the media element's readyState is HAVE_NOTHING, then it must set the media element's default playback start position to the new value; otherwise, it must set the official playback position to the new value and then seek to the new value. The new value must be interpreted as being in seconds.

Media elements have an initial playback position, which must initially (i.e. in the absence of media data) be zero seconds. The initial playback position is updated when a media resource is loaded. The initial playback position is a time on the media timeline.

If the media resource is a streaming resource, then the user agent might be unable to obtain certain parts of the resource after it has expired from its buffer. Similarly, some media resources might have a media timeline that doesn't start at zero. The earliest possible position is the earliest position in the stream or resource that the user agent can ever obtain again. It is also a time on the media timeline.

The earliest possible position is not explicitly exposed in the API; it corresponds to the start time of the first range in the seekable attribute's TimeRanges object, if any, or the current playback position otherwise.

When the earliest possible position changes, then: if the current playback position is before the earliest possible position, the user agent must seek to the earliest possible position; otherwise, if the user agent has not fired a timeupdate event at the element in the past 15 to 250ms and is not still running event handlers for such an event, then the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element.

Because of the above requirement and the requirement in the resource fetch algorithm that kicks in when the metadata of the clip becomes known, the current playback position can never be less than the earliest possible position.

If at any time the user agent learns that an audio or video track has ended and all media data relating to that track corresponds to parts of the media timeline that are before the earliest possible position, the user agent may queue a task to first remove the track from the audioTracks attribute's AudioTrackList object or the videoTracks attribute's VideoTrackList object as appropriate and then fire a trusted event with the name removetrack, that does not bubble and is not cancelable, and that uses the TrackEvent interface, with the track attribute initialized to the AudioTrack or VideoTrack object representing the track, at the media element's aforementioned AudioTrackList or VideoTrackList object.

The duration attribute must return the time of the end of the media resource, in seconds, on the media timeline. If no media data is available, then the attributes must return the Not-a-Number (NaN) value. If the media resource is not known to be bounded (e.g. streaming radio, or a live event with no announced end time), then the attribute must return the positive Infinity value.

The user agent must determine the duration of the media resource before playing any part of the media data and before setting readyState to a value equal to or greater than HAVE_METADATA, even if doing so requires fetching multiple parts of the resource.

When the length of the media resource changes to a known value (e.g. from being unknown to known, or from a previously established length to a new length) the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named durationchange at the media element. (The event is not fired when the duration is reset as part of loading a new media resource.) If the duration is changed such that the current playback position ends up being greater than the time of the end of the media resource, then the user agent must also seek to the time of the end of the media resource.

If an "infinite" stream ends for some reason, then the duration would change from positive Infinity to the time of the last frame or sample in the stream, and the durationchange event would be fired. Similarly, if the user agent initially estimated the media resource's duration instead of determining it precisely, and later revises the estimate based on new information, then the duration would change and the durationchange event would be fired.

Some video files also have an explicit date and time corresponding to the zero time in the media timeline, known as the timeline offset. Initially, the timeline offset must be set to Not-a-Number (NaN).

The getStartDate() method must return a new Date object representing the current timeline offset.

The loop IDL attribute must reflect the content attribute of the same name.

Media elements have a ready state, which describes to what degree they are ready to be rendered at the current playback position. The possible values are as follows; the ready state of a media element at any particular time is the greatest value describing the state of the element:

When the ready state of a media element whose networkState is not NETWORK_EMPTY changes, the user agent must follow the steps given below:

1. Apply the first applicable set of substeps from the following list:

   If the previous ready state was HAVE_NOTHING, and the new ready state is HAVE_METADATA

   Queue a task to fire a simple event named loadedmetadata at the element.

   Before this task is run, as part of the event loop mechanism, the rendering will have been updated to resize the video element if appropriate.

   If the previous ready state was HAVE_METADATA and the new ready state is HAVE_CURRENT_DATA or greater

   If this is the first time this occurs for this media element since the load() algorithm was last invoked, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named loadeddata at the element.

   If the new ready state is HAVE_FUTURE_DATA or HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA, then the relevant steps below must then be run also.

   If the previous ready state was HAVE_FUTURE_DATA or more, and the new ready state is HAVE_CURRENT_DATA or less

   If the media element was potentially playing before its readyState attribute changed to a value lower than HAVE_FUTURE_DATA, and the element has not ended playback, and playback has not stopped due to errors, paused for user interaction, or paused for in-band content, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element, and queue a task to fire a simple event named waiting at the element.

   If the previous ready state was HAVE_CURRENT_DATA or less, and the new ready state is HAVE_FUTURE_DATA

   The user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named canplay at the element.

   If the element's paused attribute is false, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named playing at the element.

   If the new ready state is HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA

   If the previous ready state was HAVE_CURRENT_DATA or less, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named canplay at the element, and, if the element's paused attribute is false, queue a task to fire a simple event named playing at the element.

   If the autoplaying flag is true, and the paused attribute is true, and the media element has an autoplay attribute specified, and the media element's Document's active sandboxing flag set does not have the sandboxed automatic features browsing context flag set, then the user agent may also run the following substeps:

   1. Set the paused attribute to false.
   2. If the element's show poster flag is true, set it to false and run the time marches on steps.
   3. Queue a task to fire a simple event named play at the element.
   4. Queue a task to fire a simple event named playing at the element.

   User agents do not need to support autoplay, and it is suggested that user agents honor user preferences on the matter. Authors are urged to use the autoplay attribute rather than using script to force the video to play, so as to allow the user to override the behavior if so desired.

   In any case, the user agent must finally queue a task to fire a simple event named canplaythrough at the element.

2. If the media element has a current media controller, then report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

The readyState IDL attribute must, on getting, return the value described above that describes the current ready state of the media element.

The autoplay IDL attribute must reflect the content attribute of the same name.

The paused attribute represents whether the media element is paused or not. The attribute must initially be true.

A media element is a blocked media element if its readyState attribute is in the HAVE_NOTHING state, the HAVE_METADATA state, or the HAVE_CURRENT_DATA state, or if the element has paused for user interaction or paused for in-band content.

A media element is said to be potentially playing when its paused attribute is false, the element has not ended playback, playback has not stopped due to errors, the element either has no current media controller or has a current media controller but is not blocked on its media controller, and the element is not a blocked media element.

A waiting DOM event can be fired as a result of an element that is potentially playing stopping playback due to its readyState attribute changing to a value lower than HAVE_FUTURE_DATA.

A media element is said to have ended playback when:

• The element's readyState attribute is HAVE_METADATA or greater, and

• Either:

  • The current playback position is the end of the media resource, and
  • The direction of playback is forwards, and
  • Either the media element does not have a loop attribute specified, or the media element has a current media controller.

  または：

  • The current playback position is the earliest possible position, and
  • The direction of playback is backwards.

The ended attribute must return true if, the last time the event loop reached step 1, the media element had ended playback and the direction of playback was forwards, and false otherwise.

A media element is said to have stopped due to errors when the element's readyState attribute is HAVE_METADATA or greater, and the user agent encounters a non-fatal error during the processing of the media data, and due to that error, is not able to play the content at the current playback position.

A media element is said to have paused for user interaction when its paused attribute is false, the readyState attribute is either HAVE_FUTURE_DATA or HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA and the user agent has reached a point in the media resource where the user has to make a selection for the resource to continue. If the media element has a current media controller when this happens, then the user agent must report the controller state for the media element's current media controller. If the media element has a current media controller when the user makes a selection, allowing playback to resume, the user agent must similarly report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

It is possible for a media element to have both ended playback and paused for user interaction at the same time.

When a media element that is potentially playing stops playing because it has paused for user interaction, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element.

A media element is said to have paused for in-band content when its paused attribute is false, the readyState attribute is either HAVE_FUTURE_DATA or HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA and the user agent has suspended playback of the media resource in order to play content that is temporally anchored to the media resource and has a non-zero length, or to play content that is temporally anchored to a segment of the media resource but has a length longer than that segment. If the media element has a current media controller when this happens, then the user agent must report the controller state for the media element's current media controller. If the media element has a current media controller when the user agent unsuspends playback, the user agent must similarly report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

One example of when a media element would be paused for in-band content is when the user agent is playing audio descriptions from an external WebVTT file, and the synthesized speech generated for a cue is longer than the time between the text track cue start time and the text track cue end time.

---

When the current playback position reaches the end of the media resource when the direction of playback is forwards, then the user agent must follow these steps:

1. If the media element has a loop attribute specified and does not have a current media controller, then seek to the earliest possible position of the media resource and abort these steps.

2. As defined above, the ended IDL attribute starts returning true once the event loop's current task ends.

3. Queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the media element.

4. Queue a task that, if the media element does not have a current media controller, and the media element has still ended playback, and the direction of playback is still forwards, and paused is false, changes paused to true and fires a simple event named pause at the media element.

5. Queue a task to fire a simple event named ended at the media element.

6. If the media element has a current media controller, then report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

When the current playback position reaches the earliest possible position of the media resource when the direction of playback is backwards, then the user agent must only queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element.

---

The defaultPlaybackRate attribute gives the desired speed at which the media resource is to play, as a multiple of its intrinsic speed. The attribute is mutable: on getting it must return the last value it was set to, or 1.0 if it hasn't yet been set; on setting the attribute must be set to the new value.

The defaultPlaybackRate is used by the user agent when it exposes a user interface to the user.

The playbackRate attribute gives the effective playback rate (assuming there is no current media controller overriding it), which is the speed at which the media resource plays, as a multiple of its intrinsic speed. If it is not equal to the defaultPlaybackRate, then the implication is that the user is using a feature such as fast forward or slow motion playback. The attribute is mutable: on getting it must return the last value it was set to, or 1.0 if it hasn't yet been set; on setting the attribute must be set to the new value, and the playback will change speed (if the element is potentially playing and there is no current media controller).

When the defaultPlaybackRate or playbackRate attributes change value (either by being set by script or by being changed directly by the user agent, e.g. in response to user control) the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named ratechange at the media element.

The defaultPlaybackRate and playbackRate attributes have no effect when the media element has a current media controller; the namesake attributes on the MediaController object are used instead in that situation.

---

The played attribute must return a new static normalized TimeRanges object that represents the ranges of points on the media timeline of the media resource reached through the usual monotonic increase of the current playback position during normal playback, if any, at the time the attribute is evaluated.

---

When the play() method on a media element is invoked, the user agent must run the following steps.

1. If the media element's networkState attribute has the value NETWORK_EMPTY, invoke the media element's resource selection algorithm.

2. If the playback has ended and the direction of playback is forwards, and the media element does not have a current media controller, seek to the earliest possible position of the media resource.

   This will cause the user agent to queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the media element.

3. If the media element has a current media controller, then bring the media element up to speed with its new media controller.

4. If the media element's paused attribute is true, run the following substeps:

   1. Change the value of paused to false.

   2. If the show poster flag is true, set the element's show poster flag to false and run the time marches on steps.

   3. Queue a task to fire a simple event named play at the element.

   4. If the media element's readyState attribute has the value HAVE_NOTHING, HAVE_METADATA, or HAVE_CURRENT_DATA, queue a task to fire a simple event named waiting at the element.

      Otherwise, the media element's readyState attribute has the value HAVE_FUTURE_DATA or HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA: queue a task to fire a simple event named playing at the element.

5. Set the media element's autoplaying flag to false.

6. If the media element has a current media controller, then report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

---

When the pause() method is invoked, and when the user agent is required to pause the media element, the user agent must run the following steps:

1. If the media element's networkState attribute has the value NETWORK_EMPTY, invoke the media element's resource selection algorithm.

2. Set the media element's autoplaying flag to false.

3. If the media element's paused attribute is false, run the following steps:

   1. Change the value of paused to true.

   2. Queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element.

   3. Queue a task to fire a simple event named pause at the element.

   4. Set the official playback position to the current playback position.

4. If the media element has a current media controller, then report the controller state for the media element's current media controller.

---

The effective playback rate is not necessarily the element's playbackRate. When a media element has a current media controller, its effective playback rate is the MediaController's media controller playback rate. Otherwise, the effective playback rate is just the element's playbackRate. Thus, the current media controller overrides the media element.

If the effective playback rate is positive or zero, then the direction of playback is forwards. Otherwise, it is backwards.

When a media element is potentially playing and its Document is a fully active Document, its current playback position must increase monotonically at effective playback rate units of media time per unit time of the media timeline's clock. (This specification always refers to this as an increase, but that increase could actually be a decrease if the effective playback rate is negative.)

The effective playback rate can be 0.0, in which case the current playback position doesn't move, despite playback not being paused (paused doesn't become true, and the pause event doesn't fire).

This specification doesn't define how the user agent achieves the appropriate playback rate — depending on the protocol and media available, it is plausible that the user agent could negotiate with the server to have the server provide the media data at the appropriate rate, so that (except for the period between when the rate is changed and when the server updates the stream's playback rate) the client doesn't actually have to drop or interpolate any frames.

Any time the user agent provides a stable state, the official playback position must be set to the current playback position.

When the direction of playback is backwards, any corresponding audio must be muted. When the effective playback rate is so low or so high that the user agent cannot play audio usefully, the corresponding audio must also be muted. If the effective playback rate is not 1.0, the user agent may apply pitch adjustments to the audio as necessary to render it faithfully.

Media elements that are potentially playing while not in a Document must not play any video, but should play any audio component. Media elements must not stop playing just because all references to them have been removed; only once a media element is in a state where no further audio could ever be played by that element may the element be garbage collected.

It is possible for an element to which no explicit references exist to play audio, even if such an element is not still actively playing: for instance, it could have a current media controller that still has references and can still be unpaused, or it could be unpaused but stalled waiting for content to buffer.

---

Each media element has a list of newly introduced cues, which must be initially empty. Whenever a text track cue is added to the list of cues of a text track that is in the list of text tracks for a media element, that cue must be added to the media element's list of newly introduced cues. Whenever a text track is added to the list of text tracks for a media element, all of the cues in that text track's list of cues must be added to the media element's list of newly introduced cues. When a media element's list of newly introduced cues has new cues added while the media element's show poster flag is not set, then the user agent must run the time marches on steps.

When a text track cue is removed from the list of cues of a text track that is in the list of text tracks for a media element, and whenever a text track is removed from the list of text tracks of a media element, if the media element's show poster flag is not set, then the user agent must run the time marches on steps.

When the current playback position of a media element changes (e.g. due to playback or seeking), the user agent must run the time marches on steps. If the current playback position changes while the steps are running, then the user agent must wait for the steps to complete, and then must immediately rerun the steps. (These steps are thus run as often as possible or needed — if one iteration takes a long time, this can cause certain cues to be skipped over as the user agent rushes ahead to "catch up".)

The time marches on steps are as follows:

1. Let current cues be a list of cues, initialized to contain all the cues of all the hidden or showing text tracks of the media element (not the disabled ones) whose start times are less than or equal to the current playback position and whose end times are greater than the current playback position.

2. Let other cues be a list of cues, initialized to contain all the cues of hidden and showing text tracks of the media element that are not present in current cues.

3. Let last time be the current playback position at the time this algorithm was last run for this media element, if this is not the first time it has run.

4. If the current playback position has, since the last time this algorithm was run, only changed through its usual monotonic increase during normal playback, then let missed cues be the list of cues in other cues whose start times are greater than or equal to last time and whose end times are less than or equal to the current playback position. Otherwise, let missed cues be an empty list.

5. Remove all the cues in missed cues that are also in the media element's list of newly introduced cues, and then empty the element's list of newly introduced cues.

6. If the time was reached through the usual monotonic increase of the current playback position during normal playback, and if the user agent has not fired a timeupdate event at the element in the past 15 to 250ms and is not still running event handlers for such an event, then the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element. (In the other cases, such as explicit seeks, relevant events get fired as part of the overall process of changing the current playback position.)

   The event thus is not to be fired faster than about 66Hz or slower than 4Hz (assuming the event handlers don't take longer than 250ms to run). User agents are encouraged to vary the frequency of the event based on the system load and the average cost of processing the event each time, so that the UI updates are not any more frequent than the user agent can comfortably handle while decoding the video.

7. If all of the cues in current cues have their text track cue active flag set, none of the cues in other cues have their text track cue active flag set, and missed cues is empty, then abort these steps.

8. If the time was reached through the usual monotonic increase of the current playback position during normal playback, and there are cues in other cues that have their text track cue pause-on-exit flag set and that either have their text track cue active flag set or are also in missed cues, then immediately pause the media element.

   In the other cases, such as explicit seeks, playback is not paused by going past the end time of a cue, even if that cue has its text track cue pause-on-exit flag set.

9. Let events be a list of tasks, initially empty. Each task in this list will be associated with a text track, a text track cue, and a time, which are used to sort the list before the tasks are queued.

   Let affected tracks be a list of text tracks, initially empty.

   When the steps below say to prepare an event named event for a text track cue target with a time time, the user agent must run these substeps:

   1. Let track be the text track with which the text track cue target is associated.

   2. Create a task to fire a simple event named event at target.

   3. Add the newly created task to events, associated with the time time, the text track track, and the text track cue target.

   4. Add track to affected tracks.

10. For each text track cue in missed cues, prepare an event named enter for the TextTrackCue object with the text track cue start time.

11. For each text track cue in other cues that either has its text track cue active flag set or is in missed cues, prepare an event named exit for the TextTrackCue object with the later of the text track cue end time and the text track cue start time.

12. For each text track cue in current cues that does not have its text track cue active flag set, prepare an event named enter for the TextTrackCue object with the text track cue start time.

13. Sort the tasks in events in ascending time order (tasks with earlier times first).

    Further sort tasks in events that have the same time by the relative text track cue order of the text track cues associated with these tasks.

    Finally, sort tasks in events that have the same time and same text track cue order by placing tasks that fire enter events before those that fire exit events.

14. Queue each task in events, in list order.

15. Sort affected tracks in the same order as the text tracks appear in the media element's list of text tracks, and remove duplicates.

16. For each text track in affected tracks, in the list order, queue a task to fire a simple event named cuechange at the TextTrack object, and, if the text track has a corresponding track element, to then fire a simple event named cuechange at the track element as well.

17. Set the text track cue active flag of all the cues in the current cues, and unset the text track cue active flag of all the cues in the other cues.

18. Run the rules for updating the text track rendering of each of the text tracks in affected tracks that are showing. For example, for text tracks based on WebVTT, the rules for updating the display of WebVTT text tracks. [WEBVTT]

For the purposes of the algorithm above, a text track cue is considered to be part of a text track only if it is listed in the text track list of cues, not merely if it is associated with the text track.

If the media element's Document stops being a fully active document, then the playback will stop until the document is active again.

When a media element is removed from a Document, the user agent must run the following steps:

1. Asynchronously await a stable state, allowing the task that removed the media element from the Document to continue. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm. (Steps in the synchronous section are marked with ⌛.)

2. ⌛ If the media element is in a Document, abort these steps.

3. ⌛ If the media element's networkState attribute has the value NETWORK_EMPTY, abort these steps.

4. ⌛ Pause the media element.

The seeking attribute must initially have the value false.

When the user agent is required to seek to a particular new playback position in the media resource, optionally with the approximate-for-speed flag set, it means that the user agent must run the following steps. This algorithm interacts closely with the event loop mechanism; in particular, it has a synchronous section (which is triggered as part of the event loop algorithm). Steps in that section are marked with ⌛.

1. Set the media element's show poster flag to false.

2. If the media element's readyState is HAVE_NOTHING, abort these steps.

3. If the element's seeking IDL attribute is true, then another instance of this algorithm is already running. Abort that other instance of the algorithm without waiting for the step that it is running to complete.

4. Set the seeking IDL attribute to true.

5. If the seek was in response to a DOM method call or setting of an IDL attribute, then continue the script. The remainder of these steps must be run asynchronously. With the exception of the steps marked with ⌛, they could be aborted at any time by another instance of this algorithm being invoked.

6. If the new playback position is later than the end of the media resource, then let it be the end of the media resource instead.

7. If the new playback position is less than the earliest possible position, let it be that position instead.

8. If the (possibly now changed) new playback position is not in one of the ranges given in the seekable attribute, then let it be the position in one of the ranges given in the seekable attribute that is the nearest to the new playback position. If two positions both satisfy that constraint (i.e. the new playback position is exactly in the middle between two ranges in the seekable attribute) then use the position that is closest to the current playback position. If there are no ranges given in the seekable attribute then set the seeking IDL attribute to false and abort these steps.

9. If the approximate-for-speed flag is set, adjust the new playback position to a value that will allow for playback to resume promptly. If new playback position before this step is before current playback position, then the adjusted new playback position must also be before the current playback position. Similarly, if the new playback position before this step is after current playback position, then the adjusted new playback position must also be after the current playback position.

   For example, the user agent could snap to the nearest key frame, so that it doesn't have to spend time decoding then discarding intermediate frames before resuming playback.

10. Queue a task to fire a simple event named seeking at the element.

11. Set the current playback position to the given new playback position.

    If the media element was potentially playing immediately before it started seeking, but seeking caused its readyState attribute to change to a value lower than HAVE_FUTURE_DATA, then a waiting will be fired at the element.

    The currentTime attribute does not get updated asynchronously, as it returns the official playback position, not the current playback position.

12. Wait until the user agent has established whether or not the media data for the new playback position is available, and, if it is, until it has decoded enough data to play back that position.

13. Await a stable state. The synchronous section consists of all the remaining steps of this algorithm. (Steps in the synchronous section are marked with ⌛.)

14. ⌛ Set the seeking IDL attribute to false.

15. ⌛ Run the time marches on steps.

16. ⌛ Queue a task to fire a simple event named timeupdate at the element.

17. ⌛ Queue a task to fire a simple event named seeked at the element.

The seekable attribute must return a new static normalized TimeRanges object that represents the ranges of the media resource, if any, that the user agent is able to seek to, at the time the attribute is evaluated.

If the user agent can seek to anywhere in the media resource, e.g. because it is a simple movie file and the user agent and the server support HTTP Range requests, then the attribute would return an object with one range, whose start is the time of the first frame (the earliest possible position, typically zero), and whose end is the same as the time of the first frame plus the duration attribute's value (which would equal the time of the last frame, and might be positive Infinity).

The range might be continuously changing, e.g. if the user agent is buffering a sliding window on an infinite stream. This is the behavior seen with DVRs viewing live TV, for instance.

Media resources might be internally scripted or interactive. Thus, a media element could play in a non-linear fashion. If this happens, the user agent must act as if the algorithm for seeking was used whenever the current playback position changes in a discontinuous fashion (so that the relevant events fire). If the media element has a current media controller, then the user agent must seek the media controller appropriately instead.

The audioTracks attribute of a media element must return a live AudioTrackList object representing the audio tracks available in the media element's media resource. The same object must be returned each time.

The videoTracks attribute of a media element must return a live VideoTrackList object representing the video tracks available in the media element's media resource. The same object must be returned each time.

There are only ever one AudioTrackList object and one VideoTrackList object per media element, even if another media resource is loaded into the element: the objects are reused. (The AudioTrack and VideoTrack objects are not, though.)

An AudioTrackList object represents a dynamic list of zero or more audio tracks, of which zero or more can be enabled at a time. Each audio track is represented by an AudioTrack object.

A VideoTrackList object represents a dynamic list of zero or more video tracks, of which zero or one can be selected at a time. Each video track is represented by a VideoTrack object.

Tracks in AudioTrackList and VideoTrackList objects must be consistently ordered. If the media resource is in a format that defines an order, then that order must be used; otherwise, the order must be the relative order in which the tracks are declared in the media resource. The order used is called the natural order of the list.

Each track in a TrackList thus has an index; the first has the index 0, and each subsequent track is numbered one higher than the previous one. If a media resource dynamically adds or removes audio or video tracks, then the indices of the tracks will change dynamically. If the media resource changes entirely, then all the previous tracks will be removed and replaced with new tracks.

The AudioTrackList.length and VideoTrackList.length attributes must return the number of tracks represented by their objects at the time of getting.

The supported property indices of AudioTrackList and VideoTrackList objects at any instant are the numbers from zero to the number of tracks represented by the respective object minus one, if any tracks are represented. If an AudioTrackList or VideoTrackList object represents no tracks, it has no supported property indices.

To determine the value of an indexed property for a given index index in an AudioTrackList or VideoTrackList object list, the user agent must return the AudioTrack or VideoTrack object that represents the indexth track in list.

The AudioTrackList.getTrackById(id) and VideoTrackList.getTrackById(id) methods must return the first AudioTrack or VideoTrack object (respectively) in the AudioTrackList or VideoTrackList object (respectively) whose identifier is equal to the value of the id argument (in the natural order of the list, as defined above). When no tracks match the given argument, the methods must return null.

The AudioTrack and VideoTrack objects represent specific tracks of a media resource. Each track can have an identifier, category, label, and language. These aspects of a track are permanent for the lifetime of the track; even if a track is removed from a media resource's AudioTrackList or VideoTrackList objects, those aspects do not change.

In addition, AudioTrack objects can each be enabled or disabled; this is the audio track's enabled state. When an AudioTrack is created, its enabled state must be set to false (disabled). The resource fetch algorithm can override this.

Similarly, a single VideoTrack object per VideoTrackList object can be selected, this is the video track's selection state. When a VideoTrack is created, its selection state must be set to false (not selected). The resource fetch algorithm can override this.

The AudioTrack.id and VideoTrack.id attributes must return the identifier of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise. If the media resource is in a format that supports the Media Fragments URI fragment identifier syntax, the identifier returned for a particular track must be the same identifier that would enable the track if used as the name of a track in the track dimension of such a fragment identifier. [MEDIAFRAG]

For example, in Ogg files, this would be the Name header field of the track. [OGGSKELETONHEADERS]

The AudioTrack.kind and VideoTrack.kind attributes must return the category of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise.

The category of a track is the string given in the first column of the table below that is the most appropriate for the track based on the definitions in the table's second and third columns, as determined by the metadata included in the track in the media resource. The cell in the third column of a row says what the category given in the cell in the first column of that row applies to; a category is only appropriate for an audio track if it applies to audio tracks, and a category is only appropriate for video tracks if it applies to video tracks. Categories must only be returned for AudioTrack objects if they are appropriate for audio, and must only be returned for VideoTrack objects if they are appropriate for video.

The AudioTrack.label and VideoTrack.label attributes must return the label of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise.

The AudioTrack.language and VideoTrack.language attributes must return the BCP 47 language tag of the language of the track, if it has one, or the empty string otherwise. If the user agent is not able to express that language as a BCP 47 language tag (for example because the language information in the media resource's format is a free-form string without a defined interpretation), then the method must return the empty string, as if the track had no language.

Source attribute values for id, kind, label and language of multitrack audio and video tracks as described for the relevant media resource format. [INBANDTRACKS]

The AudioTrack.enabled attribute, on getting, must return true if the track is currently enabled, and false otherwise. On setting, it must enable the track if the new value is true, and disable it otherwise. (If the track is no longer in an AudioTrackList object, then the track being enabled or disabled has no effect beyond changing the value of the attribute on the AudioTrack object.)

Whenever an audio track in an AudioTrackList is enabled or disabled, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named change at the AudioTrackList object.

The VideoTrackList.selectedIndex attribute must return the index of the currently selected track, if any. If the VideoTrackList object does not currently represent any tracks, or if none of the tracks are selected, it must instead return −1.

The VideoTrack.selected attribute, on getting, must return true if the track is currently selected, and false otherwise. On setting, it must select the track if the new value is true, and unselect it otherwise. If the track is in a VideoTrackList, then all the other VideoTrack objects in that list must be unselected. (If the track is no longer in a VideoTrackList object, then the track being selected or unselected has no effect beyond changing the value of the attribute on the VideoTrack object.)

Whenever a track in a VideoTrackList that was previously not selected is selected, the user agent must queue a task to fire a simple event named change at the VideoTrackList object. This task must be queued before the task that fires the resize event, if any.

The following are the event handlers (and their corresponding event handler event types) that must be supported, as event handler IDL attributes, by all objects implementing the AudioTrackList and VideoTrackList interfaces:

イベントハンドラ	イベントハンドライベント型
onchange	change
onaddtrack	addtrack
onremovetrack	removetrack
