Interfaces

« AT APIs Support Page

nsIAccessible

Generic interface is implemened by accessibles objects. Provides base functionality to obtain accessible object properties, navigate through accessible tree and perform actions on the accessible object.

nsIAccessibleDocument

The interface is implemented by document accessible objects.

nsIAccessibleEditableText

This interface is typically used in conjunction with the nsIAccessibleText interface and complements that interface with the additional ability to modify text.

This interface represents a hyperlink associated with a single substring of text or single non-text object. Non-text objects can have either a single link or a collection of links such as when the non-text object is an image map.

nsIAccessibleHyperText

The IAccessibleHypertext interface is the main interface to expose hyperlinks in a document, typically a text document, that are used to reference other documents. A typical implementation is to implement this interface the smallest text object such as a paragraph of text.

nsIAccessibleImage

This interface is used for a representation of images like icons on buttons.

nsIAccessibleRelation

This interface gives access to an object's set of relations.

nsIAccessibleSelectable

The interface is implemented by accessibles created for selectable elements like combobox, listbox. Allows to select and unselect child elements.

nsIAccessibleTable

All accessible objects that represent cells or cell-clusters of a table have to be at the same time children of the table. This is necessary to be able to convert row and column indices into child indices and vice versa.

nsIAccessibleText

The nsIAccessibleText interface should be implemented by all components that present textual information on the display like buttons, text entry fields, or text portions of the document window. The interface provides access to the text's content, attributes, and spatial location.

nsIAccessibleValue

The nsIAccessibleValue interface represents a single numerical value and should be implemented by any class that supports numerical value like progress bars and spin boxes. This interface lets you access the value and its upper and lower bounds.

nsIAccessNode

Generic interface is implemented by all accessible object.

Wiki Hints

Use nsIAccessible.finalRole; to create a link on finalRole attribute of nsIAccessible interface (nsIAccessible.finalRole).

Use nsIAccessible.takeFocus() to create a link on takeFocus method of nsIAccessible interface (nsIAccessible.takeFocus()).
