DOWNLEVEL_REVEALED_CONDITIONAL_COMMENT

@Deprecated
public static final StartTagType DOWNLEVEL_REVEALED_CONDITIONAL_COMMENT

Deprecated.

Use MicrosoftConditionalCommentTagTypes.DOWNLEVEL_REVEALED_IF and MicrosoftConditionalCommentTagTypes.DOWNLEVEL_REVEALED_ENDIF instead.

The tag type given to a Microsoft® downlevel-revealed conditional comment (<![if ... ]> | <![endif]>).

The only valid names for tags of this type are "![if" and "![endif".

This start tag type is used to represent both the "if" and "endif" tags. Because the "endif" tag can not be represented by an end tag type (it doesn't start with "</"), the parser makes no attempt to match if-endif tag pairs to form elements.

The isConditionalCommentIfTag(Tag) and isConditionalCommentEndifTag(Tag) methods provide an efficient means of determining whether a given tag is of the "if" or "endif" variety.

The expression consituting the condition of an "if" tag can be extracted using the StartTag.getTagContent() method. For example, if the variable conditionalCommentIfTag represents the tag <![if !IE]>, then the expression conditionalCommentIfTag.getTagContent().toString().trim() yields the string "!IE".

Properties:

Property	Value
Description	Microsoft downlevel-revealed conditional comment
StartDelimiter	<![
ClosingDelimiter	]>
IsServerTag	false
NamePrefix	![
CorrespondingEndTagType	null
HasAttributes	false
IsNameAfterPrefixRequired	true

Method Details

isConditionalCommentIfTag

public static boolean isConditionalCommentIfTag(Tag tag)

Deprecated.

Indicates whether the specified tag is a downlevel-revealed conditional comment "if" tag (<![if ... ]>).

Parameters:

tag - the Tag to test.

Deprecated.

Indicates whether the specified tag is a downlevel-revealed conditional comment "endif" tag (<![endif]>).

Parameters:

tag - the Tag to test.

Returns:

true if the specified tag is a conditional comment "endif" tag, otherwise false.

register

public static void register()

Deprecated.

Registers all of the tag types defined in this class at once.

The tag types must be registered before the parser will recognise them.

deregister

public static void deregister()

Deprecated.

Deregisters all of the tag types defined in this class at once.

defines

public static boolean defines(TagType tagType)

Deprecated.

Indicates whether the specified tag type is defined in this class.

Parameters:

tagType - the TagType to test.

Returns:

true if the specified tag type is defined in this class, otherwise false.
