-- A program similar to the Echo program, written
-- without monads as the first step to Fudgets adoption.
-- The program also demonstrates use of the DOM Level1 framework
-- also implemented in CPS style.

-- This module contains useful functions to access properties of underlying
-- Javascript objects in the type-agnostic manner: proceed with caution!

-- Line-mode output: create a <div> element, place a text in it,
-- append to the parent element (document body). The mbb argument
-- specifies whether the text will be inserted before a specific
-- element (Just) or just appended to the end of the document (Nothing).
-- The s argument is the string to output, and the c argument is
-- the continuation.

addChild tx dv $ \ch ->
-- Functions whose names start with mk (mkDiv, mkText) are autogenerated

-- HTML tags. Above, a <div> and a #text elements were created, and the #text

-- The <input> element was created and added to the <body> element
set'id "input-echo" inp $ \_ ->
-- The set' family of methods deal with setting nodes' properties.
-- The above expression sets the id attribute of the <input> element
-- to "input-echo", so in plain HTML this would be:
-- <input id="input-echo">
set'on "keypress" (inkey inp) inp $ \_ ->
-- The set'on "keypress" is same as specifying
-- <input id="input-echo" onkeypress="javascript:(inkey inp)">
focus inp $ id
-- The focus is a DOM method setting input focus on the element.
-- The id call at the very end "closes" the CPS chain of function calls.
-- A function to convert between Roman and Decimal presentations.
-- It also features exception handling that prevents the program
-- from crash if something wrong is entered. Input in error will be
-- converted into an empty string. The fromRoman and toRoman functions
-- call error in the situation when input cannot be processed.

-- The "onkeypress" handler: it does all the job. Note the o argument:
-- it holds reference to the element a handler is attached to. This forms
-- a closure (which may not be very much desired for some browsers), but
-- makes it extremely easy to distinguish between elements that cause
-- the handler to fire.
inkey :: THTMLInputElement -> a -> Bool
inkey o e = unsafeGetProperty "keyCode" e $ \kcs ->
unsafeToNum kcs $ \kci ->
-- Since there is no completed framework on event properties, we have
-- to use the unsafe interface. The two lines above extract the "keyCode"
-- property from the event received, and gets the numeric value of it.
-- In Javascript, this is equivalent to
-- new Number (e.keyCode)
if kci == 13
-- We are only interested in the Enter key whose code is 13.
-- Other keys just edit the value in the <input> element, and do not
-- need to be handled.

-- They are basically wrappers over unsafeGetProperty, but IDL definition

-- these functions. But we still need to obtain string value of it.

toCPE (romdec v) $ \(rom, dec) ->

-- the romdec function returns a tuple of two conversion results.
rom `seq` dec `seq` getTimeStamp $ \t2 ->
-- Usage of seq's is necessary because seq on the tuple forced by toCPE
-- does not evaluate deep into the structure: only to WHNF.
-- We want to measure the Roman-Deciman conversion time. So we have to force
-- the members of the tuple to evaluate before we get the next time stamp.

(Just o) $ \_ ->
-- putLine places the formatted output string before the <input> element

-- of the browser window, and the <input> element moves downwards as new
-- output apprears.
set'value "" o $ \_ ->
-- Reset the <input> element, erase what was typed in.
-- The final lambda returns True regardless, which means that
-- the browser should take the default action on the user's input
-- (keys pressed).
