As Stored <mv-as-stored>
Montre, avant l’enregistrement, exactement comment chaque valeur sera stockée quand le système derrière le formulaire la remodèle, au lieu de la laisser être étirée ou coupée en silence. Enveloppez un formulaire et donnez à ses champs leurs règles de stockage (data-as-stored="trim nfc max-bytes:20") : limites de longueur en caractères, en octets UTF-8 ou en unités UTF-16, jeux de caractères (ASCII, Latin-1, BMP, sans emoji) qui remplacent, suppriment ou translittèrent, normalisation trim / collapse / casse / NFC/NFKC, suppression des diacritiques (simple ou selon l’orthographe des passeports OACI : ü → UE), suppression des apostrophes et des traits d’union, arrondi des nombres et des montants (décimal exact, half-up, half-even ou vers le bas), numéros de téléphone au format E.164 (extensions supprimées, 35 pays), conversion de fuseau horaire et troncature au jour, plus des règles personnalisées. Quand la valeur stockée différerait, un aperçu discret « Sera enregistré comme » apparaît sous le champ avec la valeur stockée et chaque modification marquée sur place (remplacé, supprimé, la fin coupée après une ligne pointillée), chaque changement étant énoncé en toutes lettres (« “é” deviendra “e” », « 2 emoji supprimés », « Coupé après “Kowalczyk-Brzęczysz” : “czykiewicz” sera perdu. La limite est de 20 octets (UTF-8) et cette valeur en fait 30. ę compte pour 2 octets. », « Le jour passe du 15 au 16 octobre, car l’heure est convertie en UTC »), avec un compteur d’octets ou de caractères et trois issues : Je corrige moi-même (place le focus dans le champ et sélectionne la partie exacte), Accepter (prendre acte, ou appliquer la valeur stockée au champ) et les alternatives fournies par l’application. Les changements cosmétiques (espaces, normalisation invisible) restent silencieux, sauf avec show="all". À la soumission, un résumé au niveau du formulaire liste chaque champ qui sera remodelé et bloque l’enregistrement une fois, avec Tout accepter et enregistrer ; submit-stored fait envoyer au formulaire exactement les valeurs affichées. Le moteur est pur et indépendant du DOM (MvAsStored.transform(value, rules)), si bien que les mêmes règles s’exécutent sur le serveur et dans les tests.

When to use
- A form feeds a legacy system or database column that truncates, re-encodes or rounds what people type
- People with international names (accents, apostrophes, CJK, long hyphenated names) must see how a system will spell them
- A value is converted before storage (UTC day, E.164 phone, cents) and a silent shift would cause real mistakes
- Client and server must agree on one normalization and the preview has to match what the backend really stores
Avoid when
- The input must be formatted while typing (a card number, a phone mask) rather than previewed as stored → use Input instead
- The value is invalid and must be fixed before anything is sent, not reshaped → use One More Thing instead
- The problem is invisible or look-alike characters pasted into a field, not the storage rules → use Invisibles instead

</div>Référence culturelle
Le mythe de Procuste, mythe grec, rapporté par Plutarque (Vie de Thésée) et Diodore de Sicile (vers le Ier siècle av. J.-C., mythe). Procuste offrait un lit aux voyageurs, puis les y ajustait exactement, étirant les petits et coupant les grands, sans jamais les prévenir. Dans l’interface, la forme figée du système (limites d’octets, jeux de caractères, arrondis, fuseaux horaires) est révélée avant l’enregistrement : la valeur est montrée exactement telle qu’elle sera stockée, chaque coupe et chaque étirement sont nommés, et la personne choisit de corriger, d’accepter ou d’opter pour un autre ajustement.
API
Attributes
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
for | string (form id) | The form to watch when it is not a child of the element. | |
show | change | loss | all | change | Lowest severity that opens a preview: loss (value lost: cut, replaced, removed, rounded, time dropped), change (visible but lossless: case, phone format, time zone), all (also cosmetic: spaces, invisible normalization). Per field: data-as-stored-show. |
summary | hold | live | none | hold | hold: on submit, if any preview was not accepted, the submission is held once and a summary lists every reshaped field with Accept all and save. live: the summary is also shown permanently while anything will be reshaped. none: never hold, never summarize. |
accept | keep | apply | keep | keep: Accept acknowledges the reshape (the field keeps what was typed and the preview folds to one line). apply: Accept writes the stored value into text-like fields (input/change events dispatched). Per field: data-as-stored-accept. |
time-zone | IANA zone | (browser zone) | Zone in which wall-clock values (datetime-local) were typed, for the timezone rule. Per field: data-as-stored-zone. |
country | ISO 3166 alpha-2 | US | Default country for phone numbers typed without an international prefix. Per field: data-as-stored-country, or phone:e164:GB in the rules. |
submit-stored | boolean | On the form’s formdata event, every reshaped field is sent as its stored value, so the server receives exactly what the preview showed. | |
delay | number (ms) | 160 | Debounce between typing and updating the preview. |
data-as-stored (on fields) | rules | Space-separated rules applied in order: trim, collapse, lowercase, uppercase, nfc, nfd, nfkc, nfkd, strip-diacritics[:icao], strip:<chars|punctuation|symbols|spaces|digits>, charset:<ascii|latin1|bmp|no-emoji>[:replace|drop|transliterate[:char]], max:<n> (characters = code points), max-bytes:<n> (UTF-8), max-utf16:<n>, round:<decimals>[:half-up|half-even|down], currency:<ISO code>[:mode], phone[:e164][:<country>], timezone:<target zone, e.g. UTC>, date[:day|month]. Also data-as-stored-label, -show, -accept, -zone, -country and -anchor (selector of the element the preview is appended to). |
Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
rules | Record<fieldName, string | Array<string | { name, apply(value, ctx), message?, severity?, kind? }>> | Rules per field name, appended to data-as-stored. Custom rules return the new value (or { value, message, severity }); severity is cosmetic | change | loss. |
alternatives | (ctx) => Alternative[] | Record<fieldName, (ctx) => Alternative[]> | Extra choices under a preview (max 3). ctx: { field, name, label, input, value, severity, changes, transform(v) }. Alternative: { label, value?, description?, action?(field) }; a value is written into the field, action runs your own code. |
strings | Partial<Record<string, string>> | Overrides for every visible text and announcement (label, savedAs, accepted, fix, accept, apply, review, empty, more, meter, desc, descAccepted, announce, announceMore, announceAccepted, summaryTitle, summaryTitleOne, summaryText, summaryLive, summaryDone, summaryDoneText, acceptAll, saveNow, reviewFirst, summaryAnnounce). English defaults. |
form | HTMLFormElement | null | The watched form (read-only). |
MvAsStored.transform(value, rules, options?) | static | Pure, DOM-free engine (also exported as transform). options: { timeZone, country }. Returns { input, value, changed, severity (none | cosmetic | change | loss), changes: [{ rule, kind, severity, message, detail? }], segments: [{ type: same | replace | add | remove | cut, text, was, start, end }], display (diff | plain), meter: { size, limit, unit } | null }. Also static parseRules, byteLength, measure(value, unit). |
Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
check() | Re-evaluates every field (after setting values from code) and returns reshaped(). |
reshaped() | Fields that will be reshaped: [{ field, name, label, input, value, severity, changes, accepted }]. |
stored() | { name: storedValue } for every tracked field, as the system will store them. |
acceptField(fieldOrName) | Accepts one reshape (emits mv-reshape-accept). Returns false if vetoed. |
acceptAll() | Accepts every pending reshape. Returns how many are still pending (vetoed). |
review(fieldOrName) | Focuses the field and selects the part that will be reshaped (Fix it myself). |
Events
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
mv-reshape | Cancelable. A field’s value will be stored differently (fired when the stored value or its changes differ from last time). detail: { field, name, label, input, value, severity, changes, accepted }. preventDefault() hides this preview so the app can present it its own way. |
mv-reshape-clear | A field that was reshaped will now be stored as typed. detail: { field, name, value }. |
mv-reshape-accept | Cancelable, before a reshape is accepted (button, acceptField, Accept all). detail: same as mv-reshape plus apply (boolean). |
mv-reshape-alternative | Cancelable, before an app-provided alternative is applied. detail: { field, name, alternative }. |
mv-reshape-summary | Cancelable, before a submission is held for the summary. detail: { fields, submitter }. preventDefault() lets the submission through. |
CSS classes
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
mv-as-stored-preview | Preview under a field (appended to its .mv-field, or after it): data-severity (cosmetic | change | loss), data-state (open | accepted). Parts: -head, -icon, -label, -meter (data-over), -value (data-display diff | plain), -changes, -change (data-kind, data-severity), -change-detail, -actions, -fix, -accept, -alt, -compact, -review. |
mv-as-stored-mark / mv-as-stored-cut | Marks inside the stored value: <mark data-kind="replace|add"> (underlined), <del data-kind="remove"> (struck, whitespace shown as ␣), the cut tail after a dashed line. |
mv-as-stored-summary | Form-level summary inserted before the submit row (or inside [data-as-stored-summary]): data-severity (change | loss | done), data-held. Parts: -summary-head, -summary-title, -summary-text, -summary-list, -summary-item (data-accepted), -summary-field, -summary-value, -summary-reason, -summary-go, -summary-actions. |
CSS variables
| Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
--mv-as-stored-loss | var(--mv-warning) | Tone of previews where information is lost (cut, replaced, removed, rounded). |
--mv-as-stored-change | var(--mv-info) | Tone of previews where the value changes without loss (case, phone format, time zone). |
Accessibility
Each preview is linked to its field with aria-describedby (added only while it is visible) through a visually hidden sentence that says everything in words: “Will be saved as “Kowalczyk-Brzęczysz”. Cut after …: “czykiewicz” will be lost.”; the visual stored value with its marks is aria-hidden so it is never read twice, and every change is also listed as real text under it, never conveyed by color alone (marks use underline, strike-through and a dashed cut line, which survive forced colors). While typing, announcements are debounced (1.1 s after the last change, only for the focused field, only when the stored result actually changed) in a polite live region: “Last name will be saved as “…”. Cut after … 1 more change is listed under the field.”. Fix it myself focuses the field and selects the exact characters that will be reshaped (the overflow, the replaced letter); Accept returns focus to the field and announces the result; the accepted line keeps a Review button (labelled with the field name) that reopens the preview. Held submissions move focus to the summary (a labelled region, tabindex -1) and announce it; each summary item has a Review button that goes to its field. All controls are native buttons in document order right after their field, so Tab reaches them naturally. Appear and fold animations are opacity-only and skipped under reduced motion (OS or data-motion="reduce").
