WoodyGenerator and 'attribute-name' parameter

[Mark Lundquist <ml...@wrinkledog.com>]

I've got my first Woody form displaying now.  I'm handling the form 
request with flow that calls a display pipeline, which generates from a 
Woody template and transforms with the WoodyTemplateTransformer, and 
then again with woody-field-styling.xsl from the samples directory.

It works.  But I'm pretty well convinced that what I really want is the 
WoodyGenerator, and not to use the "pull-model" template approach.  But 
I'm stuck on the "attribute-name" sitemap parameter required by the 
generator.  Presumably this has to match up with something that my flow 
is supposed to have taken care of, but I can't find any docs or 
examples that explain this.  Can anybody help shed some light on this 
for me?

Thanks in advance for answering noob questions :-)

Best Regards,
~ml

With some sleuthing, I was able to figure out that I needed to call

	cocoon.request.setAttribute ('foo-form', form.form);

before calling form.showForm().  Bingo, that was the ticket.

Is there anything else I should know?
