FORMS

Hi All, 

I am very interested in something that would let me fill some forms, and
bind these form data to xml.

I am evaluating products like Altova's Authentic Web Edition (very
expensive, 30k USD per 50 concurrent users), but the functionality, except
the client behavior that allows to edit the whole xml before sending it to
the server, is near from what I'm looking for.

I have seen Cocoon Forms, and it seems that is what I need.

Could you give me some suggestions, hints, ..., whatever.

Also, Cocoon forms page says that Cocoon 2.1 must be downloaded in order to
test the example at url http://localhost:8080/cocoon/samples/xmlform/, but I
am unable to get this version neither in the download page nor in the cvs.

Where could I find this package?. Is it present in other releases, or only
in 2.1?

Thank you very much in advance.

Carlos.

FORMS
XMLForm is not supported in version before 2.1.

You can download 2.1 here:
http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/xml-cocoon2/

Sure. I have tried different ways but using it directly from the Action with
a helper class seems to be the easiest solution by now.

I'm too busy this week, please give me a few days and I'll prepare and send
something to Wiki for example.

Btw, I read your message about loading content into a Node a few days ago.
You recommended using a Container. Since I didn't know about them I'm using
DOM Nodes  directly and it's working just fine. Would it be a better
approach to use the container?

Best.

Josema,

Many people requested an example of XMLForm with Xindice.
Can you submit some source code or even better a HOW-TO doc?

Thank you,

Ivelin

FORMSHello,
Yes, you must download 2.1 from CVS and build it. Information on how to get
it and build it step by step is available at:
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/installing/index.html

Then you could test the XMLForm samples. I've been succesfully using them
for a few months backed by a Xindice respository.

Best.

ps: please, not HTML next time, thanks.
