session transformer

[Corinna Gries <co...@asu.edu>]

Hi gurus,

I have been enjoying the session transformer and source writing transformer
a lot lately, very intuitive.

But there is one problem that I don't seem to be able to figure out.
Following the example on forms 'the session framework approach' I don't get
the xml into the session context without another step inbetween. I must be
missing something important:

my form:

<page xmlns:session="http://cocoon.apache.org/session/1.0">
 <session:createcontext name="party"/>
 <session:form name="position">
  <session:action>get-position</session:action>
  <session:content>
   <session:inputxml name="position" type="text" context="party"
path="/position"/>
  </session:content>
 </session:form>
</page>

then a style sheet converts it into a form.
This is my sitemap entry, i call the session action before, so the session
exists:

			<map:match pattern="x/*/form-*">
				<map:generate
src="resource/{1}/form-{2}.xml"/>
				<map:transform type="session"/>
				<map:transform
src="stylesheets/formbuilder.xsl"/>
				<map:serialize type="html"/>
			</map:match>

The form comes up fine and I can access the parameters in the request
context, but nothing seems to be in the 'party' context, at least I don't
get anything with getxml after the form is submitted.

Thanks for any help
Corinna
