Query regarding Forms

[an...@wipro.com]

Hi,



I have some checkboxes in a page for various colors like blue, green etc
(generated using xml/xsl).The user would select some of the
checkboxes...say 2 checkboxes.



I have to display the choices ie the colors in a cocoon form in a
tabular form. So if 2 colors are checked then a table with 2 rows...if 5
colors then 5 rows.



A repeater widget could be used for this, but the size of the repeater
is required. We could say cocoon.request.getParameterValues("Color") in
the flowscript, to get a list of checkboxes selected. But how to pass
this data to the form definition file.



Is there any other method to achieve the above functionality?



Thanks in advance.



Regards,

Anand.

Don't access the request params!!! You have a form model to get all the 
values selected. You can pass these object (don't know exactly but it 
should be a string array) to a jxtemplate to show the colors in a table.
