continuations: is this valid?
Can i write the following in a sitemap, and will it do what i expect?
<map:match pattern="*/*.cont">
<map:call continuation="{2}">
<map:param name="form" value="{1}"/>
</map:call>
</map:match>
I basically want to stay in the flow whilst using multiple forms which
return to a parent form after they have been submitted.
Regards,
Suzan Foster.

Well, have you tried it? Does it work?

I don't want to use request parameters as i will be using xforms and
posting xml. In the flow i want to do something resembling the following:
function showForm(form)
{
bool active = true;
while (active)
{
...
sendPageAndWait(...);
...
if (cocoon.parameters.form!=thisform}
{
showForm(cocoon.parameters.form);
}
...
}
}

I've never seen a continutation being passed a parameter, so I don't
know where/how you'd get at that form parameter. However, do you really
need it? You really only need one matcher for continuations per sitemap,
regardless of how many forms you have. The continuation ID takes you
back into the relevant flowscript. Anything else I wanted to pass back,
I'd pass in as a request parameter or form field and get at it from
within my flowscript that way.

Hi Suzan,
I have done something similar in the past, and it worked for me. I was
able to access the parameter in the flowscript using:
form = cocoon.parameters["form"];
Cheers,
Mark
