Hi,
Thanks for your reply. This is very close to what I want.
So I'm almost there, but I have to have a root element on the
categories_combo.xml "page". Its <xmlformcategories>. I only
want whats in between the root element. CInclude appears to not
support the xpointer as it was trying to treat it as part of the URL.
I'd hoped that the "element" attribute of the <cinclude:include> tag
would allow this, but it actually seems to be for doing the opposite.
I suppose I can apply an additional layer of transformation that takes
the output, includes everything but the <xformcategories> and then
includes its children, but that is very inefficient and kinda of a pain,
etc.
Is there a more straightforward way to take only the children of the
xmformcategories, include them without including the xmlformcategories
tag?
basically
<cinclude:include src="cocoon:/categories_combo.xml"
select="xformcategories/*"/>
or something to that effect
source of requestform.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<document xmlns:xf="http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/xmlform/2002";
xmlns:cinclude="http://apache.org/cocoon/include/1.0";>
<xf:form id="request-form" view="requestform"
action="postrequest.html">
<error>
<xf:violations class="error"/>
</error>
<xf:selectMany ref="/category" selectUIType="listbox">
<xf:caption>Category</xf:caption>
<cinclude:include src="cocoon:/categories_combo.xml" />
<xf:violations class="error"/>
</xf:selectMany>
<xf:textbox ref="/title">
<xf:caption>Title/Item Name (no HTML)</xf:caption>
<xf:violations class="error"/>
</xf:textbox>
.... snip ....
<xf:textbox ref="/password">
<xf:caption>Password</xf:caption>
<xf:violations class="error"/>
</xf:textbox>
<xf:submit id="next" class="button">
<xf:caption>Next</xf:caption>
</xf:submit>
</xf:form>
</document>
output from categories_combo.xml:
