Dynamic data in XMLForm
Hello, i have a little problem to create dynamic xf:selectOne ... with XMLForm. I use a Bean which contains an java.util.Collection attribute myCollection. With the following sample i can show all names of the Objects of myCollection. xf:group ref=/ xf:captionMy Collection COntent/xf:caption xf:repeat nodeset=myCollection xf:output ref=./name/ /xf:repeat /xf:group But I need a Select-Component in my Form shich contains the values of my Collection, so i tried this: xf:selectMany ref=/ selectUIType=checkbox xf:captionMy Collection Content/xf:caption xf:repeat nodeset=myCollection xf:item xf:captionxf:output ref=./name//xf:caption xf:valuexf:output ref=./id//xf:value /xf:item /xf:repeat xf:selectMany ... my Problem is, that this doesnt work.

Re: XInclude/CInclude Issue (Re: including dynamic data with XMLForm)
oh, I am sorry, I made another mistake, you can't use the cocoon protocol (or any) within the href. You have to do it as follows: xi:include href=/action/categories_combo.xml#xpointer(/xformcategories/*) xml:base=cocoon:/ or for instance: xi:include xml:base=http://www.cmswatch.com; href=/RSS/cmswatch.xml/ I mixed that up because I am currently using my own XInclude Processor, where I can use the protocol within the href. In the case of the Cocoon version you have to use xml:base. If you do not use it, then it will always assume that you are looking for a file. I never checked if that is because the W3C recommendation is saying that or for whatever reason. All the best Michael Andrew C.

I don't think you need the parse attribute but rather fix the XInclude call: xi:include href=cocoon:/action/categories_combo.xml#xpointer(/xformcategories/*)/ The other problem I think is why are you serializing categories_combo.xml as HTML instead of XML? good point. changed that.

Re: XInclude/CInclude Issue (Re: including dynamic data with XMLForm)
Humm. I'll try that. I still hope someone will look at my patch to CInclude as: 1. I imagine that its faster 2. I like the syntax better 3. I don't know why it shouldn't support some form of element selection. -Andy Stephan Michels wrote: On 7 Jul 2002, Andrew C.
