Hi, 

I am returning to Cocoon development after 3 yrs in Java/Flex world, 
so please bare with me (many of my assumptions might be old and 
wrong). 


What IDEs do people use to develop in Cocoon ? 
Any XML plugins ? 


Need to develop Cocoon Forms based tool 
to allow non-technical users easily build/customize Forms. 
So there is a predefined set of fields [which only admin can edit], 
which correspond to some database tables/columns. 
User should be able (through the GUI) basically draw/customize that 
form including layout and save it in files (XML based) . 
Later on these forms are plugged into some JSP based system 
to create a web application. 


Allow users to define & style fields that will appear on the form. 
Allow users to define validation rules for fields on the form. 
Render user-defined forms 
Capture data from user-defined forms, validate it and post it to the
host. 


Any idea if such tool already exists ? 
We would rather buy it than developing it. 


Currently users are using XMLSpy + Authentic, 
but that is VB solution we are moving to Java. 


Any ideas how to implement it? 

Building blocks ? (prefer not to build it from scratch) 


TIA, 
Oleg.
