Re: Multipage CForm using Ajax - Non ascii Characters

[Peter Sparkes]

Thanks Greg and Robby for your replies.

Unfortunately I can't get it to work. I assume encodeURIComponent goes into the 
flowscript:

   function multipage() {
       var lodgeId = cocoon.parameters.lodgeId;
   cocoon.request.setAttribute("lodgeId", lodgeId);

       var documentURI = cocoon.parameters["documentURI"];
       // parse the document to a DOM-tree
       var document = loadDocument(documentURI);

       //document = decodeURIComponent (document);

       // get the documentURI parameter from the sitemap which contains the 
location of the form
   definition (model)
       var definitionURI = cocoon.parameters["definitionURI"];

       //create new form
       var form = new Form(definitionURI);

       // get the documentURI parameter from the sitemap which contains the 
location of the binding
   file
        var bindingURI = cocoon.parameters["bindingURI"];
   form.createBinding(bindingURI);

        // bind the document data to the form
        form.load(document);

        // show the form to the user until it is validated successfully
   form.showForm("lodgemul-display-pipeline.jx");

        // bind the form's data back to the document

        form.save(document);

        // save the DOM-tree back to an XML file,
   document = encodeURIComponent(document);
        saveDocument(document, documentURI);

        // show the xml generated from the form
        var success ='/B&B/England/Devon/Bideford/'+ lodgeId+'.html';
   //cocoon.redirectTo('/office/' + lodgeno+'.htm');
        cocoon.sendPage(success);
   }

document = encodeURIComponent(document); produces the following error when I 
submit the completed form

    Can't find method org.apache.cocoon.xml.dom.DOMStreamer.stream(string).

What am I doing wrong

Ajax calls use default character encoding defined by HTTP 1.1 spec (which iso-8859-1, not UTF-8). You have to encode BEFORE sending and decode AFTER retrieving those strings.

Encode with encodeURIComponent, decode with decodeURIComponent (if Javascript).

Greetings,

You will probably need to encode the characters if you make an ajax call…

        var  somevalue = encodeURIComponent(“this is a value to be encoded”);

Hi

Cocoon 2.11

I have implemented a multipage CForm which uses Ajax. The form is based on the 
example at

http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/cocoon21/samples/blocks/forms/do-multipage.flow

The  form works fine except that it does not save non ascii characters 
correctly eg.

É €  ç  £



If I use one very long form without Ajax the above characters are correctly 
saved

Help please, How can I fix this problem
