Hi Mark,
What you need is a custom event handler.
First In you xf:model, declare an xf:action that handle a custom event (you
assign the name), let's say "next-page", and include on it the actions on the
trigger you want to call:
<xf:action ev:event="next-page">
<!- lots of stuff here ->
</xf:trigger>
Second, call this event with the action xf:dispatch from the original trigger
<xf:trigger id="next_parent">
<xf:label>Next Page</xf:label>
<xf:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
<xf:dispatch name="next-page" id="model1" />
</xf:action>
</xf:trigger>
In this example, next-page is the name of the custom event and model1 is the id
attribute of the xf:model that contains the event handler, if you don't have
one, you must assign an id attribute like this.
<xf:model id="model1" />
Then you can reuse the event handler just calling this code from any trigger or
control on your XForms:
<xf:dispatch name="next-page" id="model1" />
Hope this helps,

Asunto: [Xsltforms-support] Can you use dispatch to invoke a trigger?
Hi all,
Can you 'call' a trigger by using <xf:dispatch/> ? Say I have a <xf:repeat/>
list of items with Next and Prev buttons at the bottom. It's a pretty long list
so I want to duplicate the buttons at the top as well but I don't really want
to duplicate the event code in these, I just want to get them to activate their
respective originals.
I've tried this sort of code below but no luck so far.
<xf:trigger id="next_parent">
<xf:label>Next Page</xf:label>
<xf:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
<!- lots of stuff here ->
</xf:action>
</xf:trigger>
<!- this button just 'calls' it's parent
<xf:trigger id="next_dummy">
<xf:label>Next Page</xf:label>
<xf:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
<xf:dispatch id="next_parent" ev:event="DOMActivate"/>
</xf:action>
</xf:trigger>
Rgds,
Mark Lawson
