hello supportlist, Alain
re: hello-standalone.htm
At the moment, I am not understanding well enough the method(s) and
technology used to save the whole form in the above example form supplied
with 1.6, so please forgive me when I ask the following.
The example standalone form is HTML (html5).
The forms I tend to use are XHTML forms (1.0 strict), using the v1.6
xsltforms.xsl in a processing instruction at the top (client side
transformation) and with the data instance and the styles pulled in from
externally linked files. These forms work well.
1) is it possible to replicate the standalone html form example in an
xhtml based form ie. saving the whole xhtml form ?
2) if the answer to 1) is yes, then is it possible to put the script and
style sections in separate files (rather than in the xhtml form file) and
if someone has a quick and dirty example that would be excellent ?
3) out of interest, is it possible to save just the instance data and not
the whole form in either the standalone example or in the xhtml ?
As a test so far, I pinched the 'submission' from the standalone example
and hooked it up in an existing xhtml form to a submit button. I was
expecting that the necessary functionality used directly coded in the
standalone form header, would be in the xsltforms.js via the xsltforms.xsl
transform and would therefore work without much alteration of the existing
xhtml forms used.
It did not work out, with this error prior to the 'file save' dialogue
being shown, where 'saving' saved nothing:
XSLTForms Exception
--------------------------
Error evaluating the following XPath expression :
form-Source()
TypeError
this.compiled is undefined
In the interim from sending this message, I will create a simplified
bare-bones xhtml and test to see if I can get it to work.
What I do know already is that the style and script content in the
standalone example form, leave the xhtml based form as not well-formed ...
even when enclosed in a CDATA block.
