Binding

Hi Javier,

You could try:

<xforms:input ref=”/first-name” />

You could also set up an xforms:bind in the model and use the @bind attribute on your control to reference it (useful if you need to set up any validation constraints in your model):

<xforms:model>

                <xforms:instance>

                                ….

                </xforms:instance>

<xforms:bind id=”bnd_first_name” nodeset=”/first-name” />

</xforms:model>

….

<xforms:input bind=”bnd_first_name” />

If you need to use more than one instance, you can also add an @id attribute to the instance (e.g. id=”inst_person”), and reference it like this:

<xforms:input ref=”instance(‘inst_person’)/../first-name” />

Hello,

I am studing your implementation of xforms, but I want to know how do you do the bind between the model's variable and an input field in the client-side. It is said, if we have the next model:

<xforms:model>
  <xforms:instance>
    <first-name id="id1" xmlns="" />
  </xforms:instance>
</xforms:model>

And we have an <xforms:input id="first" > in the same xform file. How do you do the bind between <first-name /> and the input to add to the model the data introduced into the input field in the client-side?
