I know that there isn't very much documentation for Form Builder yet, but is
there any documentation at all yet for the Services and Actions portion of Form Builder? Most of the dialog is pretty self-explanatory, but I'd like to get a little more detail on the "Set Service Request Values", "Set Database Service Parameters" and "Set Response Control Values" sections. Barring any documentation on Form Builder specifically, can anyone recommend a good XForms book that would cover XForms actions in enough detail that I could piece this together?

I don't think we have doc on this yet, sorry. We are in the process of
writing it though. Note that the services and actions in Form Builder don't have a direct match with XForms actions, although they are implemented with actions/ instances/submissions. The basic idea of Form Builder services is closely related to XForms submissions: you have an XML document in (which is no necessarily serialized as XML), and an XML document out. The idea of the Form Builder action editor is that you can react to UI events, and then call a service. Before the service is called, you can set values into the service's input document, from control values. After the service returns, you can extract values from the service's output document, and set control values as well as itemsets. -Erik On Apr 28, 2009, at 3:55 PM, <[hidden email]> <[hidden email]> wrote: > I know that there isn't very much documentation for Form Builder > yet, but is > there any documentation at all yet for the Services and Actions > portion of Form > Builder?
