Editing XForms With Eclipse

Hi everybody,

this probably is some kind of beginners questions...

I'm using Eclipse's XML/JSP editor from the WTP project to edit my JSP files
that contain XForms elements. Unfortunately the JSP/XML editor always
complains "taglib directive for 'xforms' does not exist or TLD is not
found."

The used namespaces look liks this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:xforms="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events"
xmlns:xxforms="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xforms">

I've tried to download the XForms schema from
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/2002/XForms-Schema.xsd and to add it to
Eclipse's XML Catalog, but without success.

Has anybody got an idea what I'm doing wrong and how to eliminate that
validation error?

BitByter,

Since you are editing a JSP file, it looks like Eclipse thinks those
<xforms:*> are from a taglib, and maybe doesn't even look for the
corresponding schema. Do you know if Eclipse can edit JSP and XML in
the same file? Maybe they have an XML editor and a JSP editor, and
those are two different things. Have you tried to right clic on the
file and and choose open in XML editor, which would open the file in a
pure XML editor?

Of course I've tried that, but with the same result. It's very
strange... :( Maybe I've to give Eclipse 3.3 a chance?!

I don't have much experience with using Eclipse as an XML editor. You
may want to try to ask the question on one of the Eclipse mailing
lists.

Re: Re[2]: Editing XForms With Eclipse

My XForms documents don't contain any JSP, but what I've been doing is
using OxygenXML plugin [1] to edit my XML-based files and then use the
schema files from the xH set. [2]

I've had to modify the files a little bit to get them working the way
I wanted. It seems like Mark Birbeck hasn't really been updating them
too frequently. Using these files, I've been able to both validate my
XForms and have tag completion.
