Issue with custom XBL + relevant

<xforms:bind nodeset="instance('instance')">
  <xforms:bind nodeset="./newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem" relevant="instance('instance')/newsBlockOne/type = 'manual' "/>                           
  <xforms:bind nodeset="./newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem/title" />
  <xforms:bind nodeset="./newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem/description" />
  <xforms:bind nodeset="./newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem/items/item" />
</xforms:bind>

## xform
<div class="citrix-xforms-widget-wrapper">
        <fr:dropdown-simple ref="instance('instance')/newsBlockOne/type">
                <xforms:label>News Block One:</xforms:label>
                <xforms:hint>Auto-Fill selects the 3 latest news</xforms:hint>
                                               
                <xforms:itemset nodeset="instance('common-type-instance')/item">
    <xforms:label ref="./@label"/>
    <xforms:value ref="./@value"/>
        </xforms:itemset>
       
        </fr:dropdown-simple>
</div>                                           
<div class="citrix-xforms-widget-wrapper">
        <fr:repeated-group
                groupName="News Block One"
                nodeset="instance('instance')/newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem"
                origin="instance('news-proto-property')"
                context="instance('instance')/newsBlockOne/newsItems"
                min="1" max="4">
               
                <div class="citrix-xforms-widget-wrapper">
                                <fr:input-counted ref="instance('instance')/newsBlockOne/newsItems/newsItem/title" max="50">
                                <xforms:label>Title:</xforms:label>
                                <xforms:alert>Title is a required field</xforms:alert>                                                               
                                </fr:input-counted>

    </div>
        </fr:repeated-group>
</div>

##This is from input-counted.xbl. We are using this variable in js to limit the input.
<xsl:copy-of select="xxbl:parameter(., 'max')" />

##This is from input-counted.js
var maxCount = YDOM.getElementsByClassName("xbl-fr-input-counted-max", null, this.container)[0].innerHTML;

This variable is initialized and works if I do not have relevant attribute in binding. But due to the relevancy, input-counted control is not displayed initially and I am confused as why repeated-group control is processed when it is not relevant. By processed I mean init() javascript function is called and I see the right DOM elements of course without values.

When I use drop down to change the relevancy I see the input-counted control as expected but control is missing the "max" value.

What am I missing?

I do see the max value rendered(as a hidden span) when I change the drop down and select the right value to make the repeated-group control relevant. Problem is repeated-group component is already initialized and during initialization it couldn't find the max value.

Binesh,

How are you calling your JavaScript init()? In general, you would do this with:

<xforms:action id="xf-en" ev:event="xforms-enabled">
    <xxforms:script>YAHOO.xbl.fr.Recaptcha.instance(this).init();</xxforms:script>
</xforms:action>

I double checked, and in the case I was looking at, this wasn't called
if the component is not relevant when the page loads. If
xforms-enabled is dispatched in your case, and you feel you are doing
the right thing, could you create a minimal reproducible example that
shows this? (You can have the XBL definition and usage in the same
file, as in the one attached.)

Here you go Alex. Finally I was able to strip out LOT of details and attached a simple xhtml and a js file. You might have to modify the js file location.

I used firebug and added a break point in line 23 and even though repeated-group is not relevant I see that being initialized.

Thank You

repeated-group.js
repeated-group.xhtml

Binesh,

I am running the your example and see that init() is indeed called.
But you have a <fr:repeated-group> in your view, which is not in a
non-relevant group or hidden case, so the control does "exist", and
xforms-enabled should be called. Am I missing something?

Unless the binding is wrong I do have a bind with relevant which checks the value of the dropdown.

<xforms:bind
        nodeset="instance('instance')/groups[@name='ctx-pdl:downloadComponent']/group[@name='ctx-core:group']"
        relevant="instance('instance')/type = 'manual'" />

Repeat group control is not diplayed until you select the dropdown. Even though it is initialized it is not displayed due to relevancy.

Binesh,

The <xforms:bind> makes the groups/group non-relevant, and you point
to that groups/group with the nodeset attribute on
<fr:repeated-group>. But the <xforms:group> on which you listen for
xforms-enabled, you copy the "model context ref bind" attributes, and
those attribute don't point to the groups/group, so that
<xforms:group> will be relevant (even if the <xforms:repeat> a few
lines lower isn't).

I see whats going on. I should either provide the right ref to the repeated-group control or change the xbl:attr of the group to match the binding. Thank You.

Binesh,

You're welcome. XBL is powerful but can be tricky, as anything that
adds one level of indirection.
