Hi,
We have chosen to implement forms with Orbeon, but we have a strong accessibility constraint and must provide an accessible version of our forms. I'm thinking of 2 options: 1/ Write an alternative version of the form with pure XHTML (no Xforms, no javascript) and use the page flow controller and the XPL processors to process the request. 2/ Modify the orbeon engine to make it accept form submissions with javascript disabled on the browser. Solution 1 would be OK, but I find it unsatisfying because It doesn't make use of XForms and we would have to develop a second form for every form we want to put online. Solution 2 could be an option if the workload remains reasonable (less than 10 days for a good J2EE developer). So here's my question: how big an effort would it be to make orbeon run with javascript disabled on the browser?

Eric,
You are in luck, because we will be working on #2 in the summer :-) -Erik On Jun 4, 2008, at 3:38 PM, [hidden email] wrote: > Hi, > > We have chosen to implement forms with Orbeon, but we have a strong > accessibility constraint and must provide an accessible version of > our forms. > > I'm thinking of 2 options: > 1/ Write an alternative version of the form with pure XHTML (no > Xforms, no > javascript) and use the page flow controller and the XPL processors > to process > the request. > 2/ Modify the orbeon engine to make it accept form submissions with > javascript > disabled on the browser. > > Solution 1 would be OK, but I find it unsatisfying because It > doesn't make use > of XForms and we would have to develop a second form for every form > we want to > put online. > Solution 2 could be an option if the workload remains reasonable > (less than 10 > days for a good J2EE developer). > > So here's my question: how big an effort would it be to make orbeon > run with > javascript disabled on the browser? > > Regards, > Eric Ficheux > > -- > You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] > mailing list. > To unsubscribe: mailto:[hidden email] > For general help: mailto:[hidden email]?subject=help > OW2 mailing lists service home page: http://www.ow2.org/wws Orbeon Forms - Web Forms for the Enterprise Done the Right Way http://www.orbeon.com/ -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.
