Preview window

I need to make a preview page for the instance of a xForm,
so the user can see it before submission.
Have somebody ever made something like this?
I can't find example that I could use as a reference.
I shall appreciate any tip how this could be achieved.

What I have is a form with Preview button.
I also have an XSLT style sheet that I want to use for xml-> html
conversion.
What I'm missing is knowledge of the common practice how to open a new
browser window and feed data into it.
Just a sketch description might help.

Thank you.

Hi Taras
Did you get anywhere with the previous response to this?  I've pasted it

Now the issue arises if you are trying to have the new window access the

instance of the previous window. Somehow, you need to pass some
information between the two.

One solution (unfortunately) is to use the session: store the instance
from the first page into the session with a unique id, and pass that id
on the URL of the new window. Not too clean.

Another solution is to not use another window, but use an HTML DIV
within the same window. The preview would just show the div, which can
overlay the rest of the page.

A solution for the future could be to enhance xforms:message to support
full XHTML + XForms markup. The XForms engine would take care of opening

the window or the overlay. But that's for the future.

Stephen,

Thanks a lot.
I have never seen this reply,
must have been something related to the corporate spam filter...
I'll let you know how far can I get with this.
