Reg: Error Handling

Hi Team,

Currently we are facing issues with error handling.

1.       In no script mode:

How can we show error message for each field?

We need to show the error for the particular field on the top, is it possible?

In the logs we are getting only the xforms-submit-error. So we are not able to distinguish between what went wrong.

2.       Error handling in xpl.

a.       We are using the email processor,If the smtp fails or if the mail is not sent then we need to show a our own error page to the user. Is it possible to catch these kind of errors, process it and routing it to the next page?.

b.      If the webservice fails, then also we need to show a page, from there he can go back to the form and resubmit it.

For both the above conditions I don’t want to use the error.xpl provided by orbeon.

3.       In noscript mode the radio control is getting transformed to fieldset while rendering in the browser (orbeon-PE-3.9 version).(However in normal java script enabled mode it is working fine).

Actual code:

<xforms:select1 ref="complaint/contacttype" appearance="full" id="contacttype">

<xforms:label class="labelwrapper">Ik wil antwoord per</xforms:label>

            <xforms:alert>Required</xforms:alert>

                                    <xforms:item>

                                                <xforms:label>Email</xforms:label>

                                                            <xforms:value>Email</xforms:value>

                                                </xforms:item>

                                                <xforms:item>

                                                <xforms:label>Telefoon</xforms:label>

                                                <xforms:value>Telefoon</xforms:value>

                                                </xforms:item>

</xforms:select1>

Html renedered from the browser:

<fieldset class="xforms-control xforms-select1 xforms-incremental xforms-select1-appearance-full" id="my-accordion$contacttype">

<legend class="xforms-label">Ik wil antwoord per</legend>

<span class="xforms-selected"><label for="my-accordion$contacttype$$e0">

<input type="radio" checked="" value="h3OU3eWfoLs=" name="my-accordion$contacttype" id="my-accordion$contacttype$$e0">Email</label>

</span>

<span class="xforms-deselected"><label for="my-accordion$contacttype$$e1">

<input type="radio" value="BgLGydAAg36n/tw6m04IYQ==" name="my-accordion$contacttype" id="my-accordion$contacttype$$e1">Telefoon</label>

</span><

I would require your help in solving these issues. Please do the needful asap.

Hi Eric,

1. I want to show either in the error summary or as an error message above each field(control) when that particular field is invalid during the xform submission.

è I’m using xsd schema for validation, so it would be helpful if you me provide an option relating to that.

2. I’m using oxf:scope-serializer processor for saving a particular data in the session. And after processing I want to remove that particular key from the session. What is the best approach in doing this?

<p:processor name="oxf:scope-serializer">

<p:input name="config">

<config>

      <key>CustomerNumberNJS</key>

      <scope>session</scope>

</config>

</p:input>

<p:input name="data" href="#getuser-request"/>

</p:processor>

The error messages should appear in the error summary whenever there is a user action. Is that not what you see? If so, what do you see?

You mean as opposed to under the field?

You could try the oxf:exception-catcher processor:

This had been requested to improve accessibility. I am not sure if this actually does help accessibility, but the Java code implements this behavior:
