Running/Deploying an embedded form outside of Orbeon 4.0

MichaelGregory
Hello,

I am currently using Apache's AJP connector to forward Orbeon traffic to a Tomcat instance. This works for viewing my Orbeon installation and using the form builder and form runner, but when I embed an Orbeon form or summary view using ?orbeon-embeddable=true, some Orbeon functionality does not work (submitting a form produces an error, accessing search control in summary view produces an error). This also includes a lot of css and other references that I would prefer to modify without repackaging the .jar. I'm thinking that it's probably a good idea to run my form by calling a portlet installation of Orbeon, but I am not clear how to go about this. Do I deploy my form as a standalone XForm application as comes packaged with Orbeon?

"Portlet deployment" means that you use Liferay portal, either with
the full portlet or the proxy portlet;

http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/admin/deployment-portlet
http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/form-runner/form-runner-proxy-portlet-guide

I fear that we don't have a great story for simple embedding of Form
Runner at this point besides that. It's not easy to do embedding
properly if you want to include things like navigating between pages,
which Form Runner does.

But we do have some information on embedding here, which you might have seen:
