Where will the data come from? I.e. how are you going to populate the eXist database? In a normal usage scenario, you would hit the "New" button, fill out a new instance of the form, save it, and it will then show up in the Summary page. Of course, you can look at what Form Runner puts in your database when you do that, and write code that populate the eXist database in the same way.

Hi,

Saving document is too high level to me now.
At the begining I try to browse xml file from eXist database.
There are some code I'm using:

<xforms:instance id="RCAR-instance"
src="http://localhost:8080/exist/rest/db/simple1/RCAR.xml">
</xforms:instance>

<xforms:bind id="control-4-bind" nodeset="instance('query-results')/RCAR/RCAID"
name="control-4"/>

<xforms:instance id="list-documents-query">
<exist:query>
<exist:text>
xquery version "1.0"
for $id in /exist/rest/db/simple1/RCAR.xml
return
<RCARS>
<RCAR>
<RCAID>1</RCAID>
<PRONTOID>1</PRONTOID>
<RCID>1</RCID>
<SWDEV>roman</SWDEV>
<DATAFROM>2009-10-01</DATAFROM>
<DATATO>2009-10-20</DATATO>
</RCAR>
</RCARS>
</exist:text>
</exist:query>
</xforms:instance>

<xforms:submission id="list-documents-submission"
ref="instance('list-documents-query')"
method="post"
resource="http://localhost:8080/orbeon/fr/simple1/Rcar_form"
replace="instance"
xforms:instance="query-results"/>
<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-model-construct-done">
<xforms:send submission="list-documents-submission"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:instance id="query-results">
<RCAR/>
</xforms:instance>

The solution in
http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/form-runner-programmer-guide
doesn't work

In examples provided by Orbeon there are no one which describes how to create
application using forms in Orbeon database (without page-flow.xml)
but this solution is encouraged

Best regards,
Robert

I read you, but I am not sure how we could help you. it feel like having discussion this in front of a white board would help. If you are fluent in XForms, maybe try to do this first without putting Form Runner in the mix.

Orbeon Forms is useless. There is no good documentation. It takes too much time
to do sth.

Sorry if my opinion is irritating. I just lost a lot of time trying doing
something simple because I reckon that your product has big possibilities which
I 'd like to take advantage
I think that if you attached an example which describes a case where forms are
created by Form Builder, data in seperate eXist database and Form Runner
provided them with users , the numbers of mails would be decreased
significantly

Yes, completely agreed! We will be doing all this, and also improve
Form Builder to have better documentation, and be more user friendly.
Like you, we would like to be "there" already, but there is still some
work to be done. And this is why we describe Form Builder as a
"preview". Something to be used by intrepid developers, or by those
who work more closely with us.
