Working detailed of Orbeon

Dromela
Hi all,

I would like to know one thing about the basic functioning of Orbeon. When will show a XHTML, Orbeon in the page-flow defines an epilogue.xpl. This epilogue receives XHTML at the entrance "data" and depending on the type of container called to another epilogue (in this case epilogue-servlet.xpl). This is ok.

Then, when you are shown the form, if I modify the text of a field ... What intenal call does Orbeon to act when there is an event? (type for example : Xforms-value-changed, DOMFocusOut ...) .

Thanks

When you interact with the form in your browser, the client-side part  
of Orbeon Forms, written in JavaScript, sends Ajax requests to /xforms-
server. This calls an internal pipeline which hooks up to the XForms  
engine.

You can consider that, for most purposes, the XForms engine resides on  
the server. Then there are two phases:

* an initial phase where the XForms engine is initialized and produces  
an HTML page (through pipelines and epilogue)
* further Ajax phases where the user interacts with the form
