XForms generated by XSLT in Firefox

Josh-2007
Hi all,

I've been dealing with this problem for a few days now, and I'm still can't find what I'm doing wrong.

I'm creating an XForms form, from an xml source by using XSLT.
If I load the file on Firefox, - submit - button - select - and - event - don't work.
Furthermore, the generated source in Firefox 2 is a real mess with missing tags althought it's just fine transformed with Xalan or Saxon8B.
I didn't see a similar problem in any forum I came through. If someone finds the problem, it would be of a great help.

Here are a sample of the xml file and the xslt :

XML file=>

Just fine!

Select2 and Select3 don't work
Submit does'nt work either as long as event messages... notice the attribute - event - is empty in the Firefox generated source although it was filled in the XML and is fine with Saxon 8B.

So, any idea?

Re: XForms generated by XSLT in Firefox

Alessandro Vernet

Hi,

You are using XSLT to generate XForms. So this XSLT has to run before
the XForms engine kicks in. If you are using Orbeon Forms, the XForms
engine is running on the server-side. So sending the XML/XSLT to
Firefox won't work. Usually, on the server-side, you will run XSLT
first, and then XForms, and what gets sent to the browser is "just
HTML". Does this make sense, or have I misunderstood your scenario?

Re: XForms generated by XSLT in Firefox

Josh-2007
Hi Alex,

Thanks for taking a look.
Actually I don't use Orbeon, I'm using the XForms extension of Firefox to get the rendering.
I send my xml file which includes a call to the XSLT transformer.
So I presume it is tranformed by XSLT before being output by Firefox.
The tricky point is the output difference between Saxon8B which is just fine (except the -select- buttons which doesn't work) and the generated source from Firefox (by web developper plug-in).
Firefox :
* put a 'meta' tag
* forget some closing tags ('/input' 'br/')
* doesn't show any of the defined namespaces (xforms and DOM event namespaces)
* doesn't show any prefixe xf: ev:
I'm wondering if the problem doesn't come from the messy transformation I get from Firefox and the lack of namespaces.
I attached the XSL transforme file along with the xml source

XSL-XForms.xsl
xml-form-source.xml


and here, you have the transformation result from Saxon8B and Firefox if you want to run the example:

firefox_source.xml
saxon8B.xml

Cheers,

Josh

Hi,

You are using XSLT to generate XForms. So this XSLT has to run before
the XForms engine kicks in. If you are using Orbeon Forms, the XForms
engine is running on the server-side. So sending the XML/XSLT to
Firefox won't work. Usually, on the server-side, you will run XSLT
first, and then XForms, and what gets sent to the browser is "just
HTML". Does this make sense, or have I misunderstood your scenario?

Hi Josh,

I don't have much recent experience running XSLT on the browser. For
most of the use cases I deal with, it just seems that running XSLT on
the server provides a more robust solution. You might want to try
asking the question on the Mozilla XForms list:

Re: XForms generated by XSLT in Firefox

Josh-2007
Hi Alessandro,

Thanks for the information.
Actually I tried another way, I put directly the XForms in my XML main document, so XSLT don't have anything to do except copying the whole lines, and I got the same problem, the submission button doesn't work and when I take a look at the generated source with Web developper, it's not even a well formed xml with missing tags and no namespaces.
I'm installing formsplayer on ie to check if this problem is specific to firefox plug-in or if it's due to a mistake I made.
I'll let you know. In the meantime I'll submit the problem to Mozilla XForm list. Thanks for the advice.

Cheers,

Josh

Re: XForms generated by XSLT in Firefox

Josh-2007
In reply to this post by Alessandro Vernet
Hi Alessandro,

Sorry for the delay, I've been quite busy lately.
Just to let you know, I've checked the Mozilla XForms and made some few attempts.
Actually it's due to Transformiix the engine used by Firefox to deal with xslt which doesn't render all ther required elements for XForms.

This is the bug n° 294612 : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294612

For now, nothing is planned to deal with it as it needs a fix in Transformiix.

I will try using XFormsFilter in eXist which makes the use of Chiba.
Thanks,

Josh

I don't have much recent experience running XSLT on the browser. For
most of the use cases I deal with, it just seems that running XSLT on
the server provides a more robust solution. You might want to try
asking the question on the Mozilla XForms list:

Josh,
    If you don't mind me say, why not use Orbeon? I'm sure it will more than meet your expectations :-)

I send my xml file which includes a call to the XSLT transformer.
So I presume it is tranformed by XSLT before being output by Firefox.
The tricky point is the output difference between Saxon8B which is just
fine
(except the -select- buttons which doesn't work) and the generated source
from Firefox (by web developper plug-in).
Firefox :
* put a 'meta' tag
* forget some closing tags ('/input' 'br/')
* doesn't show any of the defined namespaces (xforms and DOM event
namespaces)
* doesn't show any prefixe xf: ev:
I'm wondering if the problem doesn't come from the messy transformation I
get from Firefox and the lack of namespaces.
I attached the XSL transforme file along with the xml source

http://www.nabble.com/file/7816/XSL-XForms.xsl XSL-XForms.xsl
http://www.nabble.com/file/7827/xml-form-source.xml xml-form-source.xml


and here, you have the transformation result from Saxon8B and Firefox if
you
want to run the example:

http://www.nabble.com/file/7828/firefox_source.xml firefox_source.xml
http://www.nabble.com/file/7829/saxon8B.xml saxon8B.xml

Cheers,

Hi,

You are using XSLT to generate XForms. So this XSLT has to run before
the XForms engine kicks in. If you are using Orbeon Forms, the XForms
engine is running on the server-side. So sending the XML/XSLT to
Firefox won't work. Usually, on the server-side, you will run XSLT
first, and then XForms, and what gets sent to the browser is "just
HTML". Does this make sense, or have I misunderstood your scenario?

Alex
