adding XInclude into /xforms-hello/view.xhtml as a test

This post was updated on .

I've been reading about XInclude ..
but I can't get a simple example to work in /xforms-hello/ as a test app.

I've added in this namespace ..

xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

and this line in body of view.xhtml ..

<xforms:instance id="main-model-instance" src="oxf:/main-xforms-instance.xml"/>

with the included xml file in same folder as view.xhtml

but I don't see any rendering of included xml file .. main-xforms-instance.xml

...

I have xforms inspector enabled which shows the namespace .. xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

...

Any advice? I have been reading the wiki tutorials.

...

[EDIT]

Since posting I've been playing with xforms inspector and I see now that I can select "model" and view instances in the inspector .. so I guess I don't have the correct code in view.xhtml which renders the included instance?

I don't see any xi:include element below. Also, you don't say what you
want to do so it's hard to answer.

Thanks .. I'll keep reading the XInclude tutorials until it sinks in ..

this old thread comes quite near to what I am trying to do ..

http://orbeon-forms-ops-users.24843.n4.nabble.com/Xinclude-and-absolute-paths-td31881.html#a31884

i.e. to include dynamic xml content using (in my case) *.php to return xml .. but it could also be *.jsp as in the above thread.

My snippets to XInclude in view.html will be in http://localhost:8080/orbeon/xforms-php/include.php

and the returned content will be XML (with content header set) delivered to the xi:include element (which I agree I didn't add to my post).

[p.s.] I've dropped my earlier idea to use JSF facelets since XInclude seems the right approach.

[p.p.s] Also I should clarify I'm now running orbeon as a webapp on caucho.com resin server which has integrated PHP Quercus servlet .. but as I've pointed out above the XInclude href could equally be *.jsp instead of *.php
