error dialog configuration

Hi,

according to the explanation on:
http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/error-dialog ,

I tried editing the general error-dialog in our orbeon instance ( a 3.9.1 PE). However, changing the error-dialog.xml file in the config folder had no effect at all. I tried placing our custom version in the apps/fr folder (we only use the form runner app), but this resulted in a total freeze of the application: buttons were no longer clickable when this file was present.

We really need to change this, because we need to change the link to the homepage, but I can't find where to edit it so that changes will be reflected in form runner. Could you tell me where I can make the changes for form runner?

I'd rather not go to my last resort: turning the error dialog off completely (as described in http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/configuration-properties/configuration-properties-xforms#TOC-Errors ). What would happen in case of errors when I turn the dialog off?

Sincerely,

Hi Erik,

Thanks for the tip about restarting, I had only done webapp reloads before. I tried again with a minor change and I saw the change.

However, what I really want to do is remove the two divs which control the showing and hiding of "details". I never want to show details. But when I remove those, orbeon freezes up as explained before, even with container restart.

It's the following I tried to remove:

<div class="xforms-error-panel-details-hidden">
            <p>
                <a class="xforms-error-panel-show-details">
                    <img src="/ops/images/xforms/section-closed.png" alt="Show Details"/>
                    <span>Show details</span>
                </a>
            </p>
        </div>
        <div class="xforms-error-panel-details-shown xforms-disabled">
            <p>
                <a class="xforms-error-panel-hide-details">
                    <img src="/ops/images/xforms/section-opened.png" alt="Hide Details"/>
                    <span>Hide details</span>
                </a>
            </p>
            <div class="xforms-error-panel-details"/>
        </div>


Also, is there an easy way to make the dialog language-dependant?

bye,

Koen,

It should work! Placing your own version under WEB-INF/resources/apps/fr/error-dialog.xml should definitely override the default after a container restart.

For reference the latest Form Runner error dialog is here, and still under the same path:

https://github.com/orbeon/orbeon-forms/blob/master/src/resources/apps/fr/error-dialog.xml

If you turn it off, it just won''t show and there won't be any user feedback. But there is a JavaScript hook you can use, which is documented right there with the oxf.xforms.show-error-dialog property.
