getting xml-text from request into instance as xml

Heinrich Götzger
Hi,

I would like to have xml-formatted text which comes with the request-attributes into the form as real xml into an instance.

 
         <xf:bind
            nodeset="instance('myInstance')/config"
            calculate="xxforms:serialize(xxforms:get-request-attribute('myInstance'), 'xml')"/>
is not working as expected/wished. The result differs in look and feel from writing it directly into the instance.

//config is the har written part
//raw is the input by serialize and this is not usable for my purposes
I'd like to have it like config somehow.

 
<instance>
   <config>
      <service
         id="execute-generic-action"
         style="document"
         type="webservice"
         endpoint="http://localhost/myApp/ws/executeGenericAction">
         <operation
            soap-action="<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://localhost/myApp/ws/executeGenericAction/executeAction"
            name="execute-action"/>
      </service>
   </config>
   <raw><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <string>&lt;service id="execute-generic-action" style="document"
         type="webservice"
         endpoint="<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://localhost/myApp/ws/executeGenericAction"&gt;&lt;operation
         soap-action="<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://localhost/myApp/ws/executeGenericAction/executeAction"
         name="execute-action"&gt;&lt;/operation&gt;&lt;/service&gt;</string>
   </raw>
</instance>

And using it in a processor later on is not working as well.

Thanks

cheers

Heinrich

the calculate attribute is described in the 1.1 specs as follows (1):

"supplies an expression used to calculate a string value for the
associated instance data node"

important: a string value, not a nodeset. So, i assume you cant insert
a nodeset into a xforms:instance using bind/@calculate.

The wiki contains an example using xforms:insert:
http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/how-to/load-initial-form-data#TOC-The-push-solution

Another way would be to use a xforms:submission, shown on the same page.

Ok, that's what I figured.

No, this is not working either.

well that's the problem, I want to configure the endpoint by params
coming from my servlet of a WebService used by a submission.

Heinrich,

You can configure xxforms:serialize() by passing a pointer to an
xsl:output element:

xxforms:serialize(/my/node, instance('xsl-output-instance'))"/>

<xforms:instance id="xsl-output-instance">
    <xsl:output xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
</xforms:instance>
