how to get response from a web service url in xform

Prameela R

 

 

Hello all,

 

My requirement is to get the near by cities of client location.

 

I am able to get those from a web service

 

http://glrs.geobytes.com/map.htm?GetNearByCities&Radius=100&LocationCode=USNYNYOR&template=%3Cgeobytes%20city%3E,%20&units=miles

 

.when I select the above link I can get the response on browser. So to get it into a variable I used Ajax and the response from Ajax is set to a variable in jsp page.

 

If I want to do the same procedure in xform, iam getting an error asking for delimiter”;” so I replaced “&” with “&”

 

But browser will give a Bad response message.

 

Can any body tell how we use above url in xform toget the list of cities?

 

 

Thanks,

Prameela.

What is returned by this service is text, not XML, which means that in  
XForms you'll need to use a submission replace="text". The following  
is an example from the XForms 1.1 spec:
<xforms:submission resource="http://example.com/postalCodeSearch"  
method="get" ref="address" replace="text" target="address/postalCode"/>
You can read more about it on:
