Greg,
I use eclipse with the WTP plugin as a fancy XML editor and let Orbeon do the parsing of my xforms, but I think quite a large part of the community use the form builder. I think it would certainly do what you ask, like I say feel free to post any problems your having

Thanks for your response Ryan. I will check the archives. So I take it you develop your forms in a text editor of some sort and then let Orbeon do the back end processing? I'm just trying to get a sense for how the community builds their forms. I'm beginning to get the impression that no one uses the Forms Builder app. I am a consultant in the healthcare field and would like to create a template using xforms to document a physicians' interactions with a patient. Trying to figure out the best way of doing that.
Thanks,
Greg

Greg,
Welcome to the community!
I don't personally use the Form Builder as I joined xforms back before Orbeon came up with the novel idea, but I certainly have played around with it
If you post more details about the problems your having with it I'm sure someone will help out
Perhaps check the archive while your waiting for a response, its likely someone has had similar problems
Ryan

Subject: [ops-users] Orbeon Forms Builder Doesn't Work
This is my second post to this mailing list. As a new user, I am unsure if this is getting out to the community but I do know I am receiving posts so I will take a different approach. I’m simply asking two questions that anyone should be able to answer in just a few seconds. The third question only applies if you use the Forms Builder.
Question #1: Is anyone receiving this post (Yes or No)?
Question #2: Does anyone out there use Orbeon Forms Builder or do you just code your xforms using a text editor and let Orbeon do the interpretive work for you?
Question #3: If you use Orbeon Forms Builder, then what is the secret to getting it to work? The reason I ask is that I have had horrible results with the Forms Builder (tried multiple versions including Beta version 3.7.1 and nightly builds) on a XAMPP environment running under Windows 2003 server. I can certainly load this in a Linux environment but suspect I will have similar issues.
Would someone please be kind enough to respond?

Subject: [ops-users] RE: Re: Re: Deploying orbeon in WebSphere Portal 6.1
Anyone having issues with the latest nightly build of Orbeon Forms Builder? I have installed it on a Windows 2003 server running XAMPP (Apache, MySQL, PHP, Perl) with the Tomcat extension. I can connect to the Orbeon application fine but many of the form controls do not appear in the controls panel when I try to build a form. Additionally, the save, publish and test/review buttons will not work. Any help would be appreciated. Is there a functional version of Orbeon out there somewhere that I have missed. Version 3.7.1 beta has similar issues.
Greg
