Hi Steve,

Ah, yes that would be it. Don’t I feel stupid? J

Regarding the XPL, I have to call it directly as I am using a separate deployment scheme and thus have no page-flow.xml. I will try using the submission method and see if that might work better for what I am trying to do. This would all be so much easier if we could access the model from the DOM… If any devs are reading this, could it be possible to make that a setting?

Thanks!

Stephanie

Hi Stephanie

Your error I think is because xforms:setValue should be xforms:setvalue.

However, the "ref" attribute of xforms:setvalue is a single node binding (http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms/#action-setvalue) - from your code it looks like you are attempting to update all or part of an instance (ie more than one node) - I don't think that will work.

Instead consider defining a submission to update the instance, and within your xforms:action have an xforms:send to kick off the submission.

Also, instead of calling your XPL directly, an alternative approach is to define a URL in your page-flow.xml which executes the XPL, and call that URL to update your instance.

Regards

Steve

Hi,

I keep running into errors when trying to run the following code:

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">

      <xforms:setValue ref="instance('categories-instance')/categories"

            value="xxforms:call-xpl('http://localhost:8080/forms/categories.xpl', instance('categories-instance'),'formatted-output')/*, 'output')"/>

</xforms:action>

The exact error I get each time is: Invalid action: {http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms}setValue. My purpose here is try to populate an instance using a pipeline, but I don’t think it’s even getting there. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong to cause this error? It would probably be better if the error message told me what I was doing wrong, because I’ve seen people use xforms:action with setValue in some of the archives with no errors.

More detail, from the logs:
