unchangeable field

Field with properties readonly = 'false' and calculate = "some rule" cannot be modified in Orbeon. I think it is a bug. Chiba allows me to do it.

Try readonly="false()". This definitely works for me. If it still
doesn't work, please post some code.

Assume, we have following code:

...

<xforms:bind nodeset="/instance/users" calculate="2 + 2" readonly="false()"/>

...

<xforms:label>Users:</xforms:label>

</xforms:output>

I would like to change users number on the form. But I am not able. It is always 4. I think it should be possible to change the value of auto-calculated fields. For example, in the government form - the real world example, the expression is not always perfect, man want to put value on his own.

Change @calculate to calculate your value, 2 + 2 will always return 4

Re: Re: Re: unchangeable field

I would like to fill '5' in the form. The system does not allow me to do it.
When I am writing 5 it is automatically changed to 4. I am aware that there
is a rule 2 + 2. But my filling should be more important than the rule.

Re: Re: unchangeable field

In reply to this post by Łukasz Gendek

Lukasz,

I can't say if Chiba or OF implements the standard right (or better,
etc.)
but indeed OF will recalculate the field according to the binding.

Is this an initial value? Is "2 + 2" a simplified example for a more
complex calculation -- that happens when other fields are changed?

My guess is that with OF, you will need to use other methods --
<setvalue>
and <action> elements to achieve what the calculate attribute does.

For example, xforms-value-changed event on any inputs used in the
calculate
will setvalue "users" or xforms-ready if this is a one-time
initialization.

I hope that is some help.

Lucasz,

Recalculation will occur everytime there is an XForms recalculate. I
believe it is the proper behavior that you are observing.

But you could change this to:

calculate="if (normalize-space() = '') then 2 + 2 else ."
