'xforms.js' related query

Erik,

I am using frames in my sample OPS application. Let main.xml be the file that loads two frames.

main.xml

<html>

<head>

</head>

</frameset>

</html>

Let page1.xsl be the file that is loaded in the first frame and page2.xsl be that loaded into the second. Now my requirement is that, I need to load a page into the second frame based on the feedback obtained after a submission that is made on the page1.xsl (suppose, for example, page3.xsl need to be loaded into the second frame only if the submission in the page1.xsl yields a success flag)

In OPS 3.0.1 accomplished this by editing the xforms.js as follows:

xforms.js

case "load": {

var loadElement = actionElement.childNodes[actionIndex];

var resource = loadElement.getAttribute("resource");

var show = loadElement.getAttribute("show");

var target = loadElement.getAttribute("target");

if (show == "replace") {

//change made to load the resultant page to another frame within the same frameset

if (target == null && parent.pageframe2!=null)

{

parent.pageframe2.location = resource;

}

else window.location.href = resource;

}

else {

window.open(resource, "_blank");

}

break;

}

In page1.xsl, I have the following code:

<xforms:submission ref=instance(instance) id=default-submission method=post replace=instance instance=response/>

<xforms:group ref=instance(response)/flag>

<xforms:action ev:event=xforms-value-changed>

<xforms:load resource=/page3/>

</xforms:action>

</xforms:group>

The flag tag within the response instance will be present only if the submission response returns success. On that occasion, the xforms-value-changed event will occur and as a result the resource /page3 will be loaded in pageframe2.

Ill be grateful to you, if you could suggest me some measures to do the above said activities without editing the xforms.js file.

Thanks

Joseph Lawrence

Joseph,

> I am using frames in my sample OPS application.

The second opiniated remark of the day: frames are evil, don't use
them! But you probably have a good reason ;-)

This said, I think you can simply use this:

<xforms:load resource="page3" xxforms:target="pageframe2"/>
