xforms markup within data

Hi,

I have a requirement to display arbitrary HTML embedded within instance values, for which I am using <xf:output ref="somenode" mediatype="text/html"/>

However, the arbitrary HTML can include arbitrary values from other instance documents.

Consequently I need to achieve the effect of being able to render arbitrary HTML that might include xf:output elements and for these to be evaluated and updated as values change. Is there anyway that I might achieve the result I need with Orbeon?

Best wishes

Mark

Mark,

So you have an instance which contains not only XML, but xf:output elements?

In that case that won't work:

<xf:output ref="somenode" mediatype="text/html"/>

won't interpret xf:output under the "somenode" tree.

You could maybe use some bind/@calculate to do something like:

bind ref="//xf:output" calculate="saxon:evaluate(@value)"

(I haven't tried this.)

This won't do exactly what you want as the nested xf:output will
remain. But you could maybe transform the xf:output first, e.g. into
<div> elements.

Just thinking out loud here!
