I have just updated to the Orbeon 3.71 nightly build 2010-02-25 but now some of the xforms submissions my application makes appear to result in url's ending in "xforms-server-submit". I just haven't been able to see a pattern as to why sometimes making the submission causes this behaviour.
I was previously using a nightly build dated 2009-09-10 which does not exhibit this behaviour. Is this new behaviour by design? Is there something I need to add to the config to make this work as before? Or is the way submissions supposed to be performed different these days? I think I may have misundestood how page navigation is meant to work in Orbeon. For example, even before this issue I was finding that the URL's displayed were typically unrelated to the current action, often showing the 'previous' page address instead. This makes bookmarking any page difficult. Is there a particular reason why the url's I see don't relate to the paths in my pageflow? Regards, Neil |

Neil,
You are saying that you don't see xforms-server-submit in the URL anymore. This is the result of a change / improvement we did. See: http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/orbeon-forms-faq/faq-xforms#TOC-What-is-the-matter-about-this-xform And relative to the issue of seeing the "previous page in the URL", the first paragraph in the description of this RFE attempts to explain why this is happening: http://forge.ow2.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=310543&group_id=168&atid=350207 Alex On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 3:56 PM, ncrofts <[hidden email]> wrote: > > I have just updated to the Orbeon 3.71 nightly build 2010-02-25 but now some > of the xforms submissions my application makes appear to result in url's > ending in "xforms-server-submit".

Hi Alex,
Actually it is the other way around. With the 25 February 2010 nightly build I have suddenly started to get "xforms-server-submit" showing up in some URL's. Previously with the 09 September 2009 build the same submissions always resulted in the URL's at least containing a path from my pageflow (although as indicated this often was one page behind where I thought it should be). To make matters more complicated, I also have some xhtml anchors on my pages and once the "xforms-server-submit" URL's start appearing these relative links start failing. It appears that the path in the URL changes too. For example, normally my URL's are of the form: http://server/appContextName/subappName/pagename but after xforms-server-submit is displayed the URL changes and the relative links now stop working, presumably because the relative address is different. http://server/appContextName/xforms-server-submit I've read the pages you referenced, but I must admit I am now confused about what the recommended way should be to navigate between pages. For normal xhtml links do I now have to use absolute paths? Regards, Neil |

Hi Neil,
The issue of the "one page behind" should be fixed as of yesterday; see: http://n4.nabble.com/How-to-hide-the-real-URL-td1561436.html#a1570117 You should not see the xforms-server-submit, and I am interested to know what condition would trigger this, so we can fix it. Are you using separate deployment? Do you see a way to create a small app we could run here to reproduce this?

Hi Alex,
I had a brief look at the "one page behind" fix and that certainly seems to help greatly. Thank you very much for that advice. I'll try and put together a standalone test, although it may take a while for me to sort that out, but I will endeavour to do so. We're not actually using a separate deployment yet, although this is something I would like to move towards in the near future. Regards, Neil |

Neil,
Of course, there is no rush. Just let us know when you have that example we can use to reproduce the "xforms-server-submit" showing up in the URL, and we'll have a look at it.
