  • Inside the XForms validator by Micah Dubinko   - [Clicks: 24]
    Performing validation on mixed-namespace documents can be more art than science. XForms 1.0, which is used as a component inside arbitrary host languages, introduces some new questions about how a validator should process such documents. This article discusses some of the challenges that the author encountered while writing an online XForms validator tool, and techniques for overcoming these problems.

  • Tip: Send multiple Web services requests from XForms by Nicholas Chase   - [Clicks: 35]
    A typical HTML form only lets you submit to one URL at a time, which makes it difficult to retrieve information from multiple Web services. This tip shows you how to use XForms to solve that problem by using multiple submissions from a single form.

  • Tip: Create an XForms form that submits a second instance by Nicholas Chase   - [Clicks: 42]
    Because they can easily send and receive XML, XForms forms make great Web services clients, but using them in this way limits your control over the structure of your instance. This tip explains how to manage your data within one instance while submitting a second.

  • Tip: Use XForms to send and receive Web services messages by Nicholas Chase   - [Clicks: 38]
    One of the great strengths of XForms is the fact that an XForms client can send its data as XML, and that it receives XML in return. This capability can be exceptionally useful in the field of Web services, where that's exactly what gets sent and received: XML messages. In this tip, I'll look at how to use an XForms browser as a Web services client, sending a SOAP request and displaying the results directly in the browser.

  • XForms: The new generation Web form by Daniel Rubio   - [Clicks: 26]
    The submission of data on any Web site is pretty much its lifeblood. From registration to purchases, we constantly request data from our end users, often using the typical HTML form that has been around since the Internet's inception. Now, however, we have XForms, a new generation of Web forms developed under the guidance of the W3C.

  • Introduction to XForms: XML Powered Web Forms by T. V. Raman   - [Clicks: 33]
    As we deploy Web access to software at all levels of complexity ranging from business back-ends to simple electronic transactions, we need to revisit the design of HTML forms that are the essential underpinnings of the transactional Web. XForms — a revision to the existing HTML forms technology developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) - builds on the advantages of XML to create a versatile forms module that can stand the Web in good stead for the next decade.

  • XForms Basics, Part 3 by Harish Kamath   - [Clicks: 36]
    In the previous article, I showed you how to manage user input in the XForms model. I discussed the process of submitting an XForm and - more importantly - validating user input prior to submission using built-in XML Schema support. In this concluding article, find out how to use the <xforms:bind> element to perform calculations on form input values, integrate XPath expressions into your XForms model and get a crash course in the XForms event model.

  • XForms Basics, Part 2 by Harish Kamath   - [Clicks: 28]
    In the first part of this series, I gave you a quick introduction to the newly-released XForms 1.0 specification, by explaining the fundamental concepts of the XForms model. Now that you know the basics, find out how to submit XForms data to a server-side script or save it to a local client file, and also read about how XForms can integrate with XML Schemas to simplify input validation.

    Today, XML is most definitely in the mainstream, and proving its mettle by making all kinds of new and unique applications possible (witness the success of Amazon.com's AWS service, or the Google APIs, both based on XML technology). This article provides an introduction to XForms, a recent W3C Recommendation that suggests using XML to manage the display, input and processing of form data on the Web.
