Re: [Chiba-users] when a submission fails chiba stops processing. is this right?

[<u....@gm...>]

hi jason,

i just revisited the chiba implementation of xf:send - and, yes, it=20
stops action processing in case of a submit error. if you want to=20
overcome this behaviour, there should be a workaround:

just use xf:dispatch to dispatch 'xforms-submit' to the submission=20
element in question instead of xf:send. actually, xf:send is just a=20
shortcut doing this. in contrast to xf:send, the xf:dispatch action=20
doesn't care about submit errors.

hope this helps,
uli.
