[Xsltforms-support] Minimal triggers scrolling the page

[Micah D. <Mic...@ma...>]

Hey Alain,

Right now, triggers with appearance="minimal" use an <a href="#"> element, which has the undesirable effect of scrolling the page to the top.

The responsible code looks like this:

<xsl:template xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" match="xforms:trigger|xforms:submit">
	<xsl:variable name="innerbody">
		<xsl:apply-templates select="xforms:label">
			<xsl:with-param name="appearance" select="'span'"/>
		</xsl:apply-templates>
	</xsl:variable>
	<xsl:call-template name="field">
		<xsl:with-param name="appearance">none</xsl:with-param>
		<xsl:with-param name="body">
			<xsl:choose>
				<xsl:when test="@appearance = 'minimal'">
					<a href="#">
						<xsl:copy-of select="$innerbody"/>
					</a>
				</xsl:when>
				...

Would it be possible to change the minimal trigger (or add a new appearance choice with some name other than 'minimal') to use an href of "javascript:void(0);" or something else that doesn't trigger the scroll effect?

For example, adding a new choice like

			<xsl:choose>
				<xsl:when test="@appearance = 'minimal'">
					<a href="javascript:void(0);">
						<xsl:copy-of select="$innerbody"/>
					</a>
				</xsl:when>
				...

What do you think?
