Re: [Xsltforms-support] Forms loaded from local filesystem

Hi Alain,

The submission in my case is to an "https://" address. So with a slight modification your suggested changes should work for my case too!


Thanks!!


Kind regards,

Mats

Hi Mats,

XSLTForms is currently considering that submissions from a local
      form are always for the local disk but, in your case, the
      corresponding resource should be starting with "http://", is that right?

Could you please test replacing:

at 7813,
   window.location.href.substr(0, 7) === "file://"
with
   (window.location.href.substr(0, 7) === "file://" && action.substr(0, 7) !== "http://")

at 7942,
   (window.location.href.substr(0, 7) === "file://" && method !== "get")
with
   (window.location.href.substr(0, 7) === "file://" && action.substr(0, 7) !== "http://" && method !== "get")

Thank you for your feedback!

--Alain
