Hi XSLTForms list, As you may know, using XSLTForms in the local filesytem without a webserver is practically impossible due to javscript security restrictions and saving an XML Instance to a local file is totally impossible. A solution is to use a eXist-db or a localhost webserver with some script to handle post or put and save the file. There is a really small and easy to use web server called NanoHTTPD http://elonen.iki.fi/code/nanohttpd/ made of just one Java file. I made a small modification on it to allow handling PUT method, and wrote a subclass of NanoHTTPD that handles PUT or xml-urlencoded-post submissions and saves xml instances to local files. I hope you'll find it useful for testing XForms, teaching (I personally will use it for teaching XForms to my University students) or even creating standalone XForms applications. You can download NanoXFServer on http://bitlab.com.co/nanoxfserver/ All your comments are welcome! -- William David Velasquez Laboratorio de Software Bitlab http://bitlab.com.co Movil 310 412 0218 |

Hi William, Thank you for sharing NanoXFServer. I developed a similar product named tXs for .Net and PHP: http://sourceforge.net/projects/txs/ I still think that developing a small proxy-server for the same purpose should be great too! -Alain Le 06/01/2012 19:36, William David Velasquez a écrit : > Hi XSLTForms list, > > As you may know, using XSLTForms in the local filesytem without a > webserver is practically impossible due to javscript security > restrictions and saving an XML Instance to a local file is totally > impossible. > > A solution is to use a eXist-db or a localhost webserver with some > script to handle post or put and save the file. > > There is a really small and easy to use web server called NanoHTTPD > http://elonen.iki.fi/code/nanohttpd/ made of just one Java file. > > I made a small modification on it to allow handling PUT method, and > wrote a subclass of NanoHTTPD that handles PUT or xml-urlencoded-post > submissions and saves xml instances to local files. > > I hope you'll find it useful for testing XForms, teaching (I personally > will use it for teaching XForms to my University students) or even > creating standalone XForms applications. > > You can download NanoXFServer on http://bitlab.com.co/nanoxfserver/ > > All your comments are welcome! > > |

William an Alain, Great work! This is something I have wanted to use in my own XForms training for several years. It make a classroom setup so much easier if students can just write to their local disk and not deal with full Apache web server administration. Is there any chance I can convince you to point me to anything you have written or documentation on this topic? I think it would make for an excellent XForms wikibook article or perhaps a standalone PDF document that could be bundled with the XSLTForms documentation.

Off course Dan, i know the next step is getting good documentation and I´ll be glad of sharing it. I have some ideas, like a step-by-step guide and a youTube video, but I like to hear more. Maybe for the end of this week I´ll get something done. Greetings, William On 07.01.2012 10:29, Dan McCreary wrote: > William an Alain, > > Great work!

Hello All, Is there any support in XSLTForms for "auto-complete" or "auto-suggest" for data entry? Something like auto-suggest that search engines provide for user search terms? I would like for the user to be able to start typing into an input control, and then have auto-suggestions (from previously entered data) to be selectable for input. I would also like the user to able to enter in a new value if the suggested values are not appropriate. Thanks, Morgan ----- Original Message ----- |

Hi William And Alain !!! Really an amazing work. Like Dan we also expected same one from past 3 years. Wonderful option without eXist-db the local save from single Java file. Good time to see more number of xforms implementation. I personally feel xforms growing with you guys support ....
