Are Load & Save (as in the example <http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/XForms/Insert_and_Delete_into_Table>) implemented in XSLTForms? Local and/or online? Where are the files saved to?

For other browsers, there is a known trick consisting in sending all the data to the server then back to the client with a specific header forcing the client to display the save as dialog. Because of the cross-domain constraint, this cannot be done by a local HTTP server if the initial form comes from another HTTP server. It can be solved using a local proxy instead ! > >> Coupled with a specific proxy (to be developed...), this could be done.

Another server page could do the trick... or a local proxy (did I say that already ? ;-) ) ... Best regards, -Alain |

Ciao,

I think it's better not to implement it.

Is something ready for this? Can I test it?

And what about sending data by e-mail?
