[Xsltforms-support] Implementation of switch / selected="true" behaviour

[Jochen R. <j.r...@gm...>]

Hi Alain,

You probably know this already, I just send you this as a reminder that it
get's not lost in the current development roadmap:

I tested some examples of the XForms Wikibook against Mozilla-0.87-pre and
XsltForms (2 days old SVN Snapshot ) and noticed that the "switch" behaviour
is different:

Example:

<xf:*switch*>
             <xf:*case *id="1" selected="true">1</xf:case>
             <xf:*case *id="2" selected="true">2</xf:case>
             <xf:*case *id="3">3</xf:case>
</xf:*switch*>

Missing behaviour 1: If no select attribute is present, according to the
Spec the first case should be activated:

See:
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-all-20090604.html#ui-switch-module->
Point: 9.2.2

Missing behaviour 2: If multiple selected="true" attributes are present, the
first one shall be activated.

Here the 2 real-world examples from the Wikibook:

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/XForms/Show-Hide_Controls

Xsltforms Rocks !!!

Rusco

Thank you Alain, your latest patch fixes the troubles I had with case
statements.

There is still the cornercase of multiple  - selected = "true" - statements
outstanding, but this is really low prio.

What about promoting the current trunk to a new relase ?

Best Regards
Rusco.

Those modifications are typical differences between XForms 1.0 and 
XForms 1.1. They are not especially difficult to implement but each 
requires something like one hour...

"Error" treatments are not yet my priority but I agree those situations 
might also appear...

Yet another time problem... Plenty of tests have to be performed with 
all the recent browsers (help is welcome ;-) ). Before the end of 
September seems, for me, to be a possible challenge.

Thanks!
