Fine Tuning Ajax Handling in CForms
-----------------------------------

         Key: COCOON-1774
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-1774
     Project: Cocoon
        Type: Improvement
  Components: Blocks: Forms  
    Versions: 2.1.9-dev (current SVN)    
    Reporter: Eric Meyer
 Attachments: fi-styling-ajax-false.patch.txt

Currently, it's all or nothing when it comes to using AJAX on a form. With this 
enhancement, form widgets can be marked with  <fi:styling ajax='false' />, and 
they will trigger a non-ajax form submission.

This was particularly useful on the main submit buttons on a form inconjunction 
with the fi:validation-messages element (see 
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-1570 for why fi:validation-messages 
doesn't work with AJAX). Regardless, I believe it is useful to give the 
developer control over which widgets use AJAX and which do not.

Note that the patch files also include a fix to a separate AJAX issue. 

forms_onsubmitHandlers = null

Causes problems when in AJAX mode - submit handlers are only called the first 
time an ajax submit is called. Thereafter, the array of handlers is null, and 
none are called.
