Thanks very much for your update. As I guess from the info: nobody has
done it before or done it but didn't publish it yet.
Is current ODF->XHTML translation done with XSLT? In which case the
positioning problem also exist. If so, modifying this very XSLT seems to
be the shortest cut.
I am completely dump in regarding to ODF/XForms (I *thought* ODF/XForms ->
XHTML/XForms exists already because I thought I met a common problem). I
didn't ready ODF specs; as I cannot get enough knowledge within short
time, can I ask for estimation on how much work there is left to finish
this ODF/XForms -> XHTML/XForms tramsform? Is it on weeks level or months
level?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Gildor
I would think the direction from ODF/XForms to XHTML/XForms is quite
doable
because the ODF supports a limited subset of XForms (model, bindings,
lists and
submissions). Not so easy to have XHTML/XForms to ODF/XForms of course.
The challenge might be with the positioning of the form controls in the
XHTML
equivalent of the ODF which after all would be the main asset of using
OOo as
a WYSIWIG XForms editor.
I've been trying to use the XSLT filter facility for OOo recently for
the first time in
earnest and have found some problems which I'm concerned might be due to
XSLT limitations and behaviors in the OOo XSLT engine. Anyone know which
engine is used and know of any such peculiarities, by the way?
I truly hope you get on well in trying such a conversion.
Best regards

Dear all
Is it possible to use the XForms documents created in OOO (host language
is probably ODF) in X-smiles? If not, is it difficult to write some XSLT
to transfer host language from ODF to XHTML so that can be used in
X-smiles? Or any other XForm player.
OOO is the best (?) WYSIWYG XForms designer available and it would be a
pity if XForms designed in it can only be used with XForms-enabled ODF
reader (e.g. ooo itself).
I don't know how OOO export-as-xhtml works, is it an complex XSL sheet
behind it? Then probably it's possible to adjust XSLT in it to make it
happen.
