Hello, I'm very delighted with the possibility to customise submission procedure with DSpace 1.5 alpha. I wanted to ask help in implementing a bit more complicated procedure with XMLUI, as I am not familiar with DSpace source or development.
The idea is first to get the metadata from the submitters, saving the submission unfinished, and submitters could complete their submissions later by uploading files and completing the standard procedure. So, if submitter would answer yes to initial question "are submitting just the metadata?" he/she would be presented the Describe step, but only with "Save" button which would then force to save the current submission as unfinished. Later, if the submitter resumed to the submission from his/her submissions page, the later steps would come into effect, and he/she could upload the files and complete the submission in a "standard" way. I've gone through the "Customizing and Configuring Submission User Interface" manual, but haven't examined thoroughly step classes' source, and really hope that it wouldn't be necessary to proceed. Thank you for any information or hints! -- Karo Salminen sovellussuunnittelija Systems Analyst Kirjastoverkkopalvelut National Library Network Services Kansalliskirjasto National Library of Finland PL 26 (Teollisuuskatu 23) 00014 Helsingin yliopisto puh.
