I am attempting to use MarkLogic and xsltforms to load data from an xml file
(stored in a MarkLogic database) into the form, edit the data in the form, and
then save the edited xml file back to the MarkLogic database.
I have created the database and the HTTP server. The form correctly reads the
data from the database file ('/test/data.xml') and loads it into the form in
the browser.
The part that does not work is saving the edited file back to the MarkLogic
database (<xf:submission method="put"/>). Can someone explain to me how to
enable the submission? Does it depend on webdav? What are the setup steps?
The xquery is below.
Thanks,
Morgan Cundiff
