Hello,
I have foreign keys defined in my dbforms-config.xml model (these are not
really defined [cannot be retrieved by jdbc metadata] in my mysql db - i
mark them myself in the XML). But when I generate using dbforms 2.3, it
does not generate drop down boxes. I looked at XSLT files, I can't find
any drop down box generation code. In generate_validation.xsl file there
is some comment that says these are generated in other xsl files. Where
are they generated? How are they generated? I am about to make changes to
the XSLs myself but I want to make sure they are not available before I
implement myself.
Any ideas? are you able to generate drop downs from your model?
Regards,
Ali
<xsl:when
test="$foreignKey">
<!-- Foreign
keys are generated with drop-down boxes in the other XSLs, so it's
assumed that they're filled in - and besides,
the required values would have to be checked against a foreign table. So
it's easier just to require them and let dbforms
return a "normal" error for misassignment of a foreign-key.
