The previous version of JEP-0004 (latest is at http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0004.html) had an example very similar to what you want to do. It was something like this: (actual mascot choices were different) <message from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/foo' to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/bar' thread='unique_id'> <x xmlns='jabber:x:data' type='form'> <title>Mascot choice poll</title> <instructions>Please state your opinion on this matter.</instructions> <field var='opinion' type='list-single' label='Preferred mascot'> <option label='Anxious Ape'><value>aa</value></option> <option label='Bobbing Baboon'><value>bb</value></option> <option label='Charging Chimp'><value>cc</value></option> <option label='Drunken Monkey'><value>dm</value></option> <option label='Grumpy Gibbon'><value>gg</value></option> </field> </x> <body>If you can read this, your client doesn't support JEP-0004.</body> </message> That message would present a five-choice form to the recipient. Answers would, however, go to the sender, not to some central database. An option would be to write a component. Person A sends to the component the text of the message and the JID of person B, and the component forwards the message with appropriate buttons added to person B, and keeps track of responses in a database. Such a thing wouldn't be very difficult to write, I believe. (I have never written a component myself, though, so I might be underestimating it) Regards, Magnus _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://jabberstudio.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev
