[orbeon-user] Client side validation

[surabhi]

Hello.

I am trying to achieve client side validation using Orbeon. There are a few questions:

1) Does Orbeon support  DOM Level 2 Event Handling? If so where can I find relevant documentation?

2) The validation of fields that is achieved using "bind" (of the model) happens at the server side. As this increases the response time, I was looking to implement validation using _javascript_. But the problem that I face is how do I identify the controls? E.g. if there is a textbox in an html script with name "myText", I can use the "document.form.myText" construct in _javascript_ to refer to that control. In the context of Orbeon, is it possible to refer to controls in some way in _javascript_?

3) Something elementary like a button does not have an implementation in Orbeon. Is this due to lack of event handling support?

Thanks in advance,
Surabhi
