Hi Holger, Yes correct, we want the user to select a query from the SPARQL Library. The user will do this by clicking a button or using a dropdown list, whatever is easiest to implement in an HTML Form, within EDG. The more technical and SPARQL savvy people, will build the queries and add them to the Library. From a separation of concerns, ease of use and re-using what is already there, point of view. What we need is a way for the user to select the query and then for the script to generate an information product, based on this selection. This information product then needs to be stored within Nexus and / or send back to the user. We want to keep the interaction as simple as possible for the user, keep them away from the inherit complexity of EDG.
I wondered if we could use the focusNode as a place to keep state, though this would require the user interaction to change the focusNode. I don't know if this is at all possible. Thank you for the support and the effort you put into it already. It is well received on this side. I hope this answer clarifies the requirements a bit. If you have any suggestions, I'm happy to receive them.
