I also added yesterday server-side event handling features, and the ability for a widget to trigger form submit. Checkout the carselector sample (updated a few minutes ago) that demonstrates this, and also the number panel in the "Various" page.
It certainly doesn't provide the same user experience as Joerg's impressive XUL application but, well... works on any browser ;-)
Of course, we could also have stylesheets producing XUL for Woody forms. Any taker ?
This would be a pretty neat demonstration of the flexibility of Woody, and Cocoon in general. The only problem I noticed when researching XUL is that all of the form validation is pretty much client-side since it's mainly for being run under Mozilla.
No need for this. You can handle it like any HTML form. We do it client side in ConWeb for the sheets because of the massive number of form fields. The rest of the forms (user profile => "Benutzerprofil" in German; admin views) are validated server side.
There is very little functionality in the way of "submitting" a form to a remote server, but I did find that there is a Javascript function you can call which posts XML to a remote server, so this might just be all we would need to hook it into Cocoon.
Can't confirm. There is no problem including XHTML into XUL and so a <html:form/> including a button that submits the form.
There is the more or less IE-compatible XMLHttpRequest object. Don't know whether it's possible to send XML, at least you can receive it and get it easily parsed. See http://www.mozilla.org/xmlextras/ and the test pages at http://www.mozilla.org/xmlextras/tests.html. We send the request as with HTML forms: ?param1=value1¶m2=value2.
