hello,
thanks you Joerg that helped me a lot. And you are rigth about the default way, but i wasn't aware of the function Form.js in this case. Good to know where this file is, thanks!
my question remaning is how to bind several forms. do i have to call the handleForm function seperatly for each form or can i pass several bindingURI's
and from-definitions in one sitemap match area.
The default handles only one form on a page, not many forms. CForms is not even really multiple-forms-aware, but taking care about some things should make it possible.
1. handleForm() instantiates the form. If you need multiple forms, you also need multiple instances, what you have already done (in the private mail):
var form1 = new Form("cform-definitions/widgets_table_event.xml");
var form2 = new Form("cform-definitions/widgets_table_goods.xml");
var form3 = new Form("cform-definitions/widgets_table_person.xml");
var form4 = new Form("cform-definitions/widgets_table_means_of_transport.xml");
To complete the form instances you also need to create a binding for each:
form1.createBinding("binding1.xml");
form2.createBinding("binding2.xml");
...If you need to load some values you also need to load them for all form instances:
form1.load(bean1); form2.load(bean2); //or bean1 again ...
The same is true for the save later.
So the binding framework has absolutely no problems with multiple form instances. Displaying the form and handling a form submit is much more interesting. I don't know exactly how you can make it work, probably by passing the form instances to the FOM context:
cocoon.sendPageAndWait("confrim_event", {"form1": form1, "form2": form2, ...});
Maybe someone has already tested it.
