The only "tool" I have been able to find is, indeed, CForms... with the htmlArea for "embedded" formatting/styling (problem is that, as shipped, the htmlArea "tags" are not stored as XML but that's another issue...)
I doubt there is an "instant" fix, but it would be interesting to hear what other apps are out there. From a search through the mailing list (did you try this?), there is the Jaxe option: see http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/JaxeCocoon Alternatively, both Bitflux and Xopus have been raised as possibilities. Of course, it might be that you are the person that writes the "schema-analysing-form-building" app that we are waiting for!! >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004/12/14 04:07:44 AM >>> I've built a Cocoon site and all the content is in xml files. I created content using an Eclipse XML plugin, which is fine for me as a technical person, but now I need to allow a couple dozen non-technical people to be able to create/edit/delete these xml files themselves, using a browser. I don't want to have to 'manually' build a bunch of forms and form processing and file i/o code to create these interfaces for the half dozen different xml data structures I have. This type of code has been written too many times before by so many people, I'm certain, it's crazy to build it all again. Seems to me that someone by now has built some kind of tool -- either server-side or a client side app -- that can basically analyze a DTD or xml file or Cforms kinda document, then generate a web-based form for content create/edit/delete, and then write the files to disk. Can Cforms or some other tool do this?
