Hello everybody, we've just released Chicoon 0.9.9 which builds upon the java-based W3C XForms implementation 'Chiba' and brings XForms to the Cocoon platform.
Chicoon wraps a thin layer around Chiba to make it work inside Cocoon. It comes as a Cocoon Action to be used anywhere in your pipelines. I know Cocoon has its own framework CForms but for those that are looking for standard conformance and maybe some of the following features are welcome to try it and give feedback. Some of the features: - full XML Schema datatype support - descriptive validation through XPAth expressions - calculation module with dependency tracking - extensible connector API to pull and submit data to arbitrary sources/targets - easy form-chaining (no scripting required) - very stable and tested core XForms processor Note the following: - we're no Cocoon wizards at all so the integration might still be improved much - the standard stylesheet generates scriptless html so interaction is poor. Javascript generation is planned for the next releases of Chiba to improve user-experience. you can download Chicoon at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=20274&package_id=78897 Comments welcome.
