Andrew,

From flow you can do...

cocoon.load("resource://org/apache/cocoon/forms/flow/_javascript_/Form.js");
...
var questions = someMethodToGetQuestions();
var model =  loadDOM("forms/application/definition.jxt ", {"questions": questions});
var form = new Form(model.getDocumentElement());
form.showForm("forms/application/template.jxt");

Hope this helps...

Hi there,

I am trying to generate a dynamic form template so I can create a list of questions that the user will answer from a set of questions stored in a database table.

I am setting the definition file by using a pipeline -  cocoon:/forms/application/definition.jxt  

To generate a JXT file.

 This works as a basic form but I need to pass a Java Object to it so that I can get a list of question objects from which to create the question set of widgets. Can anyone give me any advice or are there any examples of something  similar anywhere.

I am using cocoon 2.1.8

Thanks,

Andrew
