I do. But for example dataModel.getChildren() is not defined (throws an error).
Maybe I'm too stupid to find the right class.
In Form.js, it says
function Form(formDefinition) {
...
this.formWidget = new Widget(this.form);
...
}
Form.prototype.getModel = function() {
return this.formWidget;
}
So the returned object must be of class Widget.
I found a JavaAdapter-thing with a Java-interface in Widget.java (lies in
src.blocks.forms.java.org.apache.cocoon.forms.formmodel) and the corresponding
Widget.js (lies in
src\blocks\ajax\resources\org\apache\cocoon\dojo\resources\dojo-0.3.1-widget\src\widget).
(I assume - am I wrong?)
But I can't call the functions defined there, so it must be the wrong class.
The toString()-method of my object likely returns something else than defined
there.
Seems like I've been barking at the wrong tree, but where shall I look for that
class?

Actually I don't know how that PageLocal-object works, but it sets back itself.
I do not trigger that explicitly. I assume the pageLocla.object saves a state
of himself referenced by the continuation-id. But this is only an assumption.

What do you mean by that?

Yes, I wanted to say, that reading the values in a loop doesn't work.
And getValue should return the value of a inner(e.g. a field-widget) widget, so
I don’t understand why using it here.

So, where is the class definition of the object that is returned by
formModel.getModel()
?
