A combination you may want to have a look at is using Dojo toolkit (
http://dojotoolkit.org/ ) on the client and cocoon's REST
implementation on the server. From a performance point of view this is
very efficient. Dojo does not require any knowledge of XML. It favors
JSON (www.joson.org) instead.

Hey, this looks veeeeery interesting: do you have any running (simple)
example about this? Are you planning to write something about this?

I am working on several applications, but they are not yet public. But it is all fairly simple. I would start with reading on cocoon to understand how to receive and handle REST-like requests. The cocoon 3 website is very clear (at least to me). These requests can be generated with dojo [1].

Hem, I was wondering if you plan to write something about your work (a blog, wiki page, ...) mainly to have a common reference - or better, a working example - for people wanting to approach Cocoon 3.

Ah OK, yeah, sure, at some point I could do this. In the mean time, you should have a look at the sample application [1] that C3 provides.

Well, I think I rather know that code ;-) - you should be able to find my name in [2] as well.
Anyway, I am looking forward to see something about this topic.

Regards.

Hi! As mentioned in the subject, Cocoon project is something new to
me. While
still exploring, I must admit I'm beginning to really like it. The
question
is simple and perhaps a little stupid, but here goes - are there any
developed tools/editors (possibly wysiwyg) that allow simple users,
with no
xml (java) knowledge create/generate a form (actually form model,
template
etc.) directly from the web - working as some kind of cms in a more
tidy
way.
Hi,
unfortunately there is nothing about what you say above. I know that
there has been something in that direction in the past, but nothing
progressed enough to be considered usable.

Which version are you running? 2.1 or 2.2?
Anyway, if you are stepping for the first time into Cocoon fields, I'd
rather suggest you to start looking at version 3.0 [1]; despite its
alpha status, it's quite mature.
Cocoon 3.0 pushes a "minimal" approach: so for example you would deal with proper web frameworks (like as Wicket [2], for example, for which a
cocoon-wicket integration module is available), leaving the XML
processing stuff to Cocoon pipelines.

If you are interested, there are some samples about Cocoon-Wicket
integration [3] and Cocoon-Hippo CMS integration [4].

Regards.
