Talk:XForms

We are looking for great XForms examples. Please fee free to add your own examples.

Just and a line to the table of contents that looks like the following:

### [[/My Example Name/]]

Make SURE to put the double square brackes and a slash before and after the example name. Just save, and click on the link and put your code inside the

tags. We would also like to see a screen image and a discussion of your program.

Thanks for your contributions! --Dmccreary 17:48, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup-NC

I know it is a mistake easily done as so many programming books use the old and now obsolete "Namespace" naming convetion. Still the Book was started 5. September 2006 and therefore must follow the Wikibooks:Naming policy.

--Krischik ^T 06:09, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

OK. I will move the book. I was just following the examples and the link that you pointed me to did NOT explicitily state ANYTHING about not using namespaces in the book name.

--Dmccreary 11:51, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Namespaces are seperated from the main text with a ':' - Like "Talk:", "User:", "Template:", Wikibooks: etc. pp. The confusion comes because ':' is also allowed inside a pagename. So "Programming:XForms" looks like the book "XForms" inside the namespace "Programming" but is isn't. Most real namespaces are used organisatoric pages and "Cookbook" is the only bookshelf which got real namespace. With the Wikibooks:Naming policy we finealy disallowed the namespace look alikes for books or bookshelfs. Real namespaces are still allowed - but you have to apply for one and there are only 255 available.

Are there any tools to move an entire book?

There are some bots which can help but I never used them. We moved 200 page [Ada Programming]] by hand and then run the "redirect fix bot.". As in Wikibooks:Staff lounge for bot use.

Printable version

If anyone wants to create a printable version of this book, the instructions are here: Help:Print_versions. Feel free to do so but note that the Table of Contents is still being updated so the print version will have to stay in sync. Once we get to our first 100 example programs I think that might be a good cut-over point. --Dmccreary 15:17, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

I started to create a pritable version. It is XForms/Print version. It is not finished and would require maintenance for each time I redo a chapter. I hope to create a script that updates the printable verion in the future. Perhaps and XForm app?

Examples Wanted : Another Example added

Hey, I added another example wanted in the examples wanted section. I personally have a few questions in that area and if anyone knows how to do it please tell me here.

Translation in French

I am beginning a French translation. --Dom 20:06, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Best guide for XFORM

http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/1499051 ?? This does not seem to be a guide to xForms? --Logomachist (talk) 17:44, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

and for debugging the xform anyone can use http://xformsinstitute.com/validator/

Its make my life easier in xform and more design independent, i can do more programing not working what designer do.

Xform is best i am waiting when will IE support it.

Or anyone know where to fine patch for IE get supported.

Could someone add info/examples on actions and events?

I would request explanations of actions and events. Is it possible to have a conditional binding (where the binding is only in effect if some condition is true)? I'm having trouble finding this information elsewhere.

Removed Dead Link

The following link is a 404 - it was located on the main title page. So I removed it: wasn't sure if it should be replaced by a new link, so hence made this note in case somebody knows.
