Xforms Extension

[Suzan]

Hi All, Is there any dreamweaver extension for xforms. I want to design forms
using dream weaver and view the code as xforms instead of html in the 'Code
View' . If there is no extension how can i build mine? for example when
insert a combobox the code should look like this <xforms:select1
appearance='minimal'> <xforms:label>select1</xforms:label> </xforms:select1>
instead of <select name='select'> </select> Thanks

<xforms:select1 appearance="minimal">
<xforms:label>select1</xforms:label>
</xforms:select1>

instead of

<select name="select">
</select>

If you want ot insert that code, probably the easiet way would be to
make snippets to insert the "pure" code into the page.

Beyond that, you coudl also do an Object on the insert bar, that's
pretty easy to do. Read the Extending docs for a basic example fo how to
do that.

If you're looking for a visual representation of the XForms code, then
you'll need to look at doing a Data Translator (common called a
translator) to convert the code in the page into a visual representation.

Just curious: what type of project are you using XForms code for?

Thanks for the answer, i am going to build a form builder using dream weaver and xforms.

Do you have a tutorial for building extensions and using the " Data Translator "

Thanks

No I do not.

However, the documentation for building one was pretty straight forward
and I had a basic one working in about 20 minutes by just copy and
pasting the example they already had and modifying a few lines of code.
