WYSIWYG Web Form/Xform editor

rscheele — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 19:31:05 GMT

Hi everybodyI'm trying to make Web Form development as easy as it gets for non-technical users. With the current offering of Alfresco WCM, Web Forms are based on XML Schemas with require some 'technical' knowledge.Does anybody know of some (open source) WYSIWYG editor for creating XForms. E.G. dragg

Some XML editors (XML Spy, oXygen, etc.) provide graphical XML schema builders, but they're probably still a little too technical for casual or non-technical users. I'd also be keen to hear if anyone knows of any others that are more "end user" friendly!

Cheers,
Peter

I was looking for something to do to learn jQuery better about 12 months ago and put together http://mikenovember.com/2007/javascript-wysiwyg-form-editor/ after seeing and playing with JotForm. It's by no means a complete solution, but if you've got lots of spare time it might be a start

I have just been working with http://www.orbeon.com . It has a forms builder (alpha version released 5/14/2008, but so far very clean) and uses eXist XMLB repository. It would be great to integrate with Alfresco.

We are currently working with the developers at Orbeon to integrate Orbeon XForms Builder into Alfresco 3.0. We should have a sample documented on our wiki by the end of August. Anyone interested in such an integration, feel free to email me lee.faus at alfresco.

Greetings Lee,
I would be interested in this feature could u share your presentation from Aug 9 2008 (Title: Java-Backed Web Scripts and Orbeon Integration). This would help me to get the insight into this topic.

Thanks
