Nested nodes in XML Forms Builder form

Hello,
I have an XML schema that includes collections of child entries I would like to have editable from the one form. I can create the schema but can't work out how to create the form - can anyone help me?
The structure is like this:
<item>
...<name>
...<showLinks>
...<links>
......<linkUrl>
......<linkLabel>
The name and option to show links is contained only once in the document, but there could be multiple links.
Many thanks,
Mal.

Hi Stefan,
Read this article "Linking Your Own List Forms into iViews " in help.sap.com. Hope it will resolve your issue.

  • In XML form builder data schema not clickable

    Hi ,
    I have installed JRE version 1.6.0_07. When i click on xml foms builder ,it gets opened but when i click on data schema it's not clickable but icon is displayed next to data schema.I am not able to create any node in data schema.
    Regards.
    Adity.

    Hi,
    my problem is simular to Aditys: My Java Version is JRE 1.6.0_15. When I go to Content Managment --> Formbuilder, the XML Forms Builder starts automatically but it is not possible to open Data Schema. After downgrade to Java 1.4 I can not start the Form Builder, that means, after clicking on "Form Builder" in the Portal, a pop-up opens, but the XML Form Builder does not load.
    Can you help me?

  • Urgent - XML Form Builder - lnode

    Hi,
    Strange behaviour, i created a new XML Form Project and have defined a schema with some nodes (day, month, year, lead, body, link under root node), for data schema.
    I build the Edit form and run it, everything works fine until push save button, when i do this, i get an error message saying that "..star-tag link different from end-tag root...".
    I made some changes until i find that by simple removing the node link from data schema, everythings works fine, if put it again, gives the same error message.
    Is there any limitation of using a node link, under root node of data schema? Any one tried?
    EP6 SP11.
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

    Hi Darin,
    Changing the node name link to another think, was my first thought, but there are 2 issues:
    - What's the reason why a node named link doesn't work?(Looks like a "bug")
    - I have upgraded the portal from SR1 SP09 to SP11, and in SP09 i have already created some items with XML Form with this structure, and because of the upgrade, i have already to change all the XML Forms, because listShow and listEdit doesn't work anymore, and now, for some strange reason i can't see my old news, because doesn't accept de node named link and i can't rename the node named link, because this means that i have to re-save all old news items.
    Other think is, all XML Forms, incluind the standards ones, HTML editor are not working, clicking on any option available(Bold, Italic, ...), gives a message saying "[Object required]".
    If you get another thought on this, please tell me.
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

    Hi Leah,
    Have you tried double clicking?
    If this doesn't solve the issue, you might want to try using a different version of the browser and disable the pop up blocker on your browser.
    Please try this out and let me know.

  • Xml form builder- DataSchema not expanding

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing a strange issue in XML form builder.
    When i am trying to expand DataSchema root node by clicking on the + sysmbol. It is not expanding.
    Is there any particular setting or what for this. I have tried this many time but unable to expand data Scheme and not able to create any nodes under DataSchema.
    Please help me in resolving this issue.

    Hello,
    Immediately after opening the XML forms editor from the Content Manager page, you will get a link Start Environment Check Tool.... Click on that and proceed for a check. It will take some 5-10 mins based on your connection speed.If every thing is successful, clear the browser cache and restart the browser and open forms editor again. It will open the data schema and properties filed and project browser and all.
    I was having this problem just now and i resolved it with the above steps.
    My JRE version is 1.6 and portal is EP 7 SPS 21 patched.

  • Problem saving XML Forms builder project

    Hello,
    I have extended my xml forms project with some functionalities and now I'm not able to save and generate it. When I'm trying to save the project saving process stops while saving 'GUIModel-Internal.xml'  which is quite big file (~4MB). I can't find the reason which cause that.
    I would be grateful for any ideas.
    Best Regards,
    Michal Maciejewski

    Hi Fallon,
    It was typicall extension with normal changes within the XML Forms Builder. I've added some nodes in Data Schema and then create some controls on Edit and Show form which I connected with the newly created nodes. I know that custom changes in .xsl file will be erased after opening and saving the project within the XML Forms Builder so I'm trying no to do that. Have you got any idea why the project is not saving properly? Is it possilbe that XML Forms Builder could damage some files of my project while saving? After several tries of saving Show form could not be load while opening project. It's quite urgent for me to find solution or cause of this issue.
    Regards,
    Michal

  • Nested XML Forms

    Hi,
    I'm using the XML Forms Builder to try to create a "How-To" iView where some content managers would be able to update information in a standard form that would be later on displayed to the users.
    I'm able to do this in form of a "News" publishing, with the Edit, Show and RenderListItem forms and using the NewsExplorer and NewsBrowser iViews. However, the requirement here is that we have a kind of nested forms: each How-To item would have a series of "steps" that would be added one by one, in the same way that the original items are added.
    So, in the first screen, the content manager would click on "New How-To" and would be taken to the creation of a How-To where he/she would input a title, date, author and some other information. In this screen, he/she would then be able to click on "New Step" where he/she would input one image and the text for that step, and click on Save. Then he/she would be taken back to the How-To creation screen, and would have the option to create another step or to save the How-To.
    After saving the How-To, it would appear on the original list (RenderListItem form) for the user to click. When clicking on the How-To, the "Show" form would display a list of the steps for that particular How-To, in the same way the RenderListItem form does for the list of How-Tos.
    Do you know if (and how) it is possible to do?
    Thank you,
    Daniel

    Patricio,
    I need to add another kind of functionality to XML forms. My client wants to make an upload of an attached file in one click.
    In other words, doesn't want to need to first make the upload to KM and after make the link in the XML Form.
    Can you give me any idea in order to accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance
    Patricio

    Regards,

    Hi,
    is it always the same checkbox that is already filled in? Is this ckeckbox based on a metadata-definition?
    If yes: You could maybe have a look at the metadata-definition. Is there maybe a default-value defined?

  • Help needed in XML Form Builder

    Hi All,
    I require your help in XML form .

    user id and date in the respective field when the form is opened.

    How can i get it .

    Which environment are you trying this in ? In Enterprise server, bursting is defined by a SQL query which can be run against the table that you want. So you can even populate the printer name from your query. So the URI, ipp://myprintserver:631/printers/printername" is the syntax. In your case you have to create this string in your SQL query by concatenating the parts "ipp://" + printername + ":631/". If there is a name to the printer in the printserver, then that too can be concatenated.
    In case this is in EBS , the same has to be done in the control file.
