Validations in XML forms

Hi
I am working with XML Formbuilder and I am stuck at validating the inputs entered,which includes-
1.Validating an input field against special characters
2.Text area for length
3. HTML Editor-mandatory,length restriction, and only string values.
4.Browser field for documents for type only .doc
5.Creating a checkbox group where atleast one checkbox should be checked
I tried with Data Schema pattern matching,but no luck.
Can these valdations be done in the Formbuilder or is it necessary to add the script explicitly in the XSL file.If XSL is the case, please help me in that.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Swetha

  • XML Form Builder Date validation

    Hi,
    I have an news application to be developed in XML Form Builder. I am creating News Author part of it. It has an Date field where i have to do an validation like the user cannot enter date less than the current date. I can perform simple data type validation through the form builder. Can I perform the above said validation in XML form builder or is there an work around in getting this done.
    Thanks in advance....

    I guess XML Forms builder is not able to do this. You will need to create your own predefined properties for the dates and develop a metadata extension to check that the date is the correct range.

    hi,
    I opened the schema of  this particular application in the KM. I edited the tag for the particular application and included my restriction, so that the validation could occur. I did the same for string field in restricting the no of characters and found to be sucessful. But the same doesnt work for date field...
    The tag goes like this
    <element name="ExpiryDate" default="" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="date" ns="default"><simpleType><restriction base="date"><minInclusive value="01/01/2009"/></restriction></simpleType></element>
    Usually you dont have this restriction.....I have added the tag in bold.....But still validation doesnt occur.....What is the format in which date is stored????
    The same worked for string field as shown below. I can restrict the entry to just 5 characters depending upon the restriction, I make in the schema.....
    element name="Courtesy" default="" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="string" ns="default"><simpleType><restriction base="string"><maxLength value="5"/></restriction></simpleType></element>
    How can i apply the same to date field???
    Any inputs from Consultants worked in Form Builder??
    Thanks & Regards,

  • XML Forms :   Set ' Valid from '& 'Valid to' dates.

    Hi,
    I have created two fields in xml form for time based publishing & used "Lifetime" property for it .
    With this , for first field "Valid From" i can set default value as current date by use of  $locDate.
    i.e.      "Valid From" = current date ($locDate)
    And  for second field i.e. "Valid To" suggest me any solution to set default value as  "current date + 7 days"
    i.e.
               "Valid To"  = current date + 7 days  
    If any body have any kind of solution on this, please provide.
    Thanks ,
    Vishal

    Hi Vishal,
    did you find a solution for this? I am facing the same problem.
    I was thinking about editing the XSL-Stylesheet for the form but didn't find the appropiate code for adding X days to the current date.
    Thanks!

    define key and corresponding error message to key in this ApplicationResources i.e
    #Error Resources

  • XML Forms. Add a timestamp field

    Hi all
    I have a XML Forms project. I have included the valid from and valid until values and have tbs working.
    Appart from this I want to insert in my form another Timestamp field.
    In the datamodel I can´t create an entry of type timestamp, only date or time.
    If I create it date and bind it to a timestamp reaader object from the toolbar I receive an error requesting to have a timestamp type of data binded to it.
    Any help to do this?
    Let me know if you need more info.
    Regards
    Fernando

    Hi Kevin,
    there is no possibility to provide default values or vairable values for date and time properties in KM.
    The only thing you can specify is the format:
    <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/42/e646150fbc3ee6e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/42/e646150fbc3ee6e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm</a>
    One thing you could do is modify the xsl file and use some additional programming to fill the date whith the values you like.
    But in the standard it is not possible.
    Not only for XML forms, but in general for KM properties this is not possible...

  • Show lifetime in xml forms?

    Hi ,
    I have  created forms for News using XML Form Builder.I have also put the ValidFrom and ValidTo Fields on my Edit form for the News Authir to set Life Time for the news he will create.
    The Properties value for both ValidFrom and ValidTo Fields is as follows :
    ValidFrom : /Properties/tbp:VALIDFROM
    ValidTo : /Properties/tbp:VALIDTO
    I have enable time-based publishing for my folder where these forms/news is being saved.
    But the time-based publishing is not working.
    I even tried setting properties in Details -> Lifetime for the news craeted directly but its not working.
    I am using EP6 SP14.
    Wht could be going wrong.
    Pls help.
    Regards
    Saurabh

    hi Patricio,
    In Content Management,I have created a folder "abc" under the repository "document".This folder will hold the xml files created for the news items.
    The document repository is predefined and has been assigned the Repository Service "tbp".
    i have enabled the time-bound publishing for the folder "abc" in its Detail section.
    For the news reader , I have made the folder "abc" as "read only".
    But the news reader is not able to see the news.
    My xml form for the news Author has fields for entering date and time for both "Valid from" and "Valid To".
    On saving the news item ,i can actually see these values in the property "LifeTime" of the news document that has been created.
    I even set these ValidTo and ValidFrom at the "LifeTime" property also.
    But nothing is working.
    Also could u pls elaborate on ur statement :
    "time-dependent publishing service requires the application property service."
    Nothing is working for  me.
    Pls help.
    Regards
    Saurabh

  • Lifetime in xml forms - final users cannot see available docs

    Hi, I have a News xml forms project integrated with Approval process, and I want to integrate lifetime too.
    1) How do I to enable Lifetime??
    What I did is the following: I`ve enabled Lifetime in the folder containing the docs, and I setup manually the validto and validfrom properties (Details->Settings->Properties->Lifetime) of every doc, and the only people who can see the docs are those that have write permission on the folder (and myself too).
    I´ve read a lots of forums and I did everything that they say but successless.
    Could anybody help me??
    Well, Thanks in advance!!
    Marcelo
    ps: I didnt forget to publish every doc after I modified the valid to/from properties.   ideas?

    Hola Juan
    In my case, i had no CM System selected on Task Scheduler.
    So check System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Global Services -> Scheduler Tasks -> Check valid from -> TimeBasePublishingPublish
    (idem for Check valid until -> TimeBasePublishingUnpublish)
    At that point, you must check if you have selected any CM System, if not, select one. Help Sap says that that field is optional...but, well, as you can see, I had no cm system selected, and after I selected one, the lifetime began working very well.
    check <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/d1/5b6635f5e0ef428fb513336881679b/frameset.htm">Scheduler Tasks for Time-Dependent Publishing</a>
    Hope it helps!!

  • Error when creating new XML-Form

    Hi everybody!
    We are using XML-Forms to create/edit/display FAQs out of the KM-Content. We have created our own XMLForms for that and it worked fine. After our last upgrade (NW 7.0 SP-Stack 16) we have the following problem:
    clicking the "new FAQ" link in the portalruntime doesn't start the XML-Form anymore but displays an java error:
    java.lang.RuntimeException: Context is unavailable!

    to me it seems that the creation-context is somehow not valid. But what does that mean? and what can I do about it?

    I think this thread might help you as it helped me, and it is the exact same error that you get

  • Custom Actions in XML Forms Builder

    Hello everyone,
    We are starting a project to replace our current intranet with Enterprise Portal + KM + Collaboration.  Our current intranet has many interactive foms developed as ASP pages for doing thinks like requesting new user ID's etc.  These forms are attached to a workflow engine (Ultimus) where they trigger various workflow processes.  I am exploring wherther or not these existing ASP based forms can be replaced by XML forms developed on the form builder.
    Can XML forms be developed that trigger external actions like generatating a workflow?  I have not found anything in the documentation so far that would indicate how this is accomplished?
    Thanks,
    -Matt Schababerle

    Thank you Detlev, that is what Im looking for. 
    I knew that XML forms are primarily for document creation.  I'm just trying to think 'out of the box' and find a way to convert all the ASP forms we have to a standard, portal-based format.
    The forms I am reviewing are mostly simple pages that would basically validate and save the form data, then kick off a single workflow task. For existing forms, we will utilize URL iViews and link to the existing form.
    For new forms, it sounds like we could probably make the XML forms builder work, but would probably be better off just creating basic .jsp or web dynpro pages to handle the data validation and external workflow submission.  What do you think?
    Thanks for your help!
    -Matt
