Use XForms now with XMLForm
Remember XForms (the next generation of HTML Forms)? How about XMLForm? From their homepage:
This is a standalone servlet toolkit inspired by Apache Struts / JavaServer Faces and W3C XForms.
The toolkit is derived from Apache Cocoon and a best effort will be made to maintain the features in sync with the Cocoon module.
For an introduction to the concepts, see:
XML Forms, Web Services and Apache Cocoon
XMLForm uses W3C XForms based markup and automated server-side binding to
JavaBeans,
XML/DOM,
JDOM and
DynaBeans
data models.
It also allows easy deployment of
REST style
Web Services,
with maximum code reuse between human facing and machine interfaces.
Wow! Sounds very cool. Thanks to Vic for the link.
