XForms Status Update

Checked In

• Nodes of type xsd:decimal in ]-1;1[ interval are invalid (bug 304968)

• Schema Validation returns an error for empty values, which is wrong (bug 312231)

• Handle changes to the src attribute of the <instance> element (bug 308986)

• When we moved <hint>/<alert> for the other controls we forgot <output> (bug 308455)

• Fix <submission> for empty nodesets (bug 292710)

• Fix for repeat-index for nested repeats (bug 302918)

• Inner repeats should initialize to startindex on update (bug 301998)

• <select> did not initialize via bound node (bug 308689)

• Error dialog should have “open javascript console” link (bug 309246)

• Force instance data content-type to application/xml. This fixes responses from ASP.NET V2 web services (bug 308439)

• <label> bound to model doesn’t work for <choices> inside of <select> (bug 311019)

In Progress

• Native XForms controls for XUL (bug 307627)

• Fix repeat-index on insert/delete (bug 282828)

• Render <repeat> as a table (no bug yet)

• Support <copy> (bug 279063)

• Extend model interface to enumerate over <instance> documents (bug 307093)

• Revise the custom control interface (bug 306764)

• Implement rest of <upload> (bug 275453)

• Support :read-only and :read-write pseudoclasses. Possibly as :-moz-read-only and :-moz-read-write. I really hope this makes it in. (bug 302188)
