Hello Devs,
I have been trying to figure if there is a possibility of adding
HTML forms
(UI to obtain input from users) to Xwiki as part of the application
we are trying to build. I know that XWiki pages can be edited to
include HTML code in them. But, I guess my question is where should
we be looking in the code to see how the data that goes into the
form fields as user input, would be processed by the XWiki Core? Has
anyone done this before ?
Yes, I wrote a simple application in such manner.
Just <form > and javascript inside xwiki (inside {pre} {/pre} tags)
Javascript can use prototype js library, bundled with xwiki
form parameters can be retrieved with $request.getParameter()
also it is possible do request redirects.
Also, if we wanted to create tandard UI in XWiki, would it be a better
option to create a template (.vm) file for this purpose?
We also looked at creating Classes and Objects for this purpose but,
I am not sure if thats the option we need to choose.
What would be the best way to accomplish this task?
Thanks for all help.
