Custom Controls

Since bug 289434 landed we now support custom controls for some of our XForms control. Very much still work in progress, but I’ve started some documentation of it (including a small example) on the Mozilla Developer Wiki.

I’m back for a short week :)

Checked In

• The widget patch finally made it through. Great work from Andrew and Olli! This means that you can now create your own custom widgets for xforms controls (in f.x. SVG if you like).. There’s a link to an example on the bug, which is the best documentation until we get some documentation for it. (bug 289434)
• <itemset> now works for external instances too (bug 293597)
• You can now whitelist hosts so you can submit to other hosts than the form is loaded from. The preference is in the “Preferences” dialog under “Content” (bug 284519)
• Fixed xforms-model-construct-done processing and support lazy authoring (bug 294441)
• Doron’s giant schema patch finally made it through too. Cool! (bug 223097).
• We now support the xforms schema datatypes (bug 278447)
• We now support the includenamespaceprefixes attribute for <submission> (bug 268285)
