Is there a system or framework for non-programmer form creation? - sluggyllydipl - 07-20-2023

Anyone know of a system or framework for a non-programmer form creation? Not a full implementation, but something that handles the designer aspect and something that handles the displaying for being filled in. All the logic we'll be doing. Maybe just a pair of widgets.

We've got a client-server application into which normal users enter and modify data in a thick client and we want to allow the customers to update and create forms with another thick client application, rather than calling us every time they need a letter changed. We want something to do the display bits while we implement the various hooks and functions the system uses.

We're a java shop, but we expect that we're open to writing these clients in another language if it'll be easier.

Try searching for XForms libraries and tools. XForms is a new-ish standard format for defining forms and there are some libraries and tools available for it. Haven't tried any of these myself.

EDIT:
This looks interesting: [

Well, you're a Java shop so this might not be the best tool for you, but from you description you look like a classic case for Infopath:

Possibly Xopus with a schema for the XForm could work.

Hi,

I can build one that asks for data input and give you the source. Is quite easy, just take some time.

Take a look here...
